RIP Jim Carrey. I don't remember what movie it was, but you had me laughing hard.

[commanderchr1st]

wow. i cant believe this happened. Jim Carrey has died. let's have a moment of silence. Ready?

[catmask]

by the way. it never is too late to decide you want to be happy. the woman who helped me get hormones didnt start hers until she was 70, and i met her at 73, beautiful and smiling - and told me that the last three years of her life had been her favorite. your favorites might be ahead of you too. why not hang around and find out?

[genericpuff]

i can't even come up with an adequate enough comparison to describe the second-hand embarrassment i'm feeling at this moment, all that's coming to mind is that time i threw up in the school hallway in 5th grade and that was still easier to cope with than this

[genericpuff]

here's the thing, i deadass do not care if it's actually a good film, objectively or subjectively or otherwise.

a lot of people are praising it and probably for good reason! i'm not gonna pretend like Nolan isn't an amazing director / screenwriter when Inception is one of my favorite movies of all time.

but whether or not it's a well-made film is beside the point.

the point is that it was funded by Greece taxpayer dollars and yet couldn't even be bothered to hire Greek actors/actresses. or give a damn about researching and portraying Ancient Greek dialects and clothing and weaponry with any respect or effort.

it's not my responsibility to get angry on behalf of Greek peoples because I am not Greek and so you could argue this is not my circus, not my monkeys. and the last thing I wanna do is speak over Greek voices, of which there are MANY who are sharing their justified disdain for this film.

but I'd like to think I know a little thing or two about cultural appropriation and the harm that Hollywood has done in tokenizing and fetishizing and profiting off other culture's media without ever giving back to the culture that is still alive. Greece is not Atlantis, it's not like it's some long-forgotten city of myth that we can only make assumptions or best guesses about, its land and its people are still here and we're ignoring them in favor of taking the easy way out and hiring Tom Holland and Zendaya and putting them in Spirit Halloween clothing so they can recite a 2026 script that cuts out major elements of the original story and uses modern language, not because it's actually set in modern day, but because clearly the scriptwriters were too lazy or weren't confident that 2026 audiences would be able to appreciate antiquity-stylized language.

and when this movie makes hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office, there's zero guarantee any of it will go back into the Greek economy. at best maybe they'll get a tourism boom from American consumers who only perceive Greece as a movie set akin to Disney World and not an actual country.

I don't give a fuck about the movie's objective quality. I don't care if people love the movie or hate it. I give a fuck about what it represents as yet another bastardized Hollywood spectacle of cultural tourism and appropriation.

trying to explain to tumblr that the Middle Class in not their enemy

[sentimentalslut]

saw someone say that someone complaining about only having 7k in savings makes them contemplate “doing something bad”

you know that 7k covers like. one hospital visit WITH insurance, right?

[sentimentalslut]

“people who make six figures shouldn’t be allowed to complain —“ most people who make six figures are, these days, solidly middle class. where i live, a combined household income of $110k is *lower middle class*.

“people who can afford homes —“ are typically 400-600k in debt for them. also if “can own your own home” is your threshold for the rich you are contemplating eating, i think you are genuinely stupid

“boohoo your investments dropped, stop complaining rich boy” idk how to tell you this but. most of us have a retirement account. you should probably open one

"Oh yeah, we have an outdoor Corgi, he just gets so bored cooped up inside all day. He knows to stay off the road. Don't worry, he's way too smart for coyotes and the neighbor's know to look out when they drive past."

"Us? Oh, of *course* our Dachshund sleeps inside- we just let him out in the morning and make sure he comes back for dinner. He just does his own thing, no worries."

"Um, you know it's not humane to keep a chihuahua confined to an apartment? They're dogs, they're natural predators. They need to experience hunting behaviors or they get depressed. No we don't leash ours, he absolutely hates it, we just let him come and go whenever."

Yall get how fucking stupid that sounds, right? So stop letting your goddamn cats get eaten and attacked and infected and hit by cars

A toddler would probably love full unattended access to the neighborhood too, but we don't do that either, do we

It's 2026, "keep your damn pet in a house or in your view" should not be controversial

The Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe made this card for their citizens to present to ICE.

If you are in a different federally recognized tribe in Washington State:

“I am a member of the (insert tribe here) Tribal Nation, which is Tribal Nation federally recognized by the United States.

This means I am also a United States citizen according to the U.S. Citizenship Act of 1924, 8 USC Section 1401.

I don't read as much fic as I used to but one "tell" for non Canadians writing us, besides the etransfer, is the units you use to describe us measuring something. I hate to tell you this but The Chart is real and it's completely subconscious. Please abide

[demotu-writes]

ETA the chart (or at least a version of it):

ETA2: we do use inches/miles in poetic ways ("he was lost in thought/miles away" or "his lips were a bare inch away").

Also, the length of a dick is in inches for SURE.

Western passport holders will never understand. To go anywhere with a third worlder passport like a Filipino one, you need your tax returns, certificate of employment, bank statements, marriage certificates, sometimes a recommendation from a citizen of the country you want to travel to, everything possible to prove that you have a job and a family at home and you're not planning to be an illegal immigrant, JUST to get hit with a rejection because the embassy didn't believe you had enough proof.

Did you have travel plans? Already booked the plane tickets and hotels? Fuck you, better hope they issue refunds (they don't).

[bloodmech]

Americans and Western Europeans will never understand how insanely hard and bothersome it's to travel anywhere with a weak passport, let alone immigrate.

You want to study abroad? Show us proof that there is a quadrillion dollars in your bank account. Oh, an average monthly salary in your country is $400 and you plan to work when you arrive? You can't do that, silly, a student visa only allows you to work 2 hours every third Wednesday, and if we find out that you're working a second more we will deport you.

You want to work abroad? Better be a programmer, then of course you are welcome. Doctor, scientist, white-collar or, god forbid, blue-collar worker? You can fuck right off, your visa application goes straght into trash.

But if you marry one of our first-world citizens, then fine, you can come. Because we can't upset them, after all, they are a real person, unlike you.

EU Advice to people who have friends in places with weak passports- go to your department of foreigners and ask for something that called Formal Letter of Invitation or something similar. It usually is called something similar and costs a few euro/whatever currency you have. It will not be more than a fancy coffee at Starbucks or such place.

You will have to prove that you can afford a guest, have some income and also usually take responsibility for possible deportation cost.

But if you really are inviting a friend over, they will give you a formal document you can send to your friend. Then the friend applies for a visa while attaching the Very Official document with it. They will get the Schengen visa and most probably will get it expedited too.

It's some effort, but if it's for a friend it's worth it. And it's way less costly than the ridiculous loops the friend is being forced to go through and pay for multiple 3rd party services just to get a freaking visa for a month.
