I’m trying not to think about reality and want to hear about the far edges of people’s moral horizons.

John Waters. His films are transgressive, tasteless, and trashy for the purpose of being transgressive, tasteless, and trashy. You have a movie in 1970 (Multiple Maniacs) where a drag queen, Lady Divine, gets a lesbian “rosary-job” intercut with scenes of the stations of the cross. Among many other things, Divine is raped by a giant fake lobster and eventually killed by the national guard to “America the Beautiful.” It’s a massive middle finger to everything sacred; the necessary profane.
aaayyyy I know of Divine. interesting cultural footprint, In Praise of Shadows did a cool media retrospective about Waters
Alvin, of Chipmunks fame, also appreciates John Waters.
