Oh the seas we never saw @paintedpoems - Tumblr Blog

It is almost as if the world is telling us a morbid joke: we will kill you if you resist and kill you if you hide, and if you refuse, and if you concede, and we will devour your land and gulp your oceans and kill you with hunger and thirst. The massacres will be televised, broadcast in broad daylight. Our judges will legalize them. Our politicians, inert, inept, or complicit, will fund them then feign sympathy, if any. Our academics will stand idle—that is, until the dust settles, then they will write books about what should have been. Their rotten institutions will commemorate us after our death. And the vultures, even from our midst, will tour museums glorifying, romanticizing what they once condemned, what they did not deign to defend—our resistance—mystifying it, depoliticizing it, commercializing it. The vultures will make sculptures out of our flesh. A morbid joke, but I am not amused.

“I do not say your name; yet you are within me like music in the throat of the nightingale even when it is not singing.”

— Dulce María Loynaz, from “LVII,” A Woman in Her Garden (White Pine Press, 2002)

“My story has so much gay rep in it!” Awesome. How are you treating your female characters btw

kingdeath000

This post blowing up has taught me that a lot of you think that “how are you treating the character” is asking about how they’re treated within the story, not how you, the author, is writing them. I don’t care if your female characters are goddesses or superheroes, do they talk like actual people and not a cardboard cutout with tits stapled on

discoursedrome

they're always bringing experts or activists on the news to agitate about porn and there's a standard script for this that's like "I think sex education is important, I'm not anti-sex, but so much of this porn is violent and misogynistic if not outright illegal, and it's far too accessible to our children"

I want to see someone finally be brave enough to say that the government should just make its own porn for teenagers that accords with community values, so they don't have to go to these shady places to get it. I think the government porn would probably be pretty bad but I would be so eager to hear about the process of designing it. there would be so many stakeholders and consultations. in canada it would have to be bilingual

#i.... i cant read the tone of this post but i hope it is a serious one

PIER PAOLO PASOLINI I WORK ALL DAY. . .

I work all day like a monk and at night wander about like an alley cat looking for love. . . I'll propose to the Church that I be made a saint. In fact I respond to mystification with mildness. I watch the lynch mob as through a camera-eye. With the calm courage of a scientist, I watch myself being massacred. I seem to feel hate and yet I write verses full of painstaking love. I study treachery as a fatal phenomenon, almost as if I were not its object. I pity the young fascists, and the old ones, whom I consider forms of the most horrible evil, I oppose only with the violence of reason. Passive as a bird that sees all, in flight, and carries in its heart, rising in the sky, an unforgiving conscience.

#beautiful as always

“Oppression is particularly pleasant for those who make their profession from conceiving its rationality, who in no way have to experience it in their bodies, but who, their windows firmly closed to the cries of torture and revolt, decipher the rose of reason in the cross of tortured bodies. Everywhere below that there is oppression, there is resistance.”

— Jacques Rancière, The Intellectual and His People (2012)

after a 100 years, I feel sane enough to do another opinion piece... it's in draft phase rn but hopefully I can muster up something good~

#and possibly controversial #the side effect of having finally having a job that pays to well enough to live is the numbness that takes over when you have time to rest.#so i have not been drawing... nor writing.... but I read a few pages of a book today and that is victory enough

Reminder that all of the TGCF donghua openings and endings & 'one flower one sword' are on spotify! Don't forget to give them some love so the production team knows there is an audience (i mean, besides actually watching it on crunchy or bili)

If you dont know where to find them, its the top 5 songs in this playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1GTi4VkLfBRELNM2yi7YEJ?si=7724ef8cc6b748b0

#I couldn’t find an official playlist im sure its exists...but take it and put it in your personal playlist... help a girl get her season 3 #tgcf donghua #tgcf #heaven official's blessing #tian guan ci fu

Ok so the thing about reading like books which are “predictable” is that I, a story enjoyer, go completely bonkers about it bc its like Enrichment in my Enclosure. A scene parallels another earlier scene between different characters thus serving to highlight the differences in their views and priorities???? A line makes me think “hmmm I bet that’s gonna be relevant later” ends up being relevant later????? I am a tiger chewing ice cubes out of a pumpkin. I’m so so happy. Please foreshadow more things. Throw the completely anticipateable plot beats at me like catnip mousies!!!!!

Let me tell you about my days

I bought curtains that were too short for my window frame, the hem let the ankles peek. There are not graceful, or functional but I kept them. They let light(ness) seep in when I wanted to be engulfed in darkness. But, I kept them.

It was more of a hassle do to yet another task... I knew I couldn’t bring myself to do it anyway. So, I kept the faulty curtains.

Their main function was to block the moonlight when I slept and the sunlight so that I would not awake. An additional layer added to my shield, my shell. I wanted them to hold me like a parenthesis.

Like the walls in my room held me. They protected me from the gaze of those outside the borders... boundaries of my room. They protect me, they trap me. My mind it tries to take detours, but the way is blocked.

These days, I just sit and stare at these boundaries. They keep me safe, they keep me lonely. I stare at my faux wood desk, at my painted nails, at the lines and lines of books stacked, untouched.... I am afraid of them, they are portals... outside of these borders.

These days, I feel even more trapped than I have been in a long time, I try to leave but these walls are detours. Trapped in the land of freedom, caged here. Protected here, safe here.

Daisies of day and night.

Eighty percent in the shadows, twenty percent in the light. The curtains were too short.

#I am back briefly to be emo...#its not anything beautiful but we love trauma response freeze mode.... I have been stuck like this so far for 6 months...and counting #writings #took everything out of me to even type this much :(
