This is a broad one, so take it whatever direction you wish: what are five shows, actors, or creative teams that have exceeded your expectations or pleasantly surprised you?
WOW. I struggle with broad asks because there's so much I like and think about.
Nadao Bangkok
Tumblr media
I loved Nadao Bangkok so much. I had basically only engaged with really stylish Thai movies and media before BL. It's the kind of stuff you see at film festivals. I was not really used to the quick and efficient production processes and talent pools of the TV show production of BLs. I adapted, but it was such a relief to watch things like Project S, I Told Sunset About You, I Promised You the Moon, and Great Men Academy. I also just adore the talent they cultivated and how so many Nadao alums are still doing things in entertainment. They really did something special there.
Koisenu Futari (2022)
Tumblr media
We talk so much about about representation and wanting to see more kinds of stories. I really loved the way this story explored the spectrum of asexuality alongside loneliness and the search for companionship. I love that it's a story about people who all care about each other, but they are all out of alignment for various reasons. I love that so many of the relationships don't resolve in a way that pairs people in an expected way. The sister left her cheating husband, Sakuko and Takashi don't live together, and Kazu was actually able to just be her friend. It's an unexpected delight.
For the Boys (2021)
youtube
I will never stop pimping this show out. Many of the folks are new to BL and queer TV in general, so they don't even remember Noah's Arc. I've been wanting more shows about black queer friend groups, and this show delivered. Every week I check on Slay TV to see what else they're up to. This show features a femme/GNC character finding their way through presenting publicly and dating, a fat black gay man struggling with body image and race identity issues, and a promiscuous black gay man struggling with his place in the world. It's a nuanced look at queer friendship, and I really wish more people would watch it.
Ossan's Love: In the Sky (2019)
Tumblr media
I already apologized to this show once, but I'll bring it up again. This AU season could have been a real flop, but in some ways it's my favorite. I love doing an AU as a way to soft reboot your characters and dig deeper into their interiority before returning to them years later. I like Haruta so much more because of this season. I also really love the bonds between men in this series and the ways they push each other. It's really excellent, and this is a special franchise we have been lucky enough to return to multiple times.
Sherri and Teri Polo on The Fosters (2013-2018)
Tumblr media
In an era where almost every TV lesbian died, these two delivered some of the best onscreen chemistry I've ever seen. They felt like a married couple for the entirety of a dramatic and often-messy Freeform (formerly ABC Family) TV show. We talk about Business Gay Performance (BGP) around here a lot, and these two are masters of their craft. At no point did you ever think these two actresses were secretly dating or cheating on their partners, but they were open about how much they loved each other and how important the friendship they built on this show was to them. I have immense admiration for the work they did and continue to do in the queer space. We are really lucky that these two took on the role of playing loving moms to all them kids, who got to also got to have a romantic and sexual relationship with each other onscreen.
Thank you for the ask! Since it wasn't explicitly BL, I decided to have some fun.

GAME #11
WITH ARAB / MUSLIM MEN #1
Hello dear readers!
Today we find ourselves for another game, but this time not with famous men.
They are 9 unknown Arab men, each one has a number and I invented an identity for them. Arab/Muslim men are the subject of deserved reverence, due to their undeniable beauty, strength and natural virility. Of course one can also be Arab or Black and worship Arab men. In short, I am a white French boy, as you know, and I imagined a first name, a nationality, an age and a social status for these 9 men.
The game rule is : you choose a fantasy / kink to fulfill for each man. And there's a bonus fantasy, which makes it easier for you to make your choices if one of the fantasy doesn't appeal to you.
First I introduce you to the nine Arab males, then I describe the fantasies / kinks (some look like short stories, you'll see), and finally I present my personal answers.
Do not hesitate to write me in comment your answers (you are obviously not obliged to choose fantasies for the nine men), I am interested in knowing them.
Do not hesitate to write to me also if you like this kind of game and if you want others (on Arabs or on other types of men), and perhaps on specific themes (historical characters or from cinema / literature, characters that I invent, celebrities, men with a specific physique or social class...).
In short, I'm full of ideas but don't hesitate to share yours with me so that these games (which, personally, I really like) remain an exchange between you and me.
THE 9 ARAB MEN YOU CAN CHOSE
1. RAMZHA: Ramzha is a 37-year-old Moroccan who monitors the beaches. Behind his appearance of virility hides a tender and protective man.
2. NASER: Naser is a 22 year old student from Tunisia. He loves to make jokes and is very seductive.
3. MOULOUD: Mouloud is a 33-year-old Iranian who is a salesperson in a clothing store. He's stylish, cool and funny.
4. RACHID: Rachid is a 36-year-old Turkish man who owns his own business. Intelligent, he has a natural self-confidence and likes to enjoy life, while being a cultured and very organized person.
5. ZINEB: Zineb is a 25 year old Libyan who sells drugs in his neighborhood, he is rather poor and hangs out with his friends. His demeanor is that of a cold and distant man. A little desperate, he takes refuge in video games when he has nothing else to do.
6. MOHAMMED: Mohammed is a 42 year old Algerian who is a millionaire, lives in luxury and comfort. He is authoritative but knows how to laugh from time to time, even with those who serve him (employee and servant).
7. ZINEDINE: Zinedine is a 45-year-old Egyptian. He is a car repairer, gets along well with his colleagues. He is hardworking, but he is also very sporty, almost brutal. On the other hand, he likes to relax by watching movies and series.
8. OMAR: Omar is a 24 year old Iraqi. He is a thieving beggar who likes to hit the weak. Due to a difficult childhood, he developed a penchant for cruelty. So he happens to hit those he steals.
9. KHALIL: Khalil is a model from Saudi Arabia. He is aged 26 years old. Due to his obvious good looks, he turned to modeling. Tasting fame and being obeyed by menial employees, he considered a career in acting. His obvious charisma and his hot-male mentality make him an arrogant and narcissistic man, who nevertheless knows how to be cuddly with the people he loves.

