Virginia Woolf 🤝 Thomas Mann
Going full Orientalism and indicating that a character is androgynous/sexually ambiguous by describing them as having "Chinese" or "Kyrgyz" or other Asian-epithet eyes
#Clavdia Lily Elizabeth etc#Listen I know we can't have European modernism without the influence of colonialism and the death throes of empire#But can you like. Chill

and hans and claudia (?)
yayy a magic mountain couple, i think they had potential to be very fucked up and weird but unfortunately they were just kind of blah. they Were terrible for each other though so there’s that at least
#idk maybe other people disagree and will find them more interesting but i think their affairs are so banal compared to the rest of the book#like cmon mann if you’re going to give me#a couple signifying the moral decay and excesses of the pre-war european upper class#the least you can do is make them be not as bland as a piece of toast#also random but i wish translators would decide on a spelling for claudia/clavdia/clawdia#answered#mine

music name game
rules: pick a song for each letter of your URL and tag that many people (waaay too long to do that haha)
Tagged by @wistereia :3 Since I spent 6 hours writing a report yesterday I thought I'd make a list of mostly instrumental stuff that I like to listen to while writing (for work or pleasure). Spotify link under the cut.
Movement III - Linear Tableau with Intersection Suprise / Sufjan Stevens El cielo no es de nadie / ela minus Rest / El Huervo Gloomy Sunday / The Toxic Avenger Escape Artist / Zoë Keating
Call to Arms / The Huntress and Holder of Hands On Reflection / Max Richter Nunovo Tango / DVA Fortune Days / The Glitch Mob Legions (War) / Zoë Keating Insomniac Olympics / Blockhead Clavdia's Waltz / The Dreadnoughts Tailspin / Antti Paalanen
tagging @luvwich, @gamerkitten, @corpocyborg, and anyone else who wants to share music.
#tag game#couldn't resist adding in some accordion at the end#linear tableau with intersecting surprise is such a banger though#that's what my brain sounds like when it's in happy burbling chaos#for a blogging platform tumblr's 'rich' text editor sure does suck eh#Spotify

C for the ask thing
“Clavdia’s Waltz” - The Dreadnoughts
“Captain Kidd” - Great Big Sea (fun fact: this 1701 ballad shares a tune with the 1811 American hymn “What Wondrous Love Is This”, and this pirate/hymn dichotomy is used to great effect in Bear McCreary’s score for Black Sails (the latter serves as the Max/Eleanor love theme in season 1) (listen: CK, WL). For all you folk music nerds out there, this song is Roud 1900/5089.)
“Carmen Miranda’s Ghost” - Leslie Fish
“Chnam Oun Dop Pram Mouy” - The Cambodian Space Project (cover, originally by Ros Sereysothea)
“Come, sinner, tonight’s the night” - perf. Samuel Ramey, from Carlisle Floyd's opera Susannah
(bonuses: “Come, Wayward Souls” perf. Samuel Ramey, “Cake By the Ocean” by DNCE shut up it slaps)
#have fun with this range! hope you enjoy them#music#asks#song meme#pencil-pilferer#yes i did research for this who do you think i am?? you think i could just answer a simple question & not infodump at least a LITTLE? fool.#you ask for five songs and i link you to eleven and give you some history

Game time! Go to Spotify (or equivalent) and shuffle your liked songs, then post the first 10! Include the title, artist, and genre!
I came up with this idea when thinking "wow, my music tastes are so specific and weird." XD
This is a folk/traditional song is about an English girl to game to the American colonies with her family. She wants to go home. The narrative perfectly describes my nerdy interests! I haven't listened to it for a while.
This is a sea shanty! It is a classic shanty. The narrative is unclear to me but it might be about prostitutes-
This is an instrumental rock piece. Imagine classical but it's tavern music. It has a pretty gothic feel to it!
What can I say? This song is beautiful! I love Les Mis and this is definitely one of the best ones. I went through a huge Les Mis faze in early 2020 and I listened to this on repeat.
YES. Haha let's bully Thomas Jefferson into writing. I love 1776, of course. This song is cursed and amazing as always.
I was surprised that there was another 1776 song! >:0 I have about 275 songs on this playlist. Here we get some wholesome Adams' moments. :3
This Irish folk song was on a shanty playlist I found and it's very relaxing! I've found out that I like Irish music. It's pretty!
This is a British patriotic song from WWI! I find it very catchy and a good song. I tend to like the shanty/patriotic music type of music. They are quite similar!
Lovely musical! Everything about it is great! Anatole has evolved into a huge inside joke with my friends.
I've been obsessed with rock-shanties lately and this is a great one! It has a pretty mix of tempos and instruments. :)
Tags! Have fun! @alexanderxbetsey @battleofbunkerhill @sarcasticrevolutionarist @queenbottomless @pixilotol @lafsyetre @i-like-old-things @stinkydeadmen @waitfor-vienna and anyone else! <3

I'm 41, nerdy, into video games and stuff. I never really did "social" well or anything like that.
So I have to ask, "Is Goth Clavdia" a satirical naming convention or social meme?
gerard way, who i am a fan of, briefly changed his twitter name to "goth claudia" a while ago. my name is claudia. so i thought it would be kinda funny to name my account after it. the "v" instead of the "u" is just because someone already took that url.

