there is literally no funnier way of annoying your friends than choosing the stupidest hill imaginable and then refusing to die anywhere else

I'm all for analysing how tragedy is meaningful and important and so on but I do think people really underrate the "wanna see something fucked up?" instinct as a reason for engaging with fiction.

I found a document from 1652 that’s just a guy talking about how women are better than men and wow he’s a little confused but he got the spirit.

[sandersstudies]

Literally every man in 1652: If she breathes, she a THOT!

This one random guy: All women are queens!

[sandersstudies]

This idiot who loves women a lot: you see…women are perfect…you can tell because when they fall down…God made it so they usually fall on their back…which hurts less and prevents them from damaging their beautiful faces…wow women are so smart and beautiful

[sandersstudies]

This absolute dumbass who treasures women with his whole soul: you know how sometimes women…are bad? It’s actually just proof that they are way more powerful than men and they could totally kill us if they wanted to but they don’t because they’re just that nice they literally don’t need us for shit

[sandersstudies]

For those wondering, the document is called “The Glory of Women” OR “A Treatise declaring the excellency and preheminence of Women above Men, which is proved both by Scripture, Law, Reason, and Authority, Divine and Humane.”

Yeah. That’s the title.

Look, I love the fae jokes. Hozier looks like he was pulled from a bog after a 1,500 year nap. His lyrics are poetic and morbid and romantic in a very other worldly way. BUT He’s right. Hozier has talked A LOT about how his music could not, would not exist without decades of innovation and creativity by Black artists. His entire style is based on soul and gospel and blues, WHICH ARE GENRES CREATED BY BLACK PEOPLE.

“My first introduction to music [was] Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin’ Wolf, the music that my dad used to play in the house. From there, I just fell in love with the music coming out of black America. A lot of my folk influences would be coming from Ireland. There is absolutely no rock and roll without blues music. There is no blues music without one of the most horrendous atrocities of human trafficking in the last few centuries. It is, of course, a really difficult subject. Everything that’s popular music swings off the work and the achievements and the legacy of black artistry…”

So while I love the fae bog man jokes, we have to acknowledge the tremendous influence of Black artists. There’s no Hozier without Black music.

If yall couldn’t hear this in Work Song idk what to tell you. I really wish people could see past their imposed aesthetics of him and join the conversation he’s using his privileged to start.

[somesaypoetry]

Work Song is literally named after another song notably sang by Nina Simone

In fact, Hozier’s song Nina Cried Power (the title of which mainly refers to her singing “Power!” in the bridge of Sinnerman, I think) straight up lists several of his musical influences in the lyrics [link], and he says so himself [link].

And y’all should really listen to any and all artists Hozier mentions, they are excellent.

[solomontoaster]

Someone (not me) made a playlist that compiles a bunch of musicians and music that Hozier has said inspired him, it’s great and y’all should have a listen.

Genuinely I enjoy criticisms of America as a nation for Obvious Reasons of Color but so many of y’all are just like “I hate Americans because they [something only white people do] [something only white people do] [something we’re forced to deal with due to our government] [something that even white Americans will mock you for doing] [something only rich people can afford to do] [movie trope] [something you would only bring up if you’re fatphobic] [something that Canada also does but hides behind the “we’re just super nice teehee” stereotype] [something that your country does but you recognize is not inherently the fault of all citizens] [literally just capitalism] [something you’ll only see in like, Maine] [something Americans complain about constantly] [movie trope] [something only white people do]”