THE KINKS / FANTASIES TO ASSOCIATE
A. You are his personal footlicker. Since you're a foot fetishist, you kept looking at his feet, and he noticed. One day he asked you to massage his feet, you agreed and he ordered you to lick his feet. You wanted it so badly so you didn't hesitate for a second and you swallowed the dirt from his soles, the grime between his toes, the sweat and you sniffed the smell of his feet. Since that day, every time he wants his feet licked, you're the one who takes care of it and you're happy about it.
B. You are his adoptive brother. You were an orphan and his family took you in when you were young. Growing up, he was always as protective as he was dominating: he doesn't hesitate to make slightly disgusting jokes to laugh at your humiliation, like farting in your face or throwing his dirty socks in your face. However, he is always there to fight for you if you have a problem.
C. You are his employee. You work for him, he makes you do things for which he takes credit because he does almost nothing or is so charismatic that no one even notices you.
D. You are his moneyslave. You give him money. At first it was you who paid him for the honor of licking his feet or his ass or his armpits (or all three), but since then he forces you to give him money and also to pay for his groceries. You no longer buy anything for yourself because you like it when he rewards you by giving you his old underpants, or a pair of socks or a T-shirt that he has worn several days (or weeks) in a row and in which he played sports and worked.
E. You are his cleaning man. It's up to you to do the household chores for him: cooking, cleaning the dishes, washing clothes, putting things away, shopping, scouring the toilets, polishing his shoes... He has no regard for you expect everything to be ready when he gets home and if he sees you working he laughs at you for being so submissive.
F. You are his human toilet. He captured you and took humiliating and degrading photos of you. He threatened to send them to your loved ones if you didn't accept the other choice he offered you. Naively, you agreed to take the other option. He then knocked you out. When you woke up, you were immobilized, as if you were a mummy. A tube was attached to your mouth and you had no way to remove it. That's when several thick, smelly droppings came into your mouth. You had no choice but to swallow. He had installed you in the basement of his house to shit you and piss in your mouth. When he wasn't home he would encourage his friends to use his bathroom so you would be continually fed my shit and the piss of mostly Arab men. It was your only nutrition.
G. You are his lover. He seduced you, you fell madly in love with him and you haven't left each other since. You love him more than anything and even if he dominates in your couple, he respects you and loves you sincerely for the good that you bring him.
H. You are his human chair. He puts his ass on your head, either with his pants or his underpants, or with his bare ass directly. He sometimes farts, but he especially likes to put his ass on his head, to feel the softness of your skin under his ass. You find it hard to support his weight but you still like it, and it doesn't matter to you whether his ass is washed or not.
I. You are his son-in-law. Your father or your mother couldn't resist the obvious charm of an Arab male. Since your father/mother got married to him, he is the head of the family. You have to obey him, you lick his feet as soon as your father / your mother is not there, and you are the servant of the couple, because your father / your mother always gives him priority (your father / your mother gives him money if he needs it, always agrees with him, spends more time with him, laughs at all his jokes,.....).
BONUS. You are his miniature / tiny slave. You have been miniaturized and he uses you for his entertainment, in particular by putting you in his ass so that he farts on you, or in his sock so that you absorb his sweat and he crushes you with his big foot.
.
MY PERSONAL ANSWERS:
1. A.: Being the licker of Moroccan RAMZHA's feet (37 years old). I'm sure after (or during) his workday at the beach, he'll want to have his feet licked.
2. G. : Being the boyfriend of the Tunisian student Naser (22 years old). I like his personality and his face, I'm sure being with him wouldn't be boring and even if he's dominant in bed we can share things on a daily basis.
3. C. : Being the employee of the Iranian salesman MOULOUD (33 years old). I almost made him my lover, but in the END I photo he smokes, and I could never date a smoker (bordering on sex, but not be in a relationship with him). I'm sure he'd be the type to take credit for the tasks he made me do.
4. D.: Being the moneyslave of RACHID, the 34-year-old Turkish boss. I don't want to give away my money (I don't have any anyway) but if I were a man's cash slave, he would have to be very handsome. It makes you want to pay if it's to lick the sweat off the socks and inhale the stench of Rachid.
5. F.: Being the human toilet ZINEB, the 25-year-old Libyan. He whom I imagined as a sad man, I'm sure it would amuse him to know that he has a (white) boy who replaces his toilet. He would give access to his house to all his family and friends who would take pleasure in knowing that their rubs were eaten and their piss drunk by a (white) slave.
6. I.: Being the son-in-law of MOHAMMED, the 42-year-old Algerian millionaire. My real parents could never be in a relationship with an Arab man, but I would find it exciting if I had a father who becomes the obedient companion of a very rich Algerian who makes me lick his feet in front of my father!
7. E.: Being the cleaner for ZINEDINE, the 45-year-old Egyptian who repairs cars. After spending his day at work, he would enjoy relaxing knowing that everything was done for him.
8. BONUS: Being the tiny slave of OMAR, the 24-year-old Iraqi beggar. I'm sure that poor man would feel less unhappy if he knew he had what even rich men don't have: a slave! As I am tiny he could easily hide me.
9. H.: Being the human chair for KHALIL, the 26-year-old Saudi model. After his shooting days or when he's not needed on set or to prepare for the fashion show/photoshoot, he lays his face on my ass.

JEU #11
AVEC DES MÂLES ARABES #1
Bonjour à tous chers lecteurs ! Aujourd'hui on se retrouve pour un autre jeu, mais cette fois-ci pas avec des hommes célÚbres. Ce sont 9 hommes Arabes inconnus, chacun a un numéro et je leur ai inventé une identité.
