main take aways from Halloween (1978) rewatch:

michael myers is canonically 21??? this bitch should be at the club

*sees tiddies* ***MURDEROUS RAMPAGE NOISES***

that's it that's the movie

outside of the fact that everyone who has sex is murdered by the narrative, this is a surprisingly chill portrayal of female sexuality? these teen girls are horny and actively enjoying Getting It On with their boytoys. no pushy boyfriends sneaking in through their bedroom windows--these ladies are taking the initiative to sneak out and GET SOME. one of them gets laid and then immediately orders her boyfriend to get her a beer. (yes she gets Slashered soon afterward, but so does the boyfriend so honestly, gender equality.) yes the Final Girl is the only one not having sex, but she's not bullied for that, nor are her friends slut shamed except possibly by being murdered by the narrative

actually the only character who is shown being morally condemned on-screen is michael myers. specifically FOR his violent overreaction to other people's sex lives. (people he is spying on). metaphorically, the villain is American Puritanism sticking its judgy nose into other people's business.

aka Michael Myers Is A Republican

but actually the real villain is the doctor. guy's a judgemental, shaming, pathologizing asshole. and he's been in charge of michael's care since he was SIX YEARS OLD? kid never had a chance. i'd go on a killing spree too

also the parents. where are the parents? it's halloween night and all the teenage girls are home babysitting their younger siblings? come to think of it, michael's first victim was his own older sister, whom he killed while she was babysitting him. teen girls are really shouldering a labour burden here. maybe parentification is the true villain

side note: mike commits his first murder wearing a clown costume...which is never referenced again? his 'iconic' costume is a generic mask and wig and jumpsuit, when we coulda had a Killer Clown Michael Myers??? travesty

i like how the Final Girl and her friend casually smoke weed in her car. yeah she's an honor student and her friend is the sheriff's daughter. yeah they smoke weed. so what it's 1978

(to reiterate, mike is 21 and should be at the club. im not saying he shouldn't be rampaging, im saying it's sad that he broke out, tasted freedom for the first time in his life, and immediately snuck back into his childhood home to go rampaging. let's have a remake where he goes to a nightclub and has a few beers. maybe some slutty dancing. then rampage)

oh no he's hot

#HALLOWEEN #halloween the movie #michael myers #do you think he's a mike? mikey? to his friends? if slashers had friends?#i'll be honest i was expecting this movie to be way more of a bitch to its female characters #i mean yeah they died but so did some dudes #there's just a lack of cattiness compared to the way most later movies portrayed teenage girls idk #yeah the Final Girl is a Virgin and a Bookworm. but there's no bullying or any strong sense that's she's morally superior to everyone else #mostly she AND the other girls feel a bit sorry for her lack of a social life. one even tries to set her up with a date to the school dance #solidarity! trying to get your nerd friend laid!#overall it's just teenagers being teenagers and then a slasher comes in and ruins everything with his Lack Of Chill #like yeah dude sometimes teenagers have sex. get over it #also something to be said about how while the girl who survives is the one who isn't sexually active and dresses conservatively...#ultimately those things aren't ENOUGH to prevent her from being targeted #you could say that the other girls 'provoked' the villain (the same way women irl are so often accused of provoking their attackers)#but ultimately that doesn't keep the Final Girl safe. it just delays the inevitable.#because violent men never need excuses. no matter how eager society is to provide them.#ultimately she is at the mercy of the same violent whims because it was never her behavior that invited the violence.#gendered violence doesn't need an invitation.#also she doesn't save herself the doctor saves her #it's not her actions or choices that put her in danger OR save her from it--once again it is the whim of a man #no this wasn't intended to be a feminist movie it's just fun how you could argue it that way

ravage is #1 personal space stealer and heater, 10/10 would recommend having him as an amica. usually he'd be sleeping curled around soundwave's head but the other cassettes are out harassing starscream on patrol, so soundwave's chest is free real estate

anyways send me asks with ur soundwave and ravage hcs and mayhaps i'll draw them soon

#transformers #maccadam #maccadams #transformers art #tf art #transformers fanart #tf fanart #transformers idw #idw transformers #idw1 #idw tf #tf idw #soundwave #idw soundwave #ravage #idw ravage #i need to make more serious ravage posts again ive been too silly the past few months. far too silly.#i have a bunch of silly asks in my inbox rn which are very fun but i havent really dug into ravage as a character lately and i fear ive mad #her too silly. too sweet #need her to kill someone rq #i love the idea of her and soundwave being amicas but as the war goes on they become more like begrudging co-workers and it #genuinely is the worst thing that ever happens to either of them.#from strangers to friends to comrades to coworkers to a boss and his underling and it makes both of them so so ill #they reunite and reconnect tho no worries #havent been super active lately and probably wont be super active for the next while either. will get to stuff when i can but #agh

okay look, the real reason that zepotha shit is never gonna be Goncharov (besides it being a marketing ploy) is because Goncharov was treated like a fandom (collaborative including celebrities, built upon over time, openly fictional) & zepotha is treated like a tiktok trend (no collaboration, dies fast, treated like reality recklessly). it doesn't matter if it's interesting or cool or what, they've been built on completely different foundations. you're comparing Spiderverse to Endgame here. hydrogen bomb VS coughing baby. zepotha will never have Lynda Carter & Martin Scorsese's approval.

