imagined the day my beloved bicycle breaks for good and without even a second of delay started miming the act of pulling out all my insides in an extremely frantic and dramatic manner. all that to say I reckon I have a sensible level of emotional attachment to my inanimate possessions

[crabussy]

I have written actual love songs about this bike. I have tucked her into bed during a hurricane. she's had thirty four years of adventure. I've only had her for two of those years. she's only had me for two of those years. but I like to think these two years have been the most wonderful and eventful and gentle years of her life. I don't know. I like bikes

[crabussy]

not only is she old, she's been in use for like FIVE TIMES the average bike lifespan. I'm twenty. that's one fifth of the human lifespan. problematic rider-bike age gap.... starts giggling and fanning myself

hi websy

[natalieironside]

If u could bring dead ppl back 2 life with magic like in video games the hollywood stunt scene would be out of control. There'd be professional snuff actors winning awards for dying the best. Producers would be like "If u need somebody to get killed in a film call up Resurrection Eddie, nobody gets killed as good as Eddie"

i can't express how absolutely important it is that when you make an edgy, brooding, badass character who's tough as nails and good at fighting and whatever, you HAVE to give them at least one reason to become completely helpless and pathetic. you have a panic attack quota to fulfill.

There's a post I keep seeing go around that's like, "quick, list five things you like that aren't a piece of media," and every time I see it, I get the very petty urge to respond with, "teaching media literacy, studying media history, analyzing media, using media as a lens to study historical trends, and finding ways to connect people's interest in pop culture to important social issues."

I have plenty of hobbies that aren't media-related, sure. I love my garden, my pets, baking, and sewing. I just get rather tired of "media is evil, actually, and if you're really into it is is actually rotting your stupid little brain" rhetoric. If your goal is to get people to broaden their horizons and engage in multiple hobbies beyond passive media engagement, leading with shame (and social media posts that function as OCD traps) is a BAD FUCKING APPROACH. Shame is not a motivator. Shame only serves to condescend and shut people down.

This week I'm working on lesson plans to lead a six-week class on media literacy skills for a pack of homeschoolers. What the fuck kind of teacher would I be if I used an approach of "you're stupid for liking cartoons, go do something WORTHWHILE!" instead of "let's develop these skills by talking about a piece of media you already enjoy!"
