liret didn't get birthday art because she was away for her birthday. I remedy that NOW.
( what, more ridiculous wallpapers? When will you stop, Tea? WHEN WILL YOU STOP? )
Finally, for the thing I mention in the video and sexist fucking assholes at movies. ( spoilers for shutter )
On that note, I've been thinking about the Final Girl phenomenon a lot tonight. More on that later. Why is it that women are so often the protagonists of horror stories? I'm not sure. I am trying to figure out what it has to do with gender stereotypes. I know a lot of people cite Halloween when they talk about the origins of final girls, but you see the makings of them in characters before that-- the two girls in The Haunting of Hill House-- jeeze, even The Turn of the Screw has a proto-Final-Girl.
I'm sure smarter people than I have have written smarty pants stuff about it. Any recs?
