Honestly, as much as a love the Gilded Age and glitz glamor of the wealth it shows...what has really caught my attention is the plotline unions and mills

I am once again starting my campaign for Hollywood to create a mini series based on the Progressive era

And I want it as dark, gritty, a realistic as possible.

#my life-long obsession has been the progressive era #so many good things occurred but so many people and populations were left out of the conversation/legal changes #I truly think the progressive era was top 5 most important times in American social and legal history #probs only next to the Civil War and the Great Depression #Civil Rights movement and the 1970s movements which were inspired by the civil rights moment #HBO honestly would be able to do this imo #they did a great job with this and with John Adams #I'd love to see it set in the Midwest #like in Detroit or Chicago #the gilded age #historical drama #historical drama tv #hbo #the progressive era #not hetalia #american history #pro union

btw pro tips for wearing skirts as short as you want and still never getting catcalled in the city

- gigantic shoes that make a lot of noise

- shirts with gory horror movie imagery on them

- angryish/flat resting face + heavy dark makeup

you MAY still get stealthily checked out from afar but almost guaranteed no one will talk to you. in fact sometimes people will see you and start walking in the opposite direction

#i got catcalled exactly once in three days in chicago and it’s like.#if you’re dressed scary enough you can just stare at them and they’ll get all squirmy. especially if they’re like guys in their 20’s/30’s #i NEVER get catcalled in detroit literally never. i can think of one time i did in my entire life #one time in ann arbor someone crossed the street to avoid me

Are Eminem and Psy the only artists who've used Ope in a song?

#midwest #let me scoot right pastcha #detroit is in the midwest but I thought it was sheltered from the Ope like chicago is #or am I thinking of oofda

I have the opportunity to spend a month in Michigan this autumn and that should be an easy decision (go! especially before I have more responsibilities) but it’s not

#I mean. the person I'm dating rn is from there and a big thing is us deciding that we want to try to make this work #and given that we're both very sad at the thought of things changing from how they are now we do want to try #but god Michigan is so far away #and in a car dependent country. and I can't drive. and do not want to be dependent on them or their family #but also this is quite the opportunity.. I'd get to see Detroit and Ann Arbor and Chicago and Toronto.. lakes...#it's a whole other continent that I've never been to like of course that would be exciting #but deciding to go feels so. definite. it's a real commitment to this relationship #a relationship which is making me happy but yeah. of course I still miss my ex we were together for more than half a decade #and I'm still just pained by him never working on himself because things could've been okay I think #hmmmm anyway. much to think about.

people are always surprised when i say i don't mind the rainy season in seattle for like some quite valid reasons but i cannot overstate how much the ecological experience of the pnw is sooooo good for my mental health. it doesn't get very cold, there's always a green plant around, and most of the time i can see the mountains and when i can't i have the water!! do you know how easy it is to feel better in the face of natural beauty?

#the only reason i don't like the rainy season is that being wet is a top 3 worst sensory experience to me #also there are many many things i miss about the midwest i think but unfortunately it is just unlivable for me #dark at 3 or 4pm. freezing cold all the fucking time. very very boring landscape. humidity #do not @ me i know there's natural beauty in the midwest but it is MUCH harder to find #and it's hard to appreciate lake michigan when you can't ever look at it bc you don't want to be outside #i do very much miss the architecture in chicago and detroit tho #the seattle skyline is not beautiful bc of the buildings that's for sure #i miss livejournal must be a day that ends in y

Honestly, it's been on my mind for a bit so I'll babble:

I think there is something absolutely magical about hometown crowds. Like we talk about mundane magic a lot, but we don't really talk about the electrifying feel of hometown crowds. People who believe so wholeheartedly in their team that it's almost like they can force their team to win by sheer force of will and belief.

For example, even if I don't necessarily like my hometown team, I love the city. I love the way people cheer for the in between period activities. I love the way people cheer during the lookalike cams. Like they both love and hate their own so wholeheartedly. It's beautiful. People who come to games, especially hometown games, typically come to games because they love their team and it's beautiful how you can feel it and see it all the same. Like they really come together during these games.

#tagging all the original six teams bc I feel like this fits them especially/gen/pos #montreal canadiens #toronto maple leafs #boston bruins #chicago blackhawks #new york rangers #detroit red wings #hockey #nhl

....

of course junko enoshima is a stage name, enoshima is a literal island

#musings #bandit liveblogs #bandit liveblogs danganronpa #that's like if i called myself bandit detroit #or bandit chicago #or bandit cleveland #which like maybe those are also names people have!#but like #the additional fact that people would probably call her enoshima more than junko #they're just always calling her by the island's name #or they use her full stage name #and that hope's peak enrolled her under her stage name #'why are your last names different'#BECAUSE IT'S A STAGE NAME #of course she would get sick of the question #(i mean otonashi is also different from ikusaba so like #she'd still be sick of the question anyway)#but just #further proof of ryoko as the base

So, Kane got traded the red wings on Tuesday and Alex Debrincat’s been with the wings since the start of the season. On the screen, they showed some stats and had pictures of Debrincat, then Raymond, then Kane…yeah, it’s still weird seeing Kane in a red wings jersey. And then couple that with debrincat…let’s just say if you would’ve told me 6 months ago that 2 famous Chicago Blackhawks would be playing for the wings, I would’ve laughed in your face

#so weird going from hating Debrincat and Kane to having to like them #Debrincat’s good bc he’s from Detroit but I still have my reservations about Kane #hockey #nhl #detroit red wings #chicago blackhawks #alex debrincat #patrick kane
