My phone charger stopped working a month ago, and so I had the misfortune of having to buy a new one. It doesn't have a headphone port. I wasn't even considering the POSSIBILITY of a phone not having a headphone port, so now I have to go to settings and activate OTG everytime I want to use headphones, because I believe Bluetooth is demonic witchcraft and refuse to participate in that debauchery.

Just so blatantly evil when they took the headphone port out of the phones to force people into getting Bluetooth earbuds like we let them do that to us and no one was jailed or murdered for it? What is wrong with us

I just wanted to come on up here and explain that I am in fact still on Tumblr, just really busy these days.

Enjoy my favorite Gravity Falls artist.

Stay yourself, stay curious.

Sorry for spamming your notifications in the last like 20 mins— absolutely love your art and am eating it up yes. 💖 Also could I request either more Bill and freak (maybe something to do with more hands cuz OUGGHH so good) or angsty Fiddauthor like Ford trying not to cry as he’s making himself watch Fidds get married to Emma-May? 👀 Maybe even at the reception after when they’re dancing and Ford’s getting drunk af and clearly emotional/lashing out in frustration. If not it’s perfectly okay and tysm for even reading. Have a good day/night! <3

ILYSM Thank you <3 these are all such good ideas I'm drawing all of them

Some wedding night shenanigans for now

I thought about this because I've seen a lot of fandomised (???) artworks of AM in human form from I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream...

Seeing people swoon over Lilith in the hazbin hotel fandom is a tad weird because they don't really portray her story right... She did try to be on top (literally and figuratively) of Adam, but she wasn't banished to hell... SHE RAPES BABIES. YEAH. Eight day old male babies? That's her type. Jewish people circumcize their boys so that Lilith won't rape them.

You all should read a bible.

Unpopular opinion - saltburn is a lesser version of the talented Mr Ripley.

I watched the latter in October 2023 absolutely adoring it, and seeing saltburn now is... Disappointing. A bit. It's a good film! Just clearly had TTMR in mind when shot and written.

IM MAD AND NEED TO TALK

There is this chain of Malabi (image below, it's a dessert) called "HaMalabia" which has a stamping card. Every 7 Malabis you get a free one,every 24 Malabis you get a pair of socks. Yesterday I finally stamped my 28th Malabi, and apparently the chain is out of socks for the last year??? I just paid for 25 Malabis and got no socks :(

Has anyone encountered the phenomenon of people pretending to read?

I was chatting with a girl and we were speaking about Kafka. She claimed to really love his work and even that she visited his residence in Prague, yet when I asked what she read she said she hadn't read his stories yet... Is that common?

I FUCKING HATE MEN!!!!!! I HATE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHUT UP!!!!!!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK!

Idk I think Job's wife really went off when she told him to curse God and die. It's interesting how there's no oxygen for her suffering in the narrative. She lost her children too. She lost her home too. Her health was taken from her too. Everything she had was stripped away by God. And yet there's no compassion for her. Not in the narrative nor in the commentaries or the sermons. She isn't even named.

AS A PERSON MAJORING IN THE OLD TESTAMENT --

This is a really good observation! Haven't thought of it myself but it makes sense. Eve is also blamed throughout Genesis for the original sin heavily, whole people don't take into account Adam's autonomy in consuming the fruit. I actually think their roles are opposite - Camilla resembles Adam way more than Eve and Charles is similar to Eve. Charles is way more vocal and active in the group's activities while Camilla is very much a part of the bacchanal and such but is more reserved and manipulative. Camilla is also hinted to blame Charles behind his back to Henry for multitudes of things, which correspondences with Adam blaming Eve for the original sin.

Sorry if my English is rusty, I read Genesis in Hebrew so maybe my texts are different from the translations.

reading some philosophy today and…

Bruh—am I stupid, did everyone catch this or am I smart? Idfk, but…Charles  and Camilla… prettttyyy sure they’re symbolic of Adam and Eve. The orphaned—“parentless”—incestuous twins makes sense now. Thanks philosophy and religious studies.

