@colinwalker hey Colin, popped back onto m.b. to send you a comment on this.

\n\n

What you’re experiencing is absolutely on par with myself. I’ve had clinical depression for years, but since 2015 it’s been “upped” with General Anxiety Disorder as well. I wrote a little bit about My Panic Attack back in 2016. With correct medication, and lots of therapy, I’ve managed to not have one in about a year.

\n\n

That doesn’t, unfortunately, stop what my therapist and I call despair attacks, something I’ve never had to deal with before, but leave me every bit as destroyed as a panic attack.

\n\n

I hope you get all the help you need to get you through all of this, but you absolutely are not alone. Sadly, even those of us long in the tooth of mental health issues find new and “exciting” ways to make things harder.

@hjertnes well, amazingly 😎 the idea of multiple countries is dealt with, both in international law and in treaties. I couldn’t hope to explain the intricacies of the process here, but there is a HUGE corpus of law on just this issue.

\n\n

As to the “condition” Ecuador has imposed, that’s a bit of a red herring. European states can’t extradite to the death penalty, and the U.K./USA extradition treaty grants a specific right to the U.K. to refuse extradition in those cases.

@hjertnes

\n\n

I agree that he's a piece of shit, and that he's not been convicted of anything save bail jumping, for which he will do deserved time.

\n\n

I happen to know about extradition. What he's charged with in the States - a CPAA violation, happened within the US jurisdiction, and he was (per the indictment) an active participant in the conspiracy alleged. What the indictment specifies easily meets the standard of reasonable proof, particularly, if as seems likely, the US authorities have the logs of the XMPP chats with Chelsea Manning.

\n\n

You don't need to be a citizen of a country, or present in the country, to be a participant in a conspiracy in that country, that's a complete straw man argument.

@herself @devilgate

\n\n

Whoah; I could not agree with you more here.

\n\n

That \"reviewer\" and his sneering condescension make his article almost unreadable, however I read it and have many comments.

\n\n

I think it is difficult for such a pampered and privileged child to imagine the cultural landscape of the late 1980s. No matter what your own cultural tastes were, every where you looked we were served milquetoast. From bland corporatised music to bland television to utterly bland films, everything was just the same.

\n\n

John Hughes ruled the world with such \"teen\" drivel as Pretty in Pink and Sixteen Candles, movies in which submission to authority and acquiescence were the key to the character's eventual fulfilment and happy ending.

\n\n

Even the \"rebel\" films of the era - Breakfast Club, Better off Dead, Ridgemont High - the protagonists won by either becoming part of the mainstream or, for the women, becoming sexually available, then subservient, to their male counterparts.

\n\n

Then came Heathers, which just blew all of that shit right out of the water. The bullying of Marsha Dunnstock isn't held up as a \"good thing\", in the way that Hughes' early films would have done. The film explores the consequences of that bullying, both in her suicide attempt and her later use of a mobility device.

\n\n

Even the handling of the sexual assaults aren't as described by this terrible reviewer. Yes, they exist, but, brother, you should see Grease, Pretty in Pink, or Revenge of the Nerds, which has a straight-up rape played for laughs!

\n\n

Yes, Veronica is assaulted, but the assaults do not define the character. She does not acquiesce to them, she retains her agency, this is a key element which sets Heathers apart from, well, everything that came before and much of what came after. (Note: yes, she retains her agency by killing three people, but you can't have it all)

\n\n

It is that fact of her retaining her agency which make the movies denouement; Veronica, having refused to be defined by men who assaulted her, refuses again to be defined by JD and his assaults. This sets up the climactic explosion, followed by probably the best scene in the film as Veronica, bloodied, dirtied, burned, cigarette in hand, meets Heather Dukes:-

\n\n
\n

H: Veronica, you look like hell
\nV: Yeah? I just got back.

\n
\n\n

kisses her, and takes her scrunchie, the totemic symbol of the Heathers' power.

\n\n

Its hard to comprehend, if you weren't there, how radical, how subversive this moment is. Teen films always ended with the good guy (redeemed or otherwise) kissing the good girl (erased of all agency). Even more important is what comes next.

\n\n

Veronica informs Marsha Dunnstock that her date for the prom isn't available, and asks her to spend that night with her watching videos. The Prom, that supposed cultural institution, is dismissed as an irrelevancy by two women who've been through hell.

\n\n

Maybe that's why this child was incapable of appreciating Heathers. His apparently claimed feminism barely passes muster, he seems incapable of understanding the cultural history which the film turned on its head and pumped full of Ich Luge bullets. He has, somewhat incongruously, supplied a perfectly mediocre milquetoast critique.

They have no real world experience of anything outside their own hyper-privileged bubble. I had to stop listening to, well, all of the apple-adjacent podcasts, because I found them nauseating.

@adders weirdly, whomever is behind that piece appears to have paid a lot of money for it. A search for the headline shows it being used as churnalism in all kinds of places. Really rather pathetic in all kinds of ways.

@adders Ugh. Importing the absolute worst features of american consumer culture into an already perfect coffee consumption environment just smacks of entitlement and presumption.
