"what if i'm misinterpreting this character whose only discernable character traits and motives are being impossible to interpret" and other rational fears

LESS THAN TWO HOURS AGO: four cornell students have been suspended (and at least the one reporting was evicted, unknown about the others) for their involvement with their campus's gaza solidarity encampment. during a school year centering freedom of expression no less!

the laios/toshiro conflict is super well written ("let's honor falin's death" vs "i will stop at nothing to bring her back"). but also it's so fucking funny that this happens amidst the sudden reveal that your extremely beloved autistic main character has been slowly driving an asian man nuts through microaggressions.

i think that people should start using “in poor taste” as a descriptor again given it is often the most applicable and clearest phrase when discoursing about media and analysis; sometimes a piece of art isn’t actually THE most problematic thing of all time is is. ​just in poor taste (not JUST in poor taste as a reductive take on potential harm but/and as in regardless of intent the impact is this was an offensive or stupid take/choice)

i think we trc likers on the internet really undervalue and ignore the really fascinating and well done world building and magic system that maggie steifvater crafted. yes the characters and their relationships are exquisite and i’m glad they are appreciated but like the blurring of worlds and time and mythology is amazing. unfortunately she also does this magic trick with her writing where 24 hours after one finishes a maggie steifvater book any details other than the characters and the broadest story arcs erase themselves from ones brain, so i do not fault myself for this nor any of u. rip

hey, museum folks. on April 16, the ceiling in the library at Boscobel House collapsed unexpectedly

Before the collapse.

This New York mansion from 1806 was saved AFTER demolition in the 1950s, when the architectural elements were recovered and reassembled in another location near its original site. It's of great artistic and historical significance, not the least because the staff has been working on a project to document the lives of the family's Black servants- the ones who were free when hired, and the ones who had been enslaved by said family and freed before the house was finished -since 2020

if anyone can donate even a little bit to help with the recovery efforts, here is the link
