looking @ the notes on that ‘everyone needs to grow up’ article and i think the subtle point that a lot of the commentary on that post is missing is and what muva toni morrison was saying…..adulthood isn’t just ‘responsibility’—taking out ur trash and making ur bed—children can do those things…..adulthood is operating emotionally from an empowered place and not from the vulnerabilities and fears of ur childhood. to not get stuck in cynicism or escapism or to expect other adults to provide for u the way a parent should (which automatically disempowers u emotionally).

as we grow older, many of the very legitimate fears and self-protection mechanisms we developed to survive living under the brutal conditions we live under, worked for us as children, but they no longer serve us as adults. to be an adult is to cultivate urself, to understand what to keep and what to discard. it is an activity—a practice—a verb not a noun.

begging people (particularly fucking podcast ads i'm trying to skip through) to stop calling the groups behind real life conspiracies like the business plot or watergate "cabals"

"cabal" is derived from "kabbalah," aka jewish mysticism. the way it became a word for a secret conspiratorial group is a little complicated (it's to do with some 16th century english dudes' combined initials) but uhhhh i think there's a reason it stuck, culturally-speaking. and by "a reason" i mean antisemitism it's antisemitism please stop talking about cabals fucking hell

dramatic thriller biopics about like US military people or situations that the US had a part of they want to sensationalize on an individual level and are made to either empathize with someone despicable or to make their story interesting and multi-faceted skeeve me out they always make me feel like i should be on the lookout for whatever war crime the military is going to come out with within a month to 3 years after that cinematic release if you are genuinely interested in seeing Guy Noted as "Strutting Around" The Day They Bombed Hiroshima's 3 hour $100million budget Make Things Explode It's Cool movie you concern me and no I don't care that scarecrow from peaky blunders and his headlight eyes are there Nolan says "It's funny, I think there is an interesting relationship between the endings of Inception and Oppenheimer to be explored. Oppenheimer's got a complicated ending. Complicated feelings." Wow that sounds deep yeah the guy who brought us superman gets a dollar store disguise kit in post on his 6 hour greyscale dark ride can really grip me with the most elusive and mysterious yet incredibly poignant emotion known as "Complicated" You will never be avril lavigne we all know that the greatest legacy cillian murphy and christopher nolan will ever have is jonathan crane microwaves a pinwheel for 528,491 minutes and nolan didn't even write that it was a joint production of two cerebral and provocative creators with blogs named not-a-reindeer and panty-christ

microwaving a pinwheel and glorifying genocide that is their legacy yes

what is with the obsession with dragging black people into ur wack ass western imperialism discourse?????

womenintheirwebs

antiblackness and imperialism go hand in hand??? when european states and leaders created racial caste systems based on skin color—do u think they just left the countries with brown and black people alone???????? do u think they just left that racial caste system in their “colonies”???

what do guys think it means when we say antiblackness is a global phenomenon????????

ororomunroedontpullout

“Passport privilege” something many Black people cant unlock because of anti black racism putting barriers to getting a passport

i am swarmed so this isn't a coherent post but please don't support here lies love the musical as it comes to broadway. the entire show is historical propaganda that romanticizes the marcoses and makes imelda marcos, wife of dictator ferdinand marcos, the main character. there's so much things wrong with marcos, but to summarize, he declared martial law in the philippines 50 years ago, used his position as president to funnel billions of dollars to himself and his family, murdered and tortured thousands of activists, educators, politicians, etc. who opposed him, committed genocides against indigenous folks, and so much fucking more. i despise him and his family. what's worse is that marcos' son bong bong marcos is the current president of the philippines.

if this musical becomes highly-rated, i fear how much people are going to be miseducated. i'm scared of how much power this is going to give the marcoses now. most shitty politicians here are professionals at propaganda, vote buying, and disinformation that if this musical comes into play, i don't know how hard it would be to get leaders like marcos out.

even if the musical does talk about the cronyism of marcos during martial law, making imelda the main character and attempting to peer into her psyche is obviously still gonna make audiences sympathize for her! and i'm so fucking tired of everyone making imelda look like a fucking girlboss when she's part of the reason marcos did all he did! i'm so fucking tired of people attempting to humanize her or make "nuanced" takes on the marcoses WHEN THEY ARE STILL ALIVE AND IN POWER!!! if they rlly wanted to make a musical informing other abt martial law uhhh idk maybe make it in the perspective of those who fought against the marcoses?!?!?!?

please boycott the musical. please constantly shut down their attempts of celebrating their "inclusivity". insult them for all i care. i have no respect for people who don't want to acknowledge the thousands of people who died and were tortured under marcos. marcos has stunted the growth and development of the philippines and i will forever detest him for this.
