they called us travelling players, fools, and troubadours we did turns for the king, and they still called us whores sometimes we’ve been icons, in the plague years illegal but we believed in our craft – because we are show people.

#honestly as much as i love the music & drive & energy of the new album - frank doing acoustic versions always hits differently #🖤#frank turner #show people #music #fthc #Youtube

I just think everyone should take a moment to consider the question "what is your visual shorthand for cruelty?" and then follow it up with a critical "and who taught you that?"

specific examples include but are not limited to

why is an evil timeline character design disabled? (why do the heroes go through equally punishing battles and never lose an arm, a leg, an eye?)

why are the futuristic scifi terrorists uniformly darker skinned? (why are the heroes so much lighter?)

why is the greedy boss fat? (why are the heroes skinny?)

why is the criminal mastermind heavily scarred? (why is the brooding, traumatized hero unscathed?)

why is the predatory creep a bearded person in a dress and makeup? (why are none of the heroes trans women?)

who taught you that this is how things are?

how long do you plan on repeating it?

#not art #been on the mind a lot. you are not immune to propaganda and neither am i dot garfield etc etc #for filtering:#ableism #racism #fatphobia #transphobia #transmisogyny #if i see one more 'this character from old show is so hashtag gender!!' and its just a transmisogynistic caricature im gonna lose it #and yes i do unfollow people for that. regrettably some sites show me things from strangers

it is legit bizarre to me how hard video game creators and film directors and showrunners try to pretend that fat people don't exist. can you think of the last time you saw a fat person in a lead role? god forbid a fat woman? i can walk down the street or go into a shop or restaurant and see fat people everywhere but then i switch on the tv and suddenly it's like a glimpse into an alternate universe where no one has a bmi over 24. insidious and weird

#i don't wanna sound dramatic but it's just so crazy that it's like this and nobody even talks about it #tbh disability is like this too - you don't see fat people and you don't see disabled people unless it's a joke or a plot point #'we don't want to glamourise obesity' it's not 'glamourising' anything. it's showing the world as it is.#sure you can create a world devoid of all the people you don't find aesthetically pleasing but at least acknowledge that you're doing that #fatphobia #weight talk cw #ableism #be shh now #containment breach

somehow instead of saying "as a treat", I've started using the phrase "for morale", as if my body is a ship and its crew, and I (the captain) have to keep us in high spirits, lest we suffer a mutiny in the coming days.

and so I will eat this small block of fancy cheese, for morale. I will take a break and drink some tea, for morale. I will pick up that weird bug, for morale.

I'm not sure if it helps, but it does entertain me

#personal #sbs rambles #eta: the people tagging this with leverage are correct by the way #love that show so much #hug for morale!#but that's not what started me doing this I think #hmmm

Last week i watched "Show People" (1928) Comedy/Romance

I have wanted to see a silent film with live music for years, so when I saw they were showing this at a local collage with live piano accompaniment I did everything I could to make it happen. I saw it with my grandma and we both really enjoyed it. It was a lot better than I expected it to be, the jokes were great, and the audience was laughing most of the way through. the jokes that stick out the most for me were the one at the very beginning and the one where the circus troop was running down the road in all those funny costumes. This was the oldest film I've ever watched, and the first silent film I've ever seen it's entirety. it's a very different experience from watching a 'talkie' and it does feel... well primitive, but it was a lot of fun. I really feel like this movie was enhanced by the laughing croud and the live music, it wouldn't have been nearly as fun to see alone. Great experience, would 100% do this again.

8/10

when will we talk about the willful helplessness epidemic on here. So many people on this god forsaken website demand to have any and all things that exist outside their personal experiences directly, personally pre-chewed and spoonfed to them. And when you do, they'll then ask for you to swallow for them, too, because, you see, in THEIR experience..,

#this is about people who show up in the replies asking shit that has already been answered in the replies #this is about people who show up in reblogs asking people to explain very obvious things to them that'd take one second of listening to #others' experiences to be aware of #For the love of god if you're presented with information or turns of ohrase that conflict with your personal experience don't just sit down #Consider that perhaps things unlike you exist and that things that are one way for you may be different for others #This isn't difficult you just need to stop centering yourself as the only point of reference you have #you're not. There is so much more than you out there. And you can hold it and know it #you just need to get the FUCK OVER YOURSELF #fucking christ #mumblr #problemnyatic thoughts