Les hommes Arabes / Musulmans font l'objet d'une vĂ©nĂ©ration mĂ©ritĂ©e, en raison de leurs indĂ©niables beautĂ©, force et virilitĂ© naturelle. Bien sĂ»r on peut aussi ĂȘtre Arabe ou Noir et vĂ©nĂ©rer les hommes Arabes.
Bref, moi je suis un garçon blanc Français, comme vous le savez, et j'ai imaginé un prénom, une nationalité, un ùge et un statut social pour ces 9 hommes.
Le jeu consiste à choisir un fantasme à réaliser pour chaque homme. Et il y a un fantasme bonus, ce qui vous permet de faire vos choix plus facilement si l'un des fantasmes ne vous plaßt pas.
Tout d'abord je vous présente les neuf mùles Arabes, puis je vous décrit les fantasmes (certains ressemblent à des histoires courtes, vous verrez), et enfin je vous présente mes réponses personnelles.
N'hĂ©sitez Ă  m'Ă©crire en commentaire vos rĂ©ponses (vous n'ĂȘtes Ă©videmment pas obligĂ© de choisir des fantasmes pour les neuf hommes), cela m'intĂ©resse de les connaĂźtre.
N'hĂ©sitez pas Ă  m'Ă©crire aussi si vous aimez ce genre de jeu et si vous en voulez d'autres (sur les Arabes ou sur d'autres types d'hommes), et peut-ĂȘtre sur des thĂšmes prĂ©cis (personnages historiques ou issus du cinĂ©ma / de la littĂ©rature, personages que j'invente, cĂ©lĂ©britĂ©s, hommes avec un physique ou une classe sociale prĂ©cise....).
Bref je regorge d'idées mais n'hésitez pas à me faire part des vÎtres pour que ces jeux (qui, à titre personnel, me plaisent beaucoup) restent un échange entre vous et moi.
.
LES 9 HOMMES ARABES / MUSULMANS
1. RAMZHA : Ramzha est un Marocain de 37 ans qui surveille les plages. DerriÚre son apparence de virilité se cache un homme tendre et protecteur.
2. NASER : Naser est un étudiant Tunisien de 22 ans. Il adore faire des blagues et est trÚs séducteur.
3. MOULOUD : Mouloud est un Iranien de 33 ans qui est vendeur dans une boutique de vĂȘtements. Il est stylĂ©, cool et drĂŽle.
4. RACHID : Rachid est un Turc de 36 ans qui est le patron de sa propre entreprise. Intelligent, il a une confiance en lui naturelle et aime profiter de la vie, tout en étant quelqu'un de cultivé et trÚs organisé.
5. ZINEB : Zineb est un Libyen de 25 ans qui vend de la drogue dans son quartier, il est plutÎt pauvre et traßne avec ses potes. Son comportement est celui d'un homme froid et distant. Un peu désespéré, il se réfugie dans les jeux vidéos quand il n'a rien d'autre à faire.
6. MOHAMMED : Mohammed est un AlgĂ©rien de 42 ans qui est millionnaire, vit dans le luxe et le confort. Il est autoritaire mais sait rire de temps en temps, mĂȘme avec ceux qui le servent (employĂ© et serviteur).
7. ZINEDINE : Zinedine est un Égyptien de 45 ans. Il est rĂ©parateur de voitures, s'entend bien avec ses collĂšgues. Il est travailleur, mais il est aussi trĂšs sportif, presque brutal. D'un autre cĂŽtĂ©, il aime se dĂ©tendre en regardant des films et des sĂ©ries.
8. OMAR : Omar est un Irakien de de 24 ans. C'est un mendiant voleur qui aime taper des faibles. En raison d'une enfance difficile, il a développer un penchant pour la cruauté. Ainsi il lui arrive de taper ceux qu'il vole.
9. KHALIL : Khalil est un mannequin originaire d'Arabie Saoudite. Il est ĂągĂ© de 26 ans. En raison de sa beautĂ© Ă©vidente, il s'est tournĂ© vers le mannequinat. GoĂ»tant Ă  la cĂ©lĂ©britĂ© et au fait d'ĂȘtre obĂ©i par des employĂ©s serviles, il envisage une carriĂšre d'acteur. Son charisme Ă©vident et sa mentalitĂ© de beau gosse font de lui un homme arrogant et narcissique, qui sait pourtant se montrer cĂąlin avec les gens qu'il aime.

LES FANTASMES À CHOISIR
A. Tu es son lĂ©cheur de pieds personnel. Comme tu es fĂ©tichiste des pieds, tu n'arrĂȘtais pas de regarder en direction de ses pieds, et il l'a remarquĂ©. Un jour il t'a demandĂ© de lui masser les pieds, tu as acceptĂ© et il t'a ordonnĂ© de lĂ©cher ses pieds. Tu en avais tellement envie alors tu n'as pas hĂ©sitĂ© une seconde et tu as avalĂ© la saletĂ© de ses semelles, la crasse entre ses orteils, la sueur et tu as reniflĂ© l'odeur de ses pieds. Depuis ce jour, chaque fois qu'il veut se faire lĂ©cher les pieds, c'est toi qui t'en charge et tu en es heureux.
B. Tu es son frÚre adoptif. Tu étais orphelin et sa famille t'a recueilli quand tu es étais jeune. En grandissant, il s'est toujours montré aussi protecteur que dominateur : il n'hésite pas faire des blagues un peu dégoûtants pour rire de ton humiliation, comme péter sur ton visage ou te jeter ses chausettes sales au visage. Cependant, il est toujours là pour se battre pour toi si tu as un problÚme.
C. Tu es son employĂ©. Tu travaille pour lui et il te fait faire des choses dont il s'attribue le mĂ©rite parce-que lui ne fait presque rien ou alors est tellement charismatique que l'on ne te remarque mĂȘme pas.
