Ohhhh You Want Taylor Swift And Jack Antonoff To Stop Working Together So Much? Do You Also Want The

YELLOWJACKETS S3E1 // S3E10

just for the record I cried at the end of 'i saw the tv glow' but I also cried at the part where all Maddy's labels on the tapes are showing up on the screen and it's talking about Maddy taping the episodes for Owen. because that's such a specific type of love and it made me weep.

hrrr I Saw the TV Glow is still rolling around in the back of my mind. it's hitting me somewhat belatedly that what seemingly starts as mainly an identity story turns out - toward the final act - to also be a love story. two queer kids finding each other (again). the bond they forge (have always had). the feelings that start to grow (were always there) despite the lie they're living. one trying to save the other, and failing. the frail hope at the end that maybe what they had mattered after all, even if they never see each other again. maybe because they knew each other, someday things will be better.

idk. so much of the story feels so lonely. they're awkward with each other at first and they don't really "get" each other and they're absent from each other's lives for long periods and they don't have anyone else. but it's all a lie - they were best friends, they knew each other better than anyone, they are who they are because they knew each other, they were not alone. no matter how bleak the setting is, this fake world can't obscure the truth. they'll never forget each other. it will always have happened, it will always have mattered.

it's so hard to put into words but Owen/Isabel and Maddy/Tara make me so crazy, the way everything in the world works to drive them apart and yet not even losing their memories can destroy the connection between them. and it's not enough to prevent the world from tearing them apart but maybe it's enough to save their lives

queer love portrayed not as supernaturally resilient or invincible (god knows it isn't), but as a precious fragile thing that can and will grow back over and over in some form no matter what ...

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.

canonically lesbian ships are like “erm!! I like this girl…. and its so weird >_<!!” and then queerbaited lesbian ships are like Are you quoting beaches at me right now? Im not jealous of you, Jackie. I feel sorry for you. Because you’re weak, and I think that deep down you know it. And i’m sure that everyone back home is so fucking sad to be losing their perfect little princess! But they’ll never know how tragic, and boring, and insecure you really are. Or how high school was the best your life was ever gonna get.

what if you were POOR and then you got a GIRLFRIEND who was always SINGING and then she DUMPED YOU and then you got elected PRESIDENT and then some district 12 rando ALSO HAD A GIRLFRIEND THAT SINGS and then he tries to BLOW UP YOUR CHILD DEATH ARENA and then ANOTHER district 12 rando can SING AND BLOWS UP YOUR CHILD DEATH ARENA and then she doesn’t SHOOT YOU but you still DIED

i know it was not the point of i saw the tv glow but like i am very interested in the pink opaque and i really want them to make a limited edition tie in episode guide like they made a limited edition physical copy of the babadook book
