“At the same time, I believe that the argument about boredom has to be somewhat nuanced. It is certainly true that one could feel almost nostalgic for Boredom 1.0. The dreary void of Sundays, the night hours after television stopped broadcasting, even the endless dragging minutes waiting in queues or for public transport: for anyone who has a smartphone, this empty time has now been effectively eliminated. In the intensive, 24/7 environment of capitalist cyberspace, the brain is no longer allowed any time to idle; instead, it is inundated with a seamless flow of low-level stimulus.”
Yet boredom was ambivalent; it wasn’t simply a negative feeling that one simply wanted rid of. For punk, the vacancy of boredom was a challenge, an injunction and an opportunity: if we are bored, then it is for us to produce something that will fill up the space. Yet, it is through this demand for participation that capitalism has neutralised boredom. Now, rather than imposing a pacifying spectacle on us, capitalist corporations go out of their way to invite us to interact, to generate our own content, to join the debate. There is now neither an excuse nor an opportunity to be bored.
(…)
Perhaps the feeling most characteristic of our current moment is a mixture of boredom and compulsion. Even though we recognise that they are boring, we nevertheless feel compelled to do yet another Facebook quiz, to read yet another Buzzfeed list, to click on some celebrity gossip about someone we don’t even remotely care about. We endlessly move among the boring, but our nervous systems are so overstimulated that we never have the luxury of feeling bored. No one is bored, everything is boring.”

What's better than this. Women being dudes.
“I’m not telling you to make the world better, because I don’t think that progress is necessarily part of the package. I’m just telling you to live in it. Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it. To look at it. To try to get the picture. To live recklessly. To take chances. To make your own work and take pride in it. To seize the moment. And if you ask me why you should bother to do that, I could tell you that the grave’s a fine and private place, but none I think do there embrace. Nor do they sing there, or write, or argue, or see the tidal bore on the Amazon, or touch their children. And that’s what there is to do and get it while you can and good luck at it.”
— Joan Didion, Commencement Address at UC Riverside (1975)
God I hope the future is kinder. I hope that they have it figured out better. I hope people don't have to work so much for so little. I hope there's time to explore passions and interests and skills. I hope people get the support they need. I hope the people from the future look back at our problems and are bewildered by them, like I'm confused by how they used to put poisonous lead in make-up, just... "how did they ever think that was okay? How did they live like that?" I hope the cruelties and hidden poisons of our world are one day so distant that they're used as fun facts in trivia games. Please be kinder, future
i think the worst thing ive ever done in my entire life was when i was 13 and on dA i replied with “zomg kira!!!! O.o” to someone informing me that their grandmother had a heart attack and died.

honestly equating enjoyment and poor quality is so dumb like you think everyone reading classics or watching arthouse movies etc are doing it while hating it? idk if it's the mindset that people just do things performatively or to look smart without actually 'being' smart (smartness is a construct ultimately but let's not get into that right now) but like... i guarantee you most people who really love austen or baldwin or hemingway or dostoevsky or morrison or whoever are not pretending. and like fellini or cassavetes or kurosawa filmbros genuinely enjoy them. like im sure there are posers out there and people acting like they like them to just fit into a certain 'aesthetic' or whatever but like. is it so hard to believe that people actually like these things? maybe it's insecurity or projection or anything at all but like... not everyone thinks these things are boring. even people who find them hard work derive 'fun' and enjoyment from them. and im sorry but i do think that a lot of people could benefit from trying them and taking some time with them instead of just rapid consumption of mediocrity. i don't even mean it in a pretentious way i just genuinely think that if u give things a chance u might like it and even if not it'll expand your worldview and knowledge and taste etc etc

learning about a piece of media exclusively through tumblr posts is really funny because you'll probably get the wrong idea about the show in one of four very specific ways
Thinking something fun and light-hearted is a deathly serious social commentary
Thinking something dark or disturbing is actually a wacky comedy
Thinking something with no gay people is actually gay
Thinking something with gay people is homophobic