D. Tu es son moneyslave. Tu lui donnes de l'argent. Au début c'était toi qui le payais pour avoir l'honneur de lécher ses pieds ou son cul ou ses aisselles (ou les trois), mais depuis il te force à lui donner de l'argent et aussi à payer pour ses courses. Tu n'achÚtes plus rien pour toi car tu aimes lorsqu'il te récompense en te donnant son vieux caleçon, ou une paire de chausettes ou un tee-shirt qu'il a porté plusieurs jours (ou semaines) de suite et dans lequel il a fait du sport et il a travaillé.
E. Tu es son homme de mĂ©nage. C'est Ă  toi de faire les tĂąches mĂ©nagĂšres pour lui : cuisine, nettoyage de la vaisselle, lavage des vĂȘtements, ranger les affaires, faire les courses, rĂ©curer les toilettes, cirer ses chaussures.... Il n'a aucun regard pour toi, s'attend Ă  ce que tout soit prĂšs Ă  son arrivĂ©e chez lui et s'il te voit en train de travailler il se moque de toi pour ĂȘtre aussi soumis.
F. Tu es sa toilette humaine. Il t'a capturé et a pris des photos de toi humiliantes et dégradantes. Il a menacé de les envoyer à tes proches si tu n'acceptait pas l'autre choix qu'il t'offrait. Naïvement, tu as accepté de prendre l'autre option. Il t'a alors assommé. Quand tu t'es réveillé, tu étais immobilisé, comme si tu étais une momie. Un tube était attachée à ta bouche et tu n'avais aucun moyen de le retirer. C'est alors que sont rentrées dans ta bouche plusieurs crottes épaisses et malodorantes. Tu n'avais pas d'autres choix que d'avaler. Il t'avait installé dans le sous sol de sa maison pour te chier et pisser dans la bouche. Quand il n'était pas à la maison, il encourageait ses amis à utiliser ses toilettes pour que tu sois continuellement nourri à ma merde et la pisse d'hommes majoritairement arabes. C'était ta seule nutrition.
G. Tu es son amoureux. Il t'a sĂ©duit, tu es tombĂ© fou amoureux de lui et depuis vous ne vous quittez plus. Tu l'aimes plus que tout et mĂȘme qu'il domine dans votre couple, il te respecte et t'aime sincĂšrement pour le bien que tu lui apporte.
H. Tu es sa chaise humaine. Il pose son cul sur ta tĂȘte, sois avec son pantalon ou son caleçon, soit avec son cul nu directement. Il lui arrive de pĂ©ter, mais il aime surtout poser son cul sur tĂȘte, ressentir la douceur de ta peau sous son cul. Toi tu as du mal Ă  supporter son poids mais tu aimes quand mĂȘme cela, et peu t'importe que son cul soit lavĂ© ou pas.
I. Tu es son beau-fils. Ton pÚre ou ta mÚre n'a pas réussi à résister au charme évident d'un mùle arabe. Depuis que ton pÚre / ta mÚre s'est mise en couple avec lui, il est le chef de la famille. Tu dois lui obéir, tu lui lÚche les pieds dÚs que ton pÚre / ta mÚre n'est pas là, et tu es le serviteur du couple, car ton pÚre / ta mÚre lui donne toujours la priorité (ton pÚre / ta mÚre lui donne de l'argent s'il en a besoin, lui donne toujours raison, passe plus de temps avec lui, rigole à toutes ses blagues,.....).
BONUS. Tu es son esclave miniature. Tu as été miniaturisé et il t'utilise pour son divertissement, notamment en te mettant dans son cul pour qu'il te pÚte dessus ou alors dans sa chaussette pour que tu absorbes sa sueur et qu'il t'écrase avec son grand pied.
.
MES RÉPONSES PERSONNELLES :
1. A. : Être le lĂ©cheur des pieds du marocain RAMZHA (37 ans). Je suis sĂ»r qu'aprĂšs (ou pendant) sa journĂ©e de travail Ă  la plage, il aura envie de se faire lĂ©cher les pieds.
2. G. : Être le petit ami de l'Ă©tudiant Tunisien NASER (22 ans). J'aime sa personnalitĂ© et son visage, je suis sĂ»r qu'ĂȘtre avec lui ne serait pas ennuyeux et que mĂȘme s'il est dominant au lit on pourra partager des choses au quotidien.
3. C. : Être l'employĂ© du vendeur Iranien MOULOUD (33 ans). J'ai failli faire de lui mon amoureux, mais sur la photo il fume, et je ne pourrais jamais sortir avec un fumeur (Ă  la limite du sexe, mais pas ĂȘtre en couple avec lui). Je suis sur qu'il serait du genre Ă  s'attribuer le mĂ©rite des tĂąches qu'il m'aurait fait faire.
4. D. : Être le moneyslave de RACHID, le patron Turc de 34 ans. Je n'ai pas envie de donner mon argent (j'en ai pas d'ailleurs) mais si j'Ă©tais le cash slave d'un homme il faudrait qu'il soit trĂšs beau. Cela donne envie de payer si c'est pour lĂ©cher la sueur des chausettes et respirer la puanteur de Rachid.
5. F. : Être la toilette humaine ZINEB, le Libyen de 25 ans. Lui que j'ai imaginĂ© comme un homme triste, je suis sĂ»r que ça l'amuserait de savoir qu'il a un garçon (blanc) qui remplace ses toilettes. Il donnerait l'accĂšs de sa maison Ă  toute sa famille et ses amis qui prendraient du plaisir Ă  savoir que leurs frottĂ©s sont mangĂ©es et leur pisse bue par un esclave (blanc).
