Pride month is closing out in a week, so here’s a pride fact I learned recently:

George Michael, most notably known for his contributions to the creation of the the song Careless Whisper, is gay and was an active LGBTQ rights campaigner and HIV/AIDS fundraiser.

He did die of Heart Disease in 2016, but let’s all remember that George Michael was gay, especially considering how for the longest time I thought Carless Whisper was only about Straight love but takes on a whole lot of closeted gay undertones with this new bit of context.

the absolute lack of media literacy from people who haven’t even seen oppenheimer is making my head spin but whatever

#like - every three seconds it’s someone talking about how it’s us military prop or it doesn’t cover the atrocities well etc etc #when a) it is so definitely NOT us propoganda- it is so clearly critiquing the us military and oppenheimer himself #and b) it doesn’t cover every small detail of the impacts of the bomb bc that’s not what the film is about #it is a screenplay adapted from a biography on oppenheimer #it is about him - a biopic - and how he got to the point of making atomic weapons and ends on a note of undeniable horror #it is a movie that constantly bombards you with anxiety bc you have the burden of knowing the future #it is not in any way forgiving anything - it acknowledges the fucked up nature of the situation #hell it’s mostly a courtroom drama that shows how fucked up mccarthyism was #i’m a big history buff - so this plays a lot into it #but y’all have GOT to just stop seeinf things on a surface level and engage with media w/ a deeper mindset of just ‘thing bad’ #anyway - sorry it bothers me a lot #there are genuine criticims that can be leveled at both nolan and this film and i have seen them #im not sitting here calling the end all be all of cinema - but it’s a well made movie w/ something interesting to say and evaluate #not wanting to see it is one thing - by all means - but wringing it through the mud w/ absolutely no knowledge of the actual content of - #the film itself is actively annoying #media literacy #oppenheimer #mini rant

I have no clue what Japan's school curriculum is or if/when they would ever bring up fractals in a course.

But I keep thinking about Yoshiki opening his textbook and it's just a jumpscare for him, since 'Hikaru's' insides are represented as such.

(Sits Yoshiki in front of a Mandelbrot zoom sequence to see what happens)

#the summer hikaru died #hikaru ga shinda natsu spoilers #I'm just rambling #Who knows if he'll even live that long... #Anyways fractals are cool and everywhere in nature. #I think the one that's in the manga is a Julia from a Mandelbrot fractal #I only have surface level knowledge of Fractals. I am not good at math that involves imaginary numbers. #Sorry to my Sky followers for posting about this horror manga…

[boozye]

I feel like a whole idiot jfc, just now realizing.

[anxiously-sidequesting]

so another thing about malorn and malistaire being parallels i just thought about. does anyone who knows a lot about malistaire know if it was addressed how he treated his students during the course of Malistaire's decline? like, im under the impression that this was a gradual change and that malistaire still more or less kept his job as a professor before he destroyed the death school, did his relationships with his students change at all? im asking this because i know Zero things about malistaire (im booed off the stage) and if im right about my hunch on how malistaire's reputation as a teacher was affected then i can clearly see how malorn's would play out if he was going down the same path. im genuinely asking here, Malistaire Enthusiasts, assemble like the Avengers and help me out with this one

#i gotta stop speaking malistaire's name when my knowledge of him is outdated and surface level JELEJWOAJ #why am i analyzing him if i know nothing about him. thats kinda goofy #but yeah expanding on evil malorn i kinda feel like maybe he would keep just a snidge of his personality? #like even though his morals have changed a bit. that complicated “split” part of him is still there. #he feels one way but believes another. he genuinely cares for his atudents while he believes he and others are beyond redemption #hence the 'split' part. on instinct he checks on his students when he shows up to work but is still paranoid about their intentions #(whether or not they'll turn on him like duncan and ambrose is what i mean) #in contrats to malistaire who SEEMS like h just loses himself in his insanity. malorn just falls deeper into the issues he already had #why am i saying 'contrast' in a parallel situation. do i even know what im talking about????? #wizard101 #wiz101 #w101 #text posts #malorn ashthorn #malistaire drake

[rtnortherly]

what if i said to you: Charybdis but in space?

#having thoughts about mythology of gods and entities that existed when we didn't conceive of outer space the way we do know #and charybdis and scylla have always been a favourite of mine #and like #couldn't they be a black hole and idk some other space phenomena #i know nothing about outer space #but i can't be the only one who has thought of this right #like there's definitely a black hole named after charybdis right? #space people tell me the things #greek mythology #space #also charybdis makes me think of the one florence + the machine song hunger #but that may just be very surface level word association bc i've not actually investigated the notion #been thinking about the concept of hunger so much for how it translates to yearning/ambition/greed/desperation/curiosity/wanting #I love a character and a plot line which is just a bottomless pit seeking life/knowledge/connection/recognition #esp if it balances on the edge of fierce love and or destructive #like #mmm #delicious #it feels human to be hungry for the whole world #but our appetites become monstrous in the eyes of puritanical beliefs #or whatever #so many thoughts y'all i can't be stopped #ramblings

