MADE THIS CONTRAPTION TODAY :)

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Absolutely fascinating use of free will. Was it always your life's goal to get electrocuted in the shower while your screams are drowned out by the screams of The Machine?

[kedreeva]

also have you, perchance, considered un-making it

[sandinmybed]

something I couldn't help but notice in GDT's Frankenstein was that after the lightning, Victor listens to the creature's chest and when he finds its heart not to be beating, repeatedly pounds his fist against its chest in rage. imo he effectively gave it cpr - the lightning gave it electrical activity and Victor unknowingly kick started it. but then equally, that would mean the creature's life began from unrestrained anger. which is something to think about

Chat, is it considered “abusive roommate behavior” to release a raccoon into the living space after you have asked your roommate for months to please clean up their messes (they do not pay any of the mortgage)

[raccoonmilf]

For context, when I used to live alone I would do something called “Princess Time” where I would do an initial sweep (to remove any significant hazards) and then I would release a raccoon into the living area and clean. This helped because I would 1) feel like a princess and 2) the raccoon would bring attention to things my ADHD brain had decided to ignore and I’d quickly clean that stuff up.

So like, if I’m expected to clean the house now, I will be doing it in the way that is most effective for me. And anything that has not been cleaned up after months of having sit-down talks and sending reminders and being promised things will change, might be deemed “trash” by the trash panda and thrown away.

We haven’t done since we moved into the house, because I didn’t want to cause my roommate or their cats destress or have their things destroyed by a raccoon

[raccoonmilf]

I am a raccoon biologist and one of the few people in the state allowed to take in captive bred raccoons that had been possessed illegally. The raccoon in the photos is Moonshine, but she is currently at the animal sanctuary where I work as I had been quarantining multiple new intakes from an abuse case. I still have two males (Rum Tum Tugger and Electra) left in my home enclosure as we are getting them neutered and then hopefully sending them to an AZA accredited zoo.

I wanna make things very clear that underneath all the whimsy, I am a trained professional.

[raccoonmilf]

Those vibes are likely because I’m the original creator of Dashcon and my personality has not changed since 2012 lmao

Hey. Don't cry. Weird teenage girl somewhere out there reading Frankenstein for the first time. Ok?

Do you ever go on YouTube thinking you’ll just be on to watch a quick music video then later you find yourself watching a tutorial on how to walk a mother fucking giraffe.

"Isaac laughs remembering "One time we were looking at the monitor and Guillermo said to me, 'A European would never make this movie that we're making. This is a Latino-telenovela version of the story. It is not a coincidence that my Victor Frankenstein isn't being played by an English person, it's being played by Oscar Isaac Hernández from Guatemala." Speaking in Spanish with his director was comforting to Isaac. "It was truly the first time I felt like I was making something with a family member. Even though its Mary Shelley, and the story takes place in Geneva and Scotland, I felt so connected to my heritage. It bubbled up from the earth. It felt like an ancestral journey for me."

ughhhh the two guys i kidnapped and tied up together in my basement aren't even developing any sexual tension they're just crying and whimpering 🙄🙄🙄 fuck my stupid fujo life

[the-kestrels-feather]

People on Letterboxd complaining that Frankenstein (2025) is just 'Daddy issues the movie' as though the original novel doesn't feature Victor's father telling him alchemy is bullshit, Victor going 'and I took that personally', and then becoming a deadbeat science dad to the Creature about it

[wretched-ham-eater]

Parenthood, and Victor's rejection of it, is one of the key themes of the novel, and why I've always been firmly in the camp of "actually you can 100% refer to the Creature as Frankenstein because he is Victor's son and inherits his name, even if neither of them are particularly happy about that fact".

Del Toro just brought it to the forefront of the text, validating my pedantic ass forever.

[zara2148]

The first 1818 edition was literally dedicated to Mary Shelley's father so like... The daddy issues are baked in?!

Never forget this glorious statement.

[nonaferatu]

This would have had me crucified on tumblr 10 years ago but maybe we are ready for this conversation now:

If you are a socially anxious person, you have to socialize. Your panic/anxiety attacks will only get worse and trigger more frequently if you constantly avoid contact with The Public. Not saying that you need to be a social butterfly- but there is a genuine problem with not being able to order your own meal at a restaurant. And it cannot be solved by always having someone else do it for you.
