as a fan of both, iâm coping
i didnât take refuge in ânot like other girlsâ thinking as a kid â i was too laser-focused on trying (and failing) to be normal â but i was mercilessly bullied for being different, a wrong kind of girl. and i know that sure, we all agree bullying is wrong. but i virtually never see that behavior identified as misogynist. i donât see popular internet posts asking women to examine why they mocked and shunned other girls in school for being the wrong kind of girl, and what that might say about how they view women. i very much doubt anyone has ever sat down one of my bullies and said of their bullying, âyour internalized misogyny is showing.â i had and have internalized misogyny too; we all do. i just want to see as much attention to the âyouâre not like usâ form as i see for the âiâm not like youâ form.
On The Floor
She still felt it, even if she is strong enough to not react. My heart goes out to her for having to endure it.
Iâm so tired of black women being congratulated on how much shit we can take before we snap

Azerbaijani painter writes Quran on transparent silk pages
Azerbaijani painter and decorative artist TĂźnzale Memmedzade has transcribed the Quran onto transparent silk pages. Memmedzade, a 33-year-old artist, used 50 meters of transparent black silk, and 1,500 milliliters of gold and silver inks in the project, which has taken three years to complete. (read more)Â

Thatâs it, thatâs his character

âWHAT TEAM?!â I shout out the window into the night.
Somewhere, hundreds of miles away, Zac Efron wakes from a restless sleep, sitting bolt upright âWILDCATSâ
Do you think Khajiit get the zoomies like normal cats do? do you think a khajiit will get up at like 2 am and their spouse is like âbabe everything ok?â and their just like âyeah this one just has to run like 4 miles right now.â
youâre just having a normal conversation with a khajiit and suddenly their pupils dialate as they enter the Silly Zone
Friendly reminder that Vincent van Gogh willingly checked himself into an asylum so that he could get better, resulting in him creating some of the most iconic paintings of his entire career, done in the asylum, when he was being treated 24/7, because he finally didnât have to struggle with his demons and could instead focus on his muse, WHICH WERE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS!
Remember this little insignificant painting?
How about this one?
Check this one out:
All of these and more were painted in the asylum when he was receiving treatment for his mental illnesses and I know I just said that but I said it again and Iâm saying it a third time until you dramatic abled assholes understand!
VINCENT VAN GOGH
- KNEW THAT HE WAS MENTALLY ILL
- WANTED TO CHANGE THAT
- WENT TO AN ASYLUM
- GOT THE HELP HE NEEDED
- PAINTED SOME ICONIC MASTERPIECES AS A RESULT!
SO DONâT YOU DARE COME OUT HERE WITH THIS, âI WISH I WAS DEPRESSED SO I COULD BE AS CREATIVE AS VAN GOGHâ BULLSHIT BECAUSE EVEN HE KNEW THAT HIS DEMONS WERE HARMING HIS WORK, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, HIS HEALTH, AND HE DID EVERYTHING WITHIN HIS POWER TO FIGHT THEM EVERY SINGLE DAY OF HIS LIFE, UNTIL THEY ENDED UP WINNING!Â
This is also incredibly important for any creative persons dealing with mental illness, and their parents.
Receiving mental help improves your craft, not hurt it. Before getting put on medication for the first time to treat my mental illnesses, my mom expressed to me how sheâs worried about my getting treatment because of my art. Regardless, your mental health should be more important anyway, but, honestly, itâs a lot harder to produce good art when you struggle getting out of bed, let alone creating masterpieces. When youâre in more health, improving your craft comes much easier!
Personally I think the most beautifull painting of him was this one:
He made it when he heard about the birth of his nephew who was named after him. Still in the asylum but really happy for his brother! âHow glad I was when the news came⌠I should have greatly preferred him to call the boy after Father, of whom I have been thinking so much these days, instead of after me; but seeing it has now been done, I started right away to make a picture for him, to hang in their bedroom, big branches of white almond blossom against a blue sky.â
Oh I have sucb rants about how âgoodâ art comes while suffering.
No.
look at me.
The idea of the âsuffering artistâ comes from bunch of alcholic, drug abusing, womanizers trying to justify their bad life choices as some sort of artistic angst.
IT IS 100% BULLSHIT
Take your meds, get your therapy, be happy, and live life
The art will be there.
Kill the myth that artists must suffer.

