shortly thereafter, she tries to incinerate you

which could mean nothing

just a little vent art, sorry if anything is out of character kris gets misgendered by the community a lot, and when it happens so often, it starts to get overwhelming. but, once you remember that the only people that really matter are the family/friends that love and respect you for you, you realize it'll all be ok

remember kids, the moral of "Irish and Italians weren't even considered White yet!" isn't "because in those times people were so ignorant they didn't think the Irish were white". the moral is "because white is an unreal category created to justify slavery and ongoing hoarding of power and wealth". It's not that you know better about Italians. It's that the boundaries of the higher caste have changed.

i think if you write a society where relationships that you would consider queer are normal, there should still be ways to be queer in the fictional cultural context you invent. like karkat

i thought for SURE there would be a post out there about doubling/mirroring in the handmaiden so i didnt bother to take more screenshots than these but i now cant find anyone talking about it so here i go anyway. like yes resemblance between women can be the result of enforced conformity to standards of femininity but also and crucially recognition of resemblance can act as a gateway to feelings of solidarity that eventually allow two people caught in a trap to stop climbing over each other and start boosting each other up instead. there is something about the pursuit of lesbian relationship that allows for the full realization of the radical potential embedded in that initial moment of recognition; that perverts and corrupts a resemblance which originally served as an expression of conformity into a marker of belonging to a conspiracy against one's oppressors. lesbianism here works as the antidote to the problem of fragmentation posed by the gothic double; if in sedgwick's formulation doubleness arises because the gothic self is "blocked off from something it ought normally have access to," such that the doubles become "counterparts rather than partners" and "the relationship between them is one of parallels and correspondences rather than communication," lesbian relationship reforges the unity that has been ruptured by conditions of exploitation, isolation, secrecy, and violence, reuniting doubles who have been made to oppose one another despite their parallel positions in narrative and social structure. even if all that initially caught their attention was their shared features, that moment of identification creates an opening through which they are able to recognize their shared interests and as a result move to avert their shared fate.
