neil gaiman had a spot specifically reserved for him his books in the corner of my bookshelf at my childhood home and i miss it everyday

#let’s see i had #good omens #american gods #stardust #neverwhere #OH i had this giant annotated american gods book #it was originally $50 but at barnes and noble they were having a 50% hardcover sale and i got it for $25 >:)#that couldn’t fit on my bookshelf #so it went on my bedside table #i also had the good omens tv script book #i will never forget how i bought my friend this most beautiful illustrated copy of the ocean at the end of the lane #and i wanted to keep it SO BAD #but it was her 18th birthday and i thought it was very poignant #but when i gave it to her #i saw her put it on her read next list #i cannot describe the drop in my chest as i saw her scroll through her phone to place at the bottom at no. 169 #she still has not read it #neil gaiman

people who act like aziraphale and crowley need to be men that fuck for good omens to be progressive need to get their head out of their ass. tell me how ur cis gay allo allo men are more progressive than having aroacespec non-binaries. tell me how its more progressive to make them have sex then to have some of the only asexual representation there is in media. tell me how its homophobic for crowley to kiss aziraphale in a desperate attempt to get him to stay just because they didnt do it with sex on the brain.

they've been sexless creatures since the book came out in 1990. get over it.

#“oh neil gaiman wont let them have sex because thats dirty”#“they have to be good gays that dont fuck”#or whatever the hell you guys are saying about how hes making them not have sex because he thinks gay sex is gross #or that hes scared of gay sex #mf READ AMERICAN GODS.#they dont have sex because they dont need to not because hes “scared” or whatever #“oh but they also dont need to eat and they do that!!” ok and???#there are plenty of things they dont need to do that they do anyway #and plenty of things they dont need to do that they dont #good omens #good omens 2 #good omens season 2 #good omens book #good omens spoilers #good omens tv #good omens crowley #good omens aziraphale #gomens #aziracrow #ineffable spouses #ineffable idiots #ineffable partners #ineffable wives #ineffable husbands #ineffable asexuals #asexual aziracrow #theyre also aromantic #source me #but thats for a different post #aziraphale x crowley

The nature of time is that (culturally) Christian Euro/Anglo colonial consumers (hereafter white ‘people’) fetishize the idea of being ‘close to nature’ or ‘primitive’ or ‘savage’ and latch on to the idea that there are groups of people in the world who are somehow bestial or who have some kind of special powers from holding animist beliefs/beliefs that acknowledge the body as opposed to the Christian belief that the body is a kind of useless appendage to a person. We see this across decades from the 19thC to today in the racist fetishization of indigenous people across the globe, particularly residents of the Americas, Australasia, and southern/eastern Africa.

White consumers use a warped conception of other cultures to live out the fantasies that the Christian soul/body stuff engenders. You keep getting told that your emotions and physical sensations are the devil’s work? You want to get in touch with those physical sensations, but you don’t want it to interfere with your worldview? Simply project them on to a convenient group of people with slightly different conventions from you. Imagine how cool it would be to be 100% physical sensation (especially those pesky violent and/or sexual urges) and no mental burden, then unleash that in a way that causes millions of deaths worldwide via the dehumanization of entire nations of people just trying to live their lives. White consumers love a Proud Warrior Race Guy.

Flash forward to the 2010s, it’s generally considered impolite to spread the same propaganda that justified the genocide and dispossession of many different groups of people. However white culture hasn’t changed that much and normal human activities still need to be explained away to maintain the veneer of white intellectualism that has been used to justify white violence for years and years. You can’t just stomp around and clap your hands and dance badly, you’ve got to project it somewhere else.

But wait! There’s a community of people considered ‘tribal’ and ‘savage’, considered violent and bestial, who were never colonized! It’s…the Norse. Fetishizing early medieval North Sea raiders can’t be cultural appropriation, see, they’re white! It’s not offensive to replace an entire culture with white (male) ideas of what’s cool if that culture is totally unassociated with colonizer stereotypes and is in fact a culture of colonizers!

And that’s my theory on why there are so many Norse-inspired folk bands/video games/tv shows/memes/literally anything in the 2010s. VSaga not counted because that manga has been running since 2003 and is actually well-researched and comes out of a culture with a similar but distinct tradition of racism. The Euro storytelling tendencies of needing some kind of violent avatar have taken on ye anciente Norseman now that people care a little bit about the gallons of blood used to sketch other ethnic stereotypes. Done and dusted. Except the other side is that the fetishization of early medieval Norse culture is literally just white supremacist 101 and a lot of artists don’t step around that nearly as carefully as they should

#it’s the old saw about rammstein being constantly talked up by American nazis because they can’t speak German and having to write a song #called ‘links 2 3 4’. asscreed/the northman/vikings tv/wardruna/god of war/whatever are fairly harmless cosplay activities #but taken together it’s like. where is the line between condescending cosplay fetishization (not great but whatever) and the sort of #idealization/valorization/historical erasure that plays into white supremacist rhetoric #after all—look at where we get a lot of pop culture viking imagery from: it’s Wagner #kelsey rambles #this is a long bad post about me having Spotify as blocked on my work computer and playing some faun and then letting the radio take away #praying and wikipedia-ing that it doesn’t take me to some dogshit nazi band along the way #which YouTube recs have done repeatedly. it’s a fucking cesspool out there in the metal/neofolk world #I also keep thinking back to Faun (neofolk forerunner) saying explicitly that they use central/south asian melodies and tonalities #the whole medieval folk aesthetic thing is a cobbled-together vibe that was created by 19thC romantics and 20thC fantasy writers #i just feel like there should be more of an…acknowledgement of artifice to ward off the nazis #I like neofolk music. I love vinland saga. I enjoy mountain scenery and stories of sea raiders.#would love to be able to enjoy it without looking over my shoulder all the time

y'know, i do think that actors are probably the closest that humans will ever get to a shapeshifter because sometimes i'll go through an actor's filmography and be totally taken aback by the sheer range of roles they've played and how violently dissimilar one role is from the other, so much so to the point that i'll literally forget that they played someone else and oh my god

#caroline talks #this is about me going from watching good omens to masters of sex btw #like i genuinely forgot that michael sheen has also played aziraphale #because even though YES same face and sometimes. in little flashes. the same expression #but also SO different that i literally forgot that wait aziraphale and bill masters is played by the same man. WHAT #i mean. it does also help that like. michael sheen's adopted some kind of american accent #and bill masters as a character is so . . . .#the real william masters leaves an incredibly sour taste in my mouth #but i watched the episode 'fight' and like. i was so. like. okay that was. ActingTM #because the entire episode is michael sheen and lizzy caplan's characters #talking about their sadder moments and it's like. all of that is said with zero music #the faint audio from the boxing match playing on a tv #but largely their voices. just quiet. and the emotions that flicker over their faces #and i was just. like. that was a truly breathtaking performance #where you are LITERALLY hanging onto every single word that the actors are saying #and you are hanging onto every single microexpression that passes across the actors' faces #and for two seconds you forget that they're characters and instead you feel like you're sitting in the hotel room with them #listening to someone you care about deeply (and you don't want to care about them but oh god you do!) spill their darkest secrets #and godddd that's. GGHGHGHUGHGH

"Before this moment, people in America did not conceive of what an alien spacecraft might look like. They did not believe an alien attack could happen. What made it real... was the fear that it could exist, and the fact that it was feared so deeply meant that it did exist."
