Love that Oppenheimer is a deeply disturbing horror movie about a man forced to accept that he is, in a person, the representative manifestation of mankind’s evil in committing one of the greatest horrors of human history - LITERALLY acting as the modern Prometheus, tormented by his sins for the remainder of time. Knowing that he will never be pitied and his actions will forever be utterly unforgivable because the blood of genocide and the potential of total human annihilation will eternally drip from his hands.
But also the simultaneous indictment by the film that to blame a single person for the Manhattan Project is to refuse to accept your own capacity for great evil if the ends ever seem to justify the means, and the culpability of every member of a species that lets itself create something so unspeakably terrible.
Hate that twitter’s take on such a nuanced and brilliantly handled examination of those issues is “movie bad because protagonist not evil enough.”
#what’s that quote about the problem with othering the enemy in media is that we can no longer see our own reflection in their eyes#oppenheimer’s motivations WERE sympathetic that’s the POINT#we SHOULD feel uncomfortable with our sympathy for him - the film goes out of its way to make us feel uncomfortable about it#we should be uncomfortable with the fact that we might have made the same decisions as him in his place#yes he’s evil but his evilness represents the evil that we might all accept in ourselves#twitter simply cannot handle nuanced takes on things ig (tumblr does though - the posts on here have been surprisingly excellent)#oppenheimer#(tldr - look if you walk out of Oppenheimer thinking it somehow celebrates the man then you may need to retake 9th grade Literature srry)#films

“Seeing it now, this crown of swords...Guinevere is the only one who knew where it was.”
for @queer-ragnelle's May Day Parade (May Queen Guinevere)
#queen guinevere#and mordred's there i guess technically. whatever. its not about him#arthuriana legend#arthuriana#didnt think i was gonna be inspired for this one in time but i double checked the context fo the quote and OUUGH#Obssessed with the implication the alliterative has that quinevere could be some kind of caretaker for clarent#literally the coverted representation of rulership of the land and she keeps it in the back of the wardrobe#go queen betray your husband or something#my art#may day parade

“I was pretty lucky on the LSD front, in that it didn’t screw things up too badly. There was a scary element to it, of course. The really scary element was that when you wanted it to stop, it wouldn’t. You’d say, ‘Okay, that’s enough, party’s over,’ and it would say, ‘No it isn’t.’ So you would have to go to bed seeing things.
Around that time, when I closed my eyes, instead of there being blackness there was a little blue hole. It was as if something needed patching. I always had the feeling that if I could go up to it and look through, there would be an answer. Now, I could go on about how the wordplay in Bing Crosby’s song ‘Please’ – ‘Oh, Please / Lend your little ear to my pleas’ – might be informing the wordplay in ‘And it really doesn’t matter if I’m wrong I’m right / Where I belong’. The fact is that the most important influence here was not even the metaphysical idea of a hole, which I mentioned earlier, but this absolutely physical phenomenon – something that first appeared after I took acid. I still see it occasionally, and I know exactly what it is. I know exactly what size it is.”
— Paul McCartney on “Fixing a Hole”, The Lyrics
#this may be my favorite bit in the whole book#it’s so funny#‘yeah fixing a hole is about a literal hole I saw while high on acid’#‘I still see it actually’#what the fuck paul#my quotes#paul mccartney#the beatles#beatles#fixing a hole

jared harris doomed grouchy alcoholic captain of my heart and all, but I cannot emphasise just how moving it is to read the actual crozier’s letters to his ‘dear sisters’ and nicknaming his sister charlotte as ‘dear small’ and gushing over how excited he is to serve under someone so honourable as sir john franklin and constantly asking james clark ross to pass on his love to ross’s wife and baby and nicknaming anne ross ‘thot’ (??) and the baby cute things like ‘the dear little stranger’ and ‘little sir james’
and yes I love terror’s francis ‘crankypants’ crozier, but the fact that we think of victorian men as being repressed and emotionless and yet every single one of the real man’s letters just overflows with affection and good humour just Does Something to me ok
#the terror#may we be spared to meet on earth#history#don’t even get me started on the Dork Twins fitzjames and goodsir#goodsir gushing about Science Things#fitzjames recommending a lieutenant for service because he ‘invented fuzes or something’#(direct quote)#I’m crying a little

