Elizabeth in GDT's Frankenstein being a lover of insects. Strange creatures others look upon in disgust and fear, she holds gently. Studies them, loves them, is fascinated by them. Hello? Can anybody hear me?

I never like it when adaptations don't portray Victor Frankenstein as a college student. I think there's a very particular type of mental state that you can only get from being a sleep-deprived, overworked college student that makes Frankenstein make sense. Grave-robbing? Stitching together a giant monster? Performing questionable experiments? Avoiding his problems by constantly fainting? Yeah, I probably did some stuff like that last semester, I don't remember

Had to reblog with the hilarious addition from OP isdhfksdhfdsk

[firlexgremlin]

i am not articulate enough to make this sound coherent rn. but the cycle of familial violence portrayed in gdt's frankenstein, set against the backdrop of the cycle of violence in society with the constant references to the wars. the creature finding beauty and connection in nature, feeding the deer until it is shot dead. his speech about the wolves and the sheep, how they don't hate each other, it's just in their nature to kill and be killed.

it seems like these cycles will never end but they can. you can turn your ship around. you can forgive your father. you can walk into the snow and feel the sun upon your face. you can, you can, you can.

when talking about AI remember the different versions:

Analytical AI, is the one that can detect cancer and save lives

Generative AI is the one that steals art to make it worse, and gives you a wrong answer every time you google something

Weird Al is the one who got his ponysona to canonically have children with a pony from my little pony
