カワイイパラダイム

一昨日、「カワイイパラダイム」というセミナーに参加してきました。

大きくは「カワイイについて、いろいろとみんなで考えてみましょう。」というものでした。(ﾁｶﾞｯﾃｲﾀﾗ　ｽﾐﾏｾﾝ・・・)

内容の詳細は割愛しますが、とにかくとても勉強になった事は間違い有りません。

カワイイ　　　新しい自由

カワイイ文化　普遍性に埋め尽くされる世界に求める聖域

カワイイもの　その聖域に誘うもの

カワイイ　　　その聖域への扉を開ける呪文

なんて言う、大きくですがこんな表現もできるのかなぁ～と思いました＾＾;

簡単ですがこんな感じです。

今後は、カワイイが時代を支えるかも知れません。

I’m so weak for this scene because as much as Percy swoons over how pretty Annabeth is in his head, we very rarely get scenes where he actually tells her when he’s thinking that. I just think it’s nice when she gets to hear it.

If love makes a woman beautiful, what kind of medicine would it make?

Woe, Vylad be upon ye. I have a headcannon that he can play the ocarina and that's basically where this came from.

a brain busted lunacy letter to:

YOU AND UR VERY OWN HUMAN EYES- READING THIS RIGHT NOW

+ tumblr,

I need each and every one of you to pls hear me out: i want you to feel it too. Remember long form content? Alright, gather your tits. Let’s get into it. 😈 if you remember how to read … come down there and see it for yourself.

hey you little bag of flesh meat, cartridge, water and electricity… come closer i said… 🙂

I deeply find the tumblr space, as a whole, so vitally valuable to our current society. I, like all of you, have painstakingly enjoyed sifting, repurposing, creating, and displaying a woven unique tapestry… mine is currently over 10 years long. A historical virtual “scroll” 📜… Manila ironic in the worst way: the scroll 🤳🏾 that consumes us.

This isn’t MINDLESSLY scrolling… it feels like… peaking penetratingly into the minds of human beings through their own perceptions.

Every fucking photo, gif, text post, meme, story, song, collage, any and all of it … was put there purposely. Everything … means something to someone here. That’s … fucking incredible.

That’s … fucking human magic. 🪄 something no other social media platform can recreate in the world of TikTok’s, we remained tumblr.

Every single mf time I find a new blog or revisit a mutual’s blog… and I just burst with color and vibrance and wild wickedness and I … drift… loosing myself in the back of your brains, I’m saved.

I’m saved from my own brain, trauma, habits, hangups, mental health… I’m just safe.. tucked behind YOUR brain… and they always fucking feel JUST like mine… so thank you.

I love human beings so much and this is my MOST favorite way to experience them. I’m so fucking happy I haven’t been able to log back into my TIKTOK for months. This is the only place I want to be when I’m online.

The tumblr scroll is so much more healthy: i see these feeds as very distinct and endlessly versatile flip book of human ingenuity and stupidity and comradery and community stitched together to make a pattern that mirrors a portion of a person… can you imagine? IT’S FASCINATING! I mean I know It’s equally ugly here and often… yet outstandingly but overwhelmingly … this is a safe space for creators and the many fandoms we express and decompress with.

i remain almost speechless,on the brink of pure pleasure… on how absolutely embedded i am into all of your collective energy on this stupid little imperfectly perfect fucked up little platform.

Look at April Fool’s Day: Tumblr reminded us all.. to just exhale and have fun TOGETHER. Ugh. gut me gently with the sheer scale of talent and genius and curiosity and kindness and skill and silly and authentic and absurd and individual yet succinct creation of … art. Of feed art. 🖼️ the scale and silly of the creativity around that now HOLIDAY, was tremendous and stupid and clever and community and inclusive.

i hope to one day gain support in organizing and leading a team of experts to create a true con for us. i have experience in events and .. I care. 🧠🪄

tumblr… this … is one of my longest lasting relationships, and i cherish the time so very dearly. From screaming at porn bots to whispering to mutuals… I’m so grateful for all of it.

if two centipede girls were to hold hands and do yuri together, would they do so as shown in image A, or image B? the hearts represent the contact points between the two cents (or yuri points, if you will)

image A: classic yuri, single-hands style

image B: long yuri, multi-hands style

Centipede yuri:

vote for whichever style you think suits them better :>

fake poll because tumblr supports homophobia. but do not be afraid to make your voice heard

Dear @flightrising I wish that we would get heart shaped sunglasses for next valentines day, preferably in multiple shades

カワイイパラダイム２ に行ってきました。

今日新宿ＯＺＯＮＥで開催された「カワイイパラダイム２」に行ってきました。

第三部のトークセッションの後半で気になったキーワードとしては

・「自分への関係性の濃淡に関係があるのでは？」

・「個」なのかと「パブリック」なのか、またはその間に成り立つ関係性。

・「カワイイ」とは「発見的」ということを表す言葉。来た人に何かを気付かせる。

また総体的に、「デザインは誰のもの？」「デザインは誰のために？」という部分へも踏み込まざる得なくなっているニュアンスも出てきたかなぁと思いました。転じて「マーケティング」に似ている部分が多様にあるなぁとも感じました。

・帰り際真壁さんに少しだけご挨拶させていただくことができました。そのとき真壁さん曰く、「個とパブリックとの関係性を乗り越えたところに新しいパラダイムが存在するんじゃないかなぁ～」ともおっしゃってました。（私の表記に語弊がありましたら訂正お詫びいたします。）

最後に、今回はあまりに究明や定義づけするあまりに、別に「カワイイ」という言葉ではなくても良いのではとも少し思いました。

「誰のものでもないままに自分のものであることができる、または感じる」そんなところなのでしょうか。。。

建築というひとつの手法において。。。

なんだか「終りのない旅」「永遠のテーマ」みたいにも今回は少し映りました。

安易かも知れませんが、もう少し具体化され、グッドデザイン賞のようになると、おもしろいかも。なぁ～んても思いました。

以上ですキャップ＾＾

i have been thinking a lot about our service priorities in the public library where i work & the kinds of interactions we have with our patrons, those we want to encourage & those we don't, and as a result i have been reflecting on what it was like to work at the front desk of a library during the height of covid safety theater, when staff would clean the computers between each user. obviously this was a tedious nonsense task which made service slower for no good reason—we knew covid is airborne, but for political reasons were prevented from having any sort of mask policy—but the two interesting things about it now are that patrons on the whole believed us implicitly that it was a worthwhile practice and that many patrons were noticeably more rude and demanding to staff that they had seen cleaning. i think that experience, which, incidentally, sucked, points to some basic facts about customer service and the social value accorded to the necessary work of cleaning, both of which felt intensely gendered in context. it also clarified something for me about the mystique of librarianship; even though i was not a librarian at the time, as any library worker will tell you, patrons tend to assume that if you staff a service desk you are a librarian, and they project onto you assumptions about your knowledgeability, helpfulness, inclination to enforce rules, and so on, which are not always flattering (the 'shh!' stereotype, etc.) but do come with a strong middle-class association. patrons who had customer service or custodial jobs did not treat staff differently, except for the few who seemed bothered to see us cleaning, verbally sympathized, or offered to do it instead (nearly cried the first time this happened & would've given that patron the moon).

just puzzling it through

What do we think about this, guys?

What Annabeth said: you can start planning our two month anniversary now.

What Percy heard: you can start planning our wedding and 12 children now.

So funny seeing ppl mock me for falling behind in drabblecember bc the reason I feel behind is my creative energy has been focused on original stuff
