we have all been tricked into paying hundreds of dollars per ticket to fund Gerard Way’s public fetish roleplay where he gets slapped, manhandled, and called a good boy while “brainwashed” in front of tens of thousands of people

i do think frank iero is what happens when god takes notice of you. he’s clearly god’s favorite in many ways. it’s just that when you’re god’s favorite that WILL MEAN you’re going to experience some horrible shit too.

Why does it always feel so devastating when they acknowledge the breakup out loud

Sorry we really went from free the nipple, take back the night, slut walks, and ending gender/sex segregation in sports being fucking milquetoast feminism 101 concepts to fucking girl dinner and "I just worry about fairness if we let trans girls play against cis ones" and "it was right of that woman to call the cops on a black man for existing near here in public during the day time because men are all violent monsters" and "radical feminism isn't transphobic we just need to kill all men including trans ones those oppressive traitors" and I will legit never be able to be normal about it. What the FUCK happened. I'd say I wonder what the feminists of my youth would say about this but I'm one and lemme tell ya I want to throw up. Go fucking read bell hooks or do something else useful please because all of this learned helplessness, gender essentialism, and transphobia dressed up as feminism is actively holding us back.

in all seriousness it's very alienating knowing theres Something Wrong With You. like seeing your mental illness come through in your behaviour and thought processes and knowing it's irrational and unhealthy, knowing other people are reading you as weird or stupid, and not being able to do anything about it is such a lonely experience

Dr. Strangelove References in LLTBP

I haven't seen anybody talk about this yet, so I figured I would throw my hat in the ring and talk about references in the LLTBP Tour that stood out to me. Obviously, the tour was heavily inspired by 1984 and Cabaret, but when I was at the show (TX), I couldn't stop thinking about Dr. Strangelove (or how I learned to stop worrying and just enjoy the bomb). I'm not gonna go into huge depth with it but I just wanted to point out a few things that caught my attention in between my violent screams and sobs lol.

First, Dr. Strangelove is a Cold War-era movie that basically shows an alternate universe where the paranoia around the cold war comes to a head and a stealth bomb is sent toward Russia by a military leader gone rogue. It eventually ends with the bomb blowing up, sending the world into a nuclear winter (ie. Mutually Assured Distruction).

Keposhka- The language itself being inspired by Eastern European languages.

The Dictator- To me, his sunglasses, the clothing he wore, and his make up, is very reminiscent to the Dr. Strange love character himself, who BTW, was supposed to represent Henry Kissenger (ie. basically an architect of death). He was also in a cowboy hat at my show, which could (probably doesn't lol) reference a second character, Major King Kong, who rides the nuclear bomb with his cowboy hat waving as it's dropped.

The Red Phone- This is a reference beyond Dr. Strangelove. It's the same color as the Washington-Moscow Phone line, which was used to allow direct communication between US and Soviet leaders.

Chewing Gum- This one is a huge long shot, but Chewing Gum was a huge part of Dr. Strangelove and I noticed Frank chewing gum. I'm probably reading into it too much.

Rocket launch Sequence During Sleep- This one is pretty obvious lol

The Clown stabbing Gerard and then Suicide Bombing himself- I think that in a more literal sense, it's a reference to the idea of Mutually Assured Destruction in and of itself. In bombing the stage and ensuring that Gerard dies, he's also ensuring his own death. He's aware and he welcomes it with literal 'open arms.'

Anyway, that's all I've noticed so far. I might update it more if I notice anything else. Ya'll should really watch this movie. It's amazing.

Ok an interesting detail I have noticed from the the new MCR tour posters

Mikey’s war medal this time resembles an AA sobriety chip. Usually, silver ones are meant for 24 hour sobriety but I think the medal is silver just so it matches the rest of the look

Either way, something about this makes me so happy. Hell yeah Mikey, you got this.
