Needless to say, I am HORRIFIED.

i like judith for many reasons (see that one post from a while ago) but her particular brand of dykeish longing really does strike a chord in me that resonates with the loneliness i think a lot of lesbians feel. not just in the internalized necrocavphobia (incredible word, that) but also in the way she braces herself against anything that does not align with the way she thinks the world needs to be because if the world is a Certain way and the rules are set than it’s easier not to think about that loneliness and the reality of what life you’re living in some regard or another. clings to what she knows until it doesn’t serve her and even then when it doesn’t because it hurts less to think of the alternative. does that make any sense

this is so fucking funny to me. who wants to join the ancient athenian evil dining club with me
