I've got so much I want to say about Polite Society. But I refuse to post anything too spoilery yet.

So one thing I will say is the way Lena's depression and mental health is written is incredible. So often when men write women with mental health issues they write this sort of "prettily struggling" womsn in a spiral.

(this infamous queens gambit scene comes to mind)

They're never allowed to actually be ugly or gross or even not have their hair and makeup be perfect.

Like beth here is in a pretty frilly top shes reclining in an uncomfortable fashion. Her makeup looks perfect and he cardigan is prettily draped over her shoulders. She's meant to be attractive. Her sadness is almost fetishised.

but then Lena looks like this

Whereas Lena's a WRECK. It's considered an achievement she showered. AND shes proud of herself for that small acomplishment. Shes angry. She destroys her work. She's dressed in sweats and pyjamas with either no makeup (if i remember correctly) or makeup that looks like it's been on for days. There's a scene where shes wandering aimlessly and just buys a duck to eat. And she does not eat it daintily or prettily (and no its not a chicken ppl seem to be confused).

I love that she spends all the first act in hoodies and pajamas looking like shes not washed in 3 days. It's just so good to see a woman direct another woman with depression. There's so much to be said about the male gaze and how it even impacts the portrayal of women going through crisis. The removal of that lens has created what I will argue is the most authentic experience of depression in a woman I've maybe ever seen. I literally cannot think of another time I've seen that.

Anyways Nida Manzoor I love you.

Ok but can we talk about the absolute horror of being watched and monitored 24/7 that the ancients must have had. The citizenship drones being like an Alexa that's constantly following and listening to you (except it's five pebbles and not Alexa lmao). The fucking OVERSEERS. THEY'RE CALLED THAT FOR A REASON. BECAUSE THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE WATCHING THEIR CITIZENS AS WELL AS THE ENVIRONMENT ALL THE TIME. (I would talk about the fact that they all show arti fucking ads as well but honestly idk what else to say about that. Capitalism got yet another society 😔). That's some fucking nightmare fuel dystopian society settings we are being hinted at. You know the Big Brother Is Watching You thing. The book. Yeah that's what it reminds me of.

The Iterator Is Watching You.

if gwen is a spiderperson statistically theres probably a harry osborn spiderperson. do you think he ever gets uncomfortable about how many other spiderpeople are constantly in battles to the death with him or his dad. do you think he makes sure to wear his mask because his face has a good chance of giving someone a ptsd flashback. do you think he thinks about how small the chance was of him ever being good

Some contemplations on the matador au...sorry, I'm like a child with a new toy 😭(I've not abandoned my other stuff btw obv but at certain point, it gets a bit hard to build an AU cause I'm like, I have so many ideas but idk how to post them in a cohesive way???? So it's a bit more relaxing and fun to play with a new one for a bit bcs everything is new :) )

This au mostly exists bcs I rly like drawing ornate things, such as the matador costume. But I've been thinking a lot lately abt the actual content of it. Vettonso(of course.) I have a few ideas abt the actual avenue of it. I have one main one, and then two jokey ones.

○

The first(and actual) one would be the original thought that both of them are matadors. And Seb retires after injury(btw jfc bullfighting injuries are such body horror. The one guy I was researching was impaled in the skull and lost his eye and some of his hearing. But he came back to bullfighting, and at some point was impaled in the chest and injured his lung. And still kept competing I think??? Somehow there's athletes more insane than f1 drivers, shocking, I know.)

I think Fernando would be renowed for his resilience and Seb for his agility. And both for their exceptional showmanship and flair 🤭 There's actually more than just matadors! Seb would prob start off as Fernando's assistant, a banderillero(kind of an assistant to the matador. They stick these flag things in the bull, and have to be super agile and fast.) And then becomes a matador in his own right(surpassing Fernando's achievements????) But as mentioned, gets a pretty bad injury and has to retire. But he still feels a lot of admiration and respect for Nando and comes to watch his matches. And Fernando *always* dedicates his kill to Seb, throwing his hat at him, hoping he'll one day come back. Seb is like: "what do I do with this box of hats..." Fernando is crying in the corner bcs he's lost a lot of his motivation.

