Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

Rules:

  1. Post examples of toxic heteronormativity only.

I recently watched the documentary Van Gogh by Vincent, which narrates his development as an artist by using his own self-portraits. Hearing the way the speakers pronounce his name is now cemented in my mind. Honestly it still feels weird, but I'll get used to it.

if you enjoy art documentaries, check out tim's vermeer, about a random rich dude who hypothesized vermeer's method of painting using mirrors, then painted a near perfect duplicate of a vermeer using the method, having never been a painter before

Ooh, it's directed by Teller and produced by Penn Jillette, too? It's gotta be good.

Thank you for the recommendation!
