i mean this in the nicest way possible: shy girls are some of the freakiest, most sultry, vixens you will ever meet. just the nastiest, dirtiest thoughts happening behind those glasses and the most luscious body under that cardigan

THIS IS A POST FROM A LESBIAN NSFT BLOG. CISHET MEN AND MINORS DNI.

remmick and the vampires present a false dichotomy

Hogwood (the man who sold the twins the mill) and the KKK are very obviously bad, they are outright malicious bigotry, they use the n-word and plan to lynch the moore's and their community, they are so blatantly racist and hateful it's unavoidably obvious

remmick and the vampires however say that they believe in equality, say that they want to create a community, and yet remmick's goal throught the movie is to both metaphorically and literally steal sammie's ability for his own goal of reconnecting with his irish ancestors, a white man wants to harm a young and upcoming black man and use talents for his own goals without giving any regard to said black man's autonomy or agency

when sammie sings 'I lied to you' in the juke joint and calls forth the spirits from the past and future, it's a blend of cultures; west african, east asian, native american, and african american song and dance blend together across time and space to tell the stories of blues; where it takes its inspiration from, the music genres it then inspired, the complex history of black american culture and its intersections with other peoples of colour in the USA

when remmick and the vampires kill and turn the people in the juke joint, and then perform rocky road to dublin, only remmick's irish culture is on display, there is no influence from the black and asian people he has forcibly assimilated into his song, it's juxtaposition with the earlier scene is blatant, remmick is more than happy to assimilate people of colour into his 'community' of 'equals', and yet its only whiteness that is celebrated, that is normative

remmick claims that he's doing people a favour by turning them immortal, conviently ignoring that he literally has to suck the life out of them to do so, trapping their spirits on earth, he claims that he's the good guy, that the KKK were gonna come and lynch everyone at the joint in the morning anyways, conviently ignoring that he's doing the exact same thing; a white man leading a mob to kill a bunch of black people

in the final confrontation with sammie remmick repeatedly dunks him into the river, a forceful baptism. both the celtic irish and enslaved west africans had their religions suppressed and destroyed by colonialsm, had christianity forced upon them by the british empire, and in that scene we see remmick repeating that cycle, using christianity to inflict harm, and sammie reclaiming christianity, despite all the complex emotions he has arround it, as many colonised peoples have and still do, when he recites the lord's prayer

remmick and the vampires are no less racist than hogwood and the KKK, are no less predatory or evil, they're just less blantant about their bigotry, they represent the system, the normalised white supremacy that is seeped into the very foundation of culture in america, the point isnt that remmick would call any of the black characters in the movie the n-word, i dont think he would, the point is that his exploitation and desacration and inserting-himself-into-when-he-wasn't-invited of the juke joint is a microcosm of what white people have done to black american arts and culture since ever since there have been black and white people in america, and even before that

theres a reason vultures are shown early on in this movie

Nobody warns you that after reading enough fics from Spock’s POV, you just start talking like that. Asked a guy if he was « amenable » to calling bro.

« I will endeavor to » BROOOOO

“She looks like the real thing” - Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead

I’m not gonna lie to you guys, finding parallels scenes between these two was not easy but so worth the end product.

I’ve posted about this before but I rarely see any think pieces on Weecha and Elizabeth so it’s my turn to provide them.

As we all know, Elizabeth was Red’s life. Everything he did was for the sole purpose of protecting her and loving her (no matter what you’ve been convinced to believe otherwise). Those two years he spent (which I can’t believe they never gave us back backstory to those) trying to heal, unfortunately led to him desperately seeking his beloved’s shadow in the women closest to him. His mind couldn’t reconcile the fact that Liz was gone, so he searched for her elsewhere.

Enter Weecha, fiercely loyal to Red and his cause, protected him and loved him from afar (as we know he was with her sister 💀). She literally had to watch him be with another woman, which gives us reason to believe that she’d grown used to having him love someone else. This is why when Red romantically purses her, Weecha doesn’t care for the shadow of Elizabeth that hangs over her. All that matters to her is that Red finally chose her.

Which, on another topic, these two woman are such stark contrasts to one another. Since Liz had a streak of betrayal and Weecha was the embodiment of loyalty, my headcanon is that if Weecha had been introduced at around the time of the S6 betrayal when Dembe self exiled, Weecha would’ve hated Liz for always hurting Red and vice versa. Because as shown to us in S2 “Possessive of him, jealous of the girl he’s trying to protect.” and S8 when she literally KILLS Red’s girlfriend (which we never address 😭) Elizabeth can’t stand for Red to have another woman in his life.

Back to the song, Red’s “fake plastic love” is unfortunately Weecha. Because even though “she looks like the real thing” he’s never going to be able to love her like he loved the woman he devoted his entire life to.

Anyways my thoughts are kind of jumbled but I hope that makes sense.
