reading a romance novel where the protagonist feels the need to stop and inform that audience that it's okay for her, a 27 year old, to hook up with a 31 year old because despite the age difference both of their brains are fully developed. the Discourse really has done incalculable damage.

I think if Penelope had committed to the "Move the Tree Bed" bit for like two seconds longer Odysseus would have fully just killed himself

If anyone is âabusingâ and âgroomingâ Ellen in this story itâs 19th century society, not the demon whoâs archetypal Death and metaphorically her sexual freedom (like pretty much every demon in the Gothic genre). These characters are archetypes, which is something Robert Eggers is very fond of. Also these takes of âchild abuseâ tells me you saw this movie and understood nothing.
came across this in the Nosferatu tags and idk man maybe i'm fucking stupid because i don't agree with the above take đ
âlike pretty much every demon in the gothic genreâ oh, okay so this person just has no fucking idea what theyâre talking about
all these mental gymnastics happening because people are too terrified to admit to themselves that they thought the dynamic between a rapist and a victim was hot lmao
itâs really funny though because there are some incredibly straightforward ways to portray society and its stifling norms as the main point of conflict and a monster as representation for sexual desire and liberation. thatâs not how to do it. like if someone wanted to purely write a story like that, and then they ended up with the nosferatu script⊠then theyâve failed spectacularly!
idk if you want a story about a romanticized vampire lover go watch 1992 dracula, itâs literally that simple

âcold showers are actually much better for youâ I donât care if they gave me the power to manipulate time. you can pry scorching hot showers out of my dead hands. and even if I got time manipulation powers I would just use them to take more hot showers. btw

"Yes, Riddle was perfectly ready to believe he was - to use his word - 'special,' " said Dumbledore.
-- Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
I know that he's trying to imply here that Riddle already had budding megalomaniacal tendencies. But come ON. His powers were highly developed. He could move things with his mind. It's not unreasonable for him to conclude that he is special and can do things others cannot; that's just the literal truth. Also, I'd like to point out that Riddle actually first says "I knew I was different." But I guess Dumbledore wants to skip over that bit.
And over the implications. Riddle is, as far as he knows, the only person who can do what he does. He knows nothing about the magical world or what he is. For all he knows he really is haunted or possessed by a demon or something. Part of him must have wondered if he really was mad and imagining it all. His initial, violently fearful and aggressive reaction to Dumbledore when he thinks he's a doctor certainly is very telling and has a lot of implications about the treatment he's experienced during his first 11 years of life.

Mistakenly touched my weenor after crushing up a chili pepper for my Ramen honestly not as painful as one would expect more of a gentle heat much like the pleasant burn of cayenne in a spiced coffee or even much like . A chili crushed up in a bowl of delicious Ramen. Much food for thought

I know everyoneâs joking about Telemachus changing into his warrior of the mind outfit the second he got back to Ithaca, but I solely believe it was a magical girl transformation. I believe he clapped his hands, said âfor the honor of Athena!â or something like that, and did a dramatic, sparkly transformation before charging off to go murder the suitors
