the boys x my chemical romance

idk if this is anything but you can kind of view aeneas as a man that's unstuck from time. he sees the ghost of hector. he takes his eyes off his wife and she's now a ghost. he finds carthage, a city that won't be founded for hundreds of years. he carries the future of rome, he sees people not yet born when he's in the underworld. and so forth

Why do people talk about how harrowing Watership Down was but never mention Cowslip's warren... There are a group of anthropomorphic rabbits in this children's fantasy novel that have accepted their role as living meat. They've convinced themselves that to kick and struggle is to defy the will of a god confined to the tortured ramblings of their poet caste, who beg for their throats to snap under shining wire as their kin look on in polite fascination. They speak with lobotomised tongues and shun their culture for that of their devourers, pushing stones into walls, digging agoraphobic atriums under which to sit in silence, awaiting a fate they are forbidden to name. Why don't we talk about this

The Character Design of Hazbin Hotel

The output of the animation studio Spindle Horse has rapidly gone from the personal OC playspace of an enthusiastic animator to a merchandise-funded animation empire, attracting attention and financing from A24 and Amazon, besides doing millions and millions of views on YouTube.

Hazbin Hotel, the animated musical series that was picked up by Amazon Prime and which probably introduced a lot of people to the sensibilities of the studio's output, is in my opinion kind of a 7/10 sort of show, but it has attracted a fanbase that operates on K-pop stan levels of intensity. This is usually a pretty good sign that something interesting is going on artistically, so... let's have a look, I guess?

i liked this movie a lot

if you read and enjoyed dr jekyll & mr hyde (or the glass scientists), frankenstein, dorian gray, etc—odds are you’ll enjoy a much lesser-known but just as good gothic novel called the private memoirs and confessions of a justified sinner.

you can look up a much better summary than i can provide, but it’s an amazing early exploration of religious extremism and the indoctrination of young people, the nature of free will, mental psychoses, and human identity. not to mention the author’s commentary on scotland’s national identity.

it utilizes the gothic doppelgänger trope and explores dual identities in a way that is completely different from jekyll & hyde or dorian gray. our irredeemable main character is a wet dying baby bird found in a mouldy cardboard box at the side of the road with delusions of grandeur and religious trauma. he makes victor frankenstein look downright self-aware in comparison. oh yeah and the devil is there too btw

i’m literally just begging someone to read it it actually changed my brain chemistry
