I'm so fascinated by people who seem to believe that analyzing media is somehow taking the joy out of it. Like. Do you not enjoy thinking? Does taking stuff apart and figuring out how it works not give you a hit of dopamine? And you get mad when you see people having fun in this way? What a sad, miserable way to engage with the world.
And while we’re at it, what’s up with the people who don’t cut their fruit before they eat it we literally invented knives so we didn’t have to eat it so big and bad
one of my favorite plot beats in Riverdale is in s6 when Cheryl gets possessed by Abigail, her ancestor from the 1800s. And nobody notices bc Cheryl already acts like the main character in an old gothic novel. Abigail says shit like “oh my beloved Toni, what for ails your weeping heart” and Toni just answers without a beat because that’s exactly how Cheryl would ask that. She tries to poison Betty Jughead and Archie and they’re just like “Huh! Guess she’s in a mood again. Whatever. We should maybe look into that later.” It’s like she’s been preparing herself her whole life to be the perfect stealth vessel for her tragic murderess lesbian witch ancestor. Character of all time.
as someone who remembers the patriot act and all the conversation surrounding it, it's a bit... of an experience being able to remember how many people pointed out that Terrorist was a politically convenient term which could be used to dehumanise and legally strip the rights from someone and that eventually all this would be used internally. and the response was 'nuh uh only browns with funny headgear are terrorists'. and then two decades of 'fighting age males' being blown to pieces at weddings because they might have, maybe, looked at a terrorist once. A week ago a head of state is black bagged in the middle of the night by the US for being a 'narcoterrorist'. And now an unarmed, random woman - white, citizen - is gunned down by jackboot thugs and before her body is cold she is, of course, a domestic terrorist.
If you are reading this, you need to know that the moment the US state needs to kidnap you, the moment a drone pilot decides you're in the wrong place, the moment you are bleeding to death on the sidewalk, you will be a Terrorist. Because anything can be done to a Terrorist.
Our youth and family nonprofit theatre is doing the musical Annie with a cast and crew of about 100, mostly children. Yesterday we had a two-show day with limited time for kids to rest and eat in between.
A parent offered to set up catering to be delivered for anyone who didn’t want to or couldn’t leave the site, and asked that anybody who was interested contribute a small amount to the cost. A few parents started asking if they could pay for other families who might not be able to contribute, and put in extra.
The whole cast was fed. There was food left over. Very few families left to get food or brought food from home because there was an abundance. Kids got seconds. Kids got seconds of dessert.
It’s been said a million times, but people balk at the idea of socialism and taxation and “paying for freeloaders” because we’re devoid of community and isolated. Nobody feared “paying for freeloaders” because those freeloaders aren’t faceless, they’re kids who go on playdates with your own children, or families who offered your child a ride when your car broke down. If we could think about other people as members of our community instead of faceless, we would be more generous and sharing almost instantly.
Scooby-Doo is a dog who can talk, which is amazing, and he largely uses his powers of speech to communicate how scared he is of ghosts and monsters, and basically the only thing his owners do is drive him around the country putting him inside various haunted houses and such. I wish I could take Scooby-Doo aside, I want to say to him, these people are not your friends.
extremely funny to me that harley quinns real name is apparently harleen quinzel, a name that sounds less real that harley quinn. they should do that with more comic characters. batman real name batthew manning. daredevil real name darius devilson. doctor strange real name. well okay that one doesnt count.
I have some very good news for you about Black Bolt's real name
NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKIN ABOUT
sometimes i get home from an event with my family and i just have to sit in my car for a second & read that one sarah schulman quote on familial homophobia
taps the sign.
there are a lot of similar experiences between being nonbinary and being an atheist, mostly being forced into conversations where you have to be 100% polite and respectful of the other person’s worldview even though to you it sounds like absolute cuckoo bananas, and then they look you in the eyes and go ‘you’re fucking cuckoo bananas’
i do actually respect and like both people with genders and religious people. sometimes i don’t understand things but we are all so wildly different and i have seen gender and religion bring light and joy into people’s lives, and i love that they mean those things for other people. i will probably never actually ‘get’ it but i don’t have to…. i know how to mind my business
HOWEVER this same energy is very RARELY returned to ME!!!!!!
oh definitely that as well! 🤝
Feminism actually does also consider the ways that men suffer under patriarchy because feminism correctly points out that men must first dehumanize themselves in order to oppress women, but it would be wrong to say that this self-dehumanization is somehow worse than oppression, because it's ultimately done in exchange for power. For a man to no longer suffer under patriarchy, he must find true solidarity with women, and replace his patriarchal worldview with a humanist one.
Not to be dramática but going from consuming socio-political takes on TikTok to Tumblr might have been the best decision I have ever made because I doubt I’ll ever see someone verbalize something like this so well.
Books are how I'm able to make my takes so succinct. You cannot become educated on sociology or politics through posts, you have to read books.
I like loosening important looking screws and bolts from various vehicles and buildings whenever I go outside.
Does this have any negative consequences?
Believe it or not, yes.
there are many things tumblr as a whole has to learn but one of them is “someone can reblog a post without them endorsing every action the op has ever taken, we are not beholden to do background checks on the producers of every shitpost on the internet”
a mutual made this point and a prominent youtuber tried to dox her
