[taliabobalia]

when i was really little, my babysitter only spoke spanish with me so i became bilingual but i never knew when i was speaking spanish or english. one time i told my mom i wanted an avocado & she understood but then when i said the same thing to my babysitter later that day, she burst into tears with laughter because i was saying “quiero abogado” which means “i want a lawyer.”

imagine a two year old repeatedly saying “i want a lawyer!” as an adult laughs at her.

Can anybody explain what’s the deal with Hozier to me?

Like, why does everybody like him? What’s so special about him? What did he do to be so beloved?

[beggars-opera]

1. His music is varied enough in its influences of rock, folk, blues, gospel, soul, r&b, etc. that everyone can find something in the discography that they like, so people appreciate that it’s different from the norm but still accessible. He also tends to favor elaborate metaphors about love and storytelling over straightforward “ooh girl I love your body” types of songs.

2. He is a very outspoken social activist who integrates lessons about prejudice, domestic violence, and political change into his music and is often on the frontlines at fundraisers and rallies. This includes speaking out publicly about homophobia, racism, and sexism despite ostensibly being a straight white dude. As mentioned above, his female fans appreciate a general lack of objectification in his music, and he is also known for acknowledging that his success is due to the influence of women of color.

3. As much as one can say this of a celebrity that one does not know, he comes across as kind and conscientious person. Part of the LGBTQ+ following comes from a recognition of their appreciation (people throw various pride flags at him to hold up during concerts as a kind of tradition at this point) and subsequent removal of pronouns from much of his music over the years (whether this was purposeful or not is unclear but still often noted). He has also consistently eschewed expensive VIP packages in favor of free meet-and-greets after shows.

4. His debut album was heavy on the morbidity and influenced by his obsession with Seamus Heaney poetry about bog bodies, so a sort of internet cult of personality sprang up referring to him as the “Bog Man” who may actually be several thousand years old. This is contrasted with his actual personality as a Certified Millennial who used a flip phone until a couple of years ago and makes frequent quality shitposts on Twitter. The juxtaposition of this makes the Interwebz go bananas.

5. His hair is long and fluffy and more or less has its own fandom at this point.

[prismatic-bell]

Just updating to say he has confirmed the removal of pronouns is deliberate.

He’s also made some attempts at including nonbinary/gender-neutral pronouns in his songs and activism! You can tell he’s not totally comfortable with it in the “please send help I do not think I’m doing this correctly” sense, but he’s committed himself to the learning process.

Also, this wasn’t noted above: this man has ZERO media filter. What you see is what you get. I took him some Irish sweets at a stagedoor meeting since he’d talked about the difficulty in finding them in the US, and his handler literally had to take the package away from him and go “not now, Andrew” because I distracted him and he started dismantling it right then and there to get to the cookies. You’re not gonna see Lady Gaga do that because she’s got a work persona. He doesn’t.

Also the #1 charity type he supports is anti-domestic violence and women’s support. He doesn’t just say “I’m a feminist,” he puts his money where his mouth is. (Literally.)

[turninghoziest]

And to elaborate on his meet and greets: he always tries to spend as much time as possible with his fans. There have been instances where he met fans after a show even though there wasn’t supposed to be a m&g because the fans had been waiting for 2h in the cold. It’s not just a „here‘s your signature bye“ m&g. He genuinely enjoys whatever you give him and says thank you about 7 times per person. (I‘m not exaggerating)

[beliketherose]

Also he’s a bloody GOOD musician. He tends to downplay his own guitar skills, but he has vocal training from a world-famous choir and has a gorgeous voice, along with the wonderful melodies, complex lyrics, and incredible stage charisma. And I second what everyone else has said above ^

- Blendo was put together before Mythbusters was a thing - Blendo was so strong and dangerous (for throwing debris into the audience) that The Boys were asked to withdraw it in exchange for a co champion title - they re-entered Blendo years later when the protective wall was much higher. It was once again asked to be withdrawn for a co champion title for the same reason. - copy cat Blendos started appearing and would tear each other apart - Blendo is in the robot hall of fame - Blendo is too strong and powerful

Blendo cannot be stopped.

bonus fact: grant imahara also had a competitive robot named deadblow that would just fucking. hammer the shit out of other robots

I learned in a Latin Studies class (with a chill white dude professor) that when the Europeans first saw Aztec cities they were stunned by the grid. The Aztecs had city planning and that there was no rational lay out to European cities at the time. No organization.

