not to present a noble savage view of tumblr but the sheer unmarketability of this place means that i can scroll my dash in peace with the assurance that i am not being presented an ad in secret to a far greater extent than on any other social media. feels like i can breathe on this site
i have zero respect for any fandom
hotd season 3 must-dos:
1. dragonstone bottle episode. 90 minutes of shenanigans. mushroom finally makes an appearance. it's all from the POV of the guards and the no-names on the island.
2. muppet episode in the riverlands. as recompense for cutting out the muppet tullys. alys is the only human.
3. body swap episode where the gang gets into wacky hijinks after getting cursed by a woods witch. aemond and vhagar swap. alicent and aegon swap. somehow the curse hits dragonstone too
4. hotd clip-o-rama for budget purposes while alys and aemond are tracking down daemon in the riverlands. it's just a recap of the show but you see it in the flames
5. 70 minute episode of black comedy banking escapades during the lysene spring. just total tonal shift to the pov of larra and lysandro and the rogares. it's the wolf of wall street in westeros. leonardo dicaprio is there
can i be vulnerable in front of my friends or am I going to be hunted for sport like last time

if the detective isnt incredibly annoying and lowkey miserable to be around then theyre not really doing their job
i have trouble articulating what i hate so much about filtering every conversation about a morally grey character through the lens of 'are they redeemable?' except to say that it rarely feels like the most interesting question and framing for engaging with their story. all i know is i hate it
TADC EPISODE ONE <- link you want to click so bad
this may not be interesting, but do you ever feel like art is kind of useless? like. okay. i love art. i love reading and watching and looking and also writing drawing making. but i worry that it's of very little real-world consequence. what does it give the world? moments of understanding, joy, recognition. this doesn't mean it's nothing, of course not. maybe 'useless' is the wrong word here. but has the impact it has been overblown bc we so badly want to believe it can change the world? maybe it already has changed the world and i'm not seeing it. any thoughts? thank you my smart beautiful mutual xx
art is useless because beauty alone cannot change the world. a pretty poem cannot solve racism. a painting cant rid the world of war. to conceive of it is absurd. to contend against the immense suffering of the world, art is effete, because this world is ruled by material conditions, around which ideologies are formulated to reify or contend against. the ideologies form around the base realities of the world--not the other way around.
but art must change something. it has to, or what would be the point? wasnt i made better by having touched everything i love and enjoy? every book and song and sunday morning cartoon? maybe we still make mistakes--good art can't stop someone from being painfully human--but the grand hope is that the kinds of mistakes we make are scrubbed away or mitigated by the guiding force of art, which at its best guides and educates the heart in the same way a rhetorical argument or geometrical proof hones the mind. wasn't the american civil war won just as much by uncle tom's cabin and the battle hymn of the republic and the abolitionist papers and the speeches of frederick douglass, as it was by the railroad and the battleship and the rifle musket and the logistic lines?
maybe beauty cannot change the world alone. maybe the materialists are right, that historical progression can only occur with a redistribution of economic and thus political resources over the population: slavery to feudalism to mercantilism to capitalism, and art serving as witness to the horsemen of history rather than as actor and enactor of the will of the ages. but i am made better by art. and if i can be, then maybe the world can be too. as below, so above. good art is worth making, so long as history does not move in inevitabilities, but rather is created by the movement of great masses of people. asimov likened these vast historical forces to predictable physics forming out of the ideal gas laws of billions of humans operating in minute unpredictable ways. maybe art is one such force that stirs and perturbs these many particles, that proves that the world can still be moved by the actions of individual people. maybe art actually matters.
wouldnt that be a beautiful thing?

true capitalism can only emerge when the contradictions of feudalism are sharpened to the point of breaking. the destruction of the warmaking capability of the imperial core through the dancing of their dragons will offer us smallfolk the tools by which we may free ourselves. the war will liberate us bröthers

There is something really wrong with the way we talk about books on the Internet. When I have a discussion with my real life friends — which I do have! — about literature, I notice the lack of desperation in the air which seems to pervade online literary discourse. When we read fiction, we seem to have a very bad habit of projecting our neuroses onto it. The expectations placed upon the novel (both as a medium and in the sense of individual novels) these days are increasingly bewildering. In an earlier article, I articulated my opposition to the idea that the novel and the act of reading itself would save us from fascism, but this is only one of many burdens people have placed on the novel. People will put out deeply, uh, motivated interpretations of novels. People treat characters like they’re real people and real people like they’re characters. Pages and pages of arguments between two people who equally do not understand the themes of the book or show they’re talking about. Much discussion about books seems to have very little to do with the content of the books themselves and very much to do with the people having those discussions. In this article, I want to get to the bottom of why, and I believe the only way to find that ‘why’ is by interrogating the idea of fandom, and its relationship to consumerism.
