Ephesians 4:29 (KJV) - Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

sometimes i wonder if certain...people who hate characters...spend more time thinking about them than people who like them. like, sometimes it seems very much this kate beaton comic
and you just. you know. gotta wonder what they're getting out of it
#is it fun? is it edifying?#consistently maintaining that level of anger and frustration just seems...idk corrosive#like i get it in a 'dog returning to its own vomit' kind of way but#please as a former 'reading things that caused me distress on purpose' person#if that's what's going on: please stop#for yourself and also the rest of us#lise's aggressively bitchy opinions about irrelevant and unimportant matters#i don't feel that bitchy but it's my complaining tag#i am speaking globally by the way#like certainly there are particular groups who are worse about this than others i would say#but i find that it does happen across the fandom spectrum as it were#anyway i should be trying to write instead of writing long-ass tags about this very unimportant subject

"After 1864, the absurd situation was reached in Warsaw where Polish teachers had to use Russian as the means of instruction for teaching Polish to Polish children (in accordance with the official myth that Polish was a 'foreign' language)."
And, regarding an individual dishonorably dismissed from the military:
"The charges against him mentioned that he had spoken in Polish in public, and that he had danced the Polonaise."
Norman Davies, God's Playground vol 2, on the forced russification of partitioned Poland
#ah yes the 3 partitions of poland: indignity fuckery and clownery#history#edifying reminders that the protocol is old very old

god the way everyone in mythology turn out to be more related than i thought. NIOBE WAS PELOPS' SISTER??
which means achilles to priam is like "so i have this boss, right? and his great aunt, alllll her kids were killed by the gods, and she still fed herself. i've killed WAY fewer of your kids than that, and you think you're doing WORSE than agamemnon's great aunt? come on"
#everybody keeps telling each other stories of warning and example about people's RELATIVES#like phoinix going 'hey let me tell you an edifying story about diomedes' uncle being a stubborn dick like you'#imagine having that conversation with a coworker using your OTHER coworker's family as an example what to do/not do to#awkward workplace environment: the epic

There's this bullet journal YouTuber who I watch on and off (mostly off because she favours the heavily aesthetic style of bullet journaling that intimidates me) but she mentioned off-hand in a video that she includes stuff about any media she's read/watched/listened to/etc. in her reading journal, and I think that's so refreshing. To just flat out be writing little reviews of movies and TV shows and video games in your reading journal in the current reading culture war we're in where people are getting pillioried on social media for not reading enough, or only reading fic, or only reading YA, or only reading "trashy" books, or [insert thing to be snobby about here], is such a great reframing.
I don't think books are "only" entertainment, but I don't think movies and TV shows are either, and also there is nothing wrong with just reading for fun instead of for your intellectual or moral edification. Hell yeah, let's value all types of media enough to write notes to ourselves about what we thought about them!
#most people do not read books at all#fiction or non-fiction#edifying or trashy#and the world has continued to turn#books are not inherently more noble and dignified as an artform#and they are not being degraded by the existence of romance novels you think are bad#literature will be fine: don't worry#people will continue to write what you consider to be important books#it is a basic human impulse to create both art and trash#we've always done both and we will continue to do both#so maybe calm down about who gets to 'identify' as a reader for five fucking minutes