It's really !!!!! to think about their suit designs and the evolution of it. They're pretty united when Seb is Fernando's assistant(Nando wearing light blue with gold, Seb darker blue with silver.) And then Seb becomes a matador(dark blue and gold), and Fernando suddenly changes his suit to bright red(he is upset, he is seeing red, haha get the bull joke?) Seb would start wearing that circa 2010 bull hat after successful matches, thus cementing himself as the "red bull" and Fernando, his rival, "bull-killer." They're not directly competing, but thematically they are. In traditional bull matches, there's 3 matadors vs 6 bulls. So vettonso are often in the same matches, indirectly competing against each other, but fighting to have the most flair and success. Fernando sees defeating Seb to be just as important as defeating the actual bull. He slays the bull, and then conquers the other.

Sobbing to imagine Fernando abandon his hatred for Seb after witnessing him getting injured. Cradling his bloody, torn up body. Pressing his hat to Seb's chest, soaking up his blood with his own cape. By that point, Seb had had a dark green suit. And ever since he retired, Fernando now wears the same shade, as an homage to his once great rival, dedicating every kill that Seb never got to have to the man himself.

Hahaha okay silly versions:

Two is just bullfighter!Fernando being driver Seb's wag 😭

Everyone notes the irony of him being a Red Bull driver who constantly has bull iconography(2010 bull hat, petting the bull on his car, "riding" the bull at the end of 2012, etc.) dating a man who kills bulls for a living. But it turns out Fernando is the only one who can tame the bull 🤭, and also Seb is the only bull he can't bring himself to kill. Seb makes a helmet for the Spanish gp based on the embroidery of Fernando's suit. Fernando tries to incorporate Seb's logo and rbr logo somewhere on his cape. They share a trophy shelf 🥰 and Fernando brings one of his hats to the Spanish gp to publicly bestow upon Seb.

The third is so stupid 😭 Basically: Seb becomes the human physical manifestation of one of the bulls Fernando is meant to kill, and tries to seduce him into leaving the bullfighter life. So he's a bull-boy: tails, ears, horns and all 😏 So Fernando comes home from a match, and Seb is there, kneeling, when he opens his front door. Fernando now must conquer a bull in a *different* way. Bull-boy out who is out to ruin your livelihood by seductively splaying himself across every surface in your house and encouraging you to tug on his septum ring, and forget that you have a match to go to this weekend, and wouldn't you rather enjoy a bull rather than kill one?

one of my favourite character relationship dynamics, platonic romantic or anything, is when two characters are absolutely the bestest of best friends and when one is hurt or something the other will scream and cry and wail and explode and when the other is in danger then the first one will go on some kind of silent terminator-esque rampage about it. besties (do no separate)

uninspired but epic song for vibes <3  here’s some old japan n nyo!japan doodles. 

i haven’t really included him so much in my 70s au sadly :( but thats mostly bc i dont think he interacted that much with veneziano n germany in the 70s, bc of all of vene’s scandals etc etc n japan got to a point where he just “i cannot b seen with a guy who’s dick has been on every tabloid cover in europe. sorry. i do care about my image.” but before then i think he n veneziano were close, on the same brainwave (entire conversations only through facial expressions level of friendship). anyways, i think he’s a big fan of movies and has been for a long time but got around to filming his own in the 60s, a lot of art-house dramas that he would edit together in his bathroom (an interest he shared with germany n vene; germany liking all the pretentious stuhf, symbolism n hidden plots etc, meanwhile vene liked the abstract body horror n was impressed with japan’s skill to make it look realistic). i also think he enjoyed performance art, liked yayoi kusama n groups such as gutai, but never did it himself.

can we please see your headcanons of Susie and Frank's relationship? 🥺 (I am a big believer in Frank and Susie viewing each other as siblings).

THAT IS ON GOD HOW I VIEW THEIR RELATIONSHIP AS WELL !!! They just give me major older brother & and younger sister vibes, I just think they're so silly and just love imagining their dynamic!

