the natural lifespan of a fandom is unlimited. when well tended a fandom can be functionally immortal. and yet everywhere you look you see newly bred fandoms withering and dying when they’re barely a year old. barely even six months old. fans are looking at their six month old fandoms and saying i think it’s on its last legs, should i euthanise it? when with the proper care that fandom could outlive them for decades. it’s sad. sad state of affairs we’re in.

the thing about living with mental illness for decades is that occasionally your brain will be like hey you're useless and should kill yourself and your only real reaction is cmon man right now im in the middle of something

ultimately the truth about frankenstein is that we are all grotesque amalgamations of the best and worst parts of everyone who came before us. and sometimes the people who are supposed to love us because of and in spite of this will not. and we can kill them with hammers for that. and i think that’s beautiful

my brother in christ frankenstein is the title of the book

There’s this beautiful irony where there is a litany of fiction revolving around the concept of characters rebelling against “god” in a vague sense. Sometimes it’s the judeo-Christian god but that’s kinda not the point. The “god” is often times a metaphor for just some greater force.

Fate. Capitalism. Racism. Tyranny. The entropy of the universe.

And that’s all well and good. It’s a good deconstructionist view of the human condition. Where the characters are a stand in for the audiences frustration against these greater societal and universal forces.

The irony comes in when real people are given the drivers seat of fictional worlds they are essentially the gods of…they are exactly the same as those fictional gods other stories criticize
