Tumblr already has a personalization algorithm it’s called my beloved mutuals who have great taste and only wish to psychologically damage me sometimes
They had not been seen together in the museum galleries for quite a while. Monet’s “Women with Umbrellas” are once again side by side in the Impressionist gallery.
AND THEN THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER THE END!!!!
ok every time this post comes by i resist geeking out on it but NO LONGER so these women are probably the same woman and that woman is monet’s wife camille doncieux. he painted her a LOT. but fun fact: monet had this asshole friend named ernest hochede, and ernest racked up some debts, and like an asshole he basically just fled the country, leaving his wife alice and their six kiddos behind. monet immediately got alice and kids to move in with him, camille, and their two kids. at this point, monet, alice, and camille became my favorite probably historic poly threesome. they lived together, taking care of the kids. they were so poor that alice and camille took turns wearing the nice dress so they could go out with monet. when camille got uterine cancer and began dying, alice helped monet cope and took care of things while he painted camille over and over. when camille died, alice is the reason monet was able to survive. when ernest finally died, monet and alice married, and remained married until alice died. at that point, blanche, the oldest daughter, took care of monet until he died. anyway, the point is, the umbrella ladies are probably the same ladies, but as far as i’m concerned, there WAS a historically queer poly family in that household and they were wonderful.
If I’d been told how gay art history was I would’ve paid much more attention college.
Funnily enough they let out this gay little detail when I learned about Monet in art uni
celebrities will really be like “i am non-binary” and people will just ignore it
gerard way will literally be like “i used to dress in women’s clothes at school and i really enjoyed it” “i don’t really identify with masculinity and i have considered myself to be a trans girl” “this self-insert character i created and portrayed in a series of music videos is a non-binary lesbian” and people will just be like “oh yeah gerard is a man, he’s male. definitely of a masculine gender”
janelle monae has come out as non-binary, publicly, in magazine interviews, TWICE now and ppl are like oh yeah! janelle is a woman. she’s female. 100% womyn
BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG WILL LITERALLY WRITE A SONG ABOUT HOW HES BEEN CROSSDRESSING FROM A VERY YOUNG AGE AND WEAR THONGS ON STAGE AND SOMEONE WROTE “BILLIE JOE IS ACTUALLY A CUTE YOUNG LESBIAN” ON HIS ASS ONE TIME AND PEOPLE WILL BE LIKE WOW THAT SURE IS A MALE DAD
Suzy Eddie Izzard will state time and again that she’s genderfluid and half y'all will say she’s a trans woman while the other half still insist she’s a man.
sex is fun but it isn’t sacred which is part of why we even fight for bodily autonomy and privacy in the bedroom. one night stands and quickies and casual sex are all morally neutral. to mythologize sex as the ultimate intimacy through which people eternally connect is ridiculous and serves only to empower the christofascist regime which uses sex and intimacy as simultaneous weapons of oppression and beneficiary incentives for everyone to stay in line with the status quo.
sex is fun and it feels good and there is nothing wrong with having sex. at the same time sex is nothing particularly special or great either. It’s just another thing humans are capable of. we give the concept of sex too much power tbqh.
With the announcement of the Harry Potter TV series, you will be made aware of the people in your social circle who are excited about it.
Now is a good time to stop knowing them.
The play here is fairly blatant.
Hire new 12 year olds that haven’t condemned JK Rowling’s horrendous views
Aggressively condemn the inevitable people who say shit about said 12 year olds online to take the moral high ground
Turn it into a show that people hate watch for maximum revenue
Friendly reminder that JK Rowling is the executive producer for this show. So in addition to benefiting monetarily from its very existence, she will be an active participant in creating its narrative. I won’t be watching it and I encourage everyone else to ignore its existence as well.
Being a weird little girl as a kid provides two options to you: becoming transgender or becoming a weird adult woman. Both of which are things the world needs more of
I always hate it when people are all “so do you go to school, or are
you working, or” and I either have to
make up some lie, or
eventually get
around to “I am not working because of depression/anxiety,” and
subsequently have to deal with whatever bullshit-riddled and completely
unsolicited opinions on mental illness this stranger feels obligated to
share with me.
So my therapist was like, “You don’t have to do either.
You can just say you haven’t worked in a while because you’re recovering
from an illness.”
I tried it when the home inspector was here today, and it fucking worked.
He was like, “oh, I’m sorry, are you doing better now,” and I’m like
yeah, and don’t worry, it’s not contagious, awkward laugh, and we moved
on.
MY THERAPIST. IS A GENIUS. Because it is an
illness, so it’s not a lie to say that, and it’s also none of his
business to know specifically what it is, and I clearly don’t want to
give more details, so we should move on from this topic. MYTHERAPIST IS A GODDAMN GENIUS.
Dude I needed this. I never know what to say when people ask if I work because I’m severely disabled and don’t work.
REBLOG TO SAVE A LIFE HOLY SHIT
To add, this works on job interviews too. I once had to answer the ‘so whats up with this gap of 8 months in your resume where you were unemployed?” and I just said I had suffered an illness and I needed time to recover.
It’s easy enough, not a lie, and puts them on edge enough that they usually don’t go digging.
“aborted fetuses are not technically lives and it’s harmful and not medically accurate to refer to them that way” and “people who have early miscarriages of wanted pregnancies are still allowed to grieve and consider them their child” are two statements that can and should coexist
in case you wondering what twitters like rn the answer is “not good”
i just bust out laughing
I just want to point out that even the most generous estimates of Elon’s net worth are around 200 billion these days. If this lawsuit he’s trying to hide succeeds, he is actually, finally, 100% finished. He’ll have to sell off much of his stakes in businesses, including yes twitter, and probably file for bankruptcy. And he’s already obliterated all trust in him, so it’s unlikely he’d be able to climb back up the ladder.
So he’s hiding this lawsuit in hopes that he can recover his image a little before that all goes down. Don’t let him. Keep posting about his ineptitude. He will fall.
