found out Diderot was apparently Marx's favourite author.

haters will say it's because Diderot was one of the earliest atheist materialist thinkers, but deep down in my heart, I know it was because of those lesbian nuns

What do you call a bear studying for a degree in dentistry?

A molar bear

Even though Tech is gone (for now), the other characters bring me so much joy, like Crosshair and Omega, lol.

i keep getting tiktoks of these younger gen z kids referencing a time they did something relating to fandom in public and now they're embarrassed by it and everytime i see one i sit there thinking over all of middle and high school and having genuinely 0 moments that i feel embarrassed by, like i definitely did a lot of shit these kids would be embarrassed by but i think these are all just really fucking funny

also photographic evidence of the kinda kid i was. these are from 2014/15 when i was in 8th grade

-desolation row one shot(still on wattpad gerard way/reader smut)

-twerk it on (mcr crack fanfic no longer on wattpad but i have another fic in my library called twerking in taco bell which definitely ALSO used for my reading log)

-frank iero must die(a serial killer/assassin frerard fic, still on wattpad)

-hair (really vague maybe a phanfic? nowhere in my wattpad library rip)

my binder i used in 7th grade i had a blue one that looked pretty similar to this for 8th grade but idk where it went, also the parts i scribbled out are my full legal name i had written on it. i wrote it normally and then the big spot is where i wrote my name REALLY BIG in elysian code from the vladimir tod books. also the lines are from when i used an exacto knife to cut up some papers and forgot that my binder was underneath

in conclusion yall can now see why im so shameless about talking about shigaraki the way i do

Happy Queer Media Monday!

Today: I Dream In Another Language (2017)

I watched this movie a few weeks ago, and it STUCK.

(Don Evaristo and Don Isauro just before their first interview to record Zikril together.)

I Dream in Another Language is a Mexican magic realism movie about the death of a culture. It documents the efforts of a linguist trying to save the (fictional) language Zikril, spoken only by three old indigenous people. When one of them dies, the studies come to a halt, as the other two, Don Evaristo and Don Isauro, have not spoken to each other in over fifty years and categorically refuse to have anything to do with each other. As he looks further into this, the linguist discovers that the real reason for this feud is their past relationship and an awful lot of internalized homophobia.

Zkril is an artificial language, created specially for this movie out of respect for the people who still speak the endangered and disappearing languages today. The fact that it has seemingly magic powers, and that its speakers appear to be living on after their death, clearly puts the story into the magic realism genre.

This is NOT a happy movie. The internalized homophobia part is no joke, and the main theme of course is the loss of a language, and the culture that comes with it. 

But it damn sure is leaving an emotional impact.

I strongly suggest that everyone who is even vaguely interested in this subject read up about languages and language conservation. The Wikipedia page of this movie is as a good place to start as any, since there are related articles linked in the references list. I also would like to thank @celluloidrainbow for bringing this film to my attention.

Queer Media Monday is an action I started to talk about some important and/or interesting parts of our queer heritage, that people, especially young people who are only just beginning to discover the wealth of stories out there, should be aware of. Please feel free to join in on the fun and make your own posts about things you personally find important!

thanksgiving is tomorrow and i usually handle desserts but with my mom in the hospital the last few weeks things have just been crazy and I didn't want to commit to making that many desserts, so i was considering buying them and my siblings convinced me to go wait in line outside this AMAZING local pie shop we have so i spent 45 minutes in line this morning and dropped 80 US DOLLARS on TWO pies. which is crazy but its a small business and they're like the cream of the crop.

and i was like this is great this is wonderful!! We never splurge like that at ALL, but fuck it!!! mom will get a day pass from the rehab center and we'll have these amazing pies to celebrate and it'll be worth it!!!

So imagine my soul crushing horror and despair upon walking into my house just now to BOTH PIES splayed across the carpet in my living room crime scene style w my dog covered in crumbs and radiating like toxic levels of guilt.

She just ate 80 US DOLLARS worth of fucking pies and also my last shred of resolve for this month. Im like over it im over it im over it im

[folksy]

my crush (whom I work with) really hurt my feelings the other day (coworker who is my friend was pissed about what they said too as they were there- multiple coworkers think what they said was uncalled for as they shouldn’t have said it in front of me) and they weren’t at work yesterday so I made some remarks and I feel kind of bad about it since I like the guy and I was making jokes about them while they were gone but they did really fucking hurt my feelings and I know they didn’t mean to but it was a sensitive thing I’m pretty sure they were aware about. like it’s pretty known that I have to leave the job and move because it’s too expensive where I live and we were talking about me getting their position if they left (they’re full time and make more) but they were like actually I think these two people would be the top candidates for the position and it’s like okay you can think that but don’t say it in front of me when 1. you know I’m leaving my current position and moving back in with my parent because the cost of where I live is fucking ridiculous and 2. I’m pretty insecure about my job and worry that I’m not good (although many people have said I’m one of the best part timers there) so why would you indirectly say I wouldn’t get the position that I want to come back and get after saving up in my hometown

Freaky story time:

I have gotten this new bright red bike recently while also having another bike I still use from time to time. My appartment building have a locked basement for bikes so only the people living in the building can enter. 

I decided to take my old bike to group (a new group begun today). When arriving home from group I wanted to just put my bike away for a while and go up to chill for 2,5 hours before having to go to the first choir practice of the season. Although when I went down to the basement I found that one bike, the red one, was gone. 

Me being late then had to take the elevator 5 floors up again (my old bike didn’t have any lights on) to get some lights, riding the old bike to practice while cursing all the way about what the hell happened with the red bike and what to do about it. After choir practice however when I went down in the basement again the red bike was back, safe yet unlocked.

I swear it was not there when I went! But now here it was?

I feel like I am going slightly crazy :’D
