me, in therapy, trying to explain why i am obsessed with fast & furious now: it's just so convenient, you know, if you want to sit there and think about how american empire connects to the structure of the family, if you want to think about western heterosexual masculinity & oil, if you want to think about imperial violence & its connections to the american carceral system, you don't have to work at all because vin diesel slams the 1970 dodge charger that his dad died in into a guy who works for "a cartel" who has, for some reason, a four-inch neck tattoo of a hammer & sickle, and then he says "pussy" in the most dismissive vin diesel voice possible, and then he goes over and tends carefully to the wounds of his sister's sexy boyfriend who used to be a cop. i mean. i mean. you literally don't have to try. why write a book when you can just watch fast & furious (2009) my therapist: so maybe i should watch it? me: no. under no circumstances
