Straight white men community VICIOUSLY assaulted by 1 entire movie not catering to them. Yeah it's the Barbie movie what's your point.

#It's funny how women can spend their entire educational careers reading work after work that insults their entire gender #watch basically 99% of movies side-line them. can't go through one day without hearing some misogynistic song on the radio #meanwhile white men can be broken by not enough representation in the barbie movie lmao #(especially since the barbie movie isn't even cruel or mean. it is a lot kinder than what it is satirising) #headlines

Buddy Dawn was truly such a little guy to me. I felt the same way about him as I did about freshman year Kristen lol like you're just a gay kid from a stifling religious upbringing. You tried to get the Rat Grinders to join your prayer chain huh.

#guys like him irl are obviously annoying but I think also the fact that its brennan deliberately satirising those guys made him charming #he deserved his character development moment #say what you will aboyt Helio but whatever happened with Lucy and Ankarna Buddy was literally completely innocent #bro wasn't even here. hes probably gone to private helioc schools his whole life and this was his first taste of the outside world #he could've been like Kristen. but they KILLED HIMM #d20 #fhjy #fhjy spoilers #fantasy high #fantasy high junior year #buddy dawn #dimension 20

hi i love seeing you talk about your field as another autistic person who gets these kinds of people trying to 1-up. keep up the good work on what you do. how do so many people think antarctica means no bears

there's a popular tumblr post that claims antarctica means no bears. they definitely got the idea from that

#it's literally one of the posts I'm satirising in my post lol

♪ hiii

HIII RAINE!! "Skinning the children for a war drum, putting food on the table selling bombs and guns, it's quicker and easier to eat your young" from eat your young by Hozier. It's suchhh a good lyric this song is so interesting and cool

#the chorus was based off this essay written by an irish guy during the potato famine called a modest proposal #it was satirising the english government and their response to the famine cause theyd been doing jack shit to help #and pretty much just demanding the same amount of food as usual be imported despite people already not having enough to eat #and so his modest proposal is mocking them being like hey if you dont have food or money try selling your children to be eaten #or even eat them yourselves if theyre not good enough to be sold! #its super interesting im a huge nerd about this lol #anyway thanks for the ask!! #raine tag #asks #ask game

i love it when succession references something that pretty much everyone knows and then i go look at succession reddit and theyre like guys omg TIL that new york is an actual place and they didnt just make it up for the show!

#um.txt #nazism / #learning new things isnt embarrassing etc. but jesus the comments are so stupid #someone said no guys youre missing the real genius of the line. its obviously about misogyny but he also said it in GERMAN #like yes its a german phrase. from germany. that is the point #its literally so on the nose it almost made me roll my eyes... #succession #turning off reblogs because terfs are rbing it omfg die... youre in bed with the kind of people this guy is satirising LOL

why should it just be steve who has all the torturous purgatory realm fun?

#dbd #myart #wip #quick clarification for those only familiar with the american version of ringu: sadako is 19. #anyway. I love that dbd lets me explore steve and nancy's characters outside the bullshit that the show is. #because the whole steve and nancy dynamic is Interesting. but the dustbags are plagued by cerebral hetrot so that story never GOES anywhere #it's just the “Waaaah love triangle OMG!!! will they? won't they?” crap. idk man. idc. why're these dumbasses breathing in Upside down air? #some people here have seen lucy before-- he is the ghostface pictured. and he's an OC. different person entirely from danny. #I won't explain his full lore here but-- he was a drag queen before the fog who started out by only killing those who he felt deserved it. #his entire persona satirises catholicism and he calls himself “the holy ghost” rather than ghostface. the entity made him an actual devil. #he's obsessed with steve because he LIVES his own role so he sees steve as his heroic opposite or some fucked up gay shit like that. #he's clutching kate's heart because if he were a real character in the game-- he'd have two moris. #one standard... and one for if a steve is present in the lobby. the second would involve him carving out the heart of a survivor as a gift. #he never harms steve though-- so it makes steve's penchant for self-sacrifice pointless. #steve instead has to do what he can to open the gates as fast as possible-- or watch everyone else die! :) #as for the toxic yuri-- it occurred to me that sadako's backstory bears some striking similarities to barb's story. #as soon as I realised this-- it was like I had suddenly gained the ability to see a new colour I could not see before. #sadako wanting to torment nancy as sick revenge for what happened to her but using barb's death as justification for this... #...nancy being unable to escape the ghost of barb... even in this hell dimension full of terrifying monsters-- #it is still the memory of the girl she feels she “let” die in steve's pool that scares and hurts her the most. #not to mention that sadako's powers are reminiscent of how the upside down related fuckery appears... #the screwy technology. the telekinesis. #I just REALLY love seeing characters be forced to confront difficult parts of themselves even if that shit REALLY hurts. #dbd makes it so easy to do that to any given character. of course this goes both ways too-- it'd force lucy & sadako to change too. #which opens the door for torment on their end too because killers who disobey the entity are tortured into obeying. #a rock and a hard place on both ends. and that is Exactly how I like it. intense. complicated-- a puzzle to be solved.