[psalmsofpsychosis]

me in this corner on my knees like fellas, i'm literally begging you, please interpret things, dont just fucking swallow stories and essays and media and all kinds of fucking information without giving it two tiny winy thoughts

#ngl i'm lowkey feeling homicidal about being surrounded by people who just percieve life and go ''okay.'' #not a single fucking thought in the 1000km radius of them #and i'm not talking about forming opinions #god knows you bastards are obsessively addicted to forming opinions without half as much the information you need #in order to form actual coherent and worthwhile opinions #i'm talking about trying to understand things. going beyond the surface level aesthetics and the ohhs and the ahhs #fucking christ. every other disco hoarse i see in here is so performative and surface level and superficial it's insane #people be sounding like three baby parrots re-enacting Shakespeare's Hamlet #except that baby parrots are cute and y'all dont even have the virtue of being fun. you're just a bunch of terrible actors #performing what thoughtfulness and introspection and self-awareness looks like. not what it actually means to possess those qualities #it's all the fucking aesthetics. the hows and whats and whens; never the whys. #for the love of gods; try to understand things for once. why they happen; what drives them; how they unfold from the roots up #INTERPRET THINGS. MAKE INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE YOUR OWN. #consumer culture is a fucking disease and y'all think it only comes in the flavour of you want to buy cute mugs

[watering-plastic-plants]

genuinely confused at how my dad decided to get a degree in a scientific field

#i think it might have been a legacy thing from his granpa cause how else #that man hates everything that is related to science he hates learning he hates being wrong #it seems like he got all knowledge before age 18 and just stuck with it what he forgot he forgot it no longer exists #today it was earthquake denier basically his opinion is that over here there was 1755 and nothing else #just loud and dumb and wrong #i do Not get it. like i love science!! the whole fun of it is learning new things! especially at this surface level #where you can just get a bunch of knowledge about a bunch of different shit and broaden your library of fun facts and trivia #but he genuinely hates learning. idk if it hurts his ego to realize he is a lot dumber in a lot of different topics than a lot of ppl #like sir you who last studied earthquakes in 5th grade and never again do not know more than a doctor of sismology you just dont!! #like its not even close!!! that should be a good thing to realize! that people just go ham on their niche interests and end up #arming humanity with digestable knowledge!! thats so fucking cool! how could you possibly like science and not like that people know more #than you and are willing to teach and to share!! #anyway yea love science hate my dad the usual <3 #rambles

[vurren]

i wish there was hebrew school for adults :( i'd do anything to have gotten a jewish education and live a jewish childhood, even if i'd decided later on that i didn't believe in god

#vurr.txt #i just. i feel like such a fake jew all the time!! #i dont have the knowledge or the community or the history #my family does! but i dont :( #and with my brainfog its incredibly hard to like. remember anything i learn about judaism #sucks! #there has to be a term for this right #like how transracial (THE NON RADQUEER ONE) refers to people raised outside their culture #what would it be called when ur mom became an atheist and was disowned by the jewish side of her family #so you only got basically a surface-level understanding of hanukkah and nothing else #despite mom going to hebrew school i know more about christianity than i do about judaism! and it SUCKS

[wewontbesleeping]

LMAO this morning when i got into work my coworker was like “hey are you a gaylor?” out of NOWHERE and I had to be like…. Where did you learn that word???

#and then my other coworker started talking about how a lot of people think she’s homophobic bc of picture to burn #and THEN they started talking about tumblr … and I was like OKAY I’M GOING TO BE QUIET ABOUT THIS…… #this guy really was like omg you guys… I used to FOLLOW her ON TUMBLR years ago. #like. someone sedate me rn…. #I can’t take it !!! #it’s so hard to talk about subjects that I know VERY WELL with people with a surface level knowledge #bc I don’t want to be a know it all and be like WELL ACTUALLY…. #so I’m just like. well. we’re all allowed to have opinions about Taylor Swift I guess #I Suppose….

[incomingalbatross]

Having now read King Lear, I may be going slightly out of my mind over the fact that, when the Librarians trio are pulling out Meaningful Shakespeare Quotes in the S2 finale, Jacob Stone chose to use a quote from the play that is ENTIRELY ABOUT false appearances and the duties of father-child relationships??

"I can keep honest counsel, ride, run, mar a curious tale in telling it, and deliver a plain message bluntly. That which ordinary men are fit for, I am qualified in; and the best of me is diligence."

And THEN he has the AUDACITY to say his quote is "about knowing yourself." Like... technically yes, but also no?? You're quoting a character in disguise, introducing his false self to the king who exiled him for speaking the truth, and who he disguised himself for and is now actively deceiving so that he can continue serving him, but SURE. "Knowing yourself." THAT'S all that's going on here.

