what

everytime I see art of chubby grace, grace being alright and supported being aroace, or grace breaking gender norms by wearing skirts or jewelry, something inside of me heals

the phrase "this machine kills fascists" has gone through enough layers of meaning that I think it's come all the way back around to where the funniest thing you could put it on would be a gun

Tchaikovsky at the cannon store:

not to be That Guy but i think the 1812 overture is stretching the limits of "folk music" a little bit

the 1812 Overture uses themes from Russian folk music, primarily a song called U Vorot, Vorot, to represent the Russian army

...yeah that makes sense. i would stand corrected if i wasn't sitting down

tbh I kind of assumed people would be more likely to question my assertion that there's such a place as a cannon store

Of course not there's a cannon store in Gorbachev

it's spelled Goncharov

it really is quite bad for your military to have an image of itself as a warrior class. what you really want is for your soldiers to think of themselves as boring professionals who will fill out a report form if someone gets a little too warrior ethos out there

and if i said nolan's odyssey starring no greek actors and with no recognizable aspects of greek culture or involvement by greeks, is the direct legacy of white supremacist colonialism that treated ancient greece as not just the pinnacle of ancient culture, but of an artificially created "european" culture, which white western europeans and their settler descendants, as the new pinnacle of culture, were the sole spiritual inheritors of.

to add to this: there’s also cases where a lot of people ARE legitimately abandoned by their previous support groups even when they do reach out and ask for help. or passively ignored when they’re obviously struggling. nevertheless, this does not make the bitterness and scorn good

do you ever watch a movie and it’s like. I’m too aro for this

it really pisses me off when adults sit there and drill it into kids’ heads that their youth is fleeting and tell them things like “enjoy your childhood while it lasts because this is the best it’s gonna get”. why are you telling children that adulthood is the worst thing they can experience? seriously what the fuck is wrong with you, why are you trying to make them feel like growing up is a fate worse than death? trying to convince them their life is over before it even begins? i’m tired of that shit. because tell my why my 12 year old cousin told me when she turns 30 she’ll be so depressed she’s just gonna cry all the time. what the fuck. kids don’t need to hear that their already stressful and overwhelming lives are never going to get better, that the abuse and lack of autonomy they face is apparently the highlight of their lives. they need to hear about adults who are happy to be alive and happy to have made it to their age. they need to know that growing up rules, it’s a gift and life does not have to suck for them, that they have a future that’s worth sticking around for. this rhetoric is so damaging mentally and i’m about to start hitting the adults who parrot it. i’m sorry you hate your life but you don’t get to dump your issues on these kids. don’t piss me off and leave these babies alone!

This.