6. I. : Être le beau-fils de Mohammed, le millionaire AlgĂ©rien de 42 ans. Jamais mes vrais parents ne pourraient ĂȘtre en couple avec un homme arabe, mais je trouverais ça excitant, si j'avais un pĂšre qui devient le compagnon obĂ©issant d'un algĂ©rien trĂšs riche qui me fait lĂ©cher ses pieds devant mon pĂšre !
7. E. : Être l'homme de mĂ©nage de Zinedine, l'Ă©gyptien de 45 ans qui rĂ©pare des voitures. AprĂšs avoir passĂ© sa journĂ©e Ă  travailler, il prendrait plaisir Ă  de dĂ©tendre en sachant que tout a Ă©tĂ© fait pour lui.
8. BONUS : Être l'esclave minuscule d'OMAR, le mendiant Irakien de 24 ans. Je suis sĂ»r que cet homme pauvre se sentirait moins malheureux s'il savait qu'il possĂšde ce que mĂȘme des hommes riches n'ont pas : un esclave ! Comme je suis minuscule il pourrait facilement me cacher.
9. H. : Être la chaise humaine de KHALIL, le mannequin saoudien de 26 ans. AprĂšs ses journĂ©es de tournage ou lorsqu'il n'est pas nĂ©cessaire qu'il soit prĂ©sent sur le plateau ou pour prĂ©parer le dĂ©filĂ© de mode / le photoshoot, il pose son visage sur mon cul.

By Carmen Maria Machado
In the second-to-last episode of The Last of Us, protagonist Ellie finds herself at the mercy of the leader of a religious community on the brink of starving to death. As the leader’s monstrosity reveals itself, we learn that the meat they’re all (barely) surviving on isn’t venison but the flesh of their dead. And season two of Yellowjackets has confirmed season one’s promise—that cannibalism is the way the titular girls’ soccer team endure the brutal conditions of the Canadian winter wilderness. In Bones and All (2022), two teenage cannibals fall in love. Fresh (2022), Dahmer (2022), and, going back a few years, Raw (2016), The Neon Demon (2016), and, of course, Hannibal (2013–2015)—Hollywood can’t get enough of this gruesome horror trope.
We have always been fascinated by cannibalism—its long and lurid history predates modern humans—but what does it say about this specific moment in time that  cannibalism is (forgive me) back on the cultural menu? Cannibalism is, ultimately, a type of story, one of our oldest. And right now it seems to be told in two urgent ways, at least on the (big and small) screen.
The first: hunger for human flesh as a metaphor for moneyed excess. Think of Fresh, in which the cannibalistic villain kidnaps and butchers young women for wealthy buyers. What do you get for the man who has everything? A beautiful woman’s buttocks, apparently. In these decadent narratives, lush and stylish visuals don’t feel out of line. In one Fresh scene, a slice of (human) breast is plated like a dish at a fine dining spot, glazed with a silky nut brown sauce and garnished with microgreens. And people couldn’t get enough of Hannibal’s food stylist Janice Poon and her macabre is-it-or-isn’t-it dishes—such as human tongues, presented to Dr. Hannibal’s dinner guests as lamb tongues and nestled artfully inside an origami lotus. They were arranged in elaborate tablescapes straight out of Dutch still lifes. (“Hannibal is a real GQ man, except for the cannibalism,” she also told, uh, GQ.) 
These narratives question the ethics of consumption. Meat becomes a literal metaphor: who’s at the top of the food chain and who’s at the bottom; who gets to eat whom. It’s played across gender, class, and appetites of all kinds—men eating women, the rich eating the poor. (Let’s not forget the phrase, “Eat the rich,” either.) For some, consuming others has become a part of their identities—like Hannibal’s eponymous gentleman sadist, who takes great pride in the beauty of his murderous accomplishments. For others, the practice can be horrifying—particularly for, somewhat obviously, the victims.
Cannibalism stories ask us to wrestle with thorny questions about what it means to eat the things we eat, or what it means to unmake something just like us in service of ourselves. It is a subject impossible to untangle from our human desire to consume, or the vulnerabilities that make us easy to be consumed. In her essay on cannibalism as metaphor for capitalism and feminism, Chelsea G. Summers—author of her own brilliant cannibal novel, A Certain Hunger—writes on the way the idea has infected our very language: “We don’t just win; we devour. We don’t just vanquish; we roast our rivals, and we eat them for breakfast. We go to bars described as meat markets in search of a piece of ass, and if we find a lover, we nibble, we ravish, we swallow them whole.” Cannibalism is a way of framing the capitalistic impulse to conquer; how the upper hand, so to speak, always goes straight to the mouth.
In this mode, fictional cannibalism can be campy, even comical, as it demonstrates how we are daily humiliated by the ridiculous rituals and demands of modern life. In Santa Clarita Diet, a suburban wife, mother, and real estate agent becomes a zombie who craves her neighbors’ flesh, and her family just has to matter-of-factly deal with the accompanying drama. Reader, the way I laughed during every gruesome episode! And Fresh starts out as a romance, with a meet-cute between the victim and her kidnapper in a grocery produce aisle; ultimately a satire of the nightmare of dating. 
But I am especially unsettled by the second kind of narrative, appearing in shows like The Last of Us and Yellowjackets: stories of desperation and survival, the breaching of an unthinkable taboo in the face of certain death. This reflects the most real-world examples of cannibalism, the ones closest to home. Think of the Uruguayan rugby team who survived in the Andes for two months in 1972 by eating their dead and comparing it to holy communion. Or the Donner Party. There are some subtleties here, in fiction and nonfiction alike—is it equally bad to kill a person to eat them as to eat someone who has already died of other causes?—but sometimes the distinction is irrelevant. Those who eat their kind become necessarily inhuman. Consider the fact that The Last of Us’ villainous cannibal preacher is also a pedophile. Or the Wendigo, a monster from real-life Indigenous tradition that—in some of those traditions—is created when a human being consumes human flesh.
