This is such an abstract type of comedy I don’t even know how to handle it
Nolan's Odyssey plays with PTSD as a theme, but it neither glorifies nor condemns war as such. It's textually a movie about how war and fighting and killing have Rules, and if you break the Rules enough then not only will you as an individual be divinely punished but all of civilization will collapse. This is the rare take so ultra-centrist that it will appear to many viewers as cryptic and esoteric
I actually don't resent Nolan for making movies with assertively centrist politics. That's his right as an artist, and anyone vehemently asserting anything is automatically kind of interesting to me. But of course there's a void at the heart of centrism - a fundamental absence of real belief - which is why people run into so much trouble when they try and pick apart the politics of a Nolan film. There's nothing underneath, nothing there to "get to."
I was thinking about Disco Elysium's Moralism while trying to explain this post to someone, and of course about "Kingdom of Conscience", and it occurred to me (and I know this isn't an original thought) that centrists have a very hostile relationship to desire. It's not just beliefs and convictions that must be "put away immediately, and the child reprimanded," it's the wordless desires that lie under those beliefs and convictions. Desire is by definition unfulfilled: all desire is the desire for things to be different, which is the opposite of what centrists want.
What I'm saying here is that the lack of sex, and of sexiness, in Nolan movies (and Marvel movies and other contemporary blockbusters) has a direct connection to their political messaging. It's not solely American puritanism or risk-averse PG-13 corporate conservatism - although it is those - it's also this desire thing. These movies don't just lack sex, they lack eroticism in the broadest sense of the term. They lack frisson. Even when there is sex or nudity, there's still no eroticism!
These blockbuster protagonists generally don't want things, they don't need things, they don't crave things, they're obligated to things. That makes them less than human, not more than human (just compare and contrast with the gods in Greek mythology), and it makes the movies quite boring in my opinion!
My longhouse is perfectly constructed. Every morning when I wake up in bed at the far end of my longhouse, I say my syllable. Then I spend all day sitting in bed. By sunset my syllable has traveled to the other end of my longhouse and back, and as it smacks me in the head, I fall asleep. My longhouse is perfectly constructed.
The amount of slavery in Ancient Rome was legitimately terrifying tbh
Y’all know that I’m into ancient Roman history and I do a lot of research on it but even though I should be used to it by now sometimes I read an anecdote about how an individual slave was treated and I’m hit with the realization that like a third of the population was living like that and I just need to put my head in my hands for a second
Emperor Hadrian randomly stabbed a slave in the eye in a fit of rage and he was supposedly unusually sympathetic to slaves.
There’s other instances of people randomly punching slaves that they didn’t even know because they got in their way or something. This was just normal behavior.
And slaves didn’t rebel en masse because if even one slave committed an act of violent rebellion it was common practice to kill every slave and former slave in the household.
People only took notice for posterity when these mass executions got into the hundreds of people. One of the few recorded for the history books is of over 400 people being killed because one guy stabbed his enslaver.
Like how many people throughout history were beaten to death because some rich asshole was angry and there was no legal or social consequences for doing so? We don’t know.
When you study ancient history you’re reminded that slavery has never once been kind or justified. It just takes on different forms of evil in every time and place that it infects.

Struggling through half a dozen abortive posts to explain this so just the thesis: I think that an inability to imagine yourself adapting to and maybe even finding satisfaction in a wide array of living situations weakens your ability to make decisions about your life. I know so many people who have let potentially good things pass by even when they have a generous safety net because they are paralyzed by a fear of doing something that feels alien to them.
they’re getting married. btw.
oh…my god.
the problem with tumblr spells is all of you lil sluts are casting and not giving it time to charge so you're all casting cantrips and not 9th level death spells. everyone wants to be the one to take them down no one wants to be the one who assists
we're going to try again witha little but minimal casting
IT will happen in August of 2026. like to charge and reblog to cast but cast sparingly
Wait stop. everyone +like now and spread it a little but cast on the same day in August. lets try August 6th or something.
CAST NOW
something about Toy Story toys is so strange to me. versions of animated characters based on real world toys, turned back into toys that are slightly different than the actual toys. slinky dog with a rubber spiral instead of a classic metal slinky. the porcelain bo peep and cloth woody turned into jointed plastic action figures. when toy story 4 came out and i saw a $30 talking action figure of forky, a character made out of a spork and a pipe cleaner, i stood in the walmart toy aisle staring at it like cameron from ferris bueller's day off staring at that painting in the art museum

I think if I heard I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas in the correct circumstances it could move me to tears. It's like the promise of a brighter future that never came to pass
Still the best gaming fact.

I love Ronan’s arc in the first two books because at the start you think Ronan attempted suicide but then you find out that’s actually a cover story for the fact that he was attacked by a dream creature. And then you find out said creature is called Manifestationofmy Suicidalthoughts.
