we need to make australian gothic bigger. abandoned gold towns because the veins all ran out except one family that refuses to leave. the lack of street signs once you’re 200km away from a city. towns having signs abt whether their water will kill you. the random nuclear waste storage areas. the fact that you have to accept that you will run over an already dead kangaroo or koala anytime you drive somewhere out in the country. every country town having two churches, one protestant, one catholic, and one of the either is always abandoned because everyone else in town ended up just taking one of the sides. the abandoned schools that had to be shut down by the state bc they had less that 10 students. the 2-5 snakebite deaths per year in small towns. the constant catholic imagery left over from the horrific mission schools. everyone using barbed wire as fences. there’s always a fire burning somewhere and you can’t tell if it’s a controlled crop burning or a bushfire because the landlines, are as always, broken. animal bones and skulls just lying around every field because the farmers dont bother to clean them up. the 6 metre deep lakes that go from being drought empty to full overnight despite there being no rainfall. the powerlines are broken again and you still can’t call home

“Two people who are constantly seeking experience rarely settle for each other. Two people enduring experience rarely meet in life.

That’s why Fabienne and I were meant for each other.

We were the perfect pair, one seeking all that the other could experience.”

Yiyun Li, The Book of Goose

For my mutuals who are into Westerns: you guys have got to check out how Australia has taken and re-invented the genre, they’re somehow even more fucked up than American Westerns. There’s a real Gothic sensibility hanging over the ones I’ve seen – some of that is due to the vast bleakness of the outback, but it’s mostly due to the understanding that much like in America, colonization damaged this place and the scars are still visible. It’s also an incredibly versatile genre – the Mad Max films count, for starters, and the Australian Gothic is a subgenre all its own. Nick Cave is a major contributor. IDK I think it’s very cool to explore what Westerns look like outside of the US
