Dads love having undiagnosed autism

as someone who cries really easily at fictional shit it’s so hard trying to explain that the thing i cry the most at most consistently is an episode of a sitcom where a community college plays the floor is lava

I Saw the TV Glow is such a uniquely, devastatingly queer story. Two queer kids trapped in suburbia. Both of them sensing something isn’t quite right with their lives. Both of them knowing that wrongness could kill them. One of them getting out, trying on new names, new places, new ways of being. Trying to claw her way to fully understanding herself, trying to grasp the true reality of her existence. Succeeding. Going back to help the other, to try so desperately to rescue an old friend, to show the path forward. Being called crazy. Because, to someone who hasn’t gotten out, even trying seems crazy. Feels crazy. Looks, on the surface, like dying.

And to have that other queer kid be so terrified of the internal revolution that is accepting himself that he inadvertently stays buried. Stays in a situation that will suffocate him. Choke the life out of him. Choke the joy out of him. Have him so terrified of possibly being crazy that he, instead, lives with a repression so extreme, it quite literally is killing him. And still, still, he apologizes for it. Apologizes over and over and over, to people who don’t see him. Who never have. Who never will. Because it’s better than being crazy. Because it’s safer than digging his way out. Killing the image everyone sees to rise again as something free and true and authentic. My god. My god, this movie. It shattered me.

“‘we need more morally gray female characters’ y’all can’t even handle—“ these characters aren’t meant to be loved by the masses. they’re meant to be worshipped by a niche group of sapphics who defend her against the hate train like their lives depend on it. release the unhinged women. they will be loved

The scene in I Saw the TV Glow in 2010, where Owen is lying on the couch, and he rewatches an episode of The Pink Opaque and discovers…

It’s cheesy. And poorly written & acted. And it’s not as a good or as scary as he remembers. Or as he wanted (wants?) so badly for it to be. He’s been remembering the secret good version that lives in his head.

Yeah

“I’m sorry you couldn’t find me. I have been in the woods. I put myself there because I couldn’t be good. I have been running with foxes and running with crows and I have found myself a home where no one goes.” ~Florence Welch, Useless Magic: Lyrics and Poetry

kendrick lamar made me realise that there is an even stronger level of hater that i have yet to tap into

[r3medialch8os]

abed, along with portraying many other niche aspects of being an autistic individual, is one of the only characters i’ve ever seen accurately represent what it’s like to feel genuine anger and wish misfortune upon people who harbor incorrect opinions about movies or tv shows. i get it man. i really do.
