cameras are like sex and movie sets function exactly like bdsm spaces because they set the space for people to act in a particular way until someone says the word to stop the scene. and if the people involved in making a movie are insane enough sometimes you get under-negotiated activities which is what bdsm is trying to prevent by establishing consent. a director is a pervert who likes telling people what to do. genuinely what is filming but a way where you get to perform in a most honest version of yourself by inherently acting as someone else. introducing: #brechtianbdsm

I think about The Man of the Hole so often. 27 years alone. 27 years with no one to speak to but strangers to wave to. Survived a genocide, a massacre that killed everyone he had ever known and later, an assassination attempt. He still tried to warn researches about the traps he built. He was only about 60 when he died in 2022. The people who tormented him in life later desecrated his grave.

I do think it is important to share the stories of the Lone Woman of San Nicolas Island and Ishi and the countless other indigenous people who experienced the profound trauma of being the last survivor but it is important to remember that the last Aboriginal families in Australia to be contacted by Europeans were resettled in the 1980s and the Indian government has proposed a plan that will mean total genocide for the Shompen people. The total eradication of indigenous peoples, their cultures, their languages, their ways of life, is not something which occurred in a distant ugly past but an ongoing process.

its always "ferran torres looks so good" and "ferran torres is so fit" and never "what a goal by ferran torres"

fair play

Do you think tumblr will ever learn the difference between “I’m defending this person because I agree with them wholeheartedly and I am also like this person” and “I’m defending this person because your behavior is dangerous and you need to stop”

This is so American I could CRY

people will really defend marriage so hard because it has benefits as if its not super limiting and frustrating for ONLY marriage to have those benefits. "hey i think we shoudn't prioritize marriage that much in our lives" "but marriage comes with so many benefits!" okay and why is it the only thing that lets you put someone else in your life as a designated "i trust them with healthcare or finance or my will". why cant marriage be extended to more than one other person. why is it only marriage, why cant you choose someone you really trust to handle your affairs, why does it have to be marriage. get real

Blackout poetry exists on a dual axis from "banal" to "insightful" on the input side and "kind of deep" to "incredibly fucking dumb" on the output side, and while taking something banal and producing something kind of deep is well and fine, for my money taking something insightful and rendering it incredibly fucking dumb is where the real art is.

#i stuck the word 'banal' in there twice specifically so that 'anal' would be low hanging fruit#but i genuinely did not anticipate 'banana' --@prokopetz
