For a city to be walkable. It must also be sittable.

i swear sometimes it feels like vast swathes of people on here think there's some moral value to "annoying"ness like it's morally incorrect to be annoying so if you're not doing anything wrong it can't be annoying and if you're annoyed with someone they must have morally failed or something. Like my god. Have you never just been irked by something harmless before?

dont trace reference images. dont even LOOK at reference images. in fact, don't ever look at anything that exists in the world, in person or in photos or in videos, even when you're not drawing, because you will still be able to use the memories of what something looks like as a reference when you're drawing it later. yes that includes yourself. destroy all the mirrors in your house. don't look down at your hands or feet. don't look. close your eyes. close them tight. forget everything. it's okay, embrace the darkness. just forget.

quite honestly i don't see how you're supposed to work a full-time job that's actively destroying your body when you're already disabled in order to pay for your medications without turning to substance abuse, and it's like nobody wants to address that at all, it's all like my fault that i'm an alcoholic or whatever because it would be bad for a therapist to actually acknowledge that the position i'm in is cruel and intended to be this way to kill us

This phrase has already entered my vocabulary re: media criticism where like. The viewer has a concrete view of what they expect a story to be based on the tropes and cliches they're used to seeing together, and when that doesn't happen, they judge it as a failed depiction of what they assumed it was going to be instead of judging it as what it actually is.

"This show is problematic because the hero didn't kill the villain at the end": When does he steal the bread?

"These two characters who were close friends throughout the series don't kiss at the end! What the fuck?": When does he steal the bread?

"This feels like it's missing a conclusion! Like, the protagonist does bad stuff and because of a critical decision he makes as a result of his major character flaws, meets tragedy in the end! Where's the part where he learns better and brings is love back from the dead and becomes a good guy and gets a happy ending?": When does he steal the fucking bread??

I heard this out as "When criticizing something, you must judge it for what it is, not what it isn't"

Years ago I read this criticism from an actual professional critic of Jane Austen. He said her work was not as good as everyone said because she didn’t talk about things like the napoleonic wars and the sugar trade. You know, dude stuff. Instead of seeing Austen as a brilliant writer who brought to light the stories of women and the things that concerned them, he thought she was rubbish for not bringing up stuff all the male writers of her time were already covering. He was seeing her work for what it wasn’t, instead of what it was, which was revolutionary. I’m so “glad” to see people still fucking this up.

obliterate the concept of "spoiling" a child. excise it from your lexicon like a cancer. that is some "the opposite of sin is suffering" Puritan ass bullshit. it is not possible to ruin a person through an overabundance of kindness.
