It’s easy to talk shit on Tumblr about all these people in Hollywood taking a stand and “just wearing black” but they literally brought activists from all different organizations as dates and had them speak and they’re all donating and urging others to donate and SPEAKING ABOUT IT ON A HIGHLY WATCHED AWARDS SHOW. Like that means something. It means A LOT. I’m not saying there aren’t some hypocrites but at some point it seems like nothing is gonna be good enough for anyone. This is important and it matters.
Yall calling what people were doing at the Golden Globes a bunch of “performative nonsense” but activism itself is largely performative? Like kneeling during the national anthem. Like marching on DC. Activism is about making yourself seen and heard and they did that. Also they donated and raised a bunch of money and brought activists with them but whatever I’m not gonna speak on this anymore.
i want to live in rome and wear billowing white blouses everyday and eat pomegranates and risotto and wine and go to cathedrals to see the art and explore the catacombs by candlelight