Here, the genre is often stripped of its camp. Viewers find themselves wandering down a different avenue of horror—one that may feel particularly recognizable at the wake of a pandemic and the brink of a recession, amid today’s social, political, and environmental anxieties and inequities, when life already feels unbearably precarious for so many of us. It’s horror that demands answers about what we are, at the edge of things. Horror that asks a question that might be haunting you, in this current apocalyptic moment: What—or who—are you willing to consume in order to survive?

Enola Holmes (2020)
Tumblr media
When I first heard about Enola Holmes, I was apprehensive. “Why create a younger sister for Sherlock Holmes when you could just make the heroine part of her own, wholly new franchise?” but this story isn’t piggybacking on an established name. It’s forging its own identity with great new characters/interpretations of existing characters, a compelling mystery and a delightful, effortlessly charming performance by Millie Bobby Brown. With a sequel just released, if you still haven't seen this movie - or it's been a while - there's no better time to watch it than now.
Enola (Brown) is the youngest member of the Holmes family. Raised by her mother, Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter), the 16-year-old’s observation, deduction, and fighting skills have been finely honed. Despite this, she’s been ignored by her older brothers Sherlock (Henry Cavill) and Mycroft (Sam Claflin). When Mrs. Holmes disappears, her brothers finally come to visit but it’s made clear they expect little of her. Determined to prove she’s destined for more than what society expects, Enola runs away and begins her own investigation.
Right away, this movie proves it is not going to be more than a gender-swapped version of a familiar Sherlock Holmes tale. Enola has the same wit and eye for detail as her big brother but she’s much warmer and relatable. She’s also young and prone to making mistakes but quick to get back on her feet and more than sharp enough to run circles around those who would underestimate her. Her position as a young woman means her tactics are radically different from those you’d see her brothers use. There’s a running gag that she has to keep paying men her height to swap clothes with her so she can escape from someone or go back into an area that’s been marked off-limits (outfits and disguises wind up playing an important part of this story). Her frequent fourth-wall breaks, combined with the film’s stylish visuals flairs (credit to director Harry Bradbeer), Jack Thorne’s script, the original material by Nancy Springer and Brown’s radiating charisma make Enola an instant favorite.
It’s telling that we’ve gone on this long without talking about the mystery. There are several, and the way they are connected - assuming they are connected - isn’t obvious. The way they're solved is satisfying because where the clues fit is not easy to pinpoint. You won’t get any of those annoying shots that linger on some “mundane” object for a fraction too long - a clear giveaway that it isn’t mundane at all. A great example is Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge), a young Lord Enola befriends while escaping from the frequently cruel and unfeeling Mycroft. Is he tied to Eudoria somehow? Probably not but then why else is he being pursued by Burn Gorman’s character? Maybe he’s destined to be Enola’s Watson, or her love interest, or her Irene Adler? You want to know.
Enola Holmes is loads of fun. Even if you already know all the answers within the nicely-paced 123-minute running time, it holds up. The cast is so great they're just a delight to watch. Henry Cavill as Sherlock you completely believe. Same for Sam Claflin as his cold, mean and disinterested brother, Helena Bonham Carter as the free-spirited and fierce mother that raised Enola to be their equal (or soon-to-be equal, let’s give her a few years) and Louis Partridge as the everyman that’s stuck in the middle of all this. I knew the second I finished this film in 2020 that we’d get a sequel and if it’s as good as this, it won’t be the only one. (November 6, 2022)

By Carmen Maria Machado
In the second-to-last episode of The Last of Us, protagonist Ellie finds herself at the mercy of the leader of a religious community on the brink of starving to death. As the leader’s monstrosity reveals itself, we learn that the meat they’re all (barely) surviving on isn’t venison but the flesh of their dead. And season two of Yellowjackets has confirmed season one’s promise—that cannibalism is the way the titular girls’ soccer team endure the brutal conditions of the Canadian winter wilderness. In Bones and All (2022), two teenage cannibals fall in love. Fresh (2022), Dahmer (2022), and, going back a few years, Raw (2016), The Neon Demon (2016), and, of course, Hannibal (2013–2015)—Hollywood can’t get enough of this gruesome horror trope.
We have always been fascinated by cannibalism—its long and lurid history predates modern humans—but what does it say about this specific moment in time that  cannibalism is (forgive me) back on the cultural menu? Cannibalism is, ultimately, a type of story, one of our oldest. And right now it seems to be told in two urgent ways, at least on the (big and small) screen.
The first: hunger for human flesh as a metaphor for moneyed excess. Think of Fresh, in which the cannibalistic villain kidnaps and butchers young women for wealthy buyers. What do you get for the man who has everything? A beautiful woman’s buttocks, apparently. In these decadent narratives, lush and stylish visuals don’t feel out of line. In one Fresh scene, a slice of (human) breast is plated like a dish at a fine dining spot, glazed with a silky nut brown sauce and garnished with microgreens. And people couldn’t get enough of Hannibal’s food stylist Janice Poon and her macabre is-it-or-isn’t-it dishes—such as human tongues, presented to Dr. Hannibal’s dinner guests as lamb tongues and nestled artfully inside an origami lotus. They were arranged in elaborate tablescapes straight out of Dutch still lifes. (“Hannibal is a real GQ man, except for the cannibalism,” she also told, uh, GQ.) 
These narratives question the ethics of consumption. Meat becomes a literal metaphor: who’s at the top of the food chain and who’s at the bottom; who gets to eat whom. It’s played across gender, class, and appetites of all kinds—men eating women, the rich eating the poor. (Let’s not forget the phrase, “Eat the rich,” either.) For some, consuming others has become a part of their identities—like Hannibal’s eponymous gentleman sadist, who takes great pride in the beauty of his murderous accomplishments. For others, the practice can be horrifying—particularly for, somewhat obviously, the victims.
