Anyone Else Thinking About Effie Spending 24 Years Watching Haymitch Completely Fall Apart. Effie, Who

t-shirt that says i watched i saw the tv glow and all i got was this ache in my chest from an emotion i cant put the name to

i saw the tv glow is a beautiful tragic queer film about how repressiing yourself will destroy you from the inside out. that said the in-universe tara/isabel the pink opaque femslash fandom probably went so hard

YELLOWJACKETS 3.06 — Thanksgiving (Canada)

Rip Mari Ibarra you would've loved the popularization of the word cunt

I Saw the TV Glow is such a uniquely, devastatingly queer story. Two queer kids trapped in suburbia. Both of them sensing something isn’t quite right with their lives. Both of them knowing that wrongness could kill them. One of them getting out, trying on new names, new places, new ways of being. Trying to claw her way to fully understanding herself, trying to grasp the true reality of her existence. Succeeding. Going back to help the other, to try so desperately to rescue an old friend, to show the path forward. Being called crazy. Because, to someone who hasn’t gotten out, even trying seems crazy. Feels crazy. Looks, on the surface, like dying.

And to have that other queer kid be so terrified of the internal revolution that is accepting himself that he inadvertently stays buried. Stays in a situation that will suffocate him. Choke the life out of him. Choke the joy out of him. Have him so terrified of possibly being crazy that he, instead, lives with a repression so extreme, it quite literally is killing him. And still, still, he apologizes for it. Apologizes over and over and over, to people who don’t see him. Who never have. Who never will. Because it’s better than being crazy. Because it’s safer than digging his way out. Killing the image everyone sees to rise again as something free and true and authentic. My god. My god, this movie. It shattered me.

thinking about how maddy/tara mentions working at build-a-bear in the monologue. thinking about how the most important part of the bear-stuffing ritual at build-a-bear is giving your stuffed animal a heart. thinking about tara and isabel's hearts in the freezer that mr. melancholy took from them. how the beauty of the pink opaque came from owen and maddy bestowing meaning upon it. can anyone hear me.

this is beautiful

doomed by the narrative but not to death. doomed to survive. doomed to stay alive inside the story. doomed to never escape the narrative, not even through death. you are allowed no exit. there is no way out for you and there never was. you couldn’t die if you wanted to. the narrative has a hold on you and it won’t let go. death is too sweet a doom for you. the story has something much worse in mind. there is no way out.

thinking a lot about the almost.. homoeroticism of isabel and tara’s relationship (or at least the glimpses we get of it) and its implications in relation to maddy and owen’s
