everybody say "thank you superman 2025 for bringing truly irredeemable villains back with lex luther!"

he is a cold blooded killer. he has pathetic tantrums and throws pens on the floor. he only wears black. he delivers a fantasically evil villain monologue. he cries pathetically when beaten. his motivation is not related to some tragic backstory, but is simply jealousy twisted into something so deplorably evil. he is bald.

this movie really is All That™️ and then some.

this may seem like a "duh obviously" take but like. death and the maiden not as contrasts like "ohh they look so weird together it signifies how life and death are completely opposite concepts" but like. the maiden being obsessed with death. the maiden willingly tangling herself into death. not posed side by side but within each other. life choosing and desiring and pursuing death. how killing yourself is such a macabre and viscerally wrong idea. somehow that just makes it "its so unnatural and weird" so much better. yeah

The funniest part of the “ummmm actually ☝️🤓 birth control can be REALLY bad for you” responses on my ‘hey I think the current health fad demonization of hormonal birth control is right wing propaganda’ post is that I can’t take hormonal birth control. It reacts badly with my body’s chemistry. But I am wise enough to understand that it is a lifesaving medication for many people and encouraging people to get off birth control if it is working for them with no adverse reactions is bad. Birth control is bad for me and it can have terrible side effects but the potential of pregnancy and periods are worse for many people.

Idk relistening to Stuttgart Rebecca today got me thinking about the way the Hayes Code has influenced both perceptions of Maxim and Mrs Danvers when compared with du Maurier’s original novel—Danvers as the tragic, “evil” lesbian doomed to be punished and die for her actions and Maxim the tragic hero who accidentally killed his wife. and this perception has definitely carried over to the musical (since it’s the plot they use) and I’m just thinking about how in du Maurier’s original book Mrs. Danvers doesn’t die. She sets Manderley on fire and you’re left with this very ambiguous ending for the narrator and Maxim. And Maxim does actively kill Rebecca, he shoots her, and so you’re left with a much more Gothic ending than either the movie adaptation or the musical give you of—there is no happiness for these two, not really. Therein lies the horror. There is no “jenseits der Angst.” And I understand the Hayes Code and I understand the musical following conventional romantic tropes, but man sometimes I wish they’d been more faithful to the novel and given us that ambiguity and horror that du Maurier does.

it disturbs me that a significant number of people think that the issue with sexual violence, gendered violence, and misogyny is sexual desire rather than dehumanization, so they are relentlessly suspicious of others' (and their own) desires while simultaneously never at all interrogating others' (and their own) dehumanizing beliefs about other people, both within and outside of sexual contexts
