A Nightmare in Wonderland

I'm a nice dude, with some nice dreams, but we could turn this into a nightmare on elm street

As a society, we are fascinated by fictional psychopaths. Humankind has an ‘ongoing… fascination with tales of gruesome murders and evil villains.’  Popular culture abounds with depictions of the mad and the bad; and aberrant psychology has proved a fertile source of such material to the novelist and the reader alike.  Perhaps no single disorder holds as much morbid cultural appeal as psychopathy…

‘There is no question… that readers feel empathy with (and sympathy for) fictional characters and other aspects of fictional worlds’, yet it is difficult to see how one can empathise and identify with a character who is himself incapable of empathy.  If empathy and identification are both the goal and the reward of reading literature, then we are left with a striking ambivalence which needs to be explored.

this really, really gets to me.
you see the blade up there, with wings. like it’s the savior and an angel coming when we need it the most. the open wrists releases dark emotions and dark powers and dark monsters that’s inside of us, that’s being let out when the angel, the blade, cuts the wrist open and makes it all better. 
this photo is just way too powerful not to reblog. everything in this photo makes so much sense
