HANNIBAL IS THE MOST FUN I’VE HAD WITH A FANDOM IN AGES AND ITS A SHOW ABOUT A FUCKING CANNIBAL
hannibal meme → three meals/cooking moments [1/3]
↳”you must all be warned: nothing here…is vegetarian”
hannibal is a sitcom about a cook who befriends an interior designer and they solve murders together why do you all keep talking about murders and stuff
somehow I don’t think my priorities with this show are the same as other people’s priorities
Wow they literally pulled this out of the depths of their ass
see u say that but never at any point did it actually come into contact with my sphincter, or any other section of my lower digestive tract
have you ever noticed how tumblr caps the shit out of dudes making eye contact, accessorized with comic sans, and fandom receives it like the fucking illuminated manuscript guide to shipping, replete with hosannahs of “canon!” and “GAYYYY!”, instilled with the self-evident superiority of all m/m ships because male desire is threaded with such heavy visibility in the concomitant spheres of modern textual production and reception networks, because male agency is saturated with such cultural weight it bleeds into remix culture, into fucking fandom, which is a predominantly female and non-male space, because it’s not enough that we shift without protest into “queer” spaces—male and cis and always, always whiter than milk—in between dominant narratives that bolster the hero and use women for his betterment, for his growth, for his ultimate stepping stone to glory and redemption and we cheer, we don’t even notice we’re stepping on ourselves because STOP THE WORLD MEN ARE LOOKING AT EACH OTHER THIS IS IT THIS IS THE QUEER WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR
and women shake hands, share a glance, an infinitesimal mark in the overarching narrative, subsumed beneath male agency and male drive and male desire and all that we invest therein, male sexuality—something fierce, something sharp and hard and forbidden and women, women are soft (I know, I’ve read femslash) and safe, supportive until they’re not, until they find the wanting in themselves,the desire, the agency,and then they’re usually dead and so
and so
a woman looks at another woman, I didn’t pick up on that, isn’t that funny, such a crack pairing
