#and i needed to express it

[saradrawing]

I can't express how magnificent this scene seems to me.

The entire episode is a work of art in which everyone has their moment of glory. But these minutes that Goemon and Lupin share are masterful.

With very little dialogue and many looks full of feeling, it makes you feel real terror, it puts you fully into the hearts of the characters. It's terrifying to see the stoic Goemon so scared, his eyes say it all when Lupin explains him the terrible idea of ​​cutting the elevator's counterweight. The way they both talk before the jump, Goemon's voice shaking. The sweet way in which Lupin tries to reassure Goemon with his usual little smile, downplaying the matter, hiding that he is also terrified.

The way they both look at each other. The way Goemon jumps forward to grab Lupin, dislocating his shoulder in the action (later he wears a sling, and I don't think it's just because of the pain in his wrist).

It is a moment to see on the big movie screen, where time and breathing stop for them and for us, those who suffer on the other side of the screen. I get tears in my eyes every time I see this scene.

I think that most of current film blockbusters should watch this episode, and this scene, because it has a thousand times more emotional charge and more visual power than all of them together. Apart of course from the glorious animation, the use of monochrome when the scene freezes and the action itself, the elevator falling out of control and the jump that neither of them can miss.

One of Goemon's dialogues in the Spanish dub: "Lupin, don't worry, you never know... what... can happen. As soon as it's daylight and they discover this hole, I will protect you, even if it's with my life."

And Lupin trusts him with his life, in a leap of faith.

Lupin the third part 2, episode 148: The Target Is 555 Meters Away

btw, I think it's important to notice that this episode happens after "Goemon's close Call".

Something that I have noticed is I know almost nobody my age that goes to a food pantry. I know people who regularly run out of money for food and in general have to eat an unsuitable diet because that’s what they can afford and they still don’t go to a food bank, im not sure if it’s because they’re embarrassed or maybe if you didn’t grow up going you don’t know much about it but if you’re financially struggling I really recommend it. And look into other options for food assistance too like community fridges and gardens and other programs that can assist you, where I live Salvation Army pays for an allotted amount of grocery delivery for low income people every month, in the summer farmers take excess produce to the library to be taken by anyone who needs it, etc. There are a LOT of resources for free food that you can look into especially if you are literally not eating because of your financial situation

what studying literature feels like

the tradwife movement is the same as it has always been - back in the kitchen, back to breeding - it just has better branding.

when i was younger, i hated pink. i was not like other girls. this is now something i'm embarrassed of - this was not me being a "girl's girl."

but it was expressing something many of us felt at the time: i literally wasn't what girlhood was supposed to be. this is a hard thing to explain, but you know when you're not performing girlhood correctly. it isn't as easy as "i liked x when girls liked y" - because there were other girls that liked x, too - but i never figured out exactly the correct way to like x, or to be interested in y.

now there is the divine feminine. this is the same rhetoric it has always been: women are biologically driven to like pink and ribbons and submitting to our husbands.

the problem is that the patriarchy found a better PR team. because yes, actually, i want every woman to have the choice to be a homemaker. i also want her taken seriously for her legitimate home-making labor. i want her to be recognized as also having a job, just unpaid. i want men to have this opportunity, too.

but it is no longer "i made this choice and I love it." instead it is a sixteen-paragraph rant about how selfish it is that my generation isn't having kids. instead it's long videos about how if you feed your children processed foods, you're going to kill them. instead it is "this is what womanhood is supposed to be. i feel bad for any other choices you're making."

the shame spiral is just prettier. it is large houses devoid of personality. it is the implication: if you don't have this, you aren't happy. the solid, everlasting assurance: women are actually supposed to be submitting. this is the default. this is the natural state of things. all other attempts inflict suffering.

but you can no longer say i'm not like other girls. you can no longer reject this image completely. you cannot find it revolting, even if you know that the underbelly is toxic and festering. sure, it is the same repackaged patriarchy. but the internet does not have shades of grey. you should support and reward other women! your disgust is actually internalized misogyny. not because you are seeing a vision of yourself the way they're trying to train you to be. not because you feel her ghost pass within an inch of your earlobe. not because your father will eventually ask you - why can't you be like her?

because they figured out how to make it beautiful: women will sell other women on this idea, and we will find the singular loophole in feminism. sure, she's shaming you in most of her videos. sure, she implies that a different life is obscene. but she just wants you to be happy! you'd be happier if you were listening!

and the whole time you're sitting there thinking: i'd actually just be happier if i had that kind of money.

never forgive react youtubers for making ""what?????????? I'm so confused 😧😧" the peak of humor for so many people.. Now any and every piece of art that's even slightly unconventional has at least one dipshit in the comments that has to be loudly confused about it like ❔Ermmmmm what .... Op are you okay? Like fuck off. I wish I could put you in a saw trap until you understand the concept of art
