ALL ABOUT EVE (1950) dir. Joseph L. Mankiewicz

[fieryskies]

I love the ugliness of love. Removing love from its socially accepted roots. Love as not a mere source of tragedy and sadness, but as an active corruptive power over those it mystifies. Love as the addiction without cure and the wound forever bleeding. I love seeing the beauty of something so coveted spun on its head.

Love it when there's cool™ folks with extensive historical knowledge of lore and ancient lineages who have gone through losses and sought questionable ways of achieving their goals + having indirect connection to their respective beings of worship

Racism and misogynoir are so apparent in fandom, especially when it comes to shipping because why is it when a white male, sometimes female but I see it more with the former, character is on screen with a love interest, particularly woc, especially if they're black, and even with all the emotional scenes or just moments where they look at one another in ways different from the rest, it's met with "No, they aren't dating/the show is not going to put them together" but let the other love interest be white as well and suddenly it all makes sense? Heck, the examples I mentioned above don't even have to exist between the latter for some to STILL go and believe this rhetoric (eg. some Jace and Helaena shippers because, even if these two only interacted with a dance but yet we see Baela console Jace, after he seeks her out, apparently it's to far fetched to believe that Jacela could be a thing?!)

Sometimes it could be a headcanon that, largely, would make sense (and oftentimes was birth due to lack of respect that the poc characters could have been given by the writers *cough* TVD *cough*), and yet you'd still have people dismissing it left and right and spewing hate. At a HEADCANON! And I'm not saying that just because the other person in the ship is poc that you have to ship them, I'm not, but it's very apparent to many poc fans in fandom that unless the characters are swapping spit and doing the nasty, the possibility of them being viewed in any romantic lens feels too much of stretch even though their white counterparts don't have to jump through the same loops.

There aren't enough sapphic tv shows. And when we do get sapphic shows, they end in tragedy. Please give me a sapphic show that is super popular and has a happy ending.

We had Killing Eve, and Orange is the New Black, but those aren't exactly happy shows with brilliant endings. I love Yellowjackets, but again, the tragedy. The San Junipero episode of Black Mirror is one of my favourite pieces of sapphic media, but it's just one episode. We don't get enough time with the characters. One Day at a Time was a good show, but it was cancelled way too soon. The L Word is very sex-focused (which is fine, but not really what I'm looking for), and again, it's not exactly the happiest of shows.

When it comes to shows with queer rep, the most popular ships are achillean (think Heartstopper, Good Omens, Sex Education, Dead Boy Detectives, Our Flag Means Death, and so on) which is fine, but as a lesbian, I want more from queer media. Heartstopper literally has a lesbian couple, but they aren't given enough screen time (in my personal opinion).

If anyone knows of any sapphic shows that don't end tragically and actually have a fandom, please let me know.
