X-Ray Spex // Identity
When you look in the mirror
Do you smash it quick?
Do you take the glass
And slash your wrists?
Did you do it for fame?
Did you do it in a fit?
Did you do it before
You read about it?
Identity is the crisis can't you see
Identity identity

I know I'm artificial
But don't put the blame on me
I was reared with appliances
In a consumer society
When I put on my make-up
The pretty little mask not me
That's the way a girl should be
In a consumer society
✯ Art-i-ficial, X-Ray Spex

was sposed to get my stupid quiz done 2day but my mother was in town friday & instead of actually bringing any of the shit she said she would she decided that going to ikea on a friday night (busy as fuck for some reason) was the go instead & then we simply had to go out to [REDACTED] --once again-- on a friday night to get dinner despite the fact that it is even worse there after i had 2 skip classes that day due to my agonies and in spite of my repetitions that we had food at home. so the horrors are in a resurgence and i have instead achieved jackshit this weekend!!!! yay!!!!!!

ok jokes aside i do think that wendell & wild manages to pull off the outsider schtick a lot better than. certain recent tim burton films. mainly bc kat is actually an outcast. she’s been bullied, isolated from her peers, exploited by capitalism and the prison industrial complex, and separated from her community. she’s not just needlessly edgy or rebellious, either- her punk-ness is not only a rebellion against the systems that exploit her, but a way for her to remember her parents and her community. the song that plays as she modifies her uniform (i am a poseur) and the song that plays during the car crash (germfree adolescence) are from the same band, x ray spex! it’s clear that she’s inherited her parent’s music taste! and a lot of the songs on the soundtrack are similarly from black rock and punk bands! compare to, say, tim burton’s alice in wonderland (which completely discards the original novel’s satire of victorian british adulthood in favor of edginess). alice claims to be “mad” and an outsider, but in the end has a paint by numbers hero’s journey that follows the role that society sets out for her and ends in her becoming a colonizer in the name of being a girlboss. selick and peele know exactly what they’re saying and what it means to be an outsider right now, but burton doesn’t seem to have realized that he hasn’t been an outsider for several years at this point
