Your gateway to endless inspiration
Everyone always gets on yellowjackets for being fucking weird with the number of background characters and changing actresses and lacking depth for a lot of said background character and everything all the time but thats the point!!! That’s the point of it!!! All the surviving Yellowjackets are unreliable narrators!!! Most if not all of the surviving Yellowjackets have mental conditions and if they don’t they sure as hell have endless trauma. The flashbacks are being told by them, 25 years later, when they have spent all that time trying to hide and deny everything that happened and everything that occurred and all of it is messed up. They don’t want to remember it all, they don’t want to remember their dead teammates. Sometimes it’s impossible to tell which characters are flashing back to which segments. Sometimes characters are inexplicably absent. Sometimes some people remember more than others. Sometimes random characters appear who have been absent all this time. Like, Crystal appeared as a character out of the blue when Misty was feeling abandoned by Nat and was remembering her first best friend. Characters are recast because who can even remember what those girls looked like anymore. The consistent characters are the ones no one can forget. The first ones. Who is gonna forget Laura Lee? Jackie? Javi? No one. But who is gonna remember girl #3 that you killed and ate when you went insane in the wilderness? No one. Or maybe you don’t want to remember. Maybe by girl #3 you try and forget everything. You stifle all feelings and memories until you remember maybe she had brown hair, oh i think i remember her gathering herbs once, oh i think she had this hat she liked to wear, oh maybe she was around during this event or maybe she was already dead and gone and buried and eaten. Maybe maybe maybe. You don’t know. You never know. Because thats what trauma does it eats away at the brain until all you have left to tell your story is faulty memories and a heart full of grief. And i think it just got worse once Shauna burned her journals and left everything into pure memory. Even those were unreliable because Shauna was suffering from day one and it only got worse after Jackie. Nothing is gonna be consistent about a story told 25 years after the events by people so traumatized they can barely remember it themselves.
IM SO TIRED LIKE IM ABOUT TO PASS OUT TIRED and i have to fucking. print off a billion pages and finish writing this one thing because school tomorrow. and i havent done any of the work i was supposed to because i spent all two weeks drawing (dont regret it). AUHGH
nothings really all that real. like time is split into 12s and 60s because of sumerians and babylonians. the ideal ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide is based on what it was when our specific shape of stupid meatsack evolved and thus what were adapted to. we make noises into our electronic boxes all day and they get turned into and exist as 1s and 0s on a server somewhere until someone else asks the server to show it to them at which point they're converted back into something people can read. or maybe they can't read it so they send it to another server that changes it from one human language to another and then shows the translated version, represented by a different sequence of 1s and 0s, to them. sometimes a lightbulb burns out because too much charge ran through it. your walls might have asbestos on them because it was a really pretty green and they didnt know it was toxic yet. you can actually buy peppermint bark at any time of year, its just harder to find them in spring. people do yoga with goats. pomeranians and great danes are the same species. you can usually extract an image from a webpage by going through devtools, which i only learned how to do because i wanted to see someones discord profile in higher definition. you can go to a pharmacy and get hair dye, ibuprofen, nail polish, and a candy bar in the same trip.
seriously this existence is completely arbitrary and mostly artificial and we should all just chill the fuck out. i advocate being nice to each other because nothing really matters so why make things worse?
