#i knew abt thanksgiving

[ishparpuaqib]

an unfortunate side effect of modern american nationalism being entirely downstream from the american civil war is that there's roughly a 100% chance all displays of american patriotism sponsored by the federal government, reviled as they might be for being symptomatic of the totalitarian fascist rot inherent to the american social fabric or whatever, trace their origin to that one time the united states torched half its territory (ostensibly, and certainly as far as those most likely to show distaste for e.g. thanksgiving or the pledge of allegiance r concerned) in the name of Ending Slavery

AITA for being friends with someone my roommate didnt like?

ok this might be long but here we go. Last semester I had a roommate who I liked pretty well, and we had a mutual friend, H. At some point, roomie got mad at h because h had apparently outed someone as schizophrenic.

H is not exactly anti-weed, but she is very adamantly against it for herself and anyone else at risk of psychological complications from it. My roomie was smoking with someone who h knew to be schizophrenic, so h told the group that they were smoking with about her concerns. I don't really agree with the way h went about this, but I'm ashamed to admit I sort of forgot to bring it up with her.

Later, h told me that roomie was avoiding her, and we talked about her possibly apologizing and why it was something roomie was particularly sensitive to.

[I'm afraid there's something missing here, maybe something more that I did to drive roomie away. I dunno.]

Roomie began to avoid both of us, but I didn't realize that it was on purpose and I was probably forcing myself into conversations with them because of that. Eventually, roomie started to move out of our room without telling me. Somewhere towards the beginning of this, a mutual friend? of ours made a joke about them looking for a new roommate. I asked why their books were all packed up, they told me it was because they'd be taking them home for thanksgiving. I thought ok, sounds like a lie, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. I truly had no idea why they would be moving out. I gradually went a little crazy watching them sleep in another room and pack all their stuff up, all the while saying nothing to me about it. I finally asked them about it, and they told me yes, they were moving out. Problem is though I think they might've been upset about something already when I asked about it? But they said they were fine so I accepted that as the truth. Again, I dunno. I think I was rude during this interaction but sadly can't remember anything I said besides yelling maybe the start of a sentence and then cutting myself off.

They moved out the next morning. I offered to help, they asked me not to. I was really upset and, stupidly, decided to take it up with them. That evening when I asked if we could talk, they openly rolled their eyes at me. I know it's stupid and probably the most asshole-y thing in this ask, but that drove me crazy. I said some shit, I don't remember what, but part of it was that I was "disappointed" in them. I don't know what that was supposed to be but it was NOT what I wanted to say. They, understandably, were really mad. I left and, too soon, texted them an apology. They replied, not rudely, telling me they don't want any contact with me, but also said, and I'll paraphrase, that they knew h had told me some things (probably referring to the possible reasons they moved out) and [my] friend is one of the reasons [they] left because they like to lie. This really hurt me because I still have no idea what this was about.

Later on, I'm not sure how much later, I was talking to h while roomie and their friends were in the next room. h was saying some things about the situation that I thought were a little extreme. I don't totally remember the order of events but it somehow ended up that roomie was yelling at h and they said something about h "creeping on transmasc freshmen." H is a trans woman and a sophomore, we are college students. I have a vague idea of who this might be referring to, if not myself or my roomie, who I don't think identifies as transmasc, but h had led me to believe that things ended amicably with this third party.

Anyways this story doesnt totally fit the aita format but I just needed to write it all out. If you're involved in this story, please know I'm trying not to be mad abt it anymore which is why I'm submitting it here, I'm hoping to be told why i'm TA or NAH.

What are these acronyms?

[seonghwacore]

let me cook. (an unexpectedly thanksgiving full course)

tagging @ye-xiu and @lavandulacosmos idk if you wanna read my brainrot but pls give it a chance im coping so bad 😭

i've read several theories surrounding k.will's mv, which i don't like the ending at all fck u screenwriter. but i noticed this one so let me, boil it to perfection.

my theory abt the wristwatch in "no sad song for my broken heart" is more simple yet symbolic. it didn't imply time travel or a scifi plot but more of the story's timeline? i assume, the wristwatch in the mv wasn't functioning as an individual's possession but more like a way to tell us when their time stopped. like, how our life stopped in 2019 for some of us?

in the beginning of the mv, the scene showed a broken wristwatch with the year function set to number "12" and the hands pointing to "10:11". the hand was clearly inguk's.

