There's an interesting thing happening with the whole recognition of Hybe's profit over skill strategy. Fans of the company are re-centering the standard for singing to that of the company's groups instead of acknowledging the problem. That feels like a symptom of the fake news/subjective reality context of contemporary life.

In previous decades, there was some consensus over reality. What I mean by that is, we could all agree on what a good singer sounds like. We could debate who was better or best, but the debate between good vs bad singers wasn't controversial. Now, we live in a time period where people's identities and communities are rooted in beliefs (not facts) about art, and if these beliefs are lost, so too are people's identities and communities.

I think tying your identity, self-worth or community to someone else and their art is dangerous. We risk skewing reality to maintain our status quo if we are too entrenched. Donald Glover's Swarm was a good satire and statement on this phenomenon. I think there are already a lot of real-world consequences at play.

maybe it's selection bias but I was thinking of how post apocalyptic narratives in the Cold War era used to be set either in lawless urban spaces or in a deserted area wiped out by nuclear fallout while now the dominant aesthetic is nature reclaiming its place and engulfing and eroding human settlements

I want to cosplay Jehan Prouvaire, but I don't think anyone would know who he is. Alternatively, I could do Enjolras, seeing as I am blonde and I look like a seventeen year old girl

i don't really read fanfiction but i've seen that a lot of people that do really dislike 1st person pov, and i wonder why. 1st person pov is a tool as helpful as any other if used well, and generally the option to use it has some thought behind it and not just because, but is that not really a problem in original works because you don't know the character to begin with?

i have no problem at all with 1st person pov but i can imagine that characterization problems in fics would be even more apparent in it (aka they would not fucking think that, and such).

Sometimes I’m reminded that in universe Chilchuck is an actually influential figure who like. Made huge advancements for his people and community. Like as in gave them rights and protections. And who is widely known by half-foots because of that. Like. He’s not just some guy.

Idk For some reason that just makes his role in canon really funny to me. Like this older, extremely important and accomplished figure is just willingly putting himself thru it for the sake of this random autistic 26 year old.

Y’all want Taylor Swift to be gay so bad but you won’t even write femslash about her

tryna figure out what makes us intrinsically human since it isn't love, fear, empathy, intelligence, capacity for learning etc, and have come to the conclusion that actually maybe there is nothing special about us and that is ok. and really it is that or 9/11 jokes so .

i'm very picky about tv shows, but my pickiness has only an incidental relationship to whether or not a show is "good". it needs to scratch a particular itch in my brain at the right moment. do i know what the right moment is? no. do i know what the itch is? also no. i can be relied upon to get instantly bored of 85% of tv shows and then turn the remaining 15% into a central facet of my personality for 3-5 business months and even i am incapable of predicting which one it'll be ahead of time.