Cannibalism stories ask us to wrestle with thorny questions about what it means to eat the things we eat, or what it means to unmake something just like us in service of ourselves. It is a subject impossible to untangle from our human desire to consume, or the vulnerabilities that make us easy to be consumed.

Summers—author of her own brilliant cannibal novel, A Certain Hunger—writes on the way the idea has infected our very language: “We don’t just win; we devour. We don’t just vanquish; we roast our rivals, and we eat them for breakfast.

Helping Others from a Social Psychological Perspective
Observing Social Behaviors
Many phenomena offer opportunities to observe, learn and apply behaviors that are well known in the science of social psychology. Helping behaviors are only some of the social psychological examples that are apparent in interpersonal interactions. These behaviors can be observed in many locations. The observations recalled here will be based on several hours of people watching on the ocean front boardwalk in Ocean City, Maryland. The context can be described as an August afternoon in 2022. The sky was light blue with a few layers of light puffy white clouds in some areas. The air was thin even though the heat was strong. Waves were crashing hard with an array of boats pushing through them. Upon exiting the vehicle, a plane flew by with the question, "Will you marry me, Sede?" on the tagalong banner. The White Marlin Fest created an overwhelming amount of crowd members on the sands surrounding the inlet.
Upon walking to the boardwalk from the parking inlet, two men carried the beach chairs as their female friend posed while walking to take a selfie in her stylish and stringy bikini. The males' decision to carry the chairs for themselves and the female represents the empathy-altruism hypothesis. This helping behavior hypothesis refers to the motivation to improve the welfare of another from concerns stemming from an empathic concern for the other person. In this case, the males were much larger, more muscular, and probably considered that the shorter, smaller female might have trouble carrying the large beach chair. Perhaps, they were more concerned with the female's happiness, or acting from a place of being well-mannered. It's also possible that this helping hand, so to speak, was an act of reciprocal altruism. Perhaps, the female drove them to the beach or cared for the men in some other way, such as buying them food or simply being a good friend, or they hoped to gain some expectation of good deeds to come to them in the future from their generosity of carrying her chair, as well. There can be more than one reason why people help others, or there may simply be one motive. To better establish a more definitive explanation, observations would need to be made over a longer period of time with the same individuals. Given the limitations of making observations in an open environment where people are passing by, the attempt to gain a full assessment is not always possible.
Another observation, which seemed to repeat itself throughout the duration of the research time, was dads carrying the baby carriers, wearing the babies, and pulling the wagons while the moms and other family members were able to walk freely and relax. This particular helping behavior can be described by a plethora of behavioral explanations. Kin selection, which designates the primary goal as helping genetic relatives in hopes to heighten the likelihood of preserving the shared genetics (Kassin et al., 2020). The fathers may have felt like they could better keep their offspring safe in a potentially dangerous environment if they were carrying them or pulling the wagon in which they rested. Another explanation could have been empathy-altruism hypothesis if the fathers were concerned about the stress and discomfort the mothers or other family members may experience if the fathers would make them carry or pull the babies (Kassin et al., 2020). Yet another explanation could be reciprocal altruism in the sense that the other family members may be the primary caregivers to the baby, while the father works so he is trying to even the exchange of help within the relationships (Kassin et al., 2020). The negative state relief model could also be an explanation why the fathers chose to carry the babies and pull the babies in the wagons; maybe since mothers generally are more necessary in the earlier years and fathers commonly feel left out if breastfeeding is the primary vehicle of nutrition to the infant or fathers must be at work more than able to tend to the baby, they choose responsibility when possible to lessen their feelings of sadness from the opportunities of connection with their offspring that they miss (Kassin et al., 2020). Always possible is the egoistic theory in which the fathers may want to appear more helpful and necessary in the effort to ensure their own welfare (Kassin et al., 2020). Reluctant altruism is also a possibility as to why the fathers assumed the responsibility of pulling the babies in the wagons or carrying their babies. They may have felt indirectly forced to do so by societal expectation or because of peer pressures to fulfill the obligation (Kassin et al., 2020). Humans are interesting creatures. Many reasons can describe why certain people behave in a precise way, but not every situation is guaranteed to be the same as the next. More than one factor may contribute to a behavior. There may be a generalized explanation that could veil other reasons behind a particular helping behavior. All of the observations regarding a father carrying or pulling the baby were made with the families passing by the observation bench, so more data could not be assessed to gain a more definitive explanation.
Many mothers and a few grandmothers in particular reached down to adjust blankets on babies, feed babies, readjust babies in strollers, pick up the babies, clean the babies faces, etc. while the rest of the family members maintained their own personal efforts of fun in the sun. This most likely was an act of kin selection, empathy, empathy-altruism hypothesis, and/or reluctant altruism (Kassin et al., 2020). Kin selection was probably a large explanation for this maternal behavior because of maternal instincts to care for and protect the offspring to ensure survival of the genes and the offspring. Empathy and empathy-altruism hypothesis probably also motivated helping behaviors to the infants because mothers and grandmothers are often very empathic, feeling the needs and pains of others, especially babies and children. The reluctant altruism explanation is possible because even though mothers and mother figures enjoy caring for their babies and children more times than not, it is still quite possible that sometimes, they would rather be able to relax and enjoy themselves as well, wishing that someone else would tend the babies for once, yet they are expected by society to essentially provide for the children no matter what. Women are not always able to ask for help, depending on the cultural dynamics of the family.
The final observation of helping behaviors was between customers and establishments. Reciprocal altruism appeared to be the only real explanation as to the serving behaviors (Kassin et al., 2020). The servers and staff at tourist establishments expected wages, tips, and return customers to ensure wages, and the customers expected good service and solutions to their tourism challenges. These demands and expectations rely on reciprocal altruism in order to ensure ongoing survival of businesses, employment and overall livelihood.
