People: the normal amount of pain is zero
Me, chronically ill: sounds sketchy but okay
underrated yellowjackets scene is misty storming through the door of nat‘s hotel room while nat is mid-relapse, bodyslamming nat into next week, just fucking snorting all the cocaine before nat can get to it and then fighting for her fucking life because, evidently, misty quigley has never done cocaine ever before. zero thought process, zero consideration, zero alternatives. misty quigley woman of all time.

this is the edit i was talking about
absolutely obsessed with yellowjackets edits to hadestown songs 🫀
every person who makes comments abt forcefully sterilizing men bc of abortion bans owes men of color, especially black and indigenous men, disabled men, poor men, and lgbt men a big fucking apology. perpetrating historic forced sterilization and eugenics isn’t feminist.

Trans men are handsome
That’s it. That’s the post. I’m not going to name specific types of trans men because every single one is handsome and I’m very happy they exist
episode 8
yellowjackets specifically focusing on the spiral into madness through a teenage girl lens was sooo crucial to its plot and development. would it have been different if it were a group of boys instead of girls? yes, definitely. would it have been more violent? more brutal? no. there is something so innately psychological about seeing young women at peak adolescence just go mad. the thing with these young women is that they were already trying to balance between so many things at once. school, identity, sexuality, love, loyalty, friendship, socialization, mental illness. them being put in a position where they had to challenge all of these things for the sake of survival pushed them way past a boundary they were told they should never cross. since the beginning of time women have always been these creatures that were either too innocent or too hysterical. no in between. women are very emotional beings. their anger, their sadness, their grief, is always much more complex. it’s something they’ve been taught to always hold in. it isn’t surface level stuff. it builds up. it bubbles and bubbles and then it comes out haunted, and messy, and fucking terrifying. men? they don’t get told to not get angry. they’re allowed to yell, to scream, to tell people off. it’s as easy as that. their spiral into madness wouldn’t have felt like it needed to be justified or have some other meaning to it. these young women however, it’s so much different. it’s bottled up, and shaken. their violence, their love, their grief, their rage is all so much more emotionally driven, there’s always some logic to it. some way to find connection back to it. it has to have meaning. it has to have ritual. and at the end of it, it’s them reclaiming a power they were never allowed to have.
