my mom didn't believe in lying to children so when I first asked about santa claus as a small child she was like "oh santa claus is another name for a man named saint nicholas who lived a long time ago. he was a very kind and generous man and he loved giving people presents and he would do things like put presents in people's stockings when they were hung up to dry by the fire, so they would find them and be surprised. so now when we give presents at christmas it's fun to pretend saint nicholas or 'santa claus' brings them. and we hang up stockings by the fire and when we get up in the morning there are presents in them, just like if saint nicholas was still alive to bring them!"

so that thanksgiving one of my uncles said jovially "so mac, are you being good for santa claus?" and little (not quite three year old) mac looked up and raised an eyebrow and said witheringly "he's dead."

#literally same #except my mom just straight up said he’s not real 😭 #didn’t even tell me the cute little saint nicholas backstory

No, I do not feel bad for glorified bullies making 6 figures losing their jobs after they participated in a years-long gaslighting and propaganda campaign that destroyed thousands of people's livelihoods while flouting each and every restriction they supported. Not at all.

#dont even know who this is about but yeah

I have a deep distaste for the way people treat small-time TV writers and actors the exact same as big-time Hollywood celebrities with Bezos-level riches.

I'm acquaintances with a few different TV writers & VAs who have to have side hustles in order to pay rent, and watching them get treated the same as rich Marvel actors is fucking bullshit.

It's like people see "works in television" and completely lose all sense of class consciousness.

Film & TV are brought to you by a much, much, much bigger group of people than just the headline household-name celebrities. And almost all of them are underpaid and overworked.

Getting this off my chest, but I worked in a small museum at my job and we had a display about the indigenous people who lived in the area. I was asked twice what they were called (the display was directly in front of them when they asked), and twice I referred to them in the present tense and stated that they still live in the area, and TWICE my information was retold in the PAST TENSE and everything else ignored.

Only once did a random guy who gave off weird vibes at first ask if we had any books about the native people because he could not find any anywhere and really wanted to learn and support them. Went out of our way to jot down titles written by members of the tribe, and he was so sweetly grateful.

People really do just default to "I miss the natives. Sometimes, it's like I can still hear their voices" when they are literally still here

love how when i get a new interest, i’m like “oh god it’s happening again” and i’m stuck like that for about a week until everything explodes and any interest i’ve had prior is completely dwarfed for an unknown amount of time
