#it's comedy central to me

I do think Blazing Saddles handled its one depiction of native americans very poorly, and the full extent of its representation of chinese workers on the railroad is they were literally just there. not even one single speaking line. unclear if this is worse or better than the redface.
it's fucking phenomenal at lampooning antiblack racism though. extremely blatant, extremely funny satire, which is constantly and loudly saying "racism is the philosophy of the terminally stupid at best and morally depraved at worst, and we should all be pointing and laughing at them 24/7"
plus the main character is a heroic black man who has to navigate a whole lot of bullshit but is constantly smirking at the extraordinarily stupid racists and inviting the audience into the joke. the one heroic white character is a guy who was suicidally depressed until he met the protagonist and they just instantly became buds, and he's firmly in a supporting role the whole time and happy to be there. the protagonist saves the day with the help of his black friends from the railroad, and uses the position of power he was given to uplift not only those friends, but all the railroad workers of other minorities too, in an explicit show of solidarity.
anyone saying "Blazing Saddles is racist" had better be talking about its treatment of non-black minorities. it had better not be such superficial takes as "oh but they say the n-word all the time" or "they have nazis and the kkk in there!" because goddamn if that's the full extent of your critique I very seriously suggest you read up on media analysis. there is too much going over your head, you need to learn to recognize satire.
#blazing saddles#finx watches tv#finx rambles#I recognize that I'm saying all this as someone who's not black#but I am also saying it as someone with a basic understanding of race relations in the usa#and a basic understanding of sarcasm#bc it really does not take more than that to recognize what they're doing in this movie#it is NOT subtle#and it is very funny#mel brooks movies are kinda hit or miss for me ngl#men in tights is great if a bit too crass for my taste#spaceballs has great jokes but the central story lacks any real heart so it doesn't grab me#history of the world was just kind of unpleasant and then I switched it off#but blazing saddles? phenomenal#I could not stop laughing the whole way through#and the central story DOES have heart bc it's the friendship between bart and#whassisname#jim#the Kid#plus bart working out how to succeed at an impossible task#also frankly cleavon little just grounds the comedy really well even before gene wilder shows up and we get their chemistry#bc he's cool calm collected and constantly inviting the audience into the joke#but the character's not too cool to ever mess up or ever be silly#he makes bad choices and gets into bad situations and then has to get himself out of them#but it's.....oh wait duh there's a term for this already#he's the straight man#he grounds all the zany nonsense by being in strong contrast to it#and he does a great job of it!#anyway#point is I deeply enjoyed this movie and I'm glad I finally watched it

Linked universe x modern reader but the reader isn't into the whole adventure thing and instead only has one mission in mind.
Finding their beloved pet that they were separated from.
They search all throughout Hyrule, helping the boys along the way and keeping a sharp eye and keen ear out for their furry friend. It's basically their main quest and the actual adventure involving the shadow and the boys is like a side quest.

Major Boobage is one of the funniest episodes of anything ever just for the smash cut to Kenny and Gerald fighting in the sand box. That scene had me fucking cackling in the hospital a couple weeks ago and I was extremely annoyed when the nurse interrupted to check my vitals ngl. Sheila was BIG mad
#I fuckin love South Park#tbh comedy central is the only thing that kept me sane in that icu#I just remembered that specific moment bc I leaned my head back just now and there’s still a painful lump oof#and that’s on head injury babeyyyy#yes I’m gonna joke about it#also Cartman with all the cats in the attic is hysterical especially kyles reaction to it

Straight men are not it!!!! They make me Sick!!!!!
#ray says#they're not even the majority of my coworkers it just so happens that in my position i am near them 10x more than anyone else#and many of em are security agents and i keep hearing their sick jokes and dumb takes!!!#it doesnt even matter that i let them know v firmly that i dont stand w that shit and that i love and respect gay men and trans women esp#cus then they will throw transmisogynistic jokes at me bc to them im an unfeminine dark skinned black woman so ofc ofc 🙄 perfect target#only thing that shields me is i dont id as a woman anyway but to think thats how they talk abt other people??? MY PEOPLE??? eewwwwww DIE#i swear sometimes i wanna quit cus of these guys cus it's all hehe and haha and then its bigoted comedy central like what is this????#and then when i get rightfully angry they find it funny? drop dead already 😭#and it makes me hate that most of the time i get along w em outside of political stuff bc we're from similar cultural backgrounds#but the morals rly went in different directions and now we both hate cops but you're in the military? the world's biggest cop corp?#and the thing is ik exactly how & why these moc turned out that way but what does it do for me to extend such empathy for ppl who would-#-want me dead if they knew i actually rly truly wanted to become a man myself. AND date other men. like its fine if im a gay woman ig#like!!!! ohh my god my bad i just got so heated and i havent found time to buy my diary yet. sorry sorry#first post in a while... ok bye#(this was sparked by a vid of a bw saying straight women should avoid lgbt-phobic men cus they are 100% sexist too. all fax)

i need comedy central to bring back drunk history so when i grow up and become a famous person in academia, i can get drunk on that show and yap about Ovid and his history of fanfiction authorhood with his Heroides and Metamorphoses and how he is so very much like us in the modern day by having the kind of takes people could either consider ass or greatness.
#brain dump#random thoughts#sleep deprived ramblings#my rants#shitpost#drunk history#comedy central#ovid#writing#fanfiction#fanfic#get me drunk#i would down rum and cokes just to go on and on about how crazy ovid was historically#either that#or my love for the nuclear bomb inspiring the birth of godzilla#id do it rn
