homogenising something that has always been inherently diverse will kill us all one day.

#-> myra text #political critique #that is why hindutva should have not been popularised. hindutva is not decolonisation or reclamation. #it is homogenising and exclusionist. it takes away the diverse history of this country. #but this statement will reach deaf ears. rather than critiquing nobility they will go and bark casteist and islamphobic bs. #did invaders did what invaders do? yes. but this whole property destruction and lives being at risk has been going on for years. #biggest example who are quite popular: ajatshatru (son of bimbisara) & ashoka the great (the massacre at kaling) #i'm all in for criticising nobility i have no respect for any kings despite their religion and community and whatever. #they're all shits who benefited and left the common people to rot. #these people will say that tipu sultan is the devil reborn but will go on praising the marathas #as if the marathas did not cause a bloodshed in bengal karnataka and the punjab regions. not saying tipu is good but i rather #wanted to point out the hypocrisy of people in certain spaces. its a good thing to appreciate history and even better thing to learn from #the mistakes made in past but some of you guys did not understand the whole point. #absolute shit head cunts some of you guys are. come at me brand me whatever slurs you fuckers use i don't give a shit #calling people sex slaves just because they don't subscribe to your viewpoint is not the big own you think it is. #sanghi bs #india #hindutva

I truly do think one of the largest pitfalls among the "media consumption is my passion" crowd is the tendency to treat characters as human beings with agency rather than narrative tools manipulated by the author

#as soon as you start assigning agency to characters any criticism of the series comes under strawman fallacy arguments #about how humans make irrational choices not always understood by others etc etc etc #thus insulating the author and the work from any sort of meaningful criticism or analysis #i think current popular advice on character writing overemphasizes relatability and likability at the expense of narrative relevance #it certainly isn't hurtful to do exercises where you think about their coffee order or favourite animal or preferred toilet paper brand #but none of that matters in the end if you have no idea what purpose a character is supposed to serve in a literary sense

reverse nerdy girl makeover Disney Channel original movie, where a girl moves away from her old town and slowly comes to realize in the new environment she's in that her old friend group was super toxic. her new friends help her rediscover her interests, be herself even if others judge her, wear clothing in a style she actually likes and that fits her, and most importantly, put those glasses back on that her old friends said made her look ugly. she's happy for the first time in years, and eventually, a girl falls in love with her smile and adores how unapologetically passionate she is, and they get together.

#where the makeover is for herself and the love is incidental. where the girl learns she can be happy without existing to be pretty to others #bonus points: she:s actually amab and started out in boy mode‚ but her new friends helped her discover she's a woman #OR he's a guy nd realizes he's a guy. but his girlfriend is bi so it's okay. or she's a lesbian and they part as good friends #existenceunrelateds #writing prompt #??? #idk i just think it's sweet #my mom was watching a documentary on some fast fashion brand that was apparently really popular but id never heard of #and i was like “i could never wear that #im too nerdy and not white girl enough“ and that got me thinking

PSA FOR MAKE-UP AND SKINCARE BRANDS: START LISTING POTENTIAL ALLERGENS AT THE END IN BOLD LIKE FOOD PRODUCTS HAVE TO BECAUSE IT IS WAY OVERDUE AS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT AND I AM TIRED.

#this is a vent #sorry everyone #but I’m so tired #some brands do! but it’s so uncommon #genuinely baffles me though that it’s not common for skincare brands to do this #since it’s not unusual for those with irritated skin to have all sorts of allergies #and yes you can’t list every allergy under the sun #but I’m talking specifically about nut allergies here since nuts are a SUPER popular ingredient #in all beauty and hygiene products #for their h y d r a t i o n #and I’m allergic to Every Kind 😀👍🏻 #also rip to everyone with plant-based allergies 😖 #anyway #vent #spoon tag #spoonie #make up #makeup #skincare #allergies #allergens #nut allergy #food allergies #chronic condition

I don’t usually make posts like this, but I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-intellectual junk lately, and I really think we need to put the word “pretentious” up on a shelf until people learn what it actually means.

It doesn’t describe someone who likes artsy-fartsy deep meaning media. People who are pretentious are fake. They’re posers trying to be sophisticated and unique, not like other girls. They pretend to only like stuff they think will make them sound cool when they talk about it. They want to act like they know something you don’t, and they want attention for it.

