#no I like passing my classes

[wewontbesleeping]

got scheduled outside of my availability for the next two weeks, working every single day with no days off. already decided if my new manager doesn’t take some of the shifts back I’m putting in my two weeks notice. or maybe quitting without notice entirely. genuinely think I made the biggest mistake of my life transferring stores. my old manager respected my availability and it was all just better. it was so much better. I basically am just getting handed all the worst shifts no one else is willing to do. and the water is fucking disgusting which isn’t the biggest issue but on top of everything else I can’t even drink anything.

had to watch the new Folding Ideas video twice, read all of the comments, watched Lady Emily's video, watch an AVGN video for the first time (sorry i'm gen z), failed to get through Wavelength (1967), read a bunch about Wavelength (1967), and read through a bunch of Twitter comments, but i think i'm finally understanding the artistry in "i don't know james rolfe"

narratively it's dan olson revealing the rorschach test of media analysis, i.e. there was no way for him to critically analyze james rolfe's career without revealing all of his own obsessions and insecurities, just as james rolfe reveals himself through his film and video game reviews. this concept is lampshaded by the highlighting of Wavelength (1967), an extremely minimal and obtuse film that engages with the idea of inattention — meaning that bored or negative responses to the work are still responses to the theme. which is cool.

and it's cool that criticisms of dan olson's video include people upset that he hyper-focused on specific elements of james rolfe's life and not other, arguably more important elements, such as the Monster Madness controversy or james's time in special ed — almost as though the character of dan olson is cherrypicking aspects of james rolfe's life that are the most personally wounding to him. aspects that expose dan's insecurities relating to filmmaking and failed dreams, expressed through the vessel of AVGN.

but meta narratively, the video becomes a rorschach test for the audience — your response to the video reveals your own obsessions and insecurities in how you relate to dan olson. why does someone find the video mean-spirited? why does someone else think the video is self-serving? why do I feel so awkward watching dan attempt a deeper, more abstract creative work?

where does dan olson end and the character of dan olson as a media critic begin? where do you as an audience member end, and YOU begin?

it's projection all the way down

Me: EAH has a bunch of plotholes and retcons, I don't have to believe everything canon tells me because it gets things wrong or just flatout contradicts itself at times and it is no use getting hung up on small details that ultimately don't matter in the grand scheme of the story.

Also me: [Trying to come up with a way to explain the whole "the Evil Queen stole the Dark Fairy's destiny" detail]

Stray Gods, I would like to make a formal apology for prematurely issuing a low score on my Apollo-in-media Judgement Scale before playing you. Yes, you do commit many cardinal sins with his physical design such as having him look like a surfer bro with the Brad Pitt-Achilles nape length bob and that is, in some ways, unforgiveable, but I should have known better than to judge a book by its cover. Or, in this case, an Apollo by his abs.

So we had a teacher in high school that was considered "the fun teacher" the young guy that cracked wise and half heartedly self depreciated because jokes like that are like crack for teenagers.

Well

Someone in my class coded a website to collect all of the out of context depressing shit he said and memorialize it, highly encouraging kids in other classes to submit more to the site. I can't remember much but the submissions were things like "and that's why my wife left me" and "I will be dismissing class directly out of that window".

My point is, someone definitely made a site like this for Aizawa.

Was complaining about how weird it is that my LGBTQ lit professor used books from every era and facet of queer history except AIDS and one of my underclassmen classmates genuinely asked me why AIDS is a queer issue OPEN THE SCHOOLS OH MY GOD
