i love it when italians argue about italian. like we don’t even know how our language really works we just roll with it

[frocio]

[iphisesque]

Italian is 107 different provincial languages stuck together with spit and half a prayer

[frogcoded]

My bf lives in another region and we are constantly arguing about regional variations of words and we both live in the fucking north of Italy

[putaemo-cional]

one time i saw a map of italy but instead of cities and roads etc it was just covered w different ways you can say the word vagina. it was covered

[frocio]

oh I can think of at least seven ways to say the word vagina right off the top of my head rn. I can’t imagine what I could do if I tried harder

i need you guys to understand that it is completely possible and encouraged for transmascs to talk about their oppression while also not maintaining that misandry is a real axis of oppression (because it's not) and if you get mad at transfem bloggers for pointing this out you do sound like a whiny MRA. i feel like im going a little bit crazy every time i see people attribute forms of oppression to misandry like it's 2024 not 2014 why is this so hard to understand

"men are unable to express interest in traditionally feminine activities like art or baking or gymnastics without facing backlash" that's misogyny "trans women face backlash for being masculine and not over-performing femininity" that's transmisogyny "butch women are discriminated against for being masculine" that's misogyny again "a woman online made a post saying she hates men" oh my god. should we tell everyone? should we call the president

"focaccia, serves 4" yes all 4 me

Pizza, serves 8, yes I 8 it all.

Also while we're all talking about anti-racism, here's a helpful tip:

Performative self-flagellation over being white is not a substitute for doing serious introspection about the ways you have been complicit in or rewarded by a white-supremacist society, nor doing the work to dismantle white supremacy.

A white person chiming in to a conversation about racism to say "I'm sorry for being white" or "white people suck, I say this as a white person" is just a masturbatory way to try to assuage your own feelings of shame without actually doing anything. It doesn't make you look like "one of the good ones." It makes you look like someone who centers your own feelings about it.

Why should all citizens get a certain amount of free food from the government to supplement what they can buy on their own? That’s the sort of stupid commie thing they do in *checks notes* the ancient Roman republic.

i need to gush about how incredibly seamless her compositing is in these. Compositing is incredibly hard and time consuming work on a crisp clean digital image. But compositing into what seems to be a scanned photograph that was shot on film? Insane work. The film grain + photo paper texture is matched perfectly as well as the varying softness from being slightly out of focus in different amounts in each image. Each film stock has its own specific tone too some are warmer, others are more purply, or green and they all handle contrast with light and shadow completely differently. There was so much to take into account doing this and i really dont know how she did it other than maybe finding those locations again and shooting with the same film stock on a day with similar lighting. I cannot stress enough that for professional photographers doing complex compositing is mostly relegated to having a fully locked down camera set up in studio under controlled repeatable lighting. Super impressive and a really fantastic photo series truly.

everyone tells me that ADHD isn't an excuse for being lazy and that there are people with ADHD who have overcome their symptoms and are successful but every day I drag around an invisible dopplegänger of myself who is horrible and listless and always complains. and he is so heavy. I'm ambitious and I'm passionate but he isn't and the problem is that to get anywhere in life I have to grab him by the leg and pull him along the whole way, kicking and screaming, and sometimes it gets exhausting. sometimes he pulls me down with him. and it gets a bit difficult to explain to people why I'm lying down on the floor in pain when they can't see him.

This is genuinely one of the best descriptions of what it feels like to live with adhd.

I often think of it as if one half of my brain is a toddler who doesn’t want to do anything but play with whatever’s in front of them and doesn’t want to stop that to even eat or pee. I have to be very intentional about bribing or redirecting my Mental Toddler to do what we have to do, but it doesn’t always work. Sometimes they throw an absolute fit and refuse. And anyone who knows kids knows you have to take the time and work with them. You can drag them kicking and screaming, and yeah, sometimes you have to do that too. But very sparingly, because it’s miserable and traumatic for everyone involved.

But like op said, no one sees the toddler. They just see me sitting on the couch, staring at the wall or my phone.

I sometimes get pushback when I describe Warhammer 40K Space Marines as eroticised figures, usually on the grounds that canonically, Space Marines can't fuck – then you look at the source material and it's like:

The text frequently dwells on long, luridly detailed lists of the various ways in which Space Marines' bodies have been modified. A disproportionate number of these modifications involve bodily fluids and/or the mouth.

The text tells us that Space Marines' power armour actually makes them less scary to other humans, because the mere sight of a Space Marine's unclothed body causes unenhanced humans to experience primal terror – and sure, you could interpret this as a body horror thing, but it's really not framed that way.

The text tells us that the only way to make a new Space Marine is to cut out part of an existing Space Marine and put it inside you, and that each chapter has a specific guy whose duty is to pick over battlefields and harvest the "gene-seed" of dead Space Marines so that their lineages might carry on.

Frankly, at this point, the fact that they're biomechanically incapable of fucking only makes it more horny.

i am of the crank opinion that the only three ways fans should be able to ask creators questions directly are thus:

PO Box. You gotta put that question in an envelope and pay for a stamp and unless you get a response you don't know if it's been seen, eaten by the mail, or thrown in the trash, and you just live with it.

Letter to the editor in the back of a comic/magazine. Same deal, except an editor reads your question and decides if it's worth passing on and your name and home state get published so it's not fully doxxing you, but you paid for a stamp so you know you need to behave or get mocked.

Q&A session at a convention. If you're an asshole, convention security gets to tackle you. For fun.

I am also tentatively willing to accept authors soliciting fan interaction on their own but if you wouldn't send it through the postal service or say it in front of 200 attendees crammed into a Ramada Inn then it just doesn't need to reach a creator. You have fellow fans to engage with. Piss them off instead. It's much funnier.

I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.

He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense

[status-quo-hater]

Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.

My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.

Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.

He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM

we need to bring back old school tumblr communication and im so serious. sending an ask to a mutual just to say hello. seeing three different asks in your inbox all asking how your dentist appointment went. seeing a post you think one of your mutuals would enjoy and tagging them/sending it to them in the dms. nowadays its just silently liking a post or (if youre feeling extreme) replying under posts. WHAT HAPPENED TO US!! we used to be a proper community!!!! #LetsBringWhimsyBack
