Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story?

Returning to tumblr after a many year hiatus. Still a musical lover and a diehard Chicago gal. I’m a high school social studies teacher who loves musicals…oh, and I’m now married, so that’s weird.

"hey, bobby, ginger's kid came out to her as non-binerary! can you believe it?"

"non-binary."

"huh? wha? what'd i say?"

"you said 'non-binerary.' the word is non-binary."

"right. non-byrony."

"oh my god"

[5weekdays]

"ginger's gonna march with her kid in the parade next year! she's so excited!"

"she'll get to make signs... chant slogans..."

"you sound kind of jealous, lin."

"well, maybe i *am* jealous. maybe *i* wanna be a PFLAG mom."

"pee flag!!"

"gene."

[5weekdays]

"...kids, are any of you non-binary?"

"i respond to both 'attaboy' and 'you go, girl!'"

"i'm whatever gender gets the coolest happy meal toys."

listen, if you believe Glass Onion's message of bashing super rich people is a form of "self"-critique, then you clearly don't understand who the 1% are.

When Rian Johnson calls out fake Elon Musk in his fun detective movie, this is not an attempt at "self-deprecating humor". Rian Johnson is "I own nice houses"-rich, he is not "I control nations, wars, economies, and the livelihoods of millions"-rich like Elon Musk is.

Rian Johnson is closer in his wealth to you than he is to Elon Musk, by far.

I am all for holding rich people accountable, I support calling out the Hollywood industry. But we *need* to learn to tell billionaires and millionaires apart, or our criticism of the political system will be fraught.

A visual comparison, thanks to Humphrey Yang on YouTube (not an endorsement, I don't know what the rest of his videos are like)

First we see one hundred thousand dollars, represented by a single grain of rice. Alongside is one million dollars, represented by ten grains.

Now we see one million dollars compared to one billion.

This is a transitional frame to show how much we have to zoom out before the next comparison...

And here's Elon Musk's 2020 net worth, thirty billion dollars.

Keeping that scale in mind, see how much we have to zoom out to see his 2022, pre-Twitter net worth of one hundred and ninety five billion dollars. Note that the pile is so big Yang couldn't even fit it in frame without making the note too distance to read.

Now look back up, and remember that the average person doesn't even make a fraction of a single grain.

Rian Johnson is quite wealthy, but the most generous estimations of his net worth don't even place him at a quarter of the third pile. To put a someone like Rian Johnson in the same category of wealth as Musk, Bezos, Gates et al, is like putting a public pool in the same category as the Pacific Ocean. Both have more water than your bathtub, but they are absolutely not the same.

It's still so strange to me how apparently taboo it is to like a post on someone's Instagram from a month ago when there are posts still circulating on Tumblr from 1550 BCE

[roolsilver]

If he didn't want it circulating in 2022 he should have sold better copper

We got you buddy

They just all swarm to save him…this is truly so beautiful
