[newyorkthegoldenage]

Fidel Castro visited New York for the third time in April of 1959. At the Bronx Zoo, he devoured a hot dog, fed elephants, and poked his hand into a tiger's cage.

being a nerd is getting ridiculously excited by finding academic papers in my leisure time

even better when they're available for free

#.when i say writer • designer • nerd i FCKIN mean it lmao #.and yes yes i know authors deserve to get paid for their research but the entirety of academia in capitalism needs to be dismantled #.for anything to be actually fair/equitable #.anyway happy belated new year and first post of 2024 i guess 😅😅 #jercy speaks #actual blogging #.ftr i'm looking up papers on tiger p-243 LOL #studyblr #studyspo #academia

I'm still reeling from and thinking so hard about the “You can do things without me! …You’re so good at it” from Chess to Kate because on one hand I can assume what it means but also what does that mean???!?

#kate clearly doesn't want chess to leave and has her capital i Issues with that #but the idea she's so strikingly independent other times makes sense given her nature but also?? contrasts everything we see in the show #like kate is very much independent in the second act but with chess as well? it's hard to imagine #i love my theatre appreciation class it means i can think more about scripts. unfortunately none of them are watt but whatever whatever #i'm just like this normally anyways #we are the tigers #kate we are the tigers #chess we are the tigers #no one talks about this and it's probably because they're normal and i look into things too hard that may or may not mean anything LOL

i make this post like every other day but sweet jesus illustrating freelance for a living is by far the best most priviledged case scenario for someone like me (undocumented, uneducated, unbelievably mentally unwell) and yet every day of my life i have to suck it up and accept that making art for a living has completely siphoned off the joy out of drawing, my lifelong companion that made life meaningful in a terribly hostile home enviorement. and now i have to listen to [redacted] from r@ndompenguinhouse send me Notes that keep making this ~queer YA~ novel cover progressively more boring

I would be so comically bad at living in Skyrim. It snowed several inches and I'm already longing to be in bed under a pile of blankets (and cats.)

#i just hurt all over and want to crawl into a hot bath and live there until spring #my limited tolerance of participation in capitalism is hanging by a thread #i am reverting to being a cranky toddler #and this is *just* the snow not the giant spiders and bandits and sabre tooth tigers etc etc

Google, how do I stop feeling guilt, shame, and impending doom every time I need to take a sick day :3

#bleats #chronically ill #permashifting #we need to fucking burn capitalism to the ground man #I deserve a break!! #I shouldn’t feel like I’m running from tigers when I wanna take a break!!!!! #I shouldn’t feel like I’m in danger and I shouldn’t feel guilt for needing breaks bro #I’m a spoonie/autistic/adhd bro I wasn’t made for this lol #anyways permashifters I love y’all y’all are valid #don’t let anyone stop u ok just don’t hurt yourself or others ok lov u

I understand what your saying, it's just that I have 0 sympathy (let alone empathy) for Homelander's grown ass. Also, Homelander is fictional. Finn from star wars went through hell and he managed to leave.

i understand that from a place that you might not like in all honesty.

have you considered that maybe part of why you feel that way is because... society taught you to feel that way?

finn is a different person from homelander with a different situation from him. yes, different. because finn *at least* had a *catalyst* or epiphany of some kind required to recognize and then *move* on or forward from his situation. homelander *has not*, and to some degree it is doubtful he will get that.

and to be the bearer of bad news yet again, generally? that's not necessarily a *realistic* take on abusive situations and correlates *directly* with survivor's bias.

this is super duper important to remember. just because *such and such could do it*, does not mean *oh well this guy can too*. it just doesn't. that's why the word *survivor* exists.

and as of yet, homelander is not quite a survivor, but he *is* still a victim...

even worse that society perpetually uses survivor's bias *against* victims but that's not okay either. one or two people surviving and getting out of a situation doesn't mean we suddenly stop feeling or caring for victims still stuck in the same situation, could you imagine???

honestly, idk HOW the world manages to function with bullshit like this, but picture this.

two planes going down heading towards the ocean full of people.

survivor's bias creating a lack of empathy is like one plane suddenly fixing their problems and no longer being in trouble, and because *that* plane fixed its issues, the other which mind you is *STILL GOING DOWN AND IN MAJOR TROUBLE* is just expected to *magically* correct course and no longer be in trouble, and if it doesn't well fuck all those people who are about to die--

when WHAT THE FUCK!?!? that's not how life fucking works!!!

and yet this is the bullshit CAPITALISM especially super promotes. because one billionaire is clearly worth far more than a billion poor people and deserves his wealth WAY more than the homeless or hungry for... reasons i guess.

