not to be controversial but like……. there is literally no reason for any movie or show to have a rape scene in it. there is literally no reason to show that to anyone. and before you hit me with the “but it helps bring light to the subject!!!!! its better than being silent on the matter!!!!” find a better way. dont use a violent act such as that for shock value. there are way better ways to portray or shed light on that issue in media without forcing people to watch something so triggering.
The Lovely Bones movie adapation is a grade-A example of this(leaving out rape in movies) working. Peter Jackson says it really well.
“The key event in Alice Sebold’s novel The Lovely Bones is the rape and murder of 14-year-old Susie Salmon, but in adapting the book to film, director Peter Jackson had several reasons for toning down the violent incident that sets the story in motion.
In the movie, we do not see any rape, and the murder is mostly implied. “There are artistic and there are moral reasons and there are practical reasons,” Jackson said in a press conference over the weekend in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Among other things, depicting the violence would immediately get the film an R rating. “We wanted to make a film that teenagers could watch,” Jackson said. “[Co-writer and producer] Fran [Walsh] and I have a daughter who’s very similar to Susie’s age. We wanted Katie to be able to see this film. There are a lot of positive aspects of this film, and it’s not something that I think I wanted to shield our daughter from. So it was important for us to not go into an R-rated territory at all.”
Then there are the moral reasons for omitting the graphic crime. “It would frankly make it a film that I wouldn’t want to watch,” Jackson said. “I mean, I would have no interest in seeing that depicted on film, and I would not want to see the film. Every movie that I make is a film that I want to see. It’s very important. I make movies that I know I would enjoy seeing in the cinema, and that would not be one of them.– But to do anything that depicted violence towards especially a young person in a way that was serious, to me, I would have no interest in filming it at all. It would be repulsive.”
Stanley Tucci, who plays the murderer, said it was a hard enough role to actually play and they didnt even shoot that horrible scene in the book.
In a separate interview, Peter Jackson talks about how disgusted even story-boarding the rape scene went and failed to make it in the film. Some of the crew walked out of the room. The cast and crew also didnt want to subject the two main actors, Saoirse Ronan (who plays 14 year-old Susie) and Stanley Tucci (who plays Mr. Harvey, a serial killer of little girls), to the scene. They didn’t want Saoirse to experience that scene and it obviously affected Stanley as well.
Reading a rape scene is really so much more different compared to people having to write it out, act it out, and really SEE it. I think the people involved in this movie did what I wish everyone did when handling this subject in just a graphic medium. And I would 100% recommend this book and movie. Both are equally powerful and it’s hard to describe.
Also : Fire Walk With Me is a walk through the life of a traumatized and abused Laura Palmer in the days before her murder and it manages to not have a single rape scene or shot of her sexual abuse in it. Instead we get to know the victim as a human being. I don’t think it’s confirmed but i strongly suspect this is thanks to the influence of David Lynch’s daughter, who wrote The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer and is usually credited with bringing a LOT of humanity to someone who in any other work would just be considered the “dead girl” that inspires the male characters with her suffering.
hmm don’t know how to address this but i looked it up and apparently Richard Phillips, the 72-year-old black man recently released from prison after serving 45 years for murder he didn’t commit, is being forced to sell his art, rather than willingly selling it, since the justice system is refusing to pay him anything. there’s a post going around saying he’s showcasing his art and we should support him by purchasing it, but i think it’s an important distinction that he doesn’t want to part from the art that he made in prison. parting permanently from art you’ve made can be difficult, and considering the emotional value of the art he made in order to cope with his situation, it’s cruel to take it away from him rather than to just donate money. also there’s like this weird fetishization of his “prison art” in the media that is frankly disgusting, like ogling his pain and suffering and making it into some sort of spectacle. i scoured twitter for a donation page but i couldn’t find anything yet

Even that image they have, the woman looks SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE. How do you even justify this garbage???
Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver except it’s playing from your neighbor’s radio that you can hear from your back porch, which you sit out on to relax in spite of the loud buzzing from the lightbulb and the hoards of moths that flock to it on summer evenings like this.

Chinese Kids Are Getting Their Parents, Their Parents’ Parents, And Their Parents’ Parents’ Parents Involved In A Meme
There’s a new meme in China, and it’s very wholesome. The challenge, called “four generations,” includes four generations of family members making an appearance, from youngest to oldest. A son would call his dad, who then calls his dad, who then calls his dad. And a daughter would call her mom, who calls her mom, who calls her mom. The results are super cute.
The videos are being shared on video app Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, under the challenge name, “Four generations under one roof.”

This is legit the cutest and most wholesome meme omg
Reblog if you support this proud, encouraging father and his goblin son.
‘He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.’
OK, so that woman is ‘Annie from Misery’ levels of frigging terrifying.
I was originally going to go with Aunt Lydia from The Handmaid’s Tale for this comeback.
But after thinking about it, Lydia had slightly too much empathy and intelligence for the comparison to truly work.
