I'd rather be thought of as an angry bitch of a woman than "one of the guys" in every and all parallel universes that exist throughout space time. And I mean, I also obviously have high levels of discernment. For instance, Ryan North can do no wrong to me and he has a decidedly white male name. Terry Pratchett, anyone? I will rant at you for days about how much I fucking loved the man.
His characters--all of them--were goddamn near perfect. Also, why do I always fucking have to do the whole notallmen bullshit when speaking up against sexism just so men and some idiot women will listen to me and not invalidate my argument as "emotional", "hysterical", etc.? Oh because of sexism, that's right. At the same time, though, why the fuck do people keep propping up men who can't write worth a shit and who are almost amazingly, jaw droppingly sexist Patrick Rothfuss I am looking at you Patrick Rothfuss I hate you with the fire and rage of a trillion O-Class stars no, seriously, if he comes to my state I will one woman protest him on a platform of praise and illumination?
Something important, something revolutionary. Because I know they exist hello, Samantha Bee. For instance, Bluebeard called Mr. Fox in other traditions is about, no joke, a serial rapist killer who goes around marrying young virgins. I'm the only person at my work who has heard of this tale work at a library , except I'm not. Almost everyone knows the archetypes and tropes in this tale. This tale in particular uses the "secret locked room but here's the key but also don't open it" archetype we see it also in The Howling Man there's another man I love Rod Mother Fucking Serling.
So Bluebeard marries another young virgin, and he always gives them the keys to his house and is like, "Bitch, now don't you go opening up my super secret door with this super secret key, ever!
Duh doi, open the door. And it's, duh doi, filled with the rotting carcasses of dead girls and torture tools. And what happens to her, duh doi, she's killed too. This is a fairy tale, a literal actual fairy tale. And, hello, dear writer of this piece of shit comic, that's actually what almost all fairy tales were about: scaring the shit out of young girls.
Like, take for instance, Red Riding Hood. For men, this tale is all funsy and games for them. For women, the symbolism is clear. It's a fairy tale about a girl who's just menstruated for the first time and is being chased by a fucking rapist wolf who "eats" them.
And the Lumberjack is the Good Man who women should want to fuck. What's that you say?? We still scare the shit out of young girls to this day, March 4th ? What's that you say? Seriously, where are all the fairy tales about men going to prison forever for raping women?
Why not scare the shit out of men: rape someone, your dick gets cut off. I'm being a little bit facetious, but I'm also not. Our society is fucked up and I'm fucking sick of it, and I say this as a woman of color who has been invalidated by both white men and women who can't get their heads out of their asses long enough to use their frontal lobes. If this makes you angry.
The point of this is to offend. Because this patriarchal white heteronormative male dominated society we live in today and have lived in for centuries offends the everliving fuck out of me. Welcome to the world of offense. And if you're a white man or woman that's all like, "Well, I, sniff, I don't, sniff, do that. Oh, well then yeah, yeah you do do this. If you're a white person who is like, "Little ole me can't change the world. I have to sell out and defy my morals in this capitalistic world.
I have to sell out for money and attention because money and attention are much more important than societal progress. It doesn't make a difference if I actively change my lifestyle to support the things I say I support but then don't actually, as in through action, support," then fuck off. You're an idiot who is actively holding humanity back. Also, just for shits and giggles, if you're a person who likes Bernie but refuses to vote for Hillary if she when she inevitably wins the nomination than congratulations!
You've just caused the apocalypse! Hey, I won't complain too much. I'll be too busy setting up my lawn chair and popping some kernels to watch the long overdue destruction of humanity. I will just keep going, fueled by ceaseless rage seriously, I will keep going until the exorbitant word count on this thing runs out , so I'll leave you with this. Glorious Margaret Atwood rewrote and, you know, actually subverted the tale of Bluebeard. So this chick marries this creepy dude and he gives her the keys and is like, "Yo, don't look in this room," and she does and Bluebeard comes back and chases her out onto the wharf with a weapon aiming to kill her, until the girl's mother comes riding up on this wild horse, her hair flying in the wind making her look like some ancient Valkyrie, and blows the fucking asshole's head of with a shotgun.
Now that, dear readers, is subversion. Jun 30, 78sunny rated it really liked it. Ich fand es richtig toll und sogar spannend. Die Zeichnungen sind der absolute Hammer. Ich liebe Woof, den Wolf. Die Story ist aber wirklich so gar nicht abgeschlossen. Man befindet sich mitten drin und hat noch nicht einmal eine Idee in welche Richtung der Autor eigentlich gehen wollte. Apr 10, Soobie's scared rated it really liked it Shelves: language-english , series-completed , fairy-tales , adventure , fumetti , fantasy , adaptation , magic , animals , read Jeez, I really love this graphic novel Too bad it took five years for the second volume to come out.
I wonder how long it will take for book The art is beautiful: it can be very dark at times but I really like the colors of this volume. I also like Red and Wolf's story: their quest seems really interesting and I wonder what they will find in the real world.
I also adored the way Punzel was described in here. But also Andersen is an appealing character. I'm looking forward to know more abo Jeez, I really love this graphic novel I'm looking forward to know more about Dorothy and Oz. They were introduce in the last panel but then Art gallery. Jeez, I hate art galleries: most of the times are just a waste of printable space. Oct 08, Nicole rated it really liked it. The story continues nicely so far.
I have to admit there are some parts that are confusing like how some fairy tales get turned into stone. So they slowly wither away into stone when their stories are being told less and less? What are some examples?
And I guess I want to know how and why FableLand started. Maybe I missed that part. Oct 19, Kayla rated it really liked it. This was a cool story but not as solid as the first volume.
