reminder to visit museums, even if you feel out of place. you feel out of place because there is an established concept of inaccessibility of "high culture" to the masses, purposefully developed to distinguish between social classes.

take up space, read the plaques, get the audioguides. you are just as entitled and right in being there. visit museums, boycott museums, be expressive about your opinions about museums.

a lot of museums are free, or discounted for youth and students. take advantage of that. check your local art museum. check your local history museum. museums are there for you, they are there to educate the public, not to distinguish between class. it isn't a private collection, it's a public exhibit.

GO TO MUSEUMS!!!!!!!

'Take up space' OK but this is so important, because that's your museum, that's your gallery, and if you want to spend half an hour staring at one painting that makes your soul feel all tingly, then you can absolutely do that, and don't let anyone make you feel weird for doing anything other than spending 10 seconds looking at something and then dismissing it with a sardonic grin

Oh my god. 1,000 times YES to this post!!

I'm a museum professional. I've worked in museums my whole life. I have a master's degree in museum studies. My job is Visitor Experience.

GO TO MUSEUMS!!

We are here for you! We want you here! Museums would not exist if it wasn't for the people visiting them. Come and enjoy what we have! Stay for 15 mins or stay all day! See one exhibit or see them all!

Things I've seen people use a museum for:

A playdate for their kids

A place to practice drawing

A place to study for school

A place to get lunch and catch up with friend

A first date

A place to understand the city their visiting

A place to learn something new

A place to see something in person they've only seen in books

A place to get out of the rain or heat for a little while

And don't be afraid to ask the floor workers questions. I promise there is no stupid question (except for maybe that one guy who asked me if those stairs over there go upstairs....that was dumb). We love questions.

Go to museums!!!

i get the vibe that people are reading less fic these days. confirm/deny?

in terms of reading fanfiction in the last six+ months...

i have been reading less fic lately for various reasons

i have been reading less fic and i'll tell you right now it's because of AI

i would like to read more but i'm in a fic reading slump

i never read all that much fic (less than one story per week)

i almost never read fic (less than once a month)

i read the same amount of fic as ever

i have been reading more fic lately

nuance/bald/i'll tell you in comments

Remaining time: 3 days 13 hours

"because of AI" i mean because of the number of fics that are written using AI.

I wish I could go to a doctor and just list every single symptom I ever experienced no matter how small and unconnected they seem and the doctor is nice and patient and knows everything and they nod and smile and explain that every symptom I ever experienced is connected to like one rare and often overlooked issue that's sooooo easy to fix with like. a pill. and then I never have to worry about anything ever again.

mccoy doesn't have a chair on the bridge cuz he's the kinda guy who stands behind the couch to watch a whole 45 minute episode of something while insisting he doesn't need to sit down bc he's just checking out one scene. does this make sense
