Erasing Nick Mohammed's reflection from water because he's dressed as Dracula is one of my favorite recurring bits the show has ever done.

i think one of my favourite things about house md is that we all call him hate crimes md and malpractice md but like

there's a point where the show veers suddenly into war crimes md, and the funniest fucking thing about it is that it's not even house

this is going to sound silly but it isn't silly, and I'm seriously saying this. I do think there is a slight feminist concern to alien abduction stories in so far as we can assume that when people, especially women, talk about their abductions and their abilities to communicate with extra terrestrials et cetera, they are someone who is mentally unwell and who has likely experienced something traumatic. alien abduction stories tend to have common elements even if there are details wildly different from each individual. those details are different because they likely didn't happen, but the common elements tend to be things like being taken from home, being violated, being exposed, having things implanted in the body, experiencing pregnancy, having secret knowledge, having a special connection to the extra terrestrials...

you can start putting some pieces together. yes, sometimes these elements are shared because they are what's heard in pop culture. you're more likely to imagine the details of a book you read or a tv show you saw than come up with something so fantastically new and original. you can imagine, for example, if someone is a say a seven year old girl being manipulated into sexual favors by a trusted adult and doesn't understand what's happening to her and has seen alien media and perhaps even has other messaging around her wrt sin, purity, worthiness, karma (what have you), and also perhaps is predisposed to mental illness, it's easier to believe she's a special person being abducted by other worldly creatures who don't truly mean her harm. you can see how a vivid child's imagination could lead to an adult believing memories that never happened.

and so the feminist concern is to not treat these stories as complete jokes and hoaxes and roll our eyes. I'm just reminded today of something I saw years ago. I think it was a Penn and Teller Bullshit episode on aliens, and they had a group of hard core believers talking about their experiences with aliens, and it felt like we were supposed to be laughing at them when at least one of them was a woman who truly believed an alien husband took her way sometimes and forced her to give birth and she had several children she didn't get to see in space, and she was clearly not very well adjusted socially. all I could think was is this a woman who's been raped? is this a woman who has been forced to have abortions? is this a woman who has had multiple miscarriages? is this a woman experiencing domestic abuse from a husband or boyfriend? but the episode wasn't interested in exploring that, and she stuck out as "one of these things is not like the others" when juxtaposed to fake professors trying to sell their weirdo books as a living or whatever else was in the episode.

when we say believe women, that includes "crazy" women. women who say ghosts are trying to kill them, who talk about people living in their walls coming out at night to steal their body parts, women who believe they are married to alien overlords since they were 12 and have birth 50 alien babies. these women are probably telling us something and I think we can say "I believe something has happened to you" rather than make a mockery of them.

i think ive been so enamoured with tragedy and unhappy endings recently because it's so common for us to take comfort in the idea that we're okay because we will be okay, you know, the whole "it'll be okay in the end and if it's not okay it's not the end" type thing, this desire to put our faith in things turning out eventually, and that's why people sometimes get upset if something doesn't have a happy ending that gives them closure. but i honestly think there's something equally or even more comforting in having to cope with the fact that in reality the happy ending can't always be counted on. in trying to accept that fact, you're sort of forced to find your comfort and meaning elsewhere, which is what tragedy is asking you to do. if you know a story is going to end badly, can you still invest in it? can you survive it for as long as you're asked to? because then you have to concede that the things that happen and the lessons you learn during the story still are meaningful and fulfilling even if they don't culminate. if the story is unfinished and the threads are loose and you don't get closure, can you still find a way to let this frustrating and unfinished experience mean something to you? you kind of have to. can you be okay with it if you aren't able to believe that things will be okay in the end? without looking forward, can you be okay right now

Blake: Um... Ruby? What are you doing?

Ruby: (Ear pressed to door) Well, I WAS going to see if Jaune was in his room, but then I started hearing-

Yang: (Muffled through door, Panting) WHAT?! AGAIN?! You're crazy! I can't...

Jaune: (Muffled through door, Huffing) Are you getting tired, Yang? Is it time for your nap already?

Yang: WHY YOU-!

Yang: (Groaning) COME AT ME, VOMIT BOY!

Jaune: (Grunting) Yes- YES~! That's it!

Yang: N-NO~! (Growls)

Jaune: (Thumping)

Blake: Y-Yang? Oh... my... We should... give them some privacy...

Ruby: Should we let them know we heard them?

Blake: We should just leave. I'd rather now make things anymore awkward than they already are...

--------------------------------------------------

MEANWHILE... INSIDE JAUNE'S ROOM

Jaune: (Arm-wrestling) You won the first round or two, but you don't have any stamina left, Yang! You're gonna have to work on your cardio before-

Yang: SHUT UP! I'M ALMOST THERE!

Jaune: (Chuckles) Keep talkin', Yang~.

Fun fact: in ice hockey, scoring four goals in one game is called a "dick trick" because during a discussion of the propriety of a teammate's celebration of such a game, San Jose Sharks forward "Jumbo" Joe Thornton said this: "I'd have my cock out if I scored four goals. I'd have my cock out, stroking it."

This is an extremely fun fact!

[ruushes]

probably not going to watch iwtv but LOVE having iwtv mutuals bc seeing ppl talk abt it is like getting secondhand gossip on the insane drama in your friend-of-a-friend’s toxic polycule and it’s literally just the canon events of the show, like as far as i can tell the show is just like that, also assad zaman may be the most beautiful man alive

[infamous-if]

The Q&As actually make me like Cory a lot more lol she’s such a shit disturber. The fact that she basically forces the cast to confront their issues also helps

hahaha! Cory has worked with so many dysfunctional artists that she sees everything for what it is. It also helps that she really doesn't care about anyone on this cast lol she just wants to get the best show out of all of them, including G

I like that she's okay with being a villain in people's eyes if it means getting what she wants lol

Less Boring 40k Demon Prince Ideas than 'Bigger Angrier Chaos Space Marine'

Unspeakably ancient eldar who was one of the decadent hubristic imperial magnates so good at murderogries they caused the birth of Sleanesh, happily sold out the rest of the species

Sisters of Battle canoness/living saint who was actually genociding people for Khorne instead of the Emperor (took multiple campaigns for anyone to notice, very embarrassing)

Demon Prince of Nurgle that literally is a zombie apocalypse plague, their consciousness distributed throughout the Resident Evil/Left4Dead-style horde and monstrous mutatioons

A Sauron-among-the-Numenoreans disciple of Tzeetch, appears as a normal looking charismatic savant genius who shows up and givens a world's leaders everything they need to start a glorious new golden age (eventual rebellion and/or disastrous collapse can be assumed)

Corrupted machine spirit of a titan (with bonus entire crew of the titan still eternally bound within it)

Just like, any aliens tbh.
