[spoilers] yes lisa frankenstein is a wonderful, campy, cute good-fo-her adaptation for all the austen/shelley/bronte-loving weird girlies but what I keep thinking about is how it's also a meditation on how society doesn't want/ doesn't want to deal with female trauma (and weird girls). the way lisa's (enfuriatingly) deabeat dad barely looks at lisa but embraces taffy (who is 'successfully' a girl: happy, pretty, and not posing problems for anyone), the way those neighbours literally ignore lisa as she is chased by an intruder (who is literally a parallel to the axe murderer that killed her mom) - lisa's trauma is seen as some kind of wilful refusal to fit into the status quo and even makes her the target of further (gleeful) abuse by her stepmom (who threatens to literally lock her away for being 'weird'). and it's not just a lisa thing; the scene that struck me was taffy, covered in blood, crying, traumatised, and that stranger who looks and then ignores her. taffy as a popular girl and cheerleader and daddy's darling is always looked at favourably, alsways an object of positive attention-- right up until she has a problem. anyway and then something something about lisa finding companionship in another other and her choosing (un)death as a radical escape from and rejection of this status quo that cannot/ doesn't want to accomodate her and many more thoughts but that's all for now thank you
You ever look in the mirror and find you can't even comprehend the person looking back at you? That's what this piece is for me. Drawn with colored pencil on black card. I really enjoy experimenting with surrealism, it's helping me vent a lot of mental health issues and feelings I've been having recently.
Fixating hard on Across the Spiderverse so I drew this Gwen piece to sate the obsession for now. Saying that I am going to see it for the third time later this week. Drawn with coloured pencils on A4 black card.
Please take the time to check out the multiple works by Rezonate, a Filipino motion design studio on their official Instagram page. They recently dedicate a 30 second love letter to lgbtqia representation in animation history.
Okay so can someone give me some reasons that Misha is a bad person? Saw a comment and got curious. Advice was to look at the anti misha tag but all I can see are people being vehemently toxic about a person that from what I can see is just because they find him annoying? People can not like Misha I don’t really care, I just wanted to know if he had actually done anything that was actually problematic and not just fandom drama. Also he came out as bi but a lot of people are saying he actually came out as straight? Even just a link or website with details would be greatly appreciated
