RE: TVL 3x06

the two black lead writers iwtv had 1) didn't work on the same seasons, 2) were men and only one was black american, 3) were always co-writers never sole. we have no idea if they have sensitivity readers/editors.

we've all heard heinous shit from family born in the 40s-60s. claudia was born in 1903. she is gonna say some wild shit to louis bc black ppl say wild shit to each other especially when we're mad. we should not be judging claudia by our 2026 pro-black standards. she is rightfully angry and trying to hurt louis. i say this as someone who's only read excerpts of merrick, they adapted her anger very well from the book seance.

last thing: what if they did have someone (a black woman from the south?) come in add the extra 'umph' and now she's seeing a bunch of black folk call her writing the product of a racist writer's room? the core writers who made this show we all love hasn't changed.

#black men betray black women every day#she could've said worse

I mean, I've seen comments from other black viewers/creators on TikTok who think Claudia not only could have said worse, but should have said worse. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Though yes, if she had said worse, and a black female writer had written it, it would be interesting to see what fandom would be saying right now about it. 🤔

I think what Claudia said was pretty tame compared to what she said in Season One. Which, yes, given the time period Claudia was born in? That language matches.

Because yes, I too have heard much harsher shit from family who were born after Claudia would have been, in the 20s, 30s, and 40s. And not only that, she's a vampire. Language like this is one way in which she has already tried to hurt Louis because of her hate of him. Again, as we saw back in Season One.

And many in fandom appear to have developed a case of collective amnesia about that wrt Claudia's character.

Trust me, if I felt a line had been crossed with this, I'd say it. As it is, I think they barely walked up to the line, never mind not crossing it.

NOSFERATU (2024)

And lo, the maiden fair did offer up her love unto the beast and with him lay in close embrace until the first cock crow. Her willing sacrifice thus broke the curse and freed them from the plague of Nosferatu.

[platoapproved]

And my worst problem was laughter. I would go into fits of laughter and I couldn’t stop. Anything could set me off. The sheer madness of my own position might set me off. This can still happen to me fairly easily. No loss, no pain, no deepening understanding of my predicament changes it. Something strikes me as funny. I begin to laugh and I can’t stop.