while i know this is please, don't mv release date, as the please don't mv enjoyers, i immediately understood that this was when inguk's time stopped. when jaehyun married dasom in the mv, he knew there'd be no more chance for him to pursue jaehyun or even simply, to tell him his true feelings. he drove away silently back then, not saying a word. this is why his time stopped in 2012.

meanwhile, at the end of the mv, the scene showed that the wristwatch was perfectly fine, no scratch, was brand new, and was encircling jaehyun's wrist instead. the year was "24" and the watch's hands were pointing at 06:20. WHICH WAS, YESTERDAY IN MY TIME OR STILL TODAY IN THE OTHER PART OF THE WORLD.

again, that was a symbol to the mv's release date. BUT WHOSE TIME ALSO ENDED THAT DAY?

HIM.

"then it's just symbolizing inguk's end of time then 🤨" well, whose hand was that wristwatch on? it's on jaehyun's wrist. following the logic from the first scene, then it's most possible that the wristwatch symbolized jaehyun's "time". tragically, jaehyun seemed to understand his feelings towards the other man very much later. he had no time to fully develop and understand his feelings towards inguk and of course, a chance to be with him.

(gahd i planned to stop here but i was seeing everything suddenly)

the row of happy scenes, to me, was more like his delusion and regrets. things he could and would do if only inguk reconnected with him. im not sure tho how he finally realized his feelings but MAYBE, this was the reason of his "mv divorce". maybe, they were still in contact but was obviously limited. in another universe, we'd get the answer, guys.

exhibit #1: he would stay connected with inguk, shown by this exchanging number scene. literally fck u scriptwriters for making grown ass dude crying

maybe they were just, like, linked in acquaintances just sent e/o happy birthday or congratulate each other for promotions asjdalsd

exhibit #2: he'd want to update him that he's already divorced.

LOOK AT BRO'S SMILE??????? in jaehyun's mind, if he announced the news to inguk, he would've gone full smile like that. and he wanted to see that.

exhibit #3: he'd reconcile, have a hearty conversation with inguk over drinks, reliving their fun bachelor nights and obviously, take care of him.

(maybe this was how inguk died???)

now, this is a bit hard but, exhibit #4: he imagined that they'd go into this awkward, pining moments, wondering if inguk would still have a crush on him.

this part was actually confusing because he opened his eyes, as if he knew something. but what did he know? what did he expect from inguk? or did he begin to realize that this was all just his delusion?

NOW. this is going a bit longer than i thought i didn't mean to do a full analysis gosh but this is even crazier to think about. when inguk said his line, about saying things he couldn't say and whether he could hug him just once. this line is weird tbh but eventually makes sense.

we backtrack to these scenes first.

after getting his phone, jaehyun's calling him to make sure it's the correct number. but why inguk seemed... rather worried? again, following my logic with the wristwatch, the phone was just a symbol. jaehyun was holding onto inguk AND his soul. then, how does this relate to inguk's worried face?

we're entering the afterlife realm.

starting from this scene. there's a belief that butterfly in association with death is a messenger from the passing loved ones. in some k-dramas, noticeably "goblin", butterfly represented gods or the supreme being. the butterfly in this scene symbolized that inguk already passed away. it's his time to go.

however, jaehyun "found" him and even asked for his number. so, when the call "connected" it meant jaehyun had yet, once again, clung on his memories and soul. in some cultures, and again there's a k-drama reference that's "sell your haunted house", sometimes the family of the dying person will be asked to let the person go. in the sell your haunted house, hong jia's refusal to let go of her trauma locked her mother's powerful ghost in her house.

guess who's locked in their "house" as well?

and he's wearing white outfit as well, which is often believed to be your afterlife mandatory outfit color. then inguk "called" jaehyun, in a hope, he could wake jaehyun up and let him go. so, the sequence of happiness began.

so, inguk's expression was rather worried when jaehyun called him instead of overjoyed. because he didn't want jaehyun to be stuck in his regrets and delusion.

now, back to this scene.

this was probably inguk's last straw. the scene reminded me of "it's okay it's love" where jo insung gave do kyungsoo's shoes. the act was done to let go of his hallucination from his childhood trauma.

inguk, telling jaehyun how he actually felt and did it through a physical hug, was like an act of letting go. and he hoped that jaehyun's mind would be more at ease now that jaehyun had known his feelings and jaehyun had understood HIS OWN feelings. he hoped that the hug could finally calm jaehyun's storm so jaehyun could be at peace with his own regrets.

then, inguk proceeded to leave because he had to. leave to the afterlife. but after fighting his own struggle, jaehyun called him again. shouted even.

