“Your art isn’t valued by the number of notes you get” okay but. If you spent 6 hours baking a cake for a party, but no one at the party eats your cake, it’s still disappointing.

This articulates something about the different between value and validation that I didn’t previously register on a conscious level.

straight boys are weak and pathetic, queer girls walk into the ladies changing room and see ten women naked, do they stare? do they say something inappropriate? do they make them uncomfortable? no because they have the common fucking sense to recognise when a situation is sexual and that people deserve the most basic level of respect to not be harassed, yet here we are banning shorts and low cut tops in school because straight boys are weak and pathetic

[floozys-deactivated20180908]

okay i made this post this morning and it has since had eighty two thousand notes, it’s been featured on reddit, facebook, twitter i’ve been sent multiple death threats and messages that i don’t even want to describe

I had a dream last night that they made a new Bond movie, but they didn’t say who was playing Bond. Throughout the movie you have no idea which character is really Bond, because he’s undercover, duh. And every single character, no matter how minor, was played by somebody famous, so they could all conceivably be Bond. And at the end it turns out Bond was Leslie Jones.

Literally heard a convo at the library where a guy was telling a girl that he’s an omega and the girl telling him that she’s a beta, and my mind just did not automatically connect the context to fraternity pledge classes at all and I just whispered to myself “what the fuck?? What the fuck??”

Just watched Jupiter Ascending last night and found it honestly brilliant. It’s an anti-capitalist screed masquerading as shameless female wish fulfillment and ridiculous space opera. I can see how one might get caught up in the ludicrousness of royalty-detecting bees and “I love dogs” and the amazing costuming but there’s so much going on under the surface. Immigrant women getting exploited while their true potential goes to waste. People viewed as commodities. The police protect the financial interests of the wealthy while ignoring the widespread death caused by industrial exploitation. I was endlessly charmed by all the camp and lovely CGI, but damn, the politics. Jupiter Ascending really is a thinking woman’s Fifth Element.
