"For Only Girl (In the World), at the time we were recording that, I was living in this very shitty small town in the South, in the United States, and really fucking hated it. The only kind of good thing about this town was there was a very small lesbian bar, that was open just on Saturdays I think, and they always had a good dance night, and I could walk there basically so I could get really fucking drunk and walk home and not worry about it, so I would go there a whole lot, and then one night I went there and the dance floor was totally empty, there were a lot of people there but no one was dancing, and then the DJ put that song on, and then like all the really super intense butch dykes were on the dance floor all dancing together to that song, and it was the lyrics are “you make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world,” and it was just all of the things: the shitty little town, in the shitty part of the United States, and then this sort of rarified very small lesbian bar, and like butch dykes are a very small specific segment of the queer world with a very specific history, and then this pop song, I’m sure every Rihanna song is like 50 people write it, it’s a song by committee essentially, and even though something that was somewhat sanitized was able to create a very real emotional movement for this marginalized group of people in a marginalized part of the United States, it was very very beautiful to me and it made me hear that song in a totally different way. So, it was as much about wanting to pay tribute to that moment, and to what music can be generally, as much as it was to that song specifically."

the difference between Starbucks and Dunks from a food quality standpoint is that Starbucks will make exactly the same stuff exactly the same way every time, whereas Dunks has a 1/3 chance to be normal, 1/3 chance to be the divine ambrosia of heaven, and 1/3 chance to be rendered completely inedible depending on who prepared it that day. but then you also have to factor in that Dunks keeps cycling in extremely good menu items for a month only to remove them and never bring them back. yes im mad about the breakfast empanadas

been watching the Fallout show with bailey and regrettably must report that it's actually pretty enjoyable when watched as intended (a bingeable tv series) and not dissected to death on Youtube via overanalyzed 5-second clips. i particularly like how much fun the prop department had - at one point they have a guy handling a water chip, and you can tell they were working directly from the fallout 1 renders

On the subject of orwell and his rancid anticommunism, his flagship title "animal farm" is not simply a "satire of the USSR"; it is a full and total repudiation of the idea of proletarian rule at all. The entire book depicts the workers as dumb and incapable and easily manipulated by leaders. This is a fully aristocratic view of the proletariat and entirely anti-proletarian. This should be no surprise to people who are familiar with orwell's opinions and past, including the fact that he has "never been able to dislike Hitler" (actual quote, March 21, 1940) and that he was a colonialist cop.

Excerpt from Soviet-Armenian film Nahapet Նահապետ (1977) directed by Henrik Malyan. Based on a novel by Hrachya Kochar, the film depicts the Armenian genocide of 1915. Nahapet is a survivor who tries to rebuild his life after the tragic loss of his family. The scene is accompanied with Armenian folk song “Dle Yaman” Դլե Յաման, which became a hymn of the genocide, here it is sung by Melania Abovian. 

One of the recurring scenes in the film involves scores of red apples falling from a tree, rolling into a river, and floating en masse downstream. The scene is a painful symbolic reminder of the multitude of Armenian bodies thrown into the Euphrates by the Young Turk regime during the genocide. (x)

An apple tree on the lakeshore, with countless red fruits rolling down towards the blue water, is how Malyan, the ‘lyricist’ of Armenian cinema, pictures the huge loss sustained by his nation. Yet like all true metaphors, this image is multi-semantic and means not only loss but continuation, the prospect of reaching the shore one day. […] ‘salvation’ and ‘revival’ of the apple tree symbolize the rebirth of a massacred nation. (x)

Some guy on Twitter had his wife go to the Columbia protests with a shirt that had “JEW” written on it in big letters and the video was the biggest flop bc he kept having to turn the camera around so that signs like “JEWS FOR A FREE PALESTINE” wouldn’t be in the shot.