HE RUSHED BACK but jaehyun was stupefied. and the scene later showed that jaehyun was alone in the tunnel.

my big assumption was inguk rushing back to him was also jaehyun's desired response, that inguk would come back to him every time he called. he did, but i think, inguk's death was related to the tunnel or the train. so, when inguk rushed back to him, the train passed by above him with the alarm sound, and jaehyun woke up from his hallucination alone.

a wilder theory is the train was a symbol that it's time for inguk to really go. it served as a "transportation" to the afterlife. that's why inguk wasn't seen anymore after that.

the rest is history.

kidding, we still have this. this time, the scene showed that jaehyun didn't call inguk.

the road, the terrain, elevating to a certain degree, somehow looked like as if he's going to a higher place. and he's not stopping. he kept going, not turning back. so, that's when jaehyun realized, he really needed to let inguk go and rest in peace.

my madness shall end here.

[imsimplyshee]

So motivated all of a sudden; all my homework is done gonna sleep and hopefully wake up early enough to make pancakes for the family and study for the tests I have next week(also catch up on APUSH reading🥲) and plan my future and actually try making progress on writing, learn what the arabic I've been reading practically my whole life means cuz how I can read Quran but not understand it😭(wish I knew how to add other languages to learn on Duolingo I'd like French on there too and if only they had Yoruba I could brush up my skills), reading(rereading Queen of nothing for 3rd? time🤭), not sure abt working out tho😬, I doubt I'll catch up on skz content I'll leave that for after I've cleared out my watch later playlist on YouTube during thanksgiving break

On an unrelated side note my back hurts worse than usual, low-key think I've got scoliosis(fits the google searched symptoms so well I'm scared😭). The clinic ppl haven't called back, so we can schedule an appointment so im just suffering in silence trying not to complain cuz my parents are like "it's that heavy bag uve always been carrying." Which sure makes the pain worse but I doubt its the cause, according to the most reputable of sources(google) its a growth thing?

[pansy-picnics]

How would the tangled kids react to Varian and Cassandra’s villain arc? Also I love your art 😊

AJDJDJDGG OKAY SO. this is SO fucking good but ive been putting it off for so long bc i wanted to draw something to go with it but i’ve just. never figured out what so inevitably i’m just gonna answer it on its own

this subject in particular is SO FUNNY for me to think about bc i think the kids’ reactions depend a lot on how their parents talk abt it and both of them handle it in COMPLETELY different ways. like uknighted dream is pretty open abt it (obviously they give the incredibly watered down kid-safe version) and they kinda use it as a learning experience? like in very vague terms.

its kinda just like

alina: oh why are you and mama cass fighting in your drawing :(

rapunzel: <:) well yknow how if you shake a bottle of soda, when you open it it explodes everywhere?? well sometimes when we bottle up our feelings and don’t do anything with them or talk to someone we trust, they end up getting all shaken up in there, and eventually theyll explode! mama cass and i used to have a lot of trouble talking about our feelings, and because of all those emotions that got bottled up and shaken around in there, we found it hard to properly communicate with each other at all. but then we realized how much we really cared about each other and how we really wanted to make things work, so we learned to be more honest about how we felt and how to communicate with one another without everything just ‘exploding’, so to speak. and thats why we always teach you how to manage your big emotions, does that make sense? :)

on the other hand VARIAN? literally could not care less. at least not with the ud kids. he still has one of his wanted posters that hugo grabbed as a “souvenir” on their trip, and the automaton he used to fight rapunzel? its still in the corner of his lab and he pulls it apart regularly for scrap metal.

ryder will be wandering around his lab when hes like 7 and hes like “uncle vari whats that”

varian: that’s an automaton buddy

ryder: did you make it?

varian: yeah

ryder: what’s it for

varian: well nothing now it’s just spare parts. but i actually made it a long time ago to fight your mom

ryder: which one

varian: both actually. and technically your dad. but mostly rapunzel

ryder: oh

ryder: did you win?

