( No Title )
Tbh there is an overabundance of media about a nonhuman creature’s deep desire and journey to become human, and so very few of the opposite
Many of those movies/shows are very good and I like them but the whole time I’m feeling like it’s tragic in a way. The thought of a creature giving up its otherness to assimilate into humanity is really fuckin sad to me. Or a human getting the chance to be something else freaking out and rejecting it.
Just makes me feel all the more alienated, y’know. Like “damn why don’t I relate to this allegedly universal enthusiasm for being human” and “why is the desire to be anything else always wrong”
