canaries were used in coalmines due to their incredibly hard beaks, they could break through stone as well as any pickaxe

My new pet peeve is people completely misunderstanding the term Male Gaze and making the term female gaze based entirely on that misunderstanding

the white boy of the month pushing his hair back and reading poetry for the camera is not the equivalent of the dehumanization of women in visual media by way of presenting them primarily as vessels for sexual gratification

i made a post like this before but I can't find it now. so. I'll just redo it.

What's the first "big news story" you remember from when you were a kid?

It's something I love to ask mixed-aged groups sometimes because I think it's really interesting to see the responses. I've gotten answers from the Olympics of [whatever year] to Watergate to more recent stuff from my niblings.

My first news thing I remember is the OJ Simpson trial. I vaguely remember watching the news with my grandparents before that, but that's the first story I remember, in part because my second grade teacher had us go play so she could watch the verdict 😂

I remember walking down the street and seeing a sign protesting George W. Bush’s war on Iraq, so I think that.

#the abu ghraib torture controversy coupled with the 2004 election bc i specifically remember being upset that people were voting for bush #given the torture. i do remember not being allowed to play on the playground during the dc sniper attacks and being mad about it #but had zero clue why that was happening bc they told us it was bc there was a fox on the playground so that doesnt count

this is also perhaps going to be a controversial opinion given tumblr's love of the mummy but. i had always kind of grouped the mummy/the mummy returns and the original three indiana jones movies together in my head because my brother and i were super into them around the same time and there is obviously a fair amount of content/theme overlap BUT. i rewatched both the indiana jones trilogy and the mummies in the last couple years for the first time as an adult and i was genuinely shocked by how much better the indiana jones movies are. like i thought of them both as compelling but with some cheesy elements and i actually think the indiana jones movies are genuinely very well done and both the mummy movies are mid at best.

#even temple of doom which is the weakest of the indiana joneses i feel like is stronger than the mummy #the mummy is better than the mummy returns but it's like...not that good im sorry. oded fehr is still hot tho

on the subject of movie takes. didn't make it into the top ten in part because i only got into them this year but 28 days later/28 years later/bone temple are sooooooo genuinely fantastic. like i like horror movies but a lot of horror movie fans that want their faves to get more mainstream recognition are gassing them up too much BUT these are genuinely really really fantastic films on their own merits. 28 weeks later is very mid and doesn't add anything to the franchise but the others slap.

alliluyevas

my hot take and definite minority opinion is that 28 years later is better than bone temple (though I thought bone temple was very good), I think it's too slow and contemplative for some people but I think it really worked for me as a meditation on family and how life goes on in a post-apocalyptic world which is also something the original movie did very well.

#also jodie comer is soooooo good in it.#and the boots boots boots voiceover. SO GOOD
