Take it slow babe, I'm having too much fun with this xoxo.

I really hate it when people say that Mary Shelley probably based Victor Frankenstein on Lord Byron because as much as I enjoy seeing people write about my historical freak in their literature, she also just was very intelligent herself? Victor’s way of thinking overlaps so much with what we can see of her own way of thinking from her journals and letters. Why would she try to poke fun at Byron for being brooding and melancholic. Are we sure that she wasn’t just. Brooding and melancholic. You know. Women can be that as well. Not everything she made was an attempt at criticizing people we now universally think looked bad for some of their actions. She almost died prior to writing the novel trying to give birth are we sure she wasn’t just a highly intelligent but emotional teenager herself thinking a lot about life and death. Lord Byron was her best friend and she always wrote of him fondly after. She even wrote her own self as male in later books. How is Victor’s magnetism so consistently contributed to the men she knew and not just herself ugh

More about Mary Shelley: so far in analyzing Frankenstein I can’t even say she is trying to much critique what would happen if women were erased from the creation of life - it’s what she ends up depicting, sure, but from her own words it looks like she struggled with pretty severe internalized misogyny in a way very typical of her time. She was less radical than her half sister, Claire Clairmont, in that front (I would give up a limb to know what Claire’s lost manuscripts were about btw). She was 19 and asked to write a horror story, and she wrote about one of the worst things she dreamed about, which was the failure to create life. Adam is the ghost of her own anguish. It’s like Frankenstein depicts a version of her miscarriage where the death of her newborn is her fault, and the newborn knows this and hates her for it. I know this because this is exactly the kind of logic I also had in response to my trauma (because, yeah, a near deadly miscarriage is super fucking traumatic). I wish people could just allow for women to be people without needing to be a patron saint of feminism (as important as feminism is to me, more on that in a moment), the same way men are allowed to be human. Like yeah she was very smart, AND also human, and as much as I love her work, I don’t think we should assume an intentional message about female agency that at this point in time she pretty much COULDN’T have had the awareness and clarity for to come to said conclusion (accurate though it may be). She wrote the first science fiction novel, knew lots of science, all while a young adult, and that’s already a lot. She doesn’t have to be deified or mystified to be an admirable figure. That's, I think, the fatal flaw to this argument: women still need to be perfect in some way to count. It's a type of misunderstanding born in admiration but it's unfair nonetheless. Because of this, many people reading her letters end up finding her severely disorienting and bitchy, when really she may just have been a result of the time she lived in and the hardships she struggled with. Like, I don't know, all of us are. George Orwell is readily critiqued for his less than ideal beliefs, because his achievements matter in spite of that, but Mary Shelley has to be an example for all of us and is thus not allowed to just also be a teenage girl with flaws, and that's not a fair thing to expect before taking any of her achievements for what they are.

Anyway yes I’m hyperfixating on Mary and her friends when they went to Geneva and it’s just like. I relate so hard to these broken husks of people lmao hence these long rambles. I don’t know where else to post them I used to do this elsewhere but there’s Gedachten Op Mijn Hart Die Ik Moet Luchten because I miss writing essays

Protect the people.

Uhm, oeps. Misschien was dit zo uiten niet erg handig. Maar urgh, blijven praten over dat ik mijn tentamen moet halen laat me alleen maar meer klote voelen.. Ik weet het, for fucks sake. Het ligt echt niet aan het niet weten of niet willen dat mijn hoofd niet meewerkt.
Alles is kut van Spring Awakening blijft een mood..

Me when rightfully putting my gender as male on a site: “Wait but I’m a trans guy and don’t share the same experiences as cis men so it might be weird when I bring up experiences I had when still looking like a girl, maybe I should just put myself in there as though I’m a cis girl, I haven’t transitioned very far yet so it doesn’t really matter anyway, then I’ll blend in better and won’t make things awkward when I go into a disorienting ramble about feminism and seem like a performative man who is pretending to be ‘one of the good guys’”

Me when putting my gender as female on a site: “This is disgusting of me I Am A Wretch I’m a terrible man trying to sneak into women’s spaces tricking them into thinking I’m an innocent person even though thee knoweth that thou art Evil. Get off of this sacred ground, you dog”

I have Beef™️ with a teacher and when i received her feedback on my work, i first (for a good 10 min) tried not to let it get to me, as i was working in a quiet library, but ended up having to lock myself in a bathroom for a silent screaming crashout because what in the actual fuck was that🙃 fun times.
