So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)

the most #UselessLesbian thing i have ever done was when i was trying to figure out if this girl liked me or not, just constantly arguing with myself about it, and after a couple, uh, months, of this, i was like, “god i wish i could just like… go to court and lay out all this evidence and have a couple lawyers argue over the TRUE MEANING of her text messages, and then a judge tells me if she likes me or not.” and then the proverbial lightbulb went off over my proverbial head, and i dug into my mock trial folder from high school and found the trial guidelines and i wrote out an entire trial transcript featuring a plaintiff (me), my attorney (my wildest hopes and dreams), a defense attorney (my worst fears and insecurities), and a judge (my desperate attempt at rationality). the final product was several thousand words long. it clarified nothing. at any point in this process did it occur to me to ask her how she felt about me? absolutely not. did i ever stop and think, “hey, maybe i should tell her that i like her?” absolutely not. that’s for people who take risks and i don’t take risks i take myself to court in my own head.

that one post about the christian homophobe who loved utena “aside from all that gay shit” is really funny but i do actually see a quite common sentiment being repeated by casual viewers which is that it’s a great show “aside from all that incest” and like. okay yeah i can get finding depictions of incest uncomfortable in a way that is far less excusable wrt like. lesbians, but if you’re not engaging with the incest in rgu by acknowledging how it functions in the narrative and what its purpose is thematically then there is simply a massive lacuna missing from your ultimate interpretation of this show, because incest is in fact crucial to this narrative and eschewing it for your comfort means you’ve missed the point.

it’s giving “i’m gonna act like nanami never drowned that cat because she’s a good character and i like her otherwise” (another take i’ve seen). and just. NO!!!!! sit with that discomfort!!!!! allow the horrors and grotesque implications of what you have just witnessed linger, interrogate your own emotional response, the gut feelings of abjection and disgust, dissect those implications. the incest isn’t an accident, or an unfortunate addition to an otherwise great piece of art. it’s crucial to the fabric of this very deliberately woven tapestry. and you have a moral and intellectual obligation to recognize that, to acknowledge the extent of the violence that is being presented and critiqued, both in how it is facilitated and what logic enables its systems of exploitation and abuse. you cannot avert your eyes from anthy’s haunted gaze.

guy who's stuck in a timeloop for so long he stops wanting to leave it. guy who started out trying to escape but slowly grew used to and became comforted by the familiarity of the repeating day. guy who is no longer who he was before the timeloop. guy who is offered a way out and violently refuses it because he can't leave, doesn't want to leave. guy who escapes the timeloop by chance or force or accident and doesn't know how to live anymore. guy who keeps going through motions that don't match the situation and keeps having conversations that aren't actually occurring. guy who panics every time he realizes he can't predict the next instant. guy who left the timeloop but still lives with it.

I don’t really Go Here but u can always rely on this man to read a right wing politician’s outfit for filth

No? Why? When he that is my husband now Came to me as I followed Henry's corse, When scarce the blood was well washed from his hands Which issued from my other angel husband And that dear saint which then I weeping followed — O, when, I say, I looked on Richard's face, This was my wish: be thou, quoth I, accursed For making me, so young, so old a widow; And, when thou wedd'st, let sorrow haunt thy bed; And be thy wife, if any be so mad, More miserable by the life of thee Than thou hast made me by my dear lord's death. Lo, ere I can repeat this curse again, Within so small a time my woman's heart Grossly grew captive to his honey words And proved the subject of mine own soul's curse, Which hitherto hath held (my) eyes from rest, For never yet one hour in his bed Did I enjoy the golden dew of sleep, But with his timorous dreams was still awaked. Besides, he hates me for my father Warwick, And will, no doubt, shortly be rid of me.