#zepotha #goncharov 1973 #goncharov #i know i dont usually tag shit like unreality but like. yeah. the fact they're actively trying to gaslight for real here is just. ehh #like have fun but also. know what youre having fun with #im just really lazy btw i dont want to tag shit. youre allowed to unfollow me because of that i dont care #also yes zepotha not being capitalized (derogatory)

I was gonna wait and post these till I had more doodles but I’ll just post them now it’s fine. I’ll just explain stuff in the tags as per usual

Some Raz poses and some Dion and Adam stuff

.

(Please do not use or repost my works anywhere without explicit permission from me thank you)

#deersart #my art #psychonauts #psychonauts 2 #razputin aquato #psychonauts razputin #psychonauts raz #dion aquato #Psychonauts dion #adam joseph gette #Psychonauts Adam #this isn’t intended to be ship art of Dion and Adam #not in this instance #i just love Adam basically being Raz’s third brother figure #Lizzie and Gisu are there in a tiny tiny doodle so I won’t tag them but they’re there #i continue to draw Raz in a bunch of little outfits #if he’s not careful he’s gonna get a heatstroke wearing all that thick clothing and doing a bunch of physical activity #i wouldn’t say Adam and Dion would hate eachother. neutral on both ends I think #but since they both know Raz and Gisu I can imagine they’d be in the same circle and hangout everyonce in while #even if it’s not together #although maybe they’d be really chill friends #idk #it’s fun to think about #adams my favorite intern #let me know if you think there’s something else I should tag #I’d have more doodles but I got sucked into a game

isn't it weird how if you get up at 7 or 8, do your work all day, then have free time and go to bed at 11 that's absolutely fine

but if i said i get up at 10, do fun stuff in the morning then work in the evening and go to bed late, i could be called lazy, nevermind that i'm getting just as much or MORE work done as i would in a traditional work day

#ramble #idk if this is a me problem or not #i've tried to do the early rise early bed thing again and again and it just does not work for me doing freelance right now #maybe it's bc i used to work at a bar so i'm more comfortable being active in the evening #i love working at night because there's less going on to distract me #what used to happen is i would get up early then fight executive dysfunction all day saying i couldn't do fun stuff until i did my work #then my will to work would hit at 10pm and i'd be up till 2am anyway #right now my routine is waking up later and playing a game or knitting for an hour or so and then working in the afternoon and evening #something something capitalism and 9-5 and adhd don't go together #this sounds like i'm just making excuses but it works and i'm actually getting shit done and sleeping enough so i don't see the problem #i just figured i'm probably going to sit and do nothing for a few hours in the morning anyway so i might as well give myself permission to

#this is inspired by a dream i had that i found quite poignant when applied to the real world #and it's hostility and slowly creeping illegality of simply existing in public space #and was a very fun activity using paint.net's 3d pane tool which i had totally forgotten was literally a base program tool #i also feel pretty proud of the “Our City Safe” slogan with it's implied hostility by saying it's OUR city #and we're keeping it safe from YOU #you being poor/homeless/lower class/minorities/not actively benefitting from capitalism people #i think it says a lot in very little words #my art #my creation #hostile architecture #anticapitalism #third space #street sign

the thing that is SO miserable about eddie diaz is. it really seems like the narrative is something alive that hates him. this season especially it was like… look at how hen and karen’s support system came together to prevent their baby from being taken from them! look how easy that was! not for you though. your family is going to finally take your baby away after years of trying.

awww nice buck is happily engaging with his queerness and has a boyfriend now look how easy that was! not for you though. you’re doomed to have panic attacks about women and the idea of having to ‘perform’ forever. look at how bobby engages with this ghost from his past! he gets to express himself and get things off his chest and his family is going to love him no matter what. not you though, eddie, and fuck you for trying!

#ITS SO. LIKE ITS ACTUALLY FUCKED UP WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT TOO LONG.#me when eddie diaz has no narrative agency and in fact is actively being made fun of by the universe: FUCK!!!!#my posts #911 abc
