I just think TTPD is not an album you can understand and fully digest in one listen or even a few listens and that's what makes it so great. It is accessible in terms of its melodies and high-level storytelling but the lyrical details are poetic and complex. I'm really just so excited to spend a lot of time with this album.

I love Tumblr because nothing matters here truly. There are no influencers. Having followers doesn’t mean anything. It’s just a site where people post their sporadic thoughts and rb pretty pictures. Anyone who thinks any of this matters is woefully missing the point

I think this is people who are relatively new to the free Palestine movement, but I find the obsession with celebrity acknowledgement of Palestine utterly discombobulating. on the one hand, sure, it'd be great to have people with large audiences raising awareness for Palestinian liberation. On the other hand, why does it seem like some of youse care more about who is talking about Palestine, than Palestine itself? How many times do we have to learn the lesson that celebrities hold no tangible power? The revolution will not be led and won by celebrities or by any individual. Revolution is done by collective action on the ground over generations. Some people have fallen for the cult of individualism so bad that you genuinely think keeping track of which celebrities are supporting Palestine, or even harassing celebrities to talk on Palestine is more valuable to the movement than actual direct action like attending rallies, protests, blockades, making donations, elevating Palestinians, etc. I'm so sick of seeing posts like, "if Taylor Swift/insert celeb here spoke about Palestine then there would be change". It's childish. Your belief in the liberation of Palestine and her people should not be so flimsy that you need celebrities with nothing in common with you to validate that belief.

Using dissociate instead of zoning out. Describing a hobby as a hyperfixation. Saying nonverbal when you want a bit of quiet. Saying intrusive thoughts because that must mean an urge like to buy coffee or hair dye. Do you know feeling off sometimes is a sign of autism? Lying is gaslighting. Everyone I dislike is a narcissist.

The Four Sacred Artistic Motives:

-what if this bad thing was good instead

-how about Make-Believe Land can have whatever I want

-would that be fucked up or what

-I think that shit's hot

still amazes me that by season 45 or whatever, Supernatural was being exclusively watched by delusionally hopeful women with flamingo-salinity tolerance for bad writing and the creators still couldn’t pander to them because maybe there was 1 straight guy out there still accidentally watching it

Insane to me that there are people who genuinely believe that Noora and William shared a healthy and mutually beneficial relationship. Insane to me that there are people who think it's a good deconstruction of the good girl bad boy trope. Insane to me that there are people who think they are the Darcy and Elizabeth of SKAM. Insane to me that people saw an older boy who had unprotected sex with a young girl, gave her a pregnancy scare, destroyed her self esteem enough to give her an eating disorder, apologized to her in a half assed way because he was promised a date, blackmailed and harassed her female friend into going out with him and they thought "omg so cute this is what young love looks like!" And then they point to nooreva and say it won't work because *checks smudged writing on palm* eva idolizes noora and doesn't see her true self. be fucking for real.

I really think people have forgotten just how bad things were under the Trump Administration. Literally every day there was news about some service being cut or someone terrible appointed somewhere they shouldn't be or what have you. He constantly flirted with WW3 and military dictatorship. It was such a blur of badness that there aren't big standouts for people to point to to make him "the XYZ president." it was everything. all the time. Why do we not remember this.

I will never forgive CinemaSins for how they contributed to the decline in media literacy in the last ten years and you can tell them I said that if you want. Not everything that is unexplained in media is plothole. Not every mistake is worthy of scorn and if a twist is visible prior to it hitting, that is not a bad thing. Your trivial nitpicking has set back the human ability to discuss media at least 30 years
