#wednesday#wednesday addams#bianca barclay#divina#enid sinclair#yoko tanaka#wenclair#comics#ad23#i was planning to draw enid's reflection on yoko's glass but i got lazy#for I don't know what reason in middle school my math teacher went on a long tirade of how a proper hand kiss is done#and how much historically inaccurate some movie were on the matter

#also at this point I'm skeptical of journalists talking about employment challenges and using media and journalism employment#as the basis for their argument because it's not representative and often an example of the most vocal not being the most reflective#are there issues with employment and people getting jobs and retaining jobs? of course - that's not been eliminated#but we are in historically and incredibly positive employment conditions

56 Years Ago TODAY, MLK was ASSASSINATED. He didn't just die, he was KILLED. MURDERED.
The assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on April 4, 1968, plunged the nation into a vortex of grief, rage, and reflection. Cities across the United States erupted in flames, as the pent-up frustrations of generations burst forth in of protests and riots. The fabric of American society seemed to unravel, thread by thread, as the Black community, and much of America, grappled with the magnitude of their loss and the injustices that remained. In this turmoil, James Baldwin captured the essence of the nation's psyche: “The atmosphere was black, with a tension indescribable—as though something, perhaps the heavens, perhaps the earth, might crack.” (x)

thinking about how IWTV loves to play with the theme of master and servant. thinking especially about that “yes, maître” and how armand’s first appearance onscreen, for almost the entire duration of s1, is in the role of louis’s “rashid.” thinking about how, when I first watched s1, it jarred me a little to see the authoritative, almost imperious way louis spoke to “rashid,” even after having endured to lestat’s tyranny himself, not to mention the tyranny of white people. it jarred me even more to realize that that had actually been armand—the ostensible love of his life—taking louis’s orders, bowing his head, saying things like, “I serve a god.” was that a strange and uncomfortable performance for the ancient leader of the paris coven? or was it perfectly natural for someone whose past means he defaults to the role of the subordinate, the submissive, the servant? is the relationship between the master louis and the servant rashid in fact the truest, rawest representation of the core dynamic between louis and armand?
#you really have to wonder: why was louis so comfortable ordering armand around?#why was the first disguise that occurred to them the role of rashid for armand?#it all feels very reflective of the underlying nature of their relationship#and if so#then armand’s s1 disguise was some masterful (hehe) foreshadowing#also i could write a whole post (or paper) about the many many many ways in which the show explores and toys with the master/servant dynami#and the way it transforms depending on the setting and its historical context#because “master” of course means something very different to louis and claudia when they’re in new orleans#god. this show#THIS SHOW#interview with the vampire#iwtv#iwtv s2#iwtv s2 spoilers#louis de pointe du lac#the vampire armand#loumand
