and no i'm not going to talk about natalie being so good and skillful at keeping quiet during a hunt and listening for her surroundings as a direct result of her abusive upbringing, but we can all hold hands while we think about it collectively in silence
lottie sent a group of people to sexually assault travis, brainwashed him, forced him to take shrooms and caused a drug addiction, and fear-mongered everyone so much that they ruined their chances of rescue so i kinda dgaf that he tried to kill her sorry
It's so hilarious to me how in queer media that actually accurately represents queer people (adults) there's always some kind of murder or other unforgivable mistakes involved??? Like, yeah that's my favourite genre, but why is queer cinema always some kind of psychological thriller/horror, especially the old stuff. Give us a minute to BREATHE please. Someone always DIES. I can name so many examples on this I'm actually going to write a paper on it asap, because I just think it's both so funny and interesting but also disturbing.

missing my handsome butch princess
first time using clay since high school. he doesn't have a name yet.
I was just wondering if the yellowjackets fandom is smart enough to understand the racial history on why so many people are weirded out by how Mari's death was executed. The treament with Mari's body was disgusting, and so was Javi's. They both were treated like livestock, and before the Shuana stans get their panties in a twist and start yelling and screaming at the air hear me out.
Throughout history, POC bodies were ostracized and over-sexualized since who knows how long by their white counter parts, especially women of color. For example, the f3tishization of Latina and black women (i.e., "need me a black girl with butterfly locs" or "need me a spicy latina/torta")
The idea of Mari's body being stripped in the snow and hung upside-down should've never been discussed in the first place due to the hundreds of similar hate crimes that have been committed and justified against POC, i.e. lynch!ng and cutting hair. Hair is ridiculously important to many heritages, not just POC, so having a white character wear their victims hair as a trophy is disgusting, especially since Shauna is the main person who wanted to hunt Mari.
This show was never good at writing their POC characters. Most, if not all, of them fall into harmful sterotypes;
TAISSA: the angry black woman
Taissa is shown to be aggressive from the pilot (breaking a girl's leg) she also has an even more aggressive alter ego.
LOTTIE: the "pocahontas"
This isn't really a trope I just needed a name for this. Lottie's actresses are both Maori. Lottie's main characterization is that she talks to the wilderness...(let's use common sense here)
MARI: the sassy latina
This one is pretty straightforward. All them writers really did was have Mari say some comebacks and be latina. There was almost little to no substance when we first meet her.
SIMONE: the disposable black girlfriend
Taissa's wife, Ooh girl. We meet Simone in the adult timeline is her and Tai is being cute and domestic even after we learn that Tai has cheated. Simone is willing to forgive. Simone is essentially disposed of when the show drops the bomb that Van is alive. Simone is replaced by Van in the romance department.
