Cicero @popularis-cicero - Tumblr Blog

Greetings, people of tumblr.

You already know my name; I am Cicero, renowned Roman politician and lawyer. I crushed the Catilinarian conspiracy single-handedly, I led the Republic as consul, and I pride myself in the fact that I acted as an advisor to many of the most esteemed Roman political figures.

Unfortunately, since my death, and the fall of the empire, it has been harder and harder to achieve my dream of Concordia Ordinum — harmony of the orders. I hope that my online presence will allow me to achieve this.

the way the internet talks about japan is fascinating i never see any other country get equally treated as both a beautiful cultured utopia and an evil imperialist hellhole. you ever just wanna be like hey guys i think japan might be a country. a normal country with good and bad aspects. has anyone thought of this. could be huge.

every time I see some mfer say that every episode is about Jax and he "shouldn't be a main character" I just think about how, no, all the episodes actually weren't about Jax, but if he's the character who drew your attention and remains the most memorable... that's some main character stuff there huh?

I've never met a fandom more annoyed that the main characters are the main characters, it's kind of hilarious. Imagine whining on the internet because Simba is the main character of the Lion King.

An archivist found a long forgotten 8mm film reel in an old metal box, marked “Philippines 1942”. Thinking it was lost WWII footage, he sent it in to be restored/digitized. When he got the footage back, he found puppies instead (via)

This is so freaking profound. Like, this was before the advent of the personal camera. Not just anyone owned a camera in these days. Cameras were expensive, and so was the film. When you were recording shit, it had to be stuff you were willing to shell out a pretty penny to have preserved. Someone so deeply and profoundly loved these dogs and found joy in them that they decided to preserve them for future generations to see, after these pups are long dead and gone. This camera operator wanted to preserve the joy these dogs brought them and to share it with others. How incredible is that?

[Tweet from @/fozmeadows: "human gender and sexuality are very much like animal taxonomy, in that both look structured and simple on the surface, but once you start investigating, it turns out there's actually no such thing as a fish despite the fact that we all know what a fish is, and that's okay"]

futureevilscientist

As a biologist, that is a fantastic comparison.

We talk about “fish” (which, cladistically, do not exist, there is no monophyletic group of “fish” that simultaneously includes all organisms we understand to be “fish”-like while also excluding, say, humans) because, despite the utter fiction that is fish, it’s still a useful label when we talk about certain features that “fish” tend to have in common.

Gender is absolutely the same way.

#gooseworx even put out a post saying “jax and pomni are the main characters”#“oh noooo the creator isn't making my favourite character the focus of the narrative” well i'm sorry but that's kinda how stories work #the writer writes the story they want to tell and you can engage with the media if you like it #want more zooble content? go read a fanfic

some things that horror movie culture has taught you are scary…. are just ableist

artishroom

….clarify?

fangirlinginleatherboots

okay sure. psychosis? scarier to have than to know someone who has it. DID? im more a threat to myself than people around me. wheelchairs and psych meds? are tools that help people live more functional and flexible lives and are not judgments of the persons character and for sure are not scary things. and for real, intellectually disabled people are not threats, but movies love to make them villains because they act different and understand the world differently. and people with notable physical differences? people who’s bodies look different? people with scars, growths, amputations, etc? are literally just people. and seeing themselves painted like monsters on the big screen is absolutely sickening and damaging to how society will see them.

its not only bad writing but its extremely harmful to people who actually live with conditions that are misrepresented in media. when i found out i had DID, my mom freaked out because her only point of reference was Sybil. when i was younger and first went on psych meds, i thought it meant i was set on a track to be a bad person, because in so many movies and video games you find out the bad guy has medication in his bed side table for some sort of psych disorder. the worst thing a hallucination has ever made me do was wake my mom up at 3 AM to check my bathroom to see if the bugs i saw everywhere were real and the worst thing an “episode” of any sort has made me do is hurt myself. my ptsd doesnt make me kill people, my alters dont kidnap people, my autism doesnt make me so morally unaware that ill murder for senselessly, my ocd doesnt make me hurt people etc etc etc

literally the only “horror” is the ableism. and the only way you can write good horror about disability and mental illness is if the focus is on how society and the medical field treat us rather than focusing on how we are apparently so scary, threatening, and bad.

quiet-reassurance

Horror is and has historically been an incredibly ableist genre, and it is still largely unrecognized as such. This has genuine severe and real-life consequences for disabled and neurodivergent people in real life. Please keep this in mind if you are abled and/or neurotypical.