• Although Frank isn't Susie's first choice when needing to vent or get help with something, whenever she DOES ask for his help, he will drop whatever he's doing to be there for her

• Whenever they need the other's attention, they will just yell at each other from wherever they are, more specifically when they're in the lodge and have a question or whatever. For instance, if one of them was ordering a pizza, they'd yell for the other to tell them what kind they want

• Both of them will often walk into the room the other is in, stare at them, and then turn the light off and BOOK it before the other can catch them

• Definitely the most chaotic duo, and tend to cause the most problems together cause neither of them really thinks things through before doing them. Work very well together, though, and are basically able to tell what the other is thinking just by lookin at em

• Susie LOVES to give Frank a hard time, especially about his relationship with Julie, buggin' him nonstop, both before they got together and afterwards. Susie would call him out for staring at Julie for too long, being stupid for not being able to tell that Julie liked him back for quite a while, and just overall how dumb he gets when he's around her. Frank gets a bit annoyed, but he doesn't mind it, especially since he'll just bite back by mocking her about her relationship with Joey. It's all lighthearted, ofc

• On this note as well, though Frank typically talked to Joey about Julie, sometimes he'd confide in Susie since she knows Julie best, knowing absolutely everything about her, and Susie would get very giddy about helping him out

• Frank's really bad at comforting Susie when she's upset, and typically tries to find Julie or Joey to help him out, but he tries his goddamn best when he needs to. He'll typically just stay silent, giving her a hug and just letting her vent or cry

• Susie was a bit hesitant around Frank when Julie first introduced him to her and Joey, but seeing how happy he made Julie brought her defense around him down. It wasn't until he let her go on a whole ass info dump about cats and actually participating in the info dump with her that she really started to trust him. Just like with Julie, Susie started to look up to him big time and trusted him as the leader of their lil group

• Sometimes Susie will put lil hair ties or hairclips in Frank's hair, and it would always look like an absolute disaster, but she always found it a lot of fun and really funny lookin' as well. Julie managed to snap a picture of Susie doing this and has it hanging on her wall, absolutely joyful that her friends all get along to well with each other

• Both of them will barge in on whatever the other is doing and just start talking about whatever is on their mind, not a single regard about whether the one they're annoying is doing something important, and whether or not the other will actually stop and listen (most of the time they will)

• While Frank is protective of Julie in your typical "that's my girlfriend" fashion, he's very protective of Susie in a "that's my younger sister" kind of way!

• Susie drew a picture of Frank once, and he on god had to keep himself from laughing over it, not necessarily because it was bad, but because it just meant a lot to him that she'd do something like that

• Despite neither of them owning a car nor having a license to actually drive (Frank got his suspended and Susie just hasn't gotten hers yet), sometimes they'd steal either Clive's or Susie's parent's cars and go on drives, especially whenever Julie and Joey are out doing something else (like work or whatever). They always make sure to get the cars back before their rightful owners notice, but they've gotten close to getting caught a few times

• They tend to get in the most arguments, and neither of them will hold back at screaming at the other, and both of them can and will get LOUD. They'll lowkey give each other the silent treatment after fighting, and then make up by asking the other if they want food or something (and sometimes awkwardly saying sorry before forgetting about the whole debacle and moving past it entirely)

• When Frank was still on Fairview's basketball team early in his Senior year, he overheard a lot of the shit some of the cheerleaders (specifically the ones or a year above Susie's grade) would say about Susie, and get REALLY defensive and snap at them. Most of the time the girls didn't care, but it would get under his skin and he'd always tell Julie, who already knew about Susie getting bullied and had been trying to figure out how to deal with it for a while

• While Susie would get help with homework from Julie or Joey, Frank would always just tell her to toss it to the side and do something else, claiming that all that schoolwork wasn't really worth her time and encouraged her to work on her art instead, since he thought it'd help her more in the long run than stupid math or science packets

ok. giving myself 4 minutes to make this post and then i finish my homework. i just am so deeply miserable. i really think i made a mistake. i should not be in grad school. i only took a year between this and undergrad and i am still so burned out and mentally ill. im working full time. im only taking one class and this program is supposed to be so good and aligned with what i want and all of that. but i just cant stand having homework. i just cant stand it. i think i am not cut out for academia even though i work in academia. i think i will never get better as long as im still living at home but i have to get better before i can no longer be living at home but i cant get better until im not living at home and every day i still live at home saps away at my will to live quite literally. i should not have started doing grad school without regaining my will to live. without restoring my love for reading and writing that i used to have voraciously when i was younger and less deeply miserable. without recovering from the burnout. i think i made a mistake. i need a masters degree so bad so that i can be safe but i need to not have fucking homework when i already struggle to get through my days without school. i feel so stuck in my life and hopeless and helpless. i dont know what to do
