****TW mention of rape*****

(wrote this with no sleep sorry if i’m not making sense)

david lynch’s death would have been devastating in any other circumstance, but i feel like his death was particularly devastating in this current timeline because he was genuinely one of the greatest artists of all time, and we are witnessing a war on art and a war on love and empathy in america. art has always been undervalued, but i feel like it’s even worse now with the rise of ai *puke* “art” and anti intellectualism. people do not want to be moved by anything anymore and people don’t want to engage with something that doesn’t have a straightforward meaning.

people struggle to understand twin peaks, but at its core, that show is about a 17 year old girl who is struggling with the horrors of knowing that her own father had been raping her since she was 12 years old. that was the truest part of twin peaks. there was nothing surreal about that. there are laura palmers everywhere in america and david recognized that and wrote her with more compassion and understanding than any other man in hollywood probably could have.

women are under attack daily, and it doesn’t help that we have a legitimate rapist terrorist running our country. we NEED david and his love right now more than ever!

his work was dark and disturbing, but there was hope in it. i will admit that i didn’t know what he was trying to say a lot of the time, but i do know that man loved what he did and he spread that love and touched many people’s hearts and souls and it really pains me to see him gone.