thinking about it, there’s no way mike didn’t notice will crying in the van scene.
the fact is we’ve been shown repeatedly throughout the seasons that mike’s always the first one to realise when something’s off with will: “he’s quiet today”, being the one to find him on halloween, always being the one to notice when will touches the back of his neck, etc. even in season 3 when they’re fighting and therefore less in tune with each other than before we get the [will voice] “get away from the door” scene.
in fact, in season 4 itself mike is shown to still be so in tune with will - even after their time apart - that, in the roller rink scene, he got up quite literally the second will said “oh no”. he didn’t notice the way that el was clearly uneasy when angela came up to her, but he notices everything when it comes to will.
there’s no way that the mike wheeler we know and love didn’t notice will crying. there has to be another reason he didn’t say anything. there has to be.
i would LOVE to hear everyone else’s theories on why, but first i’d like to propose one of my own: mike doesn’t think he needs to say anything.
to elaborate, in mike and will’s relationship, a lot is left unspoken (“i didn’t say it” “you didn’t have to”). i mean, it makes sense, they’ve known each other for a decade at this point and to 14/15 year olds that’s basically forever. because of this, mike expects will to just tell him things (e.g. mike asking will why he didn’t tell him el was being bullied even though it didn’t make sense to expect him to). mike doesn’t push will to talk to him or tell him why he’s crying or even acknowledge it because he knows that if will wanted him to know, he would tell him. mike has no reason to believe that will would purposefully hide anything from him, he believes that will will tell him if he wants to, when he’s ready.
#byler#mike wheeler#will byers#st#stranger things#stranger things s4#my time scale may be off on account of i’m british and have no concept of what kindergarten is#i mean i was about to spell it ‘kindergarden’ before i got autocorrected#god if only i could memorise odyssey quotes this easily#s2 mike would’ve held his hand for sure. but internalised homophobia is a bitch#anyway i refuse to believe anything bad about mike wheeler#so this is my justification

Going to break into your house with pots and pans and yell at you until you reframe your thinking of productivity to include more than just schoolwork or a salary or chores and the like.
Did you do a thing? Was there a positive result for you or someone else?
Congratulations, you did a Productivity!!!
You aren’t ALWAYS going to be able to have the energy to do what we consider traditionally productive. You won’t always have the motivation.
Yeah, maybe you could have spent two hours studying for that test instead of 15 minutes. Maybe you could have cleaned the kitchen instead of the dishes. And? That’s still something!
Productivity is doing things!! Did you eat food and drink water? You did something that helped your body work! Doodled in class? You made art! Even just posting theories and memes on tumblr dot com is a thing! You thought out the post, figured out how to organize it (even if you don’t realize you did that) and you made it! And now other people can see and you DID something and you should be proud!!!
Be proud of yourself or I am going to show up outside your window tonight and scream positive affirmations louder than a cat who has just discovered her food bowl is empty.
#ESPECIALLY if you are disabled or mentally ill or sick or neurodivergent or any of the like#For me with ADHD and oftentimes poor mental health I really struggle to be traditionally “productive”#And earlier today I was frustrated because I was having a difficult time finishing a school assignment.#But also?#I noticed and made a post about a parallel between comic panels.#I’m working on a long post analyzing specific quotes from Webtoon.#I got up and got a water bottle.#Is that not productive?#Does that not produce a result that I and others may enjoy?#y’all have GOT to acknowledge little victories because that took effort and THAT was productive and Im sosososososososososo proud of you!!#adhd#autism#neurodivergent#i dont know what all to tag this as so feel free to reblog with any tags you feel this applies to or apply to you in relation to this!!#productive#disability#actually autistic#actually adhd#rambles
