#and part of its inspo is arguably the biggest godamn influence on internet culture period

I was watching Hunger Games (mainly bc I was bored but like. The books and the first movie honestly slap) and it struck hard how Locked Tomb honestly has the potential to be the next Big YA Thing. Frankly the only reason it's not already is probably because every bit of marketing slapped on it emphasises that it's queer
Which. That's what we need. Tazmuir could fucking topple Joanne and piss on her bones! If only more people read these fucking books!
#theres a yt essayest i enjoy called James Somerton#who i particularly respeect bc hes a gay former harry potter fan who talks about how foundstional the books were to him and others#while also explicitrly calling joanne out and explaing how her behaviour has tainted a big part of his development#and he recently made the point regaring shitwarts legacy that. joanne has won at capitalism.#she can say whateve she wants now and still live off the royalties#the most powerful thing we can do to her is make her irrelevant#and the only way to do that is to mke hp this half remembered obscure trivial thing#dwarfed by its successors#hunger games came close to that but was ultimately held back by its own intrinsically ironic marketing and need for a token het love triang#tlt doesnt have that. it is foundationally incapable of having that#and part of its inspo is arguably the biggest godamn influence on internet culture period#it has the potential to surpass all its predecessors if it can breach mainstram#what im saying is. if you havent already.#please find a copy of Gideon the Ninth.#only the queers can defeat joanne and her dark forces of racism and everythingphobia#(side note but as someone who lived in a transphobic home and personally witnessed my mother being fucking indoctrinated uhhhhh#yeah this is kind of fucking a big deal to me)
