Well. They yassified Carrie White:

Like..........

She's not even naked or bleeding, the fuck are these girls even recording???

Half of them are showing less skin than she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[meduseld]

Fucking:

It's the same picture. What are we doing here.

[meduseld]

Just make an original story and gooooooooooo. Carrie snaps after years of bullying, because as a kid she started preaching the gospel at the lunch room and they laughed at her. She was ALREADY a long standing target when the story opens. And also, her main bully was at home, but suddenly the iconically unhinged Mrs White is. Not abusive?

WHY MAKE CARRIE THEN. AT ALL

[shelterwoodpod]

Carrie is, like, thee book about how we fail fat weird girls with abusive parents. Shaving all the edges off doesn't just make a worse story, it ignores the fundamentally ugly truth that we STILL FAIL girls who are too ugly or strange to be considered worthy of sympathy, leaving them to the whims of parents who may well hate them. I don't understand why Flanagan has become so pathologically incapable of letting horror stories just BE DARK, but it's really de-fanging a lot of stories for a lot of people! Hill House is not about the power of family it's about how lonely people will literally kill themselves to feel any sense of belonging, no matter how fleeting. Carrie is not about a mother and daughter doing their best, it's about the real and present hatred that ESPECIALLY ISOLATIONIST CHRISTIANS have for any young woman and especially young women who are fat, weird, and/especially or refuse to conform. Much like the society at large. I'm losing my mind

PURSUIT OF JADE (2026) | Ep 24

[pankendev]

there are places in the world today that are experiencing 40°C for the first time in recorded history. of course there's no way to know whether chucking billionaires into volcanos will appease the sun god but i feel we're doing the scientific method a disservice if we don't at least try

[vrabia]

the silmarillion is wild because you read it and you're like huh okay, and then you read lotr and it turns out everyone's just going around doing their own thing while the surviving elves are living through the final chapters of a post-apocalyptic horror story

[vrabia]

rivendell's a pretty chill place, right? everyone gets along splendidly. dream retirement home et cetera. solid chance the guy you're having afternoon tea with has either survived or personally committed war crimes. also the reason it's so chill is elrond has this magic ring that makes it so the whole place exists slightly outside normal time

galadriel's been around since the beginning, like, for pretty much all of middle-earth's history you understand, she has Seen it all and despite what you may have been led to believe is at all times this close to snapping. also the reason lothlorien is so chill is she has this magic ring that makes it so the whole place exists slightly outside normal time

i can't emphasize enough how much of a post-apocalyptic horror story thranduil lives in. homeland destroyed and half his people massacred. has fucken sauron in his backyard and the spawn of the primordial beast that eats light puttering about on his lawn. a dragon lives next door. does NOT have a magic ring and is therefore obliged to rule over his murderforest in normal time

just so we're all on the same page here, legolas' day job before joining the fellowship was to hunt the spawn of the primordial beast that eats light and it's not like, a big deal or anything. he just has to do it. he's used to it.

'elves are leaving middle-earth and it's so sad :(' they have ptsd samwise.

Daily reminder to Americans on this website that American war on Iran is bad because Iranians are getting killed not because you can no longer afford going to the movies in the weekends or refill your car 😒

[hagiomoto]

Y'know what, this reminder also includes non-Americans. Let's watch our words and keep the victims of American aggressions in our heart always

[rmelster]

I have always thought how uncanny is it that we are so desensitised to human suffering that we only voice our annoyance about wars when it affects… Our pockets. I would like to think that deep inside a lot of people actually care about what’s going on in Ukraine, in Congo, in Palestine, in Iran, etc, besides the economical impact, it’s just that they don’t say it as much, but to keep quiet is to say a lot. And how the news treat this “foreign” matters with cold indifference, only speaking about numbers and economic consequences and rarely ever about the sheer horror of a war on terror or the resistance of a country to foreign domination, is telling, to say the least