"slow show" by the national & the scene in the magic mountain where hans castorp finally speaks to clavdia chauchat at the mardi gras party & addresses her with the informal "du" are the same Emotion. thanks. also i have. So many ideas about that scene & the language barrier & T/V distinction & how (in my reading) clavdia interprets hans's enthusiasm as that of the poetic speaker from pushkin's ты и вы, that is to say, the romantic (& capital-R Romantic) suitor's delight at being able to disregard bourgeois convention & speak with his beloved on ~intimate terms, but as his rapture intensifies to a fever pitch & he calls her "the du of my life," imo he's gesturing at a sort of i-thou relation, a definitive relationship involving each of their whole beings, something sacred & all-consuming that exists on its *own* terms & resists explanation.

Once I saw an exchange you had with another anon in Italian, and found out that you were an Italian, I wanted to know this something about you but didn't know if it was exactly appropriate, but the curiousity is kind of getting me. do you have a favourite distilled water brand in your country? Im a huge water nerd, and I google water more times than healthy n i do rather like Italian distilled water
hahah Anon I think you just won, a water nerd is a new thing. I like nerdy things tho. Tbh I once saw a water shop in the train station, with many different brands I didn’t know, I think you would have liked it. Or maybe you have these in your country already, for me it was a new thing and it closed soon.
I’m not exactly knowledgeable because at home I drink tap water that in my city it’s very good quality and taste. I actually know more the brands I hate lol because when I eat somewhere and they come up with these it’s disappointing. Ferrarelle is the more popular in Italy and it’s like sparkling water that you left open so it lost it’s coolness but still is just a little little sparkling. f*ck it. Also I hate Vitasnella or Rocchetta and all the brands that make it look like their water is slimming. Like. It’s water dude. But these are popular. Also Panna is popular but it tastes like the water your mother puts in the thing to iron clothes lol.
I like very much San Pellegrino, it’s super sparkling and also expensive lol and it’s known in the world too. Also Guizza. Or San Benedetto. These are popular too, not much Guizza I think. I’m not sure because Italy is little but we have many different products and brands in different regions so if you travel all of it you will see in the north things you don’t see in the south, for food and water as well. Like in my region we have Clavdia and Nepi and others that are popular, if you move to the next region you have Misia and Sangemini among all others.
But I think the most popular in the nation is Ferrarelle and the first ones I mentioned.
Idk all these things lol but I got curious and googled brands and I mentioned those I know :)
btw I only now realized you wrote you like italian water so now I’m curious which ones?
#lol I remember some Swedish person here said water in Italy is unsafe for them...first world problems haha#Anonymous#replies &co

Such doleful tales raise the question of why so many writers fled to L.A. Why not go to New York, where exiled visual artists gathered in droves? Ehrhard Bahr answers that the “lack of a cultural infrastructure�� in L.A. was attractive: it allowed refugees to reconstitute the ideals of the Weimar Republic instead of competing with an extant literary scene. In addition, film work was an undeniable draw. Brecht’s anti-Hollywood invective hides the fact that he worked industriously to find a place as a screenwriter, and co-wrote Fritz Lang’s “Hangmen Also Die!” Even Thomas Mann flirted with Hollywood; there was talk of a film adaptation of “The Magic Mountain,” with Montgomery Clift as Hans Castorp and Greta Garbo as Clavdia Chauchat. The real explanation for the German literary migration to L.A., though, has to do with the steady growth of a network of friendly connections, and at its center was Salka Viertel. Donna Rifkind pays tribute to this irresistibly dynamic figure in “The Sun and Her Stars: Salka Viertel and Hitler’s Exiles in the Golden Age of Hollywood” (Other Press), and New York Review Books recently reissued Viertel’s addictive memoir, “The Kindness of Strangers.” Viertel worked tirelessly to obtain visas for endangered artists, and to help them find their footing when they arrived. Weimar on the Pacific might never have existed without her.

Clavdia’s Waltz is just such a lovely melancholy song on the same album which features a single other instrumental song which has the exact OPPOSITE energy, Goblin Humppa
