okay? my name is inigo montoya? you killed my father? prepare to die?

Something that got my eye with the recent-ish episode of Nevermore is that the dean's say that specter's are someone's true self, but I don't think that's true you see if we look at the details of each spectre and contrast that with the character we'll find that's not true

So Lenore's design is said to mean that she is a bad person but if we look at the events of the comic that isn't true, as an example in the void she immediately tries to comfort the void child despite not knowing what it is, this along with almost breaking up with Annebell for the sake of someone she met a little under a week ago. So it's safe to say that she is a mostly good person

So how does this connect to the information we know well I think it's safe to assume the daens are lying to make Lenore and therefore the misfits more unstable so the game is more fun.

But what does this mean for the other specter's designs? I will explain that in a later post.

It just dawned on me that Ira's name could be a reference to Ira Levin, the author of The Stepford Wives, which is Fascinating to me in terms of how it reflects on Annabel.

Nevermore's no stranger to referencing non-Poe works -- most comperably Lenore's Dementophobia trial flashbacks allude to The Yellow Wallpaper in connecting the wallpaper's pattern to causing her "madness"

The Stepford Wives as a loose connection to Annabel's character is truly fascinating to me as a concept considering the rigid 1950s housewife archetype it was commenting on was referential to the ideals of the Victorian era culturally, and Annabel considering the concept of becoming a wife and being forced into motherhood as worse than death works so well bouncing off that.

and side note: I do find it interesting that one of the names for the housewife ideal of the Victorian era was "the angel of the house" and the connections to angels within the poem Annabel Lee. So much that idea, what with the angels in the poem killing Annabel and Nevermore Annabel considering the fate of becoming a housewife akin to death.

so. not to doxx myself (i've talked about this here before though) but i live in Kansas. and my license was just revoked very suddenly and immediately because i'm trans and had changed my gender marker.

so now i cannot legally drive or vote until/unless i let them force me to carry around a card that misgenders me and outs me as trans, because i certainly don't look female anymore.

so hey if you have the means and want to help with any of this, please consider donating to the ACLU of Kansas because they are at least going to try to do something to push back against this, and i'm such a panicky wreck that the only thing i can do to get through my immediate gut reaction to having my license revoked tonight (i cannot stress enough that i received the letter today saying that my license is no longer valid tomorrow) is focus on the fact that there's at least one entity trying to protect me and my fellow trans kansans.

More info on what's been happening in Kansas:

"The legislature did not include a grace period."

Topeka, KS – Two transgender residents of Kansas have filed a lawsuit in state court challenging a new state law that immediately invalidate

please please please reblog a version with this most recent ACLU press release linked in it, i want people to know what is being done to try and protect us while the state violently detransitions us.

You know what. Let it be. Let Annabel betray Lenore at the altar. Let her get cold feet. It still fits into the overall concept.

We talked a lot about how Lenore and Annabel switched places after death. One day, Lenore had nothing to lose, so she faked her death, set fire to a mansion, put a lot of people in danger and threw the whole world at Annabel's feet, suggesting that she give up material wealth, a stable position in society and confidence in the future for the sake of a beautiful fairy tale about the escape of forbidden lovers.

But Annabel chickened out. Annabel was not ready to lose her whole life for the sake of a ghostly hope for a better future with a reckless renegade. After all when Lenore first asked to run away together Annabel calls her mad.

Because Annabel in life is different from Annabel in Nevermore, just like Lenore. I think a lot of people forget about this because we hardly saw Annabel's position in flashbacks. However, what little we have shows Annabel as a gambling yet very trapped girl, ready to make concessions to society. Remember the quarrel at the Finger Lakes: nevermore!Annabel would arrange a whole scheme with secret correspondence and fake names just to keep in touch with Lenore, but this Annabel just leaves because apparently it is not appropriate for a married woman to be friends with a madwoman.

It had never occurred to Annabel that you can deceive social norms. She was ready to play by the rules all her life, accept the inevitable, and not go beyond what was allowed. She chose her father, her reputation, and the golden cage. And then it all disappeared, and Annabel died along with Lenore, despite their efforts.

However there is not a single priority in Nevermore that Annabel once put above Lenore. She has no confidence in the future, she has no family, she has no alternative. But she still has Lenore. Now Annabel is the one with nothing to lose, now she is ready to take the risks she feared during her life. Because what difference does it make? Once she got cold feet and lost anyway dragging Lenore down with her, so now she can try the exact opposite strategy. In the end the only alternative is death. Or oblivion, if they become spheres. Yes, in that case Annabel's desperate loyalty is largely dictated not only by guilt but also by the lack of any other choice. She clings to Lenore because she has nothing else to cling to.

And although it's bitter and doesn't really look like beautiful love story, Lenore did the same. For Lenore, there was only one road–the attic and the suffocating loneliness that was gradually driving her crazy. The only way out is to escape and in that case why not invite Annabel with her? Why not take a chance? The worst that can happen is a prison or an asylum, which are hardly different from an attic in the long run.

But in Nevermore, Lenore suddenly has something to lose–friends. People who don't judge her for not conforming to the norms, people who find her recklessness inspiring, and even Annabel couldn't give her acceptance like this. So when Annabel says that they could sacrifice the world to their love and run away, ignoring the feelings of others, it's Lenore's turn to call her mad.

How can Annabel compete with her beloved`s new priorities? After all at the crucial moment Annabel herself did not choose Lenore. Now that Lenore has to make a choice, she has no good reason to choose Annabel either.

As much as I wish Annabel had some kind of ace up her sleeve at the wedding, if she just got cold feet, it's completely in keeping with her character.

If you as a leftist can understand that

the Trump administration is using the concept of violence against women to oppress transgender people and strip back civil rights

AND violence against women is a real societal issue that needs to be taken seriously, especially when women's safety and autonomy is directly attacked by the same right wing politicians claiming to care about it to further their agenda

Then you can also understand that

the Trump administration is using the concept of antisemitism to perpetuate oppress activists and strip back freedom of speech

AND antisemitism is a real societal issue that needs to be taken seriously, especially when Jewish safety is directly attacked by the same right wing politicians claiming to care about it to further their agenda

Right? ...Right??

for no reason whatsoever here’s a reminder that if you consider yourself a leftist/punk/abolitionist/anarchist/radical in any sort of way and get called into jury duty, you are to become the most square person on earth during the jury questionnaire!!!

don’t be that guy who says fuck the police in the jury questionnaire! that just gets you sent home! if you want to generate change, interact with the case and use your jury vote for good! ESPECIALLY if it’s a high profile case!
