just found out that my favorite kpop youtuber that i had been following since 2022 until she disappeared off the face of the earth is in fact popular musical artist underscores
had a deeply strange camp miasma viewing experience. got glared at for laughing at “Thor the bi king”, got Looked At by someone else for noticing Louise Weard was Queer Assistant out loud to my friend during the credits, and was the only laugh at kris telling billy her pronouns
whenever i worry i haven’t got any better at not treating conversations like competitions i find speaking to my parents in person really helps to assuage any fears
had a dream id won a fan call with underscores which i was super nervous about because i don’t like interacting with celebrities and also knew we were both autistic enough to make the interaction even more awkward
i’ll be honest during the siren scene there was a moment where i thought the seals were the sirens and was ready to give the movie 5 stars because i was really taken by the concept and then i saw the actual accurate sirens
critical support to emily wilson’s thoughts abt the odyssey. homer does in fact manage to blend hero culture and negativity around war, so it IS a shame that nolan flattens it into just shame about war
@wetherspoonsgf tbf i do think nolan creates a functional and effective hero culture, but the dweeb in me wishes the film could’ve done something with odysseus realising that being a great warrior is good/fine/whatever but he also needs to relearn that there’s a time and a place for it
@wetherspoonsgf kinda sorta? i feel nolan creates a different impression of hero culture. when damon fights it’s framed as a necessary evil (suitors/trade routes) that can then be regretted. homer moves from “War(rior)s Are Sick/needed” to “but also incompatible with regular societal cohesion”
love love LOVE renting. reported the shower as leaking into the living room ceiling on thursday and was told this was an urgent! issue! so naturally i’ve heard no news and we can’t wash during a heatwave because it’s our only shower
