let the wind carry me

sir paul mccartney you are more than a historic and national treasure to me. you are a mother and a father. a daughter and a mouse. a musical beast, a mythical archangel, and the most annoying person to exist. you are the virgin mary and the best juggler at a circus. you are a pin up doll and the 20th century mozart. all that.

idk i just feel like "it is more acceptable and in fact encouraged to mock anything enjoyed primarily by women" and "being enjoyed primarily by women does not make thing feminist and righteous" are thoughts that can and should coexist

oh and also "even if the thing is bad your criticism of it can come from a place of patronising misogyny"

ooh I got pliny of elder

if i was a different person with a different personality and a different life things would be kinda different i think

fiction can be really dangerous there might be a deeply tragic woman in there who starts living in your head forever

bob dylan is q*eer because he went electric, subverting the societal expectation we all had for him to not go electric

you can tell the terror was written by a gay guy because of the numerous nuanced and heart-wrenching depictions of gay love and also because there is an aging female socialite with an authoritative air whose fallen on tragedy yet still retains her pride

pretty sure the lineup of terror's most gay archetype characters (overlapping but separate from gay character archetypes) is like. lady jane, hickey, fitzjames, irving but only if you count the deleted letters to mother scene as canon. some of them perhaps chill hangs individually but collectively an indisputably nightmare blunt rotation. they should be trapped in an old hollywood movie together

the main issue with problems is how bad they suck. but what if there was a app that let you bet on child surgeries

"anonymised people of the global south"'s even more racist european twin

"perfectly ordinary European countries shouldn't have to SUFFER like those mythical third-world countries. Define what those mythical third-world countries are? Ummm anyway I shouldn't have to suffer, that's not supposed to happen to people like me"

saying "i wish you were pregnant with me" during sex
