MOJO PIN — art decided he didn’t need you anymore after your breakup but boy was he wrong..text after text, drug after drug after drug. If he just had you, he wouldn’t need no drugs or..his mojo pin to keep him satisfied but he didn’t wanna weep for you and he didn’t wanna know what you were up too until you showed up at his trashy apartments front steps after receiving a bit too many harsh messages from him after a harsh night.

You keep saying you came here because Art needed matches… I think you came for something else. You think I came here for you? You think I came here to throw it all away for you? Maybe you just wanted to see me. I have seen you, you look like shit.

LAST GOODBYE —
after the chaotic challenges of panic, the only good outcome was meeting your boyfriend. Dodge, of course he had barriers but you manage to break them, working so hard for your relationship, you just couldn’t believe it when he told you he was traveling and had offered you to come, not offered— begged though you both had different plans. He hated to see the love between you die, meeting your separate ways. Now there you were, running til you saw your handsome cowboy, you had to say your last goodbye.

i wrote about design for living & challengers in relation to each other last year for an unpublished essay on threesome movies. in celebration of the upcoming watchparty, here's a paragraph:
Challengers is surprisingly close to Design for Living in narrative. A threesome past haunts the principals, two talented men are inspired by the patron Mother who does not do the same work, the trio fail at monogamous relationships before finding three-way unity. Both Gilda and Tashi end up in convenient marriages that represent their dissatisfaction not only romantically, but in their identities and careers as well. This similarity in particular illuminates why both these films work where some others with similar premises don’t. Polyamory isn’t the point, it’s the setting. The domination of monogamy impacts all facets of life. A woman’s conventional role extends past fidelity. She is expected to sacrifice everything for her husband: her individuality, her labor, her spirit. Gilda and Tashi both succumb to then fight against this loss — the polyamory is almost incidental. It’s only evidence that they are no longer victims of patriarchal exchange.
