A Revalation Today

a revalation today

i watched forrest gump for the first time ever today (post-ww2 is not my thing so i haven't seen many movies set in that era) and as a lover of southern culture and southern gothic settings, its a great movie, but as an autistic person i can't help but feel a little /icky/ about how they decide to go about autism-coding forrest, without outright saying that he is in fact autistic (see tags for a cool autism fact)

an open discussion

i picked up Brave New World by Aldous Huxley today for my literature class, and i was curious to hear some of yalls thoughts about the strange and honestly sort of twisted way the Lost Generation authors and artists handled the horrors of WW1, followed by the prosperity of the 20s, only to then be plunged back into turmoil and darkness for much of the 30s and 40s, and over and over this cycle repeats (especially in american history, unfortunately i cant speak much on other countries). if youve read Brave New World feel free to add any extra insight, but if not then you're still welcome to add to the discussion <:

disclaimer: this book was published in 1931, so no, it probably doesn't have a tumblr seal of approval. proceed with this understanding and we'll have ourselves a gay old time. we (as a human collective) can read old literature and criticize it and know we know better now, but we dont have to burn it or throw it away, it's still important to learn and read.