By definition, if you genuinely enjoy something, you can’t be pretentious. If it resonates with you, and you analyze it, and you don’t care what people think, that’s the polar opposite, actually. If you love obscure experimental prog music, if you watch underground high concept indie films through English teacher eyes, if you spend hours in a modern art museum reading each piece as a vessel for storytelling, if your backpack’s full of poetry books that inspire you, if you play underrated games that were someone’s passion project, if you have an interest in studying the classics or the masters, you are not pretentious.

Of course, some people just don’t like some stuff, and that’s fine, but that’s not what this is about. Don’t let anti-intellectuals shame you for enjoying things just because your interests are inaccessible to them, because they refuse to be brave and put effort into critical thinking. You’re not stuck up for refusing to overlook the craft of artists.

#anti intellectualism #media #movies #books #music #critical thinking #my friend who primarily listens to one very popular band once said that people who listen to obscure music are annoying and pretentious #which rubbed me the wrong way because 1 she knows that I listen to obscure music and 2 it’s such a cowardly consumerist take. anyone can #make music and hey a lot of the people who do make GOOD music. and this goes for all *obscure* media #this post was mostly inspired by people talking about Barbie and those anti pick me girls like the pick nobody girls who insist thinking is #for boys and having fun with an empty brain is for girls. Greta gerwig is an artist. I haven’t seen the movie yet but I know it has a deeper #message than haha cute pink! I’ve seen the summaries about the true meaning. the pinkness and popularity doesn’t negate the narritive. #though in the notes I saw a lot of tumblristas comunistas shitting on the film for being one big ad that people *fell for* which tbh is #tbh almost as anti-intellectual. don’t get me wrong they milked this film to sell hella shit but I don’t believe kids who play with dolls #are the target audience as these people claim. Barbie is a culturally iconic symbol almost archetypical of societal expectations for women #you say barbie people think unblinking perfect plastic pink girly. reminds me of the poem The Last Mojave Indian Barbie. yeah yeah you all #hate brands but this one carries undeniable significance and makes for a powerful literary device. it’s been used many times before #sorry for writing a tag essay about a film I haven’t even seen but I’m tired of internet people focusing so much on proving others wrong #that they end up oversimplifying everything just as much as the other person. god I saw people doing this to Nimona saying transphobes were #looking too deep into her character and they’re reactionary clowns for making that jump. like for once the transphobes are right. she is #trans. it’s a queer story. and irl the first people who notice queerness are the bigots who can tell you’re different. sick owns telling #them the story’s not that deep is harmful and it’s like they’re ignoring the real message on purpose. okay enough rambling hehe! thanks #barbie #nimona

the cherry on top-

There is so much I want to say about this still but there's still stuff being analyzed and picked apart in the ULO community that I want to get as much of a full picture as I can before making a massive compiled theory post, so I'm kinda just posting my thoughts in very scattered parts for now. Obviously this is still all speculation that should be taken with mountains of salt but the evidence towards this being a load of baloney is damning as all hell.

And btw, I do think it's massively fucked up that Rachel is pulling this "Rachel Smythe Presents" shit that's literally word-for-word the same thing as Rick Riordan Presents, but she claims she's "never read PJO" and that LO isn't ripping it off.

The fucking audacity. With this in addition to the Lynn Buckham "study" (i.e. ripoff) it really begs the question of how much she's been ripping off and passing off as her own since the very beginning.

#please can we cancel her already #why the fuck would someone go to rachel smythe for literary representation when they could go to RICK FUCKING RIORDAN- #sorry sweety but it was WT giving you special treatment and the fact that you wrote an H x P romance when WT wasn't as oversaturated #if LO launched today it wouldn't be anywhere NEAR as popular #lore olympus critical #lo critical #anti lore olympus #antiloreolympus #it's also really clear she's trying to ditch LO entirely and just make 'herself' the brand #as if she's the sole reason LO was popular

Napapijri is an Italian clothing brand that uses a "sort of" Finnish name and a Norwegian flag as a logo even though it has nothing to do with either country! The brand is inspired by adventurers and "defying labels, transcending boxes, pursuing the unexpected journey into nature and creativity" as they put it.

I had never heard of this brand before I lived in Scotland, and I saw so many people wearing it there! Seemed super popular! Always so confusing because I automatically assumed they were Norwegians, but no. Just Scots wearing Norwegian flags ✨ so sweet of them 🥰

#hetalia #aph norway #aph italy #aph finland #aph scotland #hws norway #hws finland #hws italy #hws scotland #scotnor #idk how popular this brand is in other countries #when people wear a flag I assume they are from that country #brands should stop confusing me #at least use your own flag!
