#really cannot emphasize enough how much iguanamouth changed the site’s sense of humor and therefore the timeline of the western world

#every so often I quote this meme #and forget that some people are boring and normal and have never been on tumblr #and then I have to frantically explain the context before people start getting VERY offended

hot take? idk. victor’s fascination with the figurine of the pregnant woman not only hints at the oedipal tension tied to his mother and the image of milk, but also anticipates his desire to create life without a woman’s involvement. the figurine becomes a symbol of the natural, maternal power he tries to control and surpass. in attempting to usurp the role of the mother, victor’s ambition reveals a deep misogyny, his belief that intellect can replace the body, and creation can exist without love or nurture.

no dude it's so cool how attached you are to that character who is singled out and ostracized due to the external monstrousness that clashes with their internal spark of humanity. and i love how drawn you are to themes of horror and love, nature versus nurture, otherness, isolation, and the abject. i bet you have normal feelings about your own personhood

#watched Frankenstein finally #did i sob again? yeah i did #guys I swear I’m totally fine and normal and well adjusted

The Summer Hikaru Died is like. what if you believed you were a disgusting monster for being gay. but then you meet a real monster, and over time you start to believe that even this monster deserves to be safe and happy, and it's the first time you start allowing yourself to believe that maybe you do too. what if I cried one million tears forever

#y’all I broke into full blown sobbing tears no less than three times watching the first season #its so good. it hurts SO bad #as a closeted queer kid in a small town who had multiple toxic homoerotic friendships it hit so hard

I think that if you are in any area of Academia in a professional capacity it is in fact an obligation to think about methods of collection and dissemination of knowledge that exist outside of Academia. and in fact I think that if you do not do this you are a bad academic. much less actively disparaging the people outside of your institution as automatically "anti-intellectual" bc you do not agree with them.

#as someone who works in academia/is an academic I heartily approve of this message #what the fuck is the point of science if nobody but a small subset of ppl understand it #similarly I do wish scientific literacy was taught in schools as well #or just like. critical thinking in general

It's funny having a very high tolerance for pain but a very low tolerance for other forms of discomfort. Like yea tattoos piercings cramps shots cuts bruises whatever thats nothing. But I better not get nauseous or hear a loud sound. Or I'll die

i think the hottest look you can give someone after they commit acts of unspeakable violence is approval. like don't get me wrong if there's lust there too that's great, but staring at someone with gore dripping down their chin and coating their hands to the wrists with undisguised appraisal and admiration. maybe giving them a little nod as if to say 'well done'. THAT'S what says "yeah we're gonna fuck nasty later".

"i could fix him" well i could pat him on the head and tell him he's a good boy