[punkrockradio]

When the Spanish first arrived in Tenochtitlan (now downtown mexico city) they thought they were dreaming. They had arrived from incredibly unsanitary medieval Europe to a city five times the size of that century’s london with a working sewage system, artificial “floating gardens” (chinampas), a grid system, and aqueducts providing fresh water. Which wasn’t even for drinking! Water from the aqueducts was used for washing and bathing- they preferred using nearby mountain springs for drinking. Hygiene was a huge part if their culture, most people bathed twice a day while the king bathed at least four times a day. Located on an island in the middle of a lake, they used advanced causeways to allow access to the mainland that could be cut off to let canoes through or to defend the city. The Spanish saw their buildings and towers and thought they were rising out of the water. The city was one of the most advanced societies at the time.

Anyone who thinks that Native Americans were the savages instead of the filthy, disease ridden colonizers who appeared on their land is a damn fool.

[robotsandfrippary]

They’ve also recently discovered a lost Native American city in Kansas called Etzanoa It rivals the size of Cahokia, which was very large as well.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

here are some reconstructions of Tenochtitlan 

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

just a note, we don’t think of old european cities as ruins, because those civilizations continued and kept building over the old–there are no abandoned ruins for us to visit & photograph. when we picture those old cities, we have only mental images drawn from our own assumptions & prejudices–images that tend to glorify ‘civilized’ europe.

since victors write history, our image of native american cities was created by colonizers motivated to uphold the ‘native savage’ myth. when we think of these civilizations now, we think of ‘uncivilized’ (rough, broken, abandoned) ruins, because that’s what remains. ruins are the only thing left. because of the destruction wrought by western invaders, these civilizations never had a chance to continue building. they were destroyed, and all we have left is an unimaginative shadow of their former glory. 

[baby-yodas-mom]

went to peru and visited some of their museums and learned inca history that american schools don’t teach you. basically you know why they were beaten out by the spanish invaders? because incas were mostly scientists and not warriors. they had advanced medicine, farming and science technology. THATS what they were good at - tech - not building weapons to most efficiently kill people. the spanish were good at that. so they won. basically the real savages and thugs won and murdered a bunch of scientists, and their technology and advancements are lost forever. it took into the 20th century for colonizer technology to advance in the field of medicine and agriculture to the level of the incas. colonizers literally set human knowledge back like 500 years. 

[molothoo]

It’s crazy to me that, literally everyone in the world was doing just fine until Europeans showed up flipped the script

[homoquartz]

i mean all of this yes but if you are nonnative please make sure you are not internalizing this idea that somehow our cultures are more “worthy” of preservation or w/e bc we were “advanced” by european standards

let’s please bust the myth that western europe was somehow this bastion of technology and knowledge (bc it is absolutely untrue) WITHOUT devaluing indigenous cultures that didn’t create long-standing monuments or what have you

it was also supposed to be temporary

As I near 200,000 followers here at fishingboatproceeds, I just wanted to say Cock is one of my favorite tastes. Not only that, but balls smell amazing. It makes me go a little crazy on it to be honest. Like, I cannot get it far enough down my throat to be satisfied. I’m only satisfied when I feel those intense, powerful, salty, hot pumps of cum down my throat. When I sit back on my heels, look up at you with cum all over my mouth and slobber running down my neck, hair all fucked up and wipe my mouth with the back of my arm and ask you if I did a good job and you cannot even speak because I’ve drained all of your energy out the tip of your dick….. That’s when I’m satisfied.
