i can’t stop thinking about that david jenkins interview where he says that he’s read online discourse about the show and the fans discuss the same things that they discussed in the writers’ room. that the fans get them. he seems so delighted by the fact. i’m so happy that this is a mutual amusement: because we are equally delighted by the fact that they get us.

it’s so rare to have this connection between mainstream creators and fans, this mutual feeling of ‘how great it is to be understood’.

...Stede Bonnet would not understand the impulse to hide a hickey.

He would specifically wear a vibrantly coloured scarf just below it to draw attention to it. Hoping someone will ask him about it.

Because it's Ed's. Because it's a mark of love. Proof that he, Stede Bonnet, is desired and he could never be ashamed of it. He would in fact intentionally bring it up to the people that he is supposed to be stealing from.

"Ah! You are probably wondering about this mark here. I know, you might be thinking it's a battle wound but no! No it's actually a mark of passion, bestowed on me by my beloved."

And the crew would groan and Olu would tell Stede to "Give it a rest, it's bad enough having to hear you two going at it non-stop."

Meanwhile Ed is grabbing loot and pretending not to overhear. The entire time cursing that he doesn't have the beard anymore because now he can't hide that he's grinning from ear to ear.

I love donkeys they are maybe my favorite beast of burden behind oxen. They’re so badass. Survivalist killing machines. The absolute opposite of horses in every way.

I had a dream recently that I was getting all of my ingredients ready to make a delicious vegetable soup while the broth was being warmed on the stove on low. When I came back, there were TWO small capybaras in my soup pot bathing in the broth. In the dream, I was infuriated. But it’s a very cute image and someone should draw it.

combining my knowledge of urban planning with the hours of video essays on horror i’ve consumed to come to the conclusion that the real monster is car culture

[clementine-kesh]

ok so let me explain. an oft repeated saying in urban planning circles is that cars are the dominant species on the planet. this is based on a 1960s cartoon that satirizes the north american obsession with cars, how much space we devote to them, and how we design our entire cities and lives around them. in jacob geller’s video on the architecture of alienation he talks about the fear created when a space we expect to be built and designed for us subverts those expectations and becomes hostile or incomprehensible. to many people who can’t access vehicles or proper documentation to be able to drive this is exactly what the car-centric city becomes. it is a place that should be designed for people but is not and is hostile towards those who are unable to drive, think about suburbs with no sidewalks or urban food deserts with no grocery stores within walking distance. not to mention the danger imposed by cars themselves, especially when car manufacturers are locked in an arms race to make the biggest, bulkiest vehicle in the name of supposed safety for the driver with very little regard for pedestrians and cyclists. altogether, a car centric city is a horror unto itself.

on international women’s day don’t forget the day was started by jewish socialist women & immigrants striking against unfair labour conditions and the first marches that began the international women’s day movement were organized by socialists as well. it isn’t just some uwu solidarity good feel day, it is explicitly a day to talk about labour, to show solidarity with working class women, to strike back against capitalism, and if your women’s day organizing leaves behind women of colour, immigrants & jewish women, focuses on how women should “lean in” & acquire corporate power over others, you’re fucking up bad.
