Imagine going to hell and losing your beautiful curls to a fuckass bob I'd be maladapted and unstable too

(ref under the cut:)

Lmao. This one's from '47 I believe. I'm just glad my endless supply of old radio magazines and ads is getting used for something. Bottom left of the first page is referenced from a Leyendecker sock advert!

Radios on the doodles are both Philcos, Model 90 and the 20 Baby Grand respectively, because I remain desperate for a working pre-WWII radio, and pretty cathedral/tombstone ones are kind of annoying to find here in Germany. One day...

thinking abt tipsy wm giggling into each others mouths tucked into a corner of cats couch but that’s not even enough at a certain point bc people keep trying to talk to will and wish him happy birthday and finally when everyone’s distracted with toff telling a story from back when he was on the northstars wills whispering ‘cmon cmon’ and tugging mack up with him and down the hallway and macks bumping into will, finding him warm and pliable, pressing closer, one hand fumbling clumsily at wills hip like ‘what are we doooiiingg where are we going smittt’ but following him anyways ofc because wills ideas are always the best and they end up down the hall opening random doors and macks stomach swoops in anticipation thinking maybeeee just maybe and then they’re in cats recording studio and wills closed the door and it’s so quiet all of a sudden and macks leaning up against the recording desk and wills leaning back against the door and mack smiles at him because if he fuzzes out his vision he can almost see two of will which is great bc what’s better than one of him and he’s just so glad to be with will now and all of the time but he doesn’t know how to articulate all of that so he just he says ‘happy birthday’ and wills face flushes harder and he can’t stop giggling and it sounds so strange coming out of wills mouth all breathy and high and maybe macks a little obsessed with it and wants to hear it all the time and so when will grins and says ‘hey yknow what would be hilarious? recording a podcast right now’ mack immediately forgets about getting on his knees like he’d planned to because anything to keep will laughing and happy

i'm going to swing at the hornets' nest, but. as a person from pribaltika, i have to synthesize through myself a lot of media which is just plain russophobia stuff. that's not fine, of course, but we move. i genuinely don't understand how so called 'leftists' (bullshit label) can see the current mcr tour which is all about 'authoritarism' (not an actual thing) and after the whole spiel how its made up language is aesthetically similar to kirilica, people talking about 'american fascism' using russian communism symbols... how are you not ashamed, people. i understand liking #problematic media, but this is just plainly foul to me.

So god created us in his image, right? And that’s cool and all but what if it turns out god, like, hates his own image??? What then????

i could never get into waitress the musical bc the overall premise just feels like a version of womanhood and Life As A Woman that is completely foreign to me despite SO many people feeling seen and represented by it

also idk i just can't help but think so many stories esp in recent years are about women who do NOT want to raise a child but never for a second consider abortion. and if you bring up that like well if she was horrified about her accidental unwanted pregnancy then she should have had an abortion, people love to respond that supporting the right to choose means you have to support when women choose to have the baby

and it's just like. okay but this is a story. jenna is a fictional character who was written in this way for a reason and not a real woman who has the real agency to Actually Make A Choice (just like all the other characters in fictional stories in the last 20 years who end up unexpectedly pregnant and make it clear that this is undesirable for them). and people are like well you need the pregnancy for the story to happen and jenna is also pro-choice (and thus so is the musical) because she says so when she rejects the doctor presenting that option initially she's just making her choice to keep this baby that she initially very much does not want. and yeah i'm sure sara bareilles herself is in fact pro choice and i of all people understand the need for a potentially unrealistic plot contrivance to occur in order to allow the story to occur, but why is it always this fucking story

why is it always a woman who does NOT want a baby and is not in a place in her life to raise a child refusing an abortion for no stated reason except she doesn't want one even in the same breath as she reaffirms she also doesn't want a child, and then learning to love and want her child through the process of her pregnancy and in doing so love herself. (in the less uplifting version of this kind of story, the pregnancy just makes protagonist's life worse and miserable)

why do people keep writing stories about women who get pregnant accidentally and vehemently do not want a child and have the correct liberal value of being pro-choice and do explicitly have access to abortion care but absolutely do not even want to consider an abortion for themselves. i mean i know why but. feels fucking bad! feels like it's gonna get keep getting worse as abortion access becomes more and more restricted! well. whatever. can't do anything about that i guess. we live in hell