Tina Turner at the Lake Amador Gold Rush Festival (1969)
okay i just had a bad epiphany but corporate interestâs influence on the internet is going to become so much stronger now that generations that are internet naturalized have grown up and starting working as âsocial media consultantsâ. advertising is going to become so much more subtle, manipulate your behavior to a greater extent, and completely pervade every aspect of our lives the more we rely on the internet for everything from entertainment to social validation.Â
what im saying is its scary that corporate twitter accounts are getting good at twitter. to have the same avenue a human would to express themself. its like, an extreme anthromorphism of a brand, and that brand representing a corporate interest, and successfully passing itself off as a sentient entity on twitter, thats really weird to me.
like this is so fucked up. it doesnt immediately read as an advertisement, conceptually it executes the levels of irony and deconstruction that usually make for successful memes in this genre or whatever. its almost subverting itself, but ultimately it still succeeds as an advertisement. it makes me sick. for every misfire of corporations trying to relate (pepsi protest commercial), theres another company getting better at it
okay but like my thing about this is⌠who is actually eating at these places because shit like this? yeah itâs funny but i never go to wendyâs because a meme, if i go to wendyâs itâs because i want a gross burger and a frosty, same with taco bell and mcdonaldâs and wherever the fuck.
i really think that youâre blowing this out of proportion and having very little faith in peopleâs ability to decide what they want for themselves. itâs just not that deep.
Itâs not about the effectiveness of the ads in question, but their complete omnipresence in every aspect and moment of life, and how bizarre and sophisticated the mechanations of advertising have become. If people donât call attention to these things, they become normal.
The effectiveness of marketing isnt one-to-one, like, âad says burger is good, I think burger is good, I eat burger.â That was 50 years ago. Y'all, since then these multi-million dollar corporations have been hiring psychologists and sociologists and anthropologists to study how best to get under consumer skin and theyve figured out itâs not about making you WANT a burger,
Itâs about creating a Brand Identity - an anthropomorphized personality that your brain fits into an established schema (system of thought) so itâs easier to just drop into the background of your everyday life. Itâs not about making you want a burger, itâs about making it so, when you DO want a burger, the first place you think of is Wendyâs, because their ads have made you think about them five time already that day. And most importantly, itâs about making sure you dont realize how often they make you think about them, so you donât resent how pervasive theyâve become. They do that by tricking your brain into thinking of them as just another human-like personality. Your Funny Meme Friend Wendyâs. Wine Aunt World Market. Woke Jock Nike. Even your Endearingly Unhip Uncle Geico.
(hey also if you want dozens of terrifying examples of what I mean, just type âbrand identity schemaâ into Google like I just did and take a gander at all those scholarly articles discussing how best to acquire consumers, like weâre a fucking commodity)
one time i said i didnât like the wendys twitter and got called classist for hating retail employeesÂ
this shit works. it makes people like Brands. gets under their skin and in to their minds. when i said i didnt like the wendys twitter i personally offended people that viewed wendys as a friend, that viewed the wendys social media manager as a friendly individual that they respected.
the wendys social media manager is not your friend. they donât even really exist. thereâs no one person that writes the tweets for wendys. thereâs a team of 20 something year olds that casually observe the latest meme trends and crank out mspaint memes because they know theyâll get retweeted if the memes are relevant.
they trick you in to thinking that Wendys is a hip friendly young person, and they manipulate you in to thinking that disliking marketing is somehow a âproblematicâ âun-wokeâ thing to do.Â
and it works.Â
install ublock origin. on mobile, block every promoted tweet you see. donât let them convince you that this shit is normal.
I just wanna say, not only was I extremely correct in my paranoid regarding these posts, but itâs actually gotten way fucking worse already
Iâm just going to be blunt about it; Americaâs depression epidemic is a direct result of the all-encompassing alienation we experience under late stage capitalism, and now private interests are attempting to recuperate the general publicâs feelings of hopelessness and despair into marketing material, the spectacle in effect recuperating our despair and making it appear that the powers that be are on our side. That we are being watched over by boardrooms with loving grace, despite the fact that they are part and parcel with the forces of economy that has driven so many people to not see any hope in their lives. By recuperating the public discourse about the root of endemic depression, the status quo is able to trivialize it and sterilize it before before safely incorporating it back into mainstream society. Not only are we unable to strike against our enemy, most of us canât even see them for what they are, and the rest of us canât even speak to the truth of what they are capable of.
Pay attention to little bizarre happenings like these, they betray the rest of the iceberg

Lonely, confused, and horny brands are irritating enough, but Netflix accounts regularly tip over into ugly self-righteousness.
Someone smarter and better at writing than me did a big article on a big website about this so everyone in the notes saying this isnât actually a big deal can hop off đ
