TENDER LOIN @musyke - Tumblr Blog

I don't want a profession. Yes, I am studying political science but no, that's not all I want to be. I want to be a poet, a journalist, a singer, a sociologist, a writer, a rockstar, an artist, a film director, an actress, an intellectual. I want people to search my occupation and find a list as long as Da Vinci's. I want to be useful in the way that I change the world for the better, but also completely useless in the way art is.

Nu dans un intérieur, 1935 by Pierre Bonnard (French, 1867--1947)

tumblr is the funniest social media site to go viral on

were--ralph

on tiktok people will quit their jobs after going viral once but on here not only can any post get 50k notes, but if it does theres nothing you can do with it. theres no monetization or any transferable skills at all. you just made a funny post and people liked it and thats the start and end of your career

were--ralph

you could say "i left the stove on" with no context and it might break containment on here and people start tagging it with ships and kins and theres no way to delete it forever unless staff gets involved. your mistake will never go away but your claim to fame will instantly

its like yes im the pineapple werewolf guy but no one outside of here and like 5 posts on reddit will ever know what that sentence means. i could jump on tiktok and no one would know me. no one on youtube or facebook. this is my little corner of the internet and i will die here before i give up that title and when i do know i lost nothing in the process

firm believer you can't be a ''good person''. too much niuance to life.

whyenn-reader

you can be good (adjective) but you cannot be good (identity)

whyenn-reader

if you think you are good (identity) you are more likely to cause harm as you don't consider yourself to be capable of it

The thing about Miss Piggy is that she kind of has a Roger Rabbit comedy superpower where she wins nearly any conceivable fight she's in. But unlike other characters of which that's true, like say, Bugs Bunny, who tend to win because they make the opponent play the game with their rules, Miss Piggy wins because the joke is that she can beat the shit out of literally anybody.

I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive

I think part of getting better is complete ego death. Like you’re not above setting a timer for 5 minutes and focusing on a task. You’re not above doing a very simple 3 minute workout to start. You’re not above reading for 10 minutes a day when you first get out of your reading slump, even if you used to read for hours. You’re not above starting slow and then building up to where you want to be/where you once were. What you are above is total inertia. Doing something really is better than doing nothing. Radically accept where you are, radically accept your limits, and go from there. Don’t let your ego get in the way.

it should be a crime to have responsibilities durning a rainstorm. i should have no responsibility other than enjoying the rain

I enjoy a joke about fucked up German fairy tales as much as the next nerd, but it's genuinely striking how often the source for the really fucked up stuff turns out to be "yeah, this is only in the Brothers Grimm version and doesn't appear in any extant oral tradition, and we're like 80% sure they added it themselves". To a large extent it's not German fairy tales that are fucked up, it's two specific German dudes.

in retrospect we probably should have given the fairy tale writing to the Brothers Happy instead

Nobody was doing it like Mary Magdalene. Tits out. Standing on a mountain. Holding a skull. She’s like the lesbian catholic hamlet. Aesthetically an absolute win for the gays.

Like if I was some peasant girl a few hundred years ago who visited a church or an Italian noble’s house and saw THIS, I’d be signing up with the nun recruiters they sent to my village school on the SPOT.

I just had a flashback to a past life.

On April 13, 1985, Danuta Danielsson - a Jewish-Polish woman whose mother was taken to a concentration camp in WWII - hit a local neonazi with her handbag in Växjö, Sweden.

Update: The neonazis were subsequently expelled from the city, and a statue was erected in her honor.

This week 34 years ago, Danuta Danielsson demonstrated how much respect fascists deserve.

vbartilucci

Well played, Danuta Danielsson.

And good aim.

She hit them so hard they were banished from that land forever. Iconic

Happy 40th Annual Hit a Nazi with a Handbag Day

How dare you leave out that the Swedish government was against the statue, out of concern that it could promote violence, and the people added handbags to statues across the country out of protest!
