GOOOOD THE ADDAMS FAMILY IS SOOOIIoo ... autistic .... And queer coded dear god . Oh my days the themes that follow the addams family like the connotations of their ghoulish macabre nature and being outcasts and openly different to other 'normal' people UUIIUGHH and the motifs THE MOTIFS and the visuals don't get me started on the visuals that illustrate how they view the world the craazy gothic black and white aesthetic to make it awfully vivid and to make the audience intentionally aware that yes they're weird and they're different and they make people uncomfortable but this is just how they are and they still love eachother they love eachother sooo much ohh good grief. pure autism and queer representation made into the shape and form of a monstrous family and how monsters have been used to create queer subtext for absolute centuries in your classic literatures and the idea behind their satirical surrealism and differences is 'playing god' because they're like all undead or something and they would 'burn in hell' SPOIHHAAIIIOIX and theee the thee doesn't-fit-standard huuge found family that doesn't just align with the one mother one father two children family ideal and norms and thing being literally a hand that is probably not even related by blood (they probably don't even have normal blood) that communicates in the form of sign language and the way both wednesday and pugsley don't fit in in school and how wednesday knows random facts about everything and her interests in plants and invention and murder and her tendency to lack the understanding of basic human emotion and uncle fester just being oblivious to everything and acting sooo autistic but he's still respected and treated as the family man and how gomez and morticia are bizarrely fixated on eachother and how you would expect normal humans to scream and run away in their presence but they still treat them respectfully to an extent whilst being still painfully obviously uncomfortable because of the idea of treating everyone equally in modern day society but people still don't do it genuinely and how autistic and queer people flock together and and
