I like Marie Kondo because I’m so used to all the rhetoric around “decluttering” or “tidying up” being about how it’s somehow immoral to own things and that we need to burn our possessions and all live in sterile minimalist Hell in a plain white apartment with a deck chair and one potted plant.

So I like hearing the tidy lady tell me that yes I should live in a hovel with a bunch of linguistics books and dragon statues and here are some ways to keep the hovel clean and orderly while I lurk in it.

It’s so refreshing.

All the other home decor people: “Kitschy nerd shit is a waste of space and you’re gonna get your soul devoured by a chaos dragon or some shit if you don’t get rid of all of it right now.”

Marie Kondo: “See, if you organize the kitchen in this way, you can display these Khorn Berzerker miniatures far more prominently.”

The idea that you should model your life after what brings YOU joy, rather than what society/people think should bring you joy, is an act of rebellion.

No offence, but like... Sometimes, things that don't spark immediate "joy" like old art notebooks are actually useful and I did feel like the prioritisation on "joy, joy, joy" 24/7 made me give that up.

" 'Truth is stranger than fiction', as the old saying goes. When I watch a documentary I can't help crying and then think to myself 'Fiction can't compete with this.' But when I mentioned this to a veteran Manga artist friend of mine, he said 'Fiction brings salvation to characters in stories that would otherwise have no salvation at all.' His words strengthened the conviction of my manga spirit."

Can we just talk for a second about how Disney fully could have leaned into the crazy Latina women and husbands who roll their eyes at it, but Felix is always so fuckin quick to validate her. Not one crazy joke, not even a single comment, just fully encourages her to feel her emotions.

when she’s crying at Antonio’s ceremony, he could fully have been like yo chill stop being dramatic, but all he says is love, you’re gonna get him wet. Not a, don’t cry, not an omg stop, just a gentle reminder to move the cloud over a little.

And with the whole hurricane wedding, he’s not, oh she ruined the weather or ugh it was a disaster. Just a, what a joyous day. Like she’s warning mirabel and he’s like fuck yeah I get to talk about one of the best days of my life

Look how fucking happy he is, getting pelted by hail by his fucking goddess of a wife

Ok but f’real though, this is such a good example of feminine clothing actually tailored to fit a masculine body.

I think a not insignificant part of the gendered clothing issue is that because men’s clothing is by nature looser fitting, women can wear it and have it look decent on them because the clothing will still fit more or less the way it’s supposed to. The reverse isn’t true - because women’s clothing tends to be tighter, it’s often not going to look good on a man’s body that doesn’t have curves in the same places. But that doesn’t mean that a dress is always going to look terrible on a man, it just means that those dresses need to be purpose built for different body types. And that would help everyone: trans, cis, fat, thin, muscular, skinny, etc

I’ve reblogged this before and I’ll do it again, both for the statement of how important cut is to making clothes look good on your body, and for the absolutely gorgeous man in the video.

i think any vietnam vet with the audacity to go back to vietnam on vacation should be overwhelmingly grateful their tour guide doesn’t just murder them