varian: no it wasnt really that kind of fight. nobody won

ryder: oh that’s boring

ryder: can i try it

varian: absolutely not

when emery comes along though varian is like “okay we are Never addressing this again” bc em thinks varian is SO cool and varian actually cares So much about his newfound image. (very stupid of him for that to be his main priority obviously bc emery is like 4 and if she knew what he did she would probably just be like “okay. can i have apple juice”)

anyways yeah ilmari and the twins don’t really tell her anything either because they don’t really see it as anything worth telling her about, especially in comparison to way more important things like the fact that lance will sometimes sneak you dessert before dinner if you can convince eugene he has a gray hair without him catching on. so obviously emery grows up fairly unaware of anything varian has done but the defining factor is that shes constantly hearing about it out of context and is just left to struggle with that enigma.

like you know the experience of being like 14 years old at the family thanksgiving and you get to sit at the grown ups table for the first time and hear about all their weird beef and inside jokes and also hear your aunt mention out of context that hey your dad went to prison once bc that’s LITERALLY what the tangled kids experience in relation to their parents’ pasts. like the twins forgot about most of what varian told them by the time they grew up, they knew the watered down version of what happened with cass but they never knew the little details right. so they’ll just be hanging out playing checkers together while the adults are sitting across the room chatting over drinks and varian jokes “oh man its just like that one time cass kidnapped me” and all the kids immediately whip their heads around like “WHAT?”

this is ESPECIALLY true with emery who’s parents are notorious for having more insults for each other than pet names. em could just be reading by the fireplace late one night and var and hugo come out for a midnight snack and just start talking like

hugo: sometimes i think maybe objectively we should be evil again. like just for fun

varian: honestly. i took over the kingdom once i could do it again no problem

hugo: you’re probably actually strong enough to do it yourself now 🥺

varian: you want to kiss me so bad it makes you look stupid

emery: ….right so are we just gonna brush over the “again” part or did you guys forget i was here

varian also eventually realizes that by doing this he is replicating EXACTLY how quirin used to be secretive of his own past and how like one day varian just suddenly had to grapple with the knowledge that his dad who baked pies and fed the apple peels to his raccoon probably had a kill count. and obviously varian is absolutely distraught over this revelation

“HUGO HELP ME. I think im becoming my dad” “oh. well hey it happens to all of us it could be worse. besides your dad is hot so like i see it as a win win” “What” “what?”

i should probably also mention that ilmari knew about cass’s villain arc long before they even MET and ilmari actively tries to use this against her when they’re like 13. like “yeah well you cant tell ME what to do i’m gonna tell alina and ryder you tried to stab mom when you were in your 20s” (it doesn’t work btw)

I'm officially transferring to a new location for my job

For a little background, I work in customer service and was hired by the company back in July of last yr and did my training at another location since the one I'm currently at wouldn't open until October.

Training went great. My assistant CS manager was going to be the assistant CS manager at the new location. She was amazing, always on top of things.

When it was time to go to the new store, everything was fine until a few weeks in.

Rude coworkers treating me like I'm incompetent, management telling me things months into my job I should've been told in training. The whole shitty shabang.

2 weeks before Thanksgiving, I put in a time off request that sat there for 2 weeks untouched. I was put on the schedule for the 27th (I hadn't been able to seen the schedule for that week when I put in the request). I didn't do anything abt it because I had faith in management that they would do their jobs and at least look at the request because I couldn't possibly be the only person taking time off for the holiday, especially since my assistant CS manager already knew I was going out of town.

Boy was I wrong.

I received a call 2 hours into the shift that I couldn't be at because I was in a different state asking me if everything was alright since they hadn't seen me. I told them everything was fine and that I was just out of state. I also explained that I had put in a time off request 2 weeks in advance. She tried to tell me that maybe it was denied and I told her no that it was sitting at pending for 2 weeks. I honestly think they didn't notice I wasn't there until I had to do carts.

After that, I wasn't scheduled for a while and received a message of "possible separation" due to the fact that I hadn't worked in a while. Not my fault. I have no control over my schedule. When I called to speak to my assistant CS manager since she was really the only one who gave a damn abt me, I was bluntly told that she had been promoted and didn't there anymore.

Then, when I finally got scheduled again, I met our CS manager. She'd seemed nice enough at the welcome to store thing, but I hadn't seen her since. I was just doing my job and she comes over, asking me if I'd been trained on our carryout service. I say yes. She tells me that if I continue to not ask people if they need help out to their cars, she's gonna send me home. Mind you, the customers that we'd had come through were either big families or decently fit guys who barely had anything. So, out of fear that I was still being watched (I was on the complete opposite side of the store from her when she came over) and would be sent home, I asked EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. who came through the line if they needed help out. And guess what? People laughed at me. You know why? Because it's ludicrous. If they look like they need help, I'll ask, but if it's people who obviously don't, what's the point?

