Socmed discussions about Saltburn, to me —

1) reveal that people are even more squeamish about explicit gay sexuality than they think they are

(And if this is what passes for shocking erotic excess, then we, in the anglosphere, are in a more — not making a comment about individuals here — restrained moment with mainstream American/British adult cinema than we were with mainstream adult heterosexual cinema in the 90s, eg the erotic thriller)

And

2) suggest people are increasingly making art that is in conversation with, if not explicitly nostalgic for, the 2010-16 Tumblr-era.

(I really truly suspect Saltburn is, in part, an adaptation of the tropes and aesthetics that were in certain “The Social Network” fan spaces.)

#Saltburn is a period piece of this very specific very Anglophile tumblr moment #that specifically was obsessed with poshness and the upper class (usually more or less aristocratic) of the UK #much of the tumblr cultural backlash to that moment (eg the British accent jokes now; the food jokes)#is just USAmericans getting embarrassed over having prostrated themselves at the uncaring altar of British old money #and in response to that embarrassment these USAmericans I guess just started shitting on poor British class signifiers (eg usually a lot of #the mockery is about northerners esp northern women)#which is really just a continuation of tasteless American passes at being ‘above’ the poor brits they’re mocking to align with the landed #and titled of the UK #which lol they hate you just like they hate the poor British!! silly silly silly attempt to appear worldly #and to be clear my comments are about a specific kind of American-Brit beef between white tumblr users #and none of the conversation is meaningfully about British colonialism or American cultural or literal imperialism #or even about anglocenticism in general #j realize this a lot to write about something that can be boiled down to : specious and inane comments r being made by the stupidest of the #site from the imperial core of the world #and it’s usually between users who have no fucking business making class jokes #because critically the experiences they’re mocking are so removed from any struggle for survival they’ve had — on both the USA and UK side

#god im finally finished #you would not believe how long this took. and im not even happy with it #i definitely need to practice painting more #anyways alternative titles for this were “artificial heaven” “false gods worship” and “divinity of the machine”#ended up using the simplest one lmao #based off the idea of an imperfect god... like what happened to the god in uk? imperfect #just like a human. just like an angel #maybe machines are the closest to “perfection”. ones that follow an objective without hesitation #...this is going closer and closer to a free will philosophy argument so imma stop here #fun fact this file is called “homoerotic tension”#ultrakill #v1 #gabriel #gabv1el #just a lil suggestive?#k-art

The thing about searching for flights on British Airways is that they do legitimately offer "Baron/Baroness" or "Viscount/Viscountess" as title options for your personal information.

#hilary for ts #FLY WITH THE PEASANTS JEEVES?#WHY YOU MUST BE JOKING #either that or anything above a baron gets private jets while the lowly Barons must fly with the unwashed masses #they also had 'Professor Doctor Reverend' as a title option for the conference booking #the uk is not a real country

SIX SENTENCE SUNDAY

Me? Starting a new fic? It’s more likely than you think 🤭 also this is fully not at all 6 sentences but I wanted to share this whole interaction so. You’re welcome for the bonus content. (I did 6 short paragraphs though so it’s still 6 something <3)

~~~~~~

Dame groaned, head falling to the side to rest on Tia’s shoulder. “You know I adore Hannah but do we have to? I wanted a night for just us.” Dame looked up at her through dark lashes as best as she could without moving her head.

Tia laughed, shifting to put her plate on the counter so she could card her fingers through Dame’s soft blonde tresses. “We’re roommates, Dada. Every night is just for us.”

Dame just pouted, nuzzling closer and saying nothing.

“We have to at least make an appearance, okay? She's been my friend since uni. Besides, we’re in charge of bringing the cake.”

Dame let out a long-suffering sigh and made a show of standing back up straight. “Fine, but just you wait and see if I give you any evening cuddles.” She stuck out her tongue. Tia rolled her eyes but her own smile widened.

“Threats don’t work if I already know you won’t follow through,” Tia retorted, blowing her a kiss and picking her plate back up.

Harriet Williamson (April 29, 2023). "Trans-inclusive cervical cancer campaign defies anti-LGBTQ+ hate: ‘We deserve to be screened.’" PinkNews. https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/04/29/cervical-cancer-screening-smear-test-lgbtq-inclusive-remove-the-doubt/

Update: This news article is about a campaign for cervical cancer screening, called Remove The Doubt. The UK charity running the campaign was called Live Through This. Later, the charity changed its name to OUTpatients, so the campaign moved to their new site. Since then, you can visit the Remove The Doubt site here, which explains to anyone who has a cervix what they need to know about cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccines.

#cervical cancer #trans men #trans masculine #FTM #cisgender women #AFAB #HPV #transgender health #transgender #UK #HPV vaccine #sexually transmitted infections #relevant for transgender men and trans masculine nonbinary people and others on the female to male spectrum #relevant for cisgender women and transgender men and others who were assigned female at birth #queue #cancer #pelvic exam #vaccine #i'm not sure why the link displays with a different title than the article... i didn't do that

"37% of Incidents" is so vague I love it. Obsessed with the fact that "Incidents" is capitalised as well. The drama!

IMAGE ID: screenshot of a YouTube video entitled 'The Office of Incident Assessment and Response is Recruiting' posted by 'The Office of Incident Assessment and Response'. The video is paused on a shot of stock footage of pedestrians in a street, overlayed with the words '37% of Incidents in the U.K. go unreported'.

#hey bestie what the fuck does this mean #what kind of incidents #what are you talking about #how would you even know this statistic #it's so funny #37% of incidents in the uk go unreported #calling it now i will be using that as the title of a fanfic in the future #tmagp arg #tmagp #my posts

This quote, it turns out, is from a Priti-Patel appointed 'counter-extremism commisioner' from the Heritage Foundation. He says pro-Palestinian protests should be banned. From the BBC.

#uk politics #the title is in reference to pro-Palestinian protests every weekend
