just saw this coffee ad that uses the 1962 song "little boxes"

the commercial clearly intends to evoke pleasant, comfortable, heartwarming thoughts of waking up in your cute little middle-class suburban house and having a quiet cup of coffee

which would be great, right. except. "little boxes" is, very famously, satirizing middle-class conformity and suburbia (ref):

The song is a social satire[1][2][3] about the development of suburbia and associated conformist middle-class attitudes. It mocks suburban tract housing as "little boxes" of different colors "all made out of ticky-tacky" and which "all look just the same".

i know "conformity is a virtue!" is not the message they're going for but... it's just. interesting. that nobody on their ad team listened to the lyrics and thought, gee, does anybody else think this song about losing your individuality to the homogeneity of middle-class life might be subverting the Cozy Suburbia ideals that we're going for here?

How I think I’m writing: Using eye contact, or lack thereof, to display emotions such as intimacy, shock, denial, or nervousness. 

How I’m actually writing: She looked at me, and I looked away. I tried to look back, but she was already looking at the sky. “Look,” she sighs, looking back at me for a split second. “I don’t know how to say this.” We looked at each other and time stopped, but then she looked her lookers at something else to look at, looking tired.

Young people are too invested in the comically unreasonable dream of having a full time job, making enough money to not waste their life thinking about budgeting for necessities, living in something other than a cardboard shoebox, and having like 3-4 friends who they actually like and who care about them. Instead they should be thinking about networking, producing content, optimizing workflows, and training their body into the perfect commodity

As a principled feminist I'm often tempted to say shit like "are men capable of higher thought" but then I have to remember not to perpetuate gender essentialism and change it to "why do men choose not to think about anything"
