Messing around on a sticky note
Mob being the opposite of this is so important to me
Why does everyone think fiction is just fantasy wish fulfillment now and not like an exploration of themes and ideas
People will be like “this movie is evil and gross because it depicts a predatory relationship” and then you watch the movie in question and it’s about how preying on young women is bad and impacts their lives negatively
“Why would they do this instead of just making everyone in the movie nice and normal and good” so we would have this conversation….
my manager and i have had conversations about this: he says a lot of people approach all media the same way they approach pornography, i.e. they want it to mirror back to them how they already feel or want to feel. the idea that the art might make you feel something new or different or unexpected, and the inherent risk of that, is scary to some folks sometimes

”im gonna make it hard to live
”And it ruins up her makeup and never wan' give
A cigarette pressed between her lips

It's the wrong way
Strong if I can, but I am only a man
So I take her to the can
It's the wrong way”