#a distraction of librarians #of ALL THE PLAYS #...and furthermore! #it's actually very likely that ezekiel and cassandra pulled their quotes without context from a book of shakespeare quotations #that jenkins threw at them with 'just pick something you relate to that can also be tied to the current situation' #jenkins might even have picked their quotes FOR them if they asked #but jacob? you know jacob is COMPREHENSIVELY aware of the context of any shakespeare passage he might quote #he knew what he was doing. even if i'm not sure *i* know #and he passed it off with a surface-level 'it's about self-knowledge' reading #TRUE in that he probably was thinking about how it fit into his own self-understanding but also... yeah #lying liar who lies (affectionate)

[troonwolf]

we wrote the post about why “healthy plurality” is an ableist cult but I’m waiting for more of you to get online so you can all Understand

#I feel like even people who already know the surface level of how bad they are #don't understand JUST HOW BAD they are #becaue they haven't been within the community #but I have bitches and it was a fucking terrifying disaster #and now I will regale you all with the knowledge I have acquired #like there is a reason I am so staunch about this #it's because I saw this shit myself #I don't judge anything until I have a full understanding of it and that's what I did with these people #give them the benefit of the doubt don't judge them etc #cool that's fine if you're dealing with normal people but not when you're dealing with cultists and their groupthink

[donuts4evry1]

So when I said that you influenced my subconscious mind, I was referring to my habit of talking in my sleep.

I talk in my sleep A Lot. Like, a lot a lot. I can have conversations in my sleep. Usually my sleep talk takes the form of sweet talking my wife. Well the other night, I was doing that as usual. Dead asleep, telling my wife that I love her and she's pretty, things like that. When mixed in with the normal compliments, I start comparing her to Irukandji. As a compliment. She doesn't know what that is, so she asks me. Still completely asleep mind you, I stop sleep-complimenting her to rattle off every fact I know about Irukandji, then explain that my reasoning for the comparison was that I think they are very cute, and she deserves to be able to kill many people.

I

I HAVE NO WORDS FOR THIS THIS ENTIRE EXCHANGE IS JUST AMAZING

#jellyfish #for the love of god anyone who follows this tag needs to see this *now* #ask #mun rambles #IRUKANDJI JELLYFISH #IRUKANJI JELLYFISH PROPAGANDA OMG #I don't really have any extra facts to say about them (my knowledge only goes surface level) howeverrr... #idk why jellyfish stinging on the bells is such a big deal tbh exumbrellular nematocyst warts aren't unheard of in the jellyfish kingdom #like. plenty of jellyfish (non-box and box jelly alike) have them #they are so tiny and small and cute (1 cm on average) and I just want to pet them and call them cute names and feed them microplankton <3 #so glad you know about irukandji jellyfish *wipes tear* im so proud

[unproduciblesmackdown]

the way that randos seem to have learned a tiny bit more about autistic people and are using this newfound power to give their ableism more range, like [inspiring: this gender-respecting bully will only give victims swirlies in bathroom that aligns with their identity] and [guy who researches your identity so that his microaggressions are more accurate] like oh radical that now you're throwing around the word "autistic" more comfortably as meaning shit like someone's "clueless" or "has an interest or perhaps talent" or what nonsense will follow when someone's breaking out the term "social skills" like oh nice, people accessing all the abilities of Autism Parents without having to be a parent

#nothing inherently brand new and just kind of a side effect of ppl learning Anything more abt autistic ppl like being Real & Out Here #which doesn't make that exposure Bad; b/c of course [exposure; proximity] or even Learning Anything At All doesn't make ppl like #have to do anything but just fit that into their preexisting framework; i.e. ableism #just like the examples of ''oh don't worry you can recognize trans identities while Keeping The Bullying'' #keep the ableist perspective and just update your idea of what autistic ppl are like At All #also it's ofc just like. wild lol like; it keeps being disparaging / Othering #and i'm sure ppl think they're being just neutral or w/e but even if they out & out Mean Well....like good for you personally idc??? what?? #if i was watching some shit and someone was like Would They Be That Autistic [as to do that]? like excuse you....? #like i'm not Baffled like. it's just ppl keeping the depths of ableism & adding some surface level knowledge that autistic ppl are real #and just adding ''autistic'' to their lexicon in a supposedly more technical sense....keeping the spirit of things though; ultimately #and of course the matter of like you don't fix marginalization by making ''exceptions'' to the systems/approaches/perspectives.... #like oh well i'd so heroically exercise restraint about considering people Existing Wrong lesser if i knew they were Autistic(tm) #like you don't need to Know to ''make exceptions'' and you need to change the entire approach/situation already thanks #like ppl being nonbinary & others figuring out ways to just try to tack this onto cisnormativity &; indeed; the gender binary #we didn't need an ''equivalent'' to gendered nouns; why is a blog in 2023 opening some random post w/''ladies & gentlemen & others''.... #someone's tweet the other day abt cis acquaintances being ''considerate'' emailing like ''should we call it a sex reveal party?'' like. #i'm going to need you to realize the fundamental heart of the issues here. incl ableism. and i realize you think that's Too Much.