(Eve is made from the rib of Adam=sort of like the “twin of him”. Explains some of her nature too.)

Hi there, I bought a doc martens addina flower buckle a few weeks ago and it hurts to walk in them - my toes feel cramped. It's it normal? What should I do? I already went to a cobbler...

War thoughts

A person in my life was taken hostage some time ago. He was at a family dinner. through exchange he has returned, but it's such an adsurd scenario. I can see the trauma on his face. I can see the looks people give him, how before he was anonymous and how he can never return to that anonymity so many of us take for granted. I can see how I've grown close to him, when before he was just a name, A face in the corridor, a smile at the end of the day, not at me, but at the people who know him.

BLACK SWAN - THE UNREWARDING CHASE AFTER PERFECTION

Tw: bulimia, self-harm, sexual assault, body horror

''Black swan'', directed by Darren Aronofsky, is a 2010 film. It deals with our main character, Nina, a ballerina which gets picked for the role of both The white swan and The black swan in a production of "Swan lake", but as she is urged by her artistic director to 'lose herself' her sanity crumbles before her. In this post I'd like to address the themes, motifs, character development, and what black swan made me feel, because I find art is about emotions.

★ SWAN LAKE ANALOGY

The story of "Swan lake" is a direct analogy most readers can pick up on during their watch of Black swan and I'd like to highlight some thoughts of mine on the parallels between the two.

" virginal girl, pure and sweet, trapped

in the body of a swan. She desires

freedom, but only true love can

break the spell. Her wish was

granted in the form of a prince.

But before he can declare his love,

her lustful twin, the Black Swan,

tricks and seduces him.

Devastated, the White Swan leaps

off a cliff, killing herself. But,

in death, finds freedom. " - Leroy

This recounting of "Swan lake" is a basic synopsis of the movie Black swan. Nina is perfect, and she finds this need for perfection a prison. We see her eat half a fruit for breakfast, spend all her time in the company, and put mountains of effort into every step she takes. This is exactly Nina's downfall - if Leroy was right about one thing it's that perfection is inherently imperfect. It's messy and dirty and full of mistakes, because perfect is expected.

Nina believes her 'freedom' will come in the form of Leroy, that he can cultivate her into the girl she was destined to be, and sees Lily as her doppelganger - an evil xerox who wishes to steal her only answer away from her. Nina is mistaken, and actually her mistake falls perfectly into the plot of Swan lake - she mixes up the roles. Lily is much closer to the prince in the sense she allows Nina to be herself. She genuinely desires to see Nina succeed and yet doesn't believe that Nina should torture herself to perfection. Although it's difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion during the film, when the credits roll, I think we all know who's the twin, who's the swan, and who's the prince.

★ THE THEORY OF ART

Nietzche (😒...) Coined the terms 'dyonisian' and 'apollonian' in his book, Birth Of Tragedy. The Dyonisian is the tendency for freedom - pleasure, lack of thinking, impulse. The Apollonian is the tendency for structure - order, planning, perfecting. Nietzche claims that good art is the balance between the two, you can't be overly obsessive over detail nor carelessly creating.

Nina is Apollonian. She is so invested in being the perfect dancer she loses what made her good in the first place - her love for the profession, her daintiness, her emotional connection to pieces. Throughout the movie, we see how obsessive Nina becomes with perfection as her bulimia gets worse, she grows suspicious of her peers, and eventually resorts (does she...?) to murder for her sake. Truly, Nina couldn't balance art because she couldn't let herself go, and only when she did her performance was perfect.

Black swan made me unnerved. As an artist, it's truly an enthralling experience seeing a young woman shred herself to bits trying to be perfect. I almost cried when Nina forced herself to puke the nothing she ate, because it's an amazing metaphor; trying to use up something that is not there. I think about black swan from time to time, and I realize that Nina isn't perfect - she was. She was her best when she loved dance. When she lived living . When she loved herself.
