Something I never got about Strangers is how some people interpreted it to be entirely about cannibalism and Isaiah? On my first listen, when I didn't know the story behind it, I always thought it was about ethel's mother, Willoughby, and the town she grew up in over anything. She feels like a disappointment, like she made it out of town but never truly left. When she asks 'am I feeling you sick' I believe it is a broader sentiment. Does her situation make her mother feel sick? Does the way she turned out make Willoughby, where ever he is, feel sick? Does her story, the haunting nature of it, make the town sick? Are they disgusted by her? Does she keep them from sleeping? Of course cannibalism is a huge part of strangers, but there's also so much more to it that's hidden beneath the surface. Isaiah is not the only aspect of ethel's story. She is more than Isaiah.

Kelvin au lore whatever whatever

The sotf fandom on tumblr is so dead like it’s literally nonexistent and it makes me sad

Ty @mothercain for the sexy song that is definitely 100% not about cannibalism that I can use for a drawing about a game that is also 100% not about cannibalism

“Am I making you feel sick?”

[souvlakicocaine]

I was thinking about Strangers today and how Ethel being digested in Isiah’s stomach parallels her in her mother’s womb as the beginning and end of her life giving “am I making you feel sick” a double meaning when it comes to pregnancy sickness and desperately not wanting to burden your mother vs wanting male approval plus general people pleasing and how the whole song can just be a metaphor for mommy issues if you want it to be. Especially since she addresses her mama at the end of the song. Ethel Cain is genius.

"cannibalism as a metaphor for love!" what about cannibalism as a metaphor for obsession. You are such an important facet in my mind and life it is impossible to do anything without you. My obsession runs so far and so deep that I must consume you.

Just saw the “It Ends With Us” trailer with Ethel Cain’s “Strangers” in it. I fear my face will never fall from the grimace it was put in upon viewing that.

Ethel Cain being used in the It Ends With Us movie trailer is my villain origin story!
