Kristen Chang’s quote “Godhood is just like girlhood: a begging to be believed" from her book Churching really makes all the rage in my heart ache to be released. Girlhood just like godhood is having your narrative taken and rewritten by men. girlhood is being seen but never heard while being analyzed through the lens of a man. it is being picked apart and mishandled. it is forced submission. it is not only "a begging to be believed" but a begging to be autonomous.

🙃 Regular reminder that while Hozier has amazing love songs, he is ALSO very outspoken about his leftist politics, specifically anti-fascism, anti-racism, reproductive rights, Palestinian rights and more.
Take Me To Church and Foreigner’s God are scathing critiques of organized religion, specifically the Catholic Church and the colonization of Ireland.
Moment’s Silence is about oral sex but it’s ALSO about how that specific sexual act is often distorted to a show of power rather than that of love.
Nina Cried Power is an homage to various (mostly Black) civil rights activists from the US and Ireland and a call to follow their path.
Be criticizes anti-migrant policies and Trump and his ilk.
Jackboot Jump is about the global wave of fascism and about protest and resistance.
Swan Upon Leda is about reproductive rights and the violent colonial oppression of Ireland and Palestine.
Eat Your Young is about the ruinous way the 1%/capitalism and arms dealers prioritize short-term profit over everything else to the detriment of the youth/99%
Butchered Tongue is about Irish and other indigenous languages being suppressed and erased by imperial powers.
If any of the above surprised you, please, please delve deeper into Hozier’s music, you’re missing such an important part of his work.

genuinely curious: do other places have billboards like these? because it took me until i was 22 to realize they might not be ubiquitous everywhere because being regularly told i was going to hell by random billboards on road-trips was just my memento mori as a kid like they don’t anything by it

Unfathomably based way to use AI.
Edit: ok, Im new to this whole Tumblr thing (Reddit refugee), how do you cope with all the notifications and attention when your post blows up ? (Do you even use "edit:" here?)
