PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE (2019) dir. Céline Sciamma

[chewbacca]

The princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who know her. But, before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday, she shall prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die.

Sleeping Beauty (1959)

insane to me how, to some people, this is not a common sense

i think eventually we're all just gonna have to come to terms with the fact that it's impossible to tell a story with any degree of subtlety or nuance without risking a portion of the audience taking the "wrong message", and that's ok. art isn't meant to be strictly a teaching tool, and if you're goal is just to convince people or critique an idea, just write an essay or a polemic

[telltaletypist]

people taking the "wrong message" from a story isn't a failure of that story, it's a function of art itself

I don't think Tolkien is a good fantasy writer because he scored the highest at some objective Best Fantasy Book Test that every fantasy writer has to take, I think he's a good fantasy writer because he created a world based on things that he was interested in. I feel like a lot of fantasy writers think that they need to create a whole language for their world because Tolkien did and obviously his books are the best so they have to emulate him, but Tolkien did that because he was a linguistics nerd. I think the lesson to be learned from him is not that you have to include elves and deep history and new languages, but that you have to write endlessly about the things you are a huge nerd about and use those things to create your fantasy world

consuming media is not the enemy!

I see a pernicious narrative floating around these days: consuming media leads to brainrot, there is only value in a pursuit if it is creative. That’s not true! 

Where else do you find inspiration, if not from the wonderful expanse of human experience? Consume whatever you like! fanfics, tv shows, curated art in museums, pulp fiction, reality tv, youtube video essays. Consume whatever grabs your interest, unflinchingly. 

It's when those inspirations are masticated and digested into your own unique perspective that they become something new. That's where truly original art comes from!

I only hate certain types of fic the same way I hate mosquitos and ticks. Like get these nasty little buggers away from me but also I respect their place in the ecosystem.

[sandersstudies]

Me, spraying bug spray: blocked.

[sandersstudies]

Listen and sometimes? To enjoy running through a beautiful field of grass and flowers (ao3) you have to tolerate the fact that bugs (fics you don’t like) are there and maybe you will even encounter one, but you can use bugspray (filtered tags) to reduce the likelihood of that. Because the alternative is not getting to experience the beautiful field of grass and flowers.

[sandersstudies]

And some of my mutuals happen to be entomologists. Which is also cool.

[dvandom]

And sometimes you discover your bug spray has expired (some new horror that's become popular and you hadn't put in filters yet).

we're moving to an internet where children would be banned from reaching out for help and friendship online but abusive parents can post their children's every second online to humiliate and expose them for money with no pushback
