I’m not the woman I was a few years ago or even a year ago but I still like to hold her hand and remind her she did her best with what she knew

and if I can just say that it DID break my heart when I realized that there was no planned redemption for clark, through bits and pieces I could make out that this wasn’t a pain of circumstance but instead a long imbedded story of how clark discards the people around him.

the casual dehumanization of his ex-wife, the disregard for his employees, the intimidation tactics used on his therapist, even going as far to EAT the stills. all done under the guise of “no one understands” where he’s coming from and how ACTUALLY he knows better than everyone else

mary was right that it’s not even about him being irredeemable or “evil” it’s the fact that even after getting the outcomes of HIS ideas and HIS desires he’s still MISERABLE he’s still a complainer and a crybaby about how EVERYTHING happens to him, how HE’S not actually responsible for anything that goes wrong but simultaneously being the only one that knows what’s best

him getting eaten felt like such a full circle moment like, what’s left when everyone who could’ve possibly cared about you is no longer around? what else can you destroy? being fully engulfed by a stumbling, destructive, whiny beast that “can’t control itself”

it’s just how he’s wired

the fact bear only tried to cancel his wish after being told he couldn’t alter it (and, seemingly, because he was uncertain about how real nikki’s love actually was) - instead of wanting to do that from the start, as soon as it was clear that something was wrong with nikki - makes me so, so devastated for her. it’s clear he was more concerned with what he was getting out of the wish, rather than the detrimental effect it was having. and like, everyone could tell something was up with nikki, it’s not as if it wasn’t clear. him hanging up the phone as soon as nikki is out on the line (screaming) is so symbolic of how he is completely ignoring how he is ruining her life throughout the film

[sl0wdanced]

also let’s discuss the complacency of the customer service guy on the line, how most men who aren’t awful like Bear don’t really care to do anything differently other than not involve themselves

Nikki is still trapped in a veil of what’s expected of her and what she wants, and trying to get through. And like most men confronted with female victims, he “cares” enough to make Bear uncomfortable but truly couldn’t be MORE indifferent.

Just a complete lack of interest in her suffering and instead using her pain to tell Bear that he “was just testing him” complete and utter hellscape for Nikki

[sl0wdanced]

can I also just add that I don’t know where people are getting the idea that Bear was “scared” at what Nikki might do and that’s why he slept with her, he has a smug look of joy when he gets off of her the scene prior is her asking him if things are good what does the lie matter? and HE says “doesn’t matter to me” any acquaintance, coworker, friend, partner any NORMAL person would confront the situation and ask “but why lie?” “our relationship should be built of trust and love” at no point do we see Bear behave like an actual boyfriend!!!!! BEAR KNOWS HE HAS NO ACTUAL LOVE FOR NIKKI he fucks her because he knows this is the opportunity to do so he KNOWS she is not herself

[sl0wdanced]

I think there’s something particularly sinister about Bear never showing any genuine concern for Nikki, not when she harms herself not when she defecated herself, he only questions to the extent of “why are you acting like this why are you embarrassing me?” “just be nikki”. He never wanted to be her “boyfriend” he wanted Nikki to be his girlfriend he wanted her to exist as a concept for the other Ians to look at him and think “wow how did he do it?” but having Nikki be so dependent on Bear is seen as embarrassing, childish even. And the last thing Bear wants is to be seen as cringe.

Obsession is a lot of things particularly how men are kept in a prison of men’s making and women will suffer for it
