#I’ve been reading articles on it

[mabeuf5]

thinking about how people in new york were so enthusiastic about the release of les misérables (1925) on broadway that the police got involved…

(the headline is sorta clickbait lol the article itself doesn’t really suggest an actual riot.. it was just veryyyy busy and the theatre was running showings at 15% over capacity)

TikTok just introduced me to this article from a few years ago that I’ve somehow never come across before and I’m gonna share some of my favorite parts from it

ppl r too comfortable assigning eating disorders to strangers they dont know online ngl like you have to consider the context in which they live (their profession is their body, they want to be the best, they're going to take care of their body differently to people who aren't pushing themselves to physical the limit every other night) and it's outright naive and diminutive and insulting to say they have eating disorders, not to mention a fundemental misunderstanding of an eating disorder, like if natemac did have ortho his hockey would've suffered because he would be thinking about food/calories all the time rather than hockey

while i’d be real careful with that last bit (professional performance isn’t necessarily an indicator of good mental health; people are capable of performing well even if they’re dealing with hardship and untreated disorders, even if nate. is historically not in that camp lol), yeah. it’s just puzzling to me. the parameters for this type of thing are so different even just person to person, but especially if you’re a professional athlete or work with your body (actors and celebrities too). i just don’t understand where anyone would take the absolute gumption to assume that about a stranger when they’re not 1) a professional sports nutritionist 2) for this particular person.

mainly what gets me about the whole thing around natemac is— he’s actually extremely ordinary among his peers lol? he just got so much publicity around it for no reason. like, connor mcdavid had a nutritionist and a chef before he played a single nhl game— you best believe i’ve never heard any of this kinda talk around him. (nate, by all accounts, started getting into nutrition around 2017/18, four years into his nhl career).

hell, nate isn’t even the most anal about nutrition on his own team. cale gets his nutritionist to meal prep him meals for entire road trips, which he takes with him in a cooler and has to hunt down microwaves on the go for.

anyway, i took a peep at that article about quinn hughes getting into nutrition this past season (lo and behold, no mention of him being a nut job for it anywhere that i could see) and it just made me think about the whole thing again

I say this with the deepest sense of hatred imaginable, fuck this article

The bizarre assumption that weight loss through diet changes means you’re “ON a diet” specifically a restrictive and unsustainable diet. Just because that’s all you’ve ever tried doesn’t mean it’s what everyone does!!

I’m taking a class on abstraction and I just got back from a crit where people were saying my works reminded them of Rothko’s chapel paintings in their intensity. Great how do I get that quality into the rest of my paintings

i know i’ve already posted something like this before but it’s just been on my mind a lot again. Sometimes i feel really silly about getting asexual stickers or ace card stud earrings or anything like that, because y’know it’s not like a lot of people are gonna recognize the small details or care. But then i remember how i used to feel before i knew about asexuality and connected it to myself; like something was deeply wrong with me, especially because it caused issues with an ex. And when i told them, it wasn’t rlly well recieved

So, i think about that, and get over the “silliness” of it. I’ll get or wear whatever small silly signs about my asexuality because acceptance starts with me, and it’s a reminder that i am whole no matter what anyone might think. We all are, no matter where on the spectrum we find ourselves on

I don’t really ship anything. I just find myself obsessing over the themes/parallels/vibes/literary symmetry/intensity/tragedy of various relationships for months at a time.

It’s not ‘they’re cute together.’ It’s ‘they’re fascinating together.’