*in capitalism, a majority of people *MUST* FAIL in order for a select few to *super succeed* and benefit, so OF COURSE *survivor's bias* would be heavily promoted to keep the idea popular among those suffering. we all think "well if *I* could be that ONE..." except, statistically, the likelihood of that is slim to fucking nothing! this ideology does not remain exclusive to financial situations, it *translates* to other parts of society and *destroys* healthy thinking*

and to a degree i get it, empathy is not an easy thing to feel. i know some forms of neurodivergence cause difficulty with this. for me, it's this too, except when i'm not the densest motherfucker on the planet, i *can't* turn the setting fucking off, even if i wanted to (and it is hella overloading, overwhelming, and exhausting).

i can't *not* feel it, even for (and especially for well written) fictional characters, even for real people i might not want to admit deserve it, or even if i don't think they deserve it, sometimes *especially* if i don't think they deserve it.

very very very very rarely does it just... 'check out'. it is a genuine problem.

but understanding the human psyche to the fullest extent is *how* we *break* these cycles of abuse, repair the damage, and prevent it from happening further. and that requires *empathy* in every single sense we can possibly bring it forth.

the reason creative people bother creating shit like the boys isn't just to entertain, it's because good artists tend to *see* the problems in society and in turn often want to help *amend* them by teaching lessons with their creative works.

if we as a society want to improve and change and get better in reality, we'd do well to start listening and noticing in fiction.

good fucking GAWD if i have to see more and more of the white tiger situation from humanity--

listen. humans are fucking STUPID.

we hunt white tigers to near extinction. inbreed them to high hell which causes a shit ton of problems while fucking up their genes. AND THEN PROCEED BLAME THEM FOR THE PROBLEMS AND GENES WE FUCKED UP AND CAUSED INSTEAD OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR OWN ACTIONS--

the gene that makes them white is actually a harmless genetic variant that is the same gene that makes a chicken white. it is with no doubt the HUMANS that fucked up the white tiger gene pool. but let me put this in a different sorta place or perspective.

WE made homelander.

we all played a part, because we're all part of a society, we enabled and allowed him happen, the abuse to occur, and then his abuse to persist, and if we feel *nothing*, truly *nothing* for this THING that SOCIETY created when WE ARE PART OF IT.

we. are. just. as. fucking. GUILTY.

and we should... really take some fucking accountability for that hot mess... least that's how i see it. can't *not* see it.

I am really looking forward to/hoping to see a LOT of things in the second half of T&B2 and in later seasons but one of the things I am most interested in that I haven't really seen people talk about much is the character of Thomas' sister, Ruby. The fact that she even exists as a character and they not only bring her up but also mention that they don't know where she currently is definitely makes me think that she'll be more relevant later on and possibly have an important role to play in the story. I'm also curious to see if she ever developed NEXT abilities, seeing as her brother is a NEXT and the last time we saw her she was only 7 years old. If she is then that probably had an impact on where she ended up. Maybe she's in danger? Maybe she'll be a villain? Maybe she's with Ouroboros??? Depending on her situation it's also entirely plausible that she knows where her brother is because there is a hero on TV with the same name and power. What do you think is up with her? Personally I am hoping that she is a NEXT and I honestly think it would be really cool if she ended up with Ouroboros or something (kind of like how Mugan and Fugan were adopted in) and is an antagonist and will have to fight Thomas but it will turn out alright and they'll be reunited or something. Idk I'm unnecessarily fascinated with her character regardless of the direction the show takes her in.

Musk blaming Twitter revenue drop on “activists” is so funny also really indicative of the way right wingers think. When random right wing people complain about shit they don’t like that’s free speech but when lefty people do it it’s automatically activism

#no one is doing concerted activism about Twitter they are just complaining #also welcome to capitalism that’s how it works! #i never thought the face eating tigers would eat my face

Sometimes I feel like I keep having to prove my age. “No really, I really am 29. I really did start college 10 years ago (just…couldn’t finish). No I’m Not actually 15-21. YES really. It’s okay to talk to me. (But please don’t ask me what I’m doing instead of what I like to do…it’s a sore subject I can’t find a Small Talk TM response to. Especially with my age. Legit health shit has taken SOME of the embarrassment out of this…but that’s it’s own set of landmines. Can we please talk about you instead??)”

#tiger’s musings #socializing crap #baby face #aaaaand then prolly ‘cause of the connective tissue disorder…I have MASSIVE dimples that make me feel like a gargoyle #not age wrinkles forming. but huuuuge folds of skin on a thin face making ridges #because…stretchy skin. yeah. I feel like that snake in that one webcomic trying to Yawn Cute #and…it’s most obvious if I’m delighted or teasing. #…why can’t I just have smile lines. #but…yeah. I almost can’t complain I never have any decent adults act friendly or flirt in a way that’s Not Creepy #when even YOUNG children forget that I’m ‘not a kid’ #(ooooor it’s some fertility culture or ‘wants an Exotic TM girlfriend’ asshole. for fuck’s sake… #(yes I’d rather be harassed than an actual teenager or ethnic/racial minority. but it’s still deeply uncomfortable) #…there may be SOME progress with ‘YES I’m a late 20s ADULT prioritizing FRIENDSHIP I am SAFE’ #but also…it is irritating to have questions about something 10 yrs ago instead of what I like to do NOW #or that it took a year to be spoken to. and going pspspspsps! for a quarter of that because Enough. #…the ONLY time I /almost/ don’t mind someone assuming I’m nearly half my actual age #is when I’m out in public with my parents around strangers #despite it’s becoming more common for MY gen to still live with fam because late capitalism vs merican social values #buuuuuuuuut yeahhhhh… still living with family past 25 is still treated as Shameful as a cultural norm
