the worst part of summer is that people get sooo comfortable expressing their disgust at having to see other people’s bodies. they’re always complaining about wrinkly old men at the nude hot springs or fat women in bikinis at the beach. I hate that shit. if you’re not capable of being normal about bodies you personally don’t find attractive, just turn your head to look at something else! and if you’re not smart enough to do that, then at least do the rest of us the courtesy of suffering in silence, because we don’t wanna hear your weird comments. thanks.

i do find the rules around clothes fascinating because of how made up it all is. we invented the idea of covering our bodies from the elements because we lack fur like other mammals and then made up all these rules around it and now people will unironically tell you "men cant wear skirts its unnatural" girl none of this is natural. we are born naked and made up the rest as we went along. hope this helps.

trying so hard to be normal about having gained weight

[sh5]

like, fatphobia often feels like self-deprecation when it is actually punching down. bc I am “skinnyfat”/skinny enough that I don’t face huge social penalties for having a gut. people don’t consider me “fat.” so when I express my weight struggles online, I feel like I’m being self-deprecating, but I know it is truly meaner to my fatter friends who are watching me get upset over body features they also have, if not in larger amounts.

and like, the solution obviously isn’t to be like “I’m soooo fat” all the time like a teenage girl, but I also don’t know if the solution is for…my urge to be socially unacceptable therefore I stuff it down. the midrange is probably my damn therapist butttt…we have so many more important things to talk about…

the horror of being "god's favourite princess". literally one of my favourite horror themes. the god loves you and it's so scary.

it will always choose you. you cannot die. you'll always come back because it loves you so much. you are its right and left hand, its eternal weapon. it will drown you in its light. light as horror. darkness as horror. what if it thinks you are its best friend.

you are god's favourite princess and it's terrifying.

not to be a joyless hag but I've started seeing genderbent "yuri" shipping Markiplier and Ryan Gosling and I can't help but think of someone I recently I unfollowed for posting that they have an easier time caring about genderbent versions of boy characters than regular fictional women

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

and I'm also building some connections to that post I made about reading books by Black women (you know the one) and the people who would respond by saying something akin to "joke's on you, I only read fanfic 😜" as if that were some kind of clever loophole and not a demonstration of the exact thing I was talking about

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

like yes fandom is about fun or whatever but idk man at what point has your desire for no thoughts head empty uncritical consumption left you splashing around in something that's been blended down to an indistinguishable goo for the sake of avoiding anything remotely challenging. with the thing that's "challenging" here being. you know. giving a shit about women and Black people and like frankly anyone but your shippable white men (and honorary Markiplier).

Water/ocean dividers would be nice! To be specific; not with shells or anything. Just plain old H2O

I've heard from other test subjects that AI-generated artwork produces an uncanny valley response in human viewers because they can't perceive it as fully real. They've told me that it looks absolutely hideous to them, that they can't imagine anything more disgusting than AI art. But, well I've been practicing and wanted your honest opinion.

the thing is every worthwhile live broadcaster has a delay that they can use to cut out offensive material as it happens so the question you should be asking is why didnt they

[unusual-pybro]

What are you referencing?

[mlembug]

BBC recorded some guy with tourette's and then "conveniently" forgot to censor the slurs he said, despite them reassuring him that they will be cut away in the broadcast, while simultaneously censoring out "free palestine", triggering a stupid "who's more important, disabled white guy or black people" discourse when the actual issue is something else

[boybeetles]

I think it’s also important to note he sat 40 rows back to make sure that none of his tics would disrupt the show. He later noticed that they set up a microphone near him after seeing people on the stage react to his tics.

The more information comes out about this it either feels like a series of very convenient accidents or something deliberately done to stir up discourse to keep the BAFTAs in the public eye.

“StudioCanal were working closely with BAFTA, and BAFTA had made us all aware that any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast. I have made four documentaries with the BBC in the past, and feel that they should have been aware of what to expect from Tourette’s and worked harder to prevent anything that I said — which, after all, was some 40 rows back from the stage — from being included in the broadcast.

As I reflect on the auditorium, I remember there was a microphone just in front of me, and with hindsight I have to question whether this was wise, so close to where I was seated, knowing I would tic.”

It's also been revealed that not only had they assured Davidson that they would cut any tics he uttered during the show, that they did cut a homophobic slur that was aimed at the event host.

They're running out of excuses.