Self-concept is a social psychological term that is applicable to each of the above observations (Kassin et al., 2020). Each person who engaged in any of the helping behaviors, as well as all of the other beachgoers, behaved from an understanding of their personal self-concept. Self-concept refers to the overall individual beliefs about one's attributes. Are they concerned with maintaining a self-belief of being a helper? Do they believe they are responsible? Does the person want to uphold their self-belief of being a good parent and/or employee? Each of these questions create a basis of personal attributes of which a person believes about oneself. In generally emotionally stable people, people thrive from a strong self-concept which helps to guide interpersonal interactions and personal life plans.
Social-comparison theory was undoubtedly a present phenomena for probably all beachgoers. The boardwalk is usually upheld as an equivalent as a catwalk at a modeling event. People of all ages will wear their best and buy swimsuits, clothes, adornments, bags, and gadgets to deliver the appearance of their best selves when visiting Ocean City, as well as many other tourist locations. People want to be photo ready, social media approved, and confident as they pass by many judgmental strangers and possibly run into people they may know who are also vacationing, or other locals who are enjoying another day in their normal life. Most people engage in attitudes that are specific to tourism and vacationing, as has been evident by the phrase, "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." When people go on vacation, they want to feel good and look good. They are portraying their reputation for others to take at face value in a moment's notice and not be made into the next world-wide social media joke. Thus, people consider if they look as good as the next person, potentially designating downward social-comparisons, or if the next person looks worse than them (Kassin et al., 2020). They try to make sure they appear to be the best parents, as attractive as possible, exemplify good financial status, and deliver the most self-enhancing style. This can be recalled from the female in the first example who was trying to take a selfie while her male friends carried all of their beach chairs. Seeing people walking and posing while angling the camera on their smart phones to capture the best selfie is extremely common in most parts of the world today.
Nonverbal behavior is one of the most significant phenomena involved in all of the above observations and considerations. All of the observations made were through nonverbal behavior. The observations were made from at least five-20 feet from the individuals who exhibited the helping behaviors. Words could not be heard. In many observations, words were not expressed by the people being observed. They merely helped others without verbal accompaniment. Facial expressions and body language were truly all that was observable (Kassin et al., 2020). Nonverbal behavior is how people are able to make first impressions and take in portrayals of photographs on social media. The common phrase has been "a picture is worth a thousand words" because nonverbal behavior has the capacity to speak volumes.
Attribution theory is the phenomena that ties all of the observations and potential explanations above together. That is essentially what attribution theory is: the grouping of behaviors that may explain why people do what they do. Every social behavior that was observed was given a possible explanation as to why the people in the observations engaged in those helping behaviors. Those social behaviors justified by the potential explanations are an example of how attribution theory works (Kassin et al., 2020).
Social psychology is an ever-present, always growing science that offers new and better understood phenomena by the day. Without the help of others, society would falter. Why people help others largely is caused by survival, but social psychology delves into the more subtle and micro-level reasons behind it.

The Northman (2022)
Tumblr media
The Northman sounds like a straightforward revenge story but the simple premise is deceitful. This is an emotionally complex epic of revenge. Marvelously shot, expertly directed and with a first-rate production that completely immerses you into its brutal world, this film is hard to shake.
In AD 895, King Aurvandill (Ethan Hawke) is murdered by his bastard brother Fjölnir (Claes Bang). As young Amleth watches his mother, Queen GudrĂșn (Nicole Kidman), taken away by his uncle, he swears revenge. Years later, Amleth (Alexander SkarsgĂ„rd) disguises himself as a slave and infiltrates Fjölnir the Brotherless’ village. With the help of fellow slave Olga of the Birch Forest (Anya Taylor-Joy), he prepares to make the new king pay for what he did.
You can see what I mean when I say this story sounds familiar. Bad uncle steals the throne. Good son goes away, grows up and comes back years later to get it back. In such stories, the hero and the villain are clearly defined. Not so much in The Northman. When we meet Amleth as a man, he and his fellow Vikings attack a village, massacre the few soldiers defending it (we even see Amleth fully embrace his “bear-wolf” identity by biting off chunks of a man’s neck), take some of the men and women as slaves, steal everything there is of value and lock all of the elderly and children in a building before setting it ablaze. They do it all with the same amount of remorse as your average Russian soldier stationed in Ukraine. This is our hero.
What we would call barbarism is normal for this world. All King Aurvandill talked about to his son was his desire to die at the edge of a sword. Only then would he be whisked away by a valkyrie and enter Valhöll (Valhalla)
 where he would spend eternity alongside the people who murdered him, since he told Amleth to avenge his death. Not only is it the will of men to slay each other, but it’s also the will of the gods: a prophecy by a Seeress (Björk) leads Amleth to a magical sword and more than once the supernatural intervenes in his favor.
As his retribution draws near, Amleth begins considering the future. His whole life has been about the past, about avenging his father and rescuing his mother. After magically speaking with his old friend (Willem Dafoe as Heimir the Fool), he realizes his victory is a foregone conclusion
 but then what? Will he settle down with Olga only to be slain some day by Fjölnir own son, his half-brother? Is he even capable of settling down when he’s spent his entire life cultivating hatred? And then, just when you think that maybe he would be better off just leaving Fjölnir alone
 you’re reminded that the current king is just as savage as his nephew. These people deserve each other. Best to just sit back and let their drama play out as intended, which puts you in the same position as Odin and the other gods.
The Northman is relentless and uncompromising. It's a distinct, stylish vision but not because of unnecessary flourished or weird choices. It’s the way writers Sjón & Robert Eggers mix complex themes with mythology that make The Northman feel like something completely new. It ain’t for the faint of heart but that’s exactly what makes it so brilliant. (August 9, 2022)
