"what About People Who Already Paid Off Their Student Loans?" Then They Should Get A Refund It's Quite

Apparently this needs to be said:

Spouses/partners/significant others of disabled people are not "heroes", ok?

Welcome back

i also wanna yell about gwendoline christie’s performance as lucifer because she’s just astonishingly good. so many people approach the role emphasizing the fallen aspect of the fallen angel, and she goes out of her way to emphasize that she’s a fallen angel. the way she treats dream with the utmost hospitality coated in poison, and fucks him over as much as she can with the same hollow pleasant smile on her face. the way she can’t outdo dream’s “I am hope” because to kill hope would be to kill her own hopes of one day going home. the way she literally gasps with tears in her eyes when dream calls her on that. and when the mask finally drops, and she tells him in no uncertain terms that one day, Hell will destroy him, it’s fucking personal and that she’ll be holding the knife herself. i can’t, honestly. give her all the awards.

anyway, Thought Of The Night:

when i was 6, i started experiencing back pain. said it hurt, kept suggesting a doctor.

no one listened.

by the age of 13, i should have been tested for scoliosis.

the school fucked up, and i wasnt.

at the age of 14, i went to the doctor for a bad back.

she looked at me, looked at how criminally large my breasts where, how fat i had become due to inability to exercise properly.

looked at my back. said i might get scoliosis if this kept up. do these exercises, youll be fine.

sent me home.

at the age of 15, i walked around New Orleans for a week in flats. gave myself tendonitis and plantar faasciatis.

no referrerals to a proper PT specialist. no rx drugs that might help. just...

here, do these at home exercises.

by the age of 16, i was having stomach pain every day from acid caused by my OTC drug use.

the stuff i used to mitigate the pain.

the doctor gave me what was essentially topical Ibuprofen. told me i couldn't injest painkillers anymore.

i was 20 by the time i saw a doctor and got my diagnoses. i was 20 before i knew i had fibro and scoliosis. i was 20 before i knew that drugs that weren't narcotics or OTCs that messed with my stomach existed, that i should use a cane, that i might need a wheelchair some days.

kids don't say "I'm in pain" over and over and over for attention. they don't fake being hurt in a chronic way.

i feel like everything i went through was preventable. i feel like i might be abled had i had proper care and treatment.

parents, caregivers, loved ones of children:

When a kid says they're in pain, please listen.

thinking about the time back when i was in middle school & we had a bomb threat at the school and after standing outside for a couple hours while the place was searched we got taken back inside around when it was my particular lunch period, and the school was like "we know you only have like 15 minutes left in the lunch period now because of that but we're not gonna give you any extra time lol we're getting back on schedule"

and the Entire block of middle schoolers in the span of like 5 minutes all quickly organized & agreed that we were NOT leaving until we had had our proper amount of lunch time and flat out all refused to get up when administrators kept trying to get us to because what were they gonna do? give like a hundred different students detention?

anyway after like 40 minutes we'd decided we'd been given our due and agreed to leave and go back to class & i think that display of collectivism & power of unity was what radicalized me

male gaze is not 'when person look sexy' or 'when misogynist make film'

death of the author is not 'miku wrote this'

I don't think you have to read either essay to grasp the basic concepts

death of the author means that once a work is complete, what the author believes it to mean is irrelevant to critical analysis of what's in the text. it means when analysing the meaning of a text you prioritise reader interpretation above author intention, and that an interpretation can hold valid meaning even if it's utterly unintentional on the part of the person who created the thing. it doesn't mean 'i can ignore that the person who made this is a bigot' - it may in fact often mean 'this piece of art holds a lot of bigoted meanings that the author probably wasn't intentionally trying to convey but did anyway, and it's worth addressing that on its own terms regardless of whether the author recognises it's there.' it's important to understand because most artists are not consciously and vocally aware of all the possible meanings of their art, and because art is communal and interpretive. and because what somebody thinks they mean, what you think somebody means, and what a text is saying to you are three entirely different things and it's important to be able to tell the difference.

male gaze is a cinematographic theory on how films construct subjectivity (ie who you identify with and who you look at). it argues that film language assumes that the watcher is a (cis straight white hegemonically normative) man, and treats men as relatable subjects and women as unknowable objects - men as people with interior lives and women as things to be looked at or interacted with but not related to. this includes sexual objectification and voyeurism, but it doesn't mean 'finding a lady sexy' or 'looking with a sexual lens', it means the ways in which visual languages strip women of interiority and encourage us to understand only men as relatable people. it's important to understand this because not all related gaze theories are sexual in nature and if you can't get a grip on male gaze beyond 'sexual imagery', you're really going to struggle with concepts of white or abled or cis subjectivities.

every once in a while I remember that hannibal lecter would show up at crimes he committed and be like “girl WHO did that???”
