rewatching blood hungry makes me desperate 2 write terrible incomprehensible posts abt cm series 1 + 2 and psychosis/schzospec stuff and spencer <3
#o#i was thinking last week abt the part in imagining autism where the author writes a bit abt spencer in her analysis of the autistic#detective trope and i like tht book and i like and agree w/ a lot of her analysis of the trope and spencer in gen#but she does sort of skim over the schizophrenia stuff#and also i dont agree w/ her attribution of spencer saying 'i know wht its like to be afraid of ur own mind' purely to his autism#whn in the same ep he brings up diana's diagnosis and its still like firmly in tht s1/2 schizo scare story 'arc' lol (altho i dont disagree#entirely as the show often kind of conflates the two and not in like a well resrearched clinical overlap way haha)#but i guess thts also kind of a bigger issue at large in like all non-schizo communities haha#invoking schizospec stuff in any discussion not abt or by the community always gets ppls backs up lol#anyway i just think its interesting 2 see the divide in both the shows narative arnd spencer and like fan/critical interpretation of spence#in regards 2 him being autistic vs being schizospec#(not tht those r mutually exclusive lol thts literally me)#but i just feel like schizophrenia being this looming Threat above his head is such a weird addition 2 a sort of generic#schizo psychos fucked up crime show (my FAVOURITE shcizo psychos fucked up crime show tho fejr)#like its not GOOD but its interesting to me tht they sort of do two types of bad schizo rep at once#and blood hungry is my fav bad psychosis rep cause they do the mandatory 'psychotics r usually less violent thn the average populations <3'#line while also being like 'this guys a fucking PSYCHO' every two seconds fejrfe#and im being serious tht is very funny to me !!!!!!!!!!#blorp ..... anyway#trying 2 be serious abt tv!autism and tv!schizophrenia and tv!psychosis is kind of pointless perhaps haha