I regularly shit on English as a subject but being on the internet makes me realise how desperately those classes were needed

#maybe it’s a fandom thing but you either get the most beautiful nuance filled analysises on the planet or people with no media literacy #when it comes to the Internet #on one hand it’s a skill that can be learned but is usually only learned in a scenario where learning isn’t really the main goal (school) #but on the other hand there’s points where I’m like ‘oh god media literacy is dead’ #I will forever remember the time my yr 8 English teacher showed us an article from the onion (I think) about ‘gorilla attacks’ #and basically the article was satirising anti-gun control arguments in America #but my teacher said that one time when she showed the article to the class a kid said 100% earnestly #‘guys these gorilla attacks sound pretty bad we shouldn’t joke about this’ #hell I had to point out what ‘gorilla’ actually meant within the context of the article to multiple of my friends #made me understand just how many people don’t really seek to look into the deeper meaning behind things and ngl I don’t fully blame them #lark rambles #queue’d

Reading Bleak House by Charles Dickens for my book club (we're not talking about it until October but it is a chonker so I'm reading a chapter here and there while I read other books as well). While it can be a little difficult to parse at times, at others, the humour and the satire and the incisive character portraits really come through. I've not read much Dickens, only A Christmas Carol which I love, but that's pretty short where most of Dickens' work is intimidatingly long. But I'm definitely enjoying it so far, this quote in particular in Chapter 7 struck me as very Pratchett-esque in its humour:

'It appears to the afflicted Mr Guppy and his inconsolable friend that there is no end to the Dedlocks, whose family greatness seems to consist in their never having done anything to distinguish themselves, for seven hundred years.'

#charles dickens #dickens #bleak house #terry pratchett #pterry #satire #(obviously I realise it's the other way round and Pratchett must definitely have been influenced by Dickens) #but yeah even tho I've read Christmas Carol and was kind of aware that Dickens satirises like Victorian London #I don't think I quite grasped how hard he goes on the satire and biting social commentary #or at least I assumed that maybe I wouldn't get it? #and I'm sure some things I don't get but a lot I do and I'm enjoying it very much

with all due respect it is always going to feel a bit alien to me that some people watch the thick of it and a) are more interested in adam and fergus and/or b) have no freak interest in the real political context of it like i do. those kids have no idea whatsoever of what went on at the leveson inquiry

#they don’t even know about the grid #sorry adam and fergus even between two bodies you couldn’t make one malcolm. or one ollie <- dares to say this is purposeful #and ​well it’s a satire. i think it’s at its sharpest and most interesting when you’re familiar with what it set out to satirise

[sewi-li-suwi]

#poll #sewi's stuff #sewi's polls #yes this is poking fun at other pronounciation polls #this is 100% gonna come back to bite me #something about how it has to have purpose and be clearly NOT the thing it's satirising #i forgot the moral of that #also should out to GA folks who will real all of these the same lol #(with the exception of lohw and lorl)