From then on, she continued to treat me like I didn't know what I was doing and today was no different.

Today, I was scheduled from 1:30pm to 5:45pm. I get there, clock in, and she tells me I need to do a store sweep among a billion other things before I had carts in half an hour. So I go get the broom and begin working. Then I get called back to the front to do a pickup order.

By the time I'm finished with that, it's 4 mins into my cart time, so I put up the broom. As I get ready to go do carts, she stops me and asks if I did the store sweep. I say I got through part of it and she asked if i swept the front of the store. I say no because I was called by the girl at the CS desk to do a pick up order. She asks me what time I got there, even though she has schedule papers right in front of her in her hand. I say 1:30. She says ok and leaves and I go do carts.

My mom was shopping at the store during this time and she said whe she was leaving, the CS manager looked as if she was standing guard by the door, like someone was gonna escape.

Everyone I've ever talked to about the company who has also worked there has also had a horrible experience.

i wrote this instead of doing work for finals week. dw abt it

prompt: habit

@galladrabbles @spacerockwriting

read pt.14

Relapse pt. 15

“I shouldn’t need to tell everyone my every habit every time I fuck up. It’s bound to happen. We’ve all got shit. Fuckin’ trauma or whatever. But I’m on top of it. You didn’t have to come all the way over here, Fi. I saw Lip a couple’a weeks ago, and got the weekly thing with Deb and Fran. It’s really. I’m fine. Go home. No, not go home. It’s nice that you’re here. Happy Thanksgiving. Fuck. I’m sorry. I’m fine. Let’s eat. Come on.”

little rant abt grief: thanksgiving felt alittle lonely and empty. no grandma, so that sucked. my grandpa just feels like you can tell he's sad. they're all absolutely dreading Christmas. they aren't going to decorate, and they can't listen to any Christmas music because it makes them too sad. I wish she knew how important she was before she made the choices she did. she refused medical help for so long that by the time she needed it, it was too late. it wouldve been nice to just have her here. she missed her 50th anniversary with my grandpa by just a few months. and she refuses to celebrate Christmas with us last year because she was so bitter about needing the help. I just. wish she wasn't so bitter right before the last week. i just wish I could've. idk. I don't really understand why I'm saying anything anymore

Random HC's for all the Overwatch characters (mostly Mei) that I've been gathering over the last 3 months (starting Sept. 17)

It's just. Exactly what it sounds like. Fluffy, angsty, funny, probably not spicy (I lied-ish, talking abt a dick). We'll see. Gonna try and post this on December 31 for something

(Sept 17) Zenyatta is ticklish as hell. Typically omnics aren't but he got his touch receptors modified, tho I can't decide if Ramattra and Mondatta tricked him into it or he wanted to try it out

(Sept 20) Genji used to have a dick piercing, when he was young and stupid. After Blackwatch he took it out and now there's just a scar.

(Sept. 29) Mei finds a lot of comfort in music box songs her mom had lot when she was young and it helps her sleep.

(Oct 3) Actually on top of the previous hc, Mei can't do silence anymore. She always needs background noise, so usually she keeps her machines in the science ward running when she's actually trying to sleep. Otherwise she puts on music or uses sound generators if it's a bit too quiet on Gibraltar. The only sound that disturbs her more than just silence is wind blowing through the quiet, because it REALLY reminds her of emerging all alone.

(Oct 20) Mei is a Steven Universe girl. Her favorite Gem as a kid was Garnet because she loved her message about self love and how much Sapphire and Ruby loved each other, and she still knows almost all the songs by heart. She got very good at singing because she sang along so much. Also she probably cried when Steven lost his gem then got it back, and when Spinel sang "Drift Away"

(Nov 4) If Mei geeks out to someone, she really really loves and trusts them. Usually it'll be about her tech, climatology, or any show that she's currently watching. She only does this if she's fully comfortable with someone though

(Nov 19) Mei is one of those people who goes ALL OUT for Christmas. If you've seen those tiktok slideshows abt warm Christmases and tacky Christmases and more, she is ALL OF THEM (a little warmer leaning imo). She'll start looking for stuff to buy as soon as Halloween ends but she refrains from actually making anything until Thanksgiving (as request of quite a few OW agents).

