10/10 Mandalorian and Grogu was awesome, no notes had a great time, will be watching it again and I hope Zeb and Rotta got that drink together.

fuck an "intended audience" how about we normalize engaging with new and unfamiliar art pieces on their own terms

[ysolt]

[little-theatre-fairy]

ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the difference between pushing a product and creating a work of art

[themainspoon]

I can't be bothered to find the thread rn. But there were a bunch of people talking about it, and I agree, so I'm sharing the idea here:

We need a death of the audience; lots of media gets worse because authors are too worried about a hypothetical audience. As someone engaging with media, you need to understand that you simply might not understand all of it, and that's ok. But also I think more authors need to realize that it's ok if not everyone in the audience will fully understand everything they're doing.

So... Rotta is working with the New Republic... Erza is back in the GFFA... How do we think a meeting between the two would go down?

Zeb: Ezra! I want you to meet my new friend.

Ezra, thinking Zeb would have let Rotta in on the bit: My son! It's so good to see you!

Rotta: ????

Everywhere I go I'm reminded how much the desire to punish homelessness and migration and other Undesirablenesses make society markedly worse for everyone

like why is the park locked after 5pm so I can't go and sit under a tree after work? to punish rough sleepers for the terrible crime of being homeless and alive

why do I have to buy a drink, beg for a code and fuck around with an awkward keypad for 5 minutes in order to take a piss? because fuck homeless people

why do I need to provide proof of address and photo ID to do everything? because we had to create a really hostile environment for migrants

why can't you sit anywhere? well because god forbid people sleep when they're pushed out of shelter. can't risk that.

every day governments, councils and businesses make your life worse as a side effect of making vulnerable people's lives WAY worse. if you're ok with that you're a fucking idiot and if you're in favour of it you're a vindictive cunt cause again literally the ONLY payoff for your life getting worse is other people's lives getting worser.

solution, come up with a solution to any of those (that doesn't seem like a reversion-to-status-quo of just take the bad thing away) but present it as a way to take away the inconvenience and hope people's desire to not-appear-like-the-bad-guy-even-while-they're-being-one prevents them from either realizing this is also gonna help that group or making a provision in the new rule that tips their hand

[starrynet]

that’s his little guy!!

extremely funny to me that Kermit the Frog is the only main overlap character between Sesame Street and The Muppets. imagine your day job is hanging out in a community of lovely people that genuinely just want to help kids learn and care about everyone so so much and then your night job is the reason that you have to stay up to date on your rabies AND tetanus vaccine

[nat-20s]

at noon the giant you're hanging out with is Big Bird! a wonderful fellow who likes reading stories and singing and telling fun facts! at midnight there's a giant named Sweetums who makes you feel like you're being hunted for sport

[nat-20s]

Ernie, trying to maybe come out to Kermit: well you know Kermit, me and Bert-

Bert: Bert and I

Ernie: Bert and I, we've been best friends forever, but we're also something else too!

Kermit, who every goddamn night has to tell Beaker and Bunsen to keep it professional, deal with Statler and Waldorf's bullshit, AND update his organizational chart on Dr. Teeth and the Electric Polycule: that's really great to hear fellas, happy for you two! :)

[stellacartography]

Grover, alarmed at having spilled some finger paint on Kermit's flipper: I am so sorry, Kermit. Please forgive me.

Kermit, who deals with a multitude of bodily fluids on his person and all over the theatre every evening, who is unintentionally trampled by large monsters as they exit the stage, and quite intentionally has his little froggy bones launched into a wall most nights by Miss Piggy: It's ok, Grover. I'm a frog. I love baths.

[comicgeekscomicgeek]

On Sesame Street: Oh, no, Telly is watching too much television!

The Muppet Show Theater, that night: Gonzo attempts to explain his latest fetish at length.

Zeb when did you start dressing like kallus. Cause that jacket combo in the 2nd act looked hella familiar.

White husband effect in full display.

[despazito]

I don't have time for tumblr discourse they're calling the very hungry caterpillar degenerate art over on twitter

[despazito]

good art is when something looks like real life, the more real it looks the more better the art. abstracted figures give my trad children nightmares, one time they were exposed to cubism and couldn't go outside for a week

[draculasstrawhat]

Huh fascinating, I wonder what the fash have against Eric Carle? I wonder what he might have said about his life, and influences, and early experiences that makes them say he’s part of an ‘insalubrious culture’?

Carle's 'Blue Horse' teaches kids to think outside the box

Franz Marc (1880-1916) was a German painter and printmaker, one of the key figures of the German Expressionist movement.

every reread kills me a little bit more

[great-gatsby]

reread and enjoy <3

[shop5]

Me all through the Mando movie: Zeb where is your husband is he safe? Is he well fed?? Is he tending the children?

[ideemthatsheyetlives]

There's this clip from a few years back where Steve Blum talks about Zeb's relationship with Kallus and I'm just wondering why nobody has ever mentioned the fact that he just straight up said that Zeb might be pregnant with Kallus's child!

[no-me-mires-con-esos-ojos]

Ezra coming back from a different galaxy:

it’s been so long what did I miss?

Zeb:

Kallus: “Surprise, we’re expecting,”

Sabine holding the galaxy’s largest pregnancy test: Oh, us too

Hera who is on the emotional roller coaster from hell and is also low-key disgusted by the realization that sabezra fucked:

[edgebug]

"wholesome" and "pure" are not antonyms of "sexual" btw

truly genuinely honestly for real i DON'T get why so many grown adult people stopped using google search for simple questions and just go straight to chatgpt now. it's not like google ever stopped working??? we've been googling things for decades without any issues why would you stop??????? to ask a program that lies half the time??????????????

[ericadawn16]

The search sites also run on AI and are virtually useless
