Severance 1.09 | The We We Are
I think Irving is my favourite character in severance like I love the idea of someone who is academically minded but, devoid of anything else intellectually stimulating, he becomes fascinated with the history of lumin and all the handbooks and everything. He doesn’t come off as a “religious” fanatic, he comes off as didactic, as wanting to teach his colleagues about the history of the world. And this is very obviously horrifying to watch, this person who expresses his desire to engage with art and culture by memorising corporate behavioural handbooks, but there is something beautiful about these characters who are searching so desperately for meaning that they will go to any lengths to interact with the world with wonder
Hey I’m not over that tiny 10 second subplot in severance that had a woman undergo severance just so she wouldn’t have to feel the pain of childbirth. The thought of a woman existing with no idea of who she is or where she is just to give birth and then never see the child again and essentially die until this woman has another kid is like. The most terrible horror story I can comprehend

i saw some thread on xitter with some dude asking why drag queens "want to be around children so much" re: story hours and all the replies were either predictably disgusting or very defensive but not a single goddamn one of them answered the question so i will help in case anyone ever asks you this incredibly stupid question: they are clowns!! drag queens are just clowns!! they put on extremely silly makeup and huge wigs and bright clothes and do over-the-top performances that make people laugh and smile and sometimes cry. that is the definition of a clown. they like to perform for children because they are a type of clown and children are great audiences and it is not any deeper than that. god damn.
Why shouldn’t adults want to be around children and do fun things like read them stories?
People should be asking themselves that first.
This weird hysterical paranoia we’ve all more or less bought into where it’s WEIRD to get excited when a small human is delightedly happy about something is… it just sucks.
Kids are great. Hanging out with them is great. If you think the only reason a grown human would do so is sexual… what thing in your life went so wrong that you think that?
just an fyi for people who've let their social skills atrophy by spending too much time on tumblr:
this is generally not a good thing to say to a stranger on a nonsexual post