(Nov 19) Cassidy either hates pumpkin spice latte's or loves it. No in between. He loves pumpkin pies though!

(Nov 28) Mei genuinely did consider joining Talon instead of Winston's recall in a grief filled moment. However, she immediately remembered her friends and knew they wouldn't want her to go down that path. On top of that, if Mei's struggling with a tough decision, she thinks about what her Ecopoint team would do. She thinks of it as the least she can do considering she believes she was at fault for some of it (even though that's not true).

(Dec 15) Genji has a lot of scuffs on his armor, mostly around his shoulders, although a lot has been buffed and polished out. Most think it's from battle, but a lot of it is actually from Snowball nuzzling him too hard. The same goes for Tokki, Reinhardt, Brigitte, and a few others.

(Dec 15) As a kid and teen, Mei's mom always got her a lot of clothes and she never really got clothes on her own except in the winter time. She'd put buying clothes as a last priority since usually her mother would do that, and it's why she never has a lot of clothes for the summer: she's just still in the habit of putting off clothes shopping.

(Dec 30) Mei would have 100% been a Royale High girl on roblox. You can fight me on this

It's currently almost 1 AM for this on Jan 1st and im posting this now. HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE

[spaydekingcayde]

I don’t even care I was told I was “soap boxing” when I as an indigenous person spoke up abt the premise of thanksgiving im more shocked at how I was told talking about it now was “retard shit” and how actually the settlers weren’t settlers they were refugees escaping British persecution like wow I knew the destiny community had some real Klan members in it but DAMN

[kimsmingyu]

hi Ali! it’s your secret santa again. don’t worry if you can’t reply right away, i hope everything’s good on your end.

we don’t celebrate thanksgiving in my country but we do celebrate christmas and i’m happy to know you do too, it’s one of my favorite holidays.

btw i love your user! is Mingyu your ult bias? what do you like the most abt him?

love, secret santa x

everything is going okay! i'm kind of anticipating next week for thanksgiving so this week is dragging by when usually work flies by for me. how are you doing? has your week been okay?

i love christmas! when i got older, i didn't really care about the presents anymore. i like having my family around and also i moved departments at work last year so i'm looking forward to a second year of fun activites for christmas during work hours. plus i get to decorate my cubicle for the first! do you have any special traditions for christmas?

omg thank you! i was so surprised this url wasn't taken but i'm still striving for the kimmingyu url 😭 he is my ult bias! i like that he's a silly goofy guy but also that when i was getting into seventeen, some carats were making him out to be personality-less because he was hot and knew he was hot so it was really nice that he was just goofy and funny and i like the way he cares about his members. he doesn't take himself seriously even though he's teased all the time... i also really liked he was an aries... 😂

i want to ask your ult bias but if you don't want to tell me it's okay. i feel if i told someone my ult bias was mingyu maybe they'd know i was behind the anon

[satorisoup]

HAPPY B-DAY TO UR EIJIRO 😸 i have a few questions abt the two of you :giggles:

what’s your anniversary?

are you two pet parents?

Oh thats all good i knew there was a fair chance you wouldnt recognize it. Im realizing now i may have misrepresented it a bit mentioning the pop culture thing, it just stood out to me as an interesting directorial choice as someone who doesnt know enough abt theatre to easily recognize those? But it wasnt like trying super hard to be current or anything. They did have in-universe tiktoks play during scene changes but the play itself was definitely more about challenging your perceptions of character interactions. It was pretty loud about its focus on feminism in modernity but not in as stare at the camera way as like say the barbie movie was idk. Idk i liked it and would recommend it but im only just getting into theatre

Yeah like I said I don’t think it sounds horrible, and I am really interested in seeing it and deciding how I feel about it! Like, again, I think The Wolves by Sarah DeLappe (same woman who wrote the film bodies bodies bodies) is brilliant, so I think it’s possible to have an edgy modern play about a group of high school girls be really really great (I am writing one myself right now, actually lol), it’s just a personal palette thing that I usually have a distaste for pop culture references. Like, the tiktok transitions between scenes wouldn’t generally be my thing, but I think it could work well with the right videos, and that reminds me a bit of Larissa Fasthorse’s The Thanksgiving Play and the way she pulled real & fake internet content to use in transition videos between scenes.
