Gothic literature must be cursed to forever be misinterpreted by mainstream public because how did this happen

Dracula book: an evil count who only sees the world as a resource to be drained for his own pleasure is stopped by the group of people who deeply care for each other

Dracula in media: a tragic romantic hero, main love interest of one of the protagonists who must be liberated from her dull little life

Frankenstein book: any human has capacity for evil when completely abandoned and shunned by the world and the people who brought him into it

Frankenstein in media: don't play God because it's against nature's laws

Jekyll and Hyde book: repression and only caring about external appearances can cause your worst impulses to indulge themselves in dangerous ways if ignored for too long

Jekyll and Hyde in media: what if there was two of the same guy but one of them was evil and gross?

Unquenchable greed is killing us all.

this is actually HILARIOUS because both domestic rabbits and domestic cats practice dominance-related social grooming but for wildly different reasons.

if you're a rabbit, the boss rabbit is the one who gets groomed by its subordinate rabbits.

but if you're a cat... the boss cat is the one that grooms the other cats.

BOTH these idiots are going "aw yeah, it's good to be on top >:) "

Nosferatu has something for everyone. Eye candy for the girlies who just like to watch sexy people. Great costume and set design for the historical girlies. If you're a monsterfucker this is for you. Angst lovers your time is now. If you simply enjoy Robert Eggers then prepare for this to be your favorite work from him. If you like your horror gross and disturbing and perverted then this is for you. Tragic romance girlies come get your juice. Gothic and dark romance girlies come get your juice.

Ok but like. What the fuck is there to do on the internet anymore?

Idk when I was younger, you could just go and go and find exciting new websites full of whatever cool things you wanted to explore. An overabundance of ways to occupy your time online.

Now, it’s just… Social media. That’s it. Social media and news sites. And I’m tired of social media and I’m tired of the news.

Am I just like completely inept at finding new things or has the internet just fallen apart that much with the problems of SEO and web 3.0 turning everything into a same-site prison?
