If We Commented On Modern Fashion Videos Like We Do Historical Fashion Videos
"I mean, it's pretty, but how did you even use the BATHROOM in that?! GROOOOOOSS!!!!"
"things to wear while coughing your lungs out from COVID and wildfire smoke and trying to avoid your fascist neighbor lol"
"yikes, think about how they all had to wear Spanx two sizes too small, though!"
[video shows reasonably nice everyday clothing] "but that's just what RICH PEOPLE wore! not REAL PEOPLE!!!"
[model is a woman of color] "um sweety only WHITE women wore that back then :/"
"did you know that [confidently incorrect, absolutely insane statement about the 2020s that the poster will then argue vehemently about in the replies]"

i love how fraught and complicated discourse around various utena characters ‘dying’ is when anthy is literally stabbed to death eternally by a million swords imbued with human hatred. and then utena gets stabbed to death by them also. like. ‘death’ is incredibly interesting in rgu because most of the time it’s this ambiguous figurative thing that has interesting implications re: ohtori as a closed-off world one can escape. we are all trapped in our coffins. mamiya is the only named character with a grave. nemuro memorial hall functions as one all the same. ruka is implied to have died in the hospital— was he dead all along? who was the boy we saw for these two episodes? is this dead boy the same boy, or is this just another coincidence from the shadow girls, cutting like a knife? it’s heavily implied that akio and anthy murder kanae by poisoning her, adding to the previous implication that they were poisoning mr ohtori too, but there are no perceptible consequences of this. kanae’s absence is not felt. she’s fed an apple slice. what happens to the bodies? we know what happened to the 100 boys, but what about everyone else? and so on and so forth. ‘death’ is a tricky thing in utena, i think it’s constantly functioning on figurative and literal levels in very different ways for very different purposes. dios died. dios was dying. dios didn’t die. he grew up. etc etc

Hiii, i love your stuff and kinda from a distance really look up at you for, in my perception, being able to express yourself without giving a fuck. Thats sick dude, Im so so afraid, of absolutely everything, its nice to think like i might grow into someone less apologetic of my existence. Nice to see people just being yknow
hey, thank you, this is really really nice. the secret that is probably not a secret is that i am also deeply afraid a lot of the time lmao -- but less than i used to be, and in ways that feel less stifling and self-suffocating, if that makes sense.
like, it used to be "i'm scared that if i express myself the way i want to, everyone will find me obnoxious, so let's just sand those edges down to be safe" -- now my fears are more like "now that i'm expressing myself in a way that feels natural and real, i'm afraid that it's all stupid/vapid/not worthwhile or meaningful" (<- specifically abt my art) or "i'm happy that i talk and act the way i want to now, but what if it makes me impossible to befriend," etc etc etc. which still feels bad and puts me in a funk a lot of the time but at least it's a fear that comes After/in reaction to doing stuff, rather than a fear that STOPS me from doing stuff, you know? like, it's evolved into a kind of fear that's less in my way.
anyway. i believe you'll experience something like this, because wanting to grow is the first step of growing. the fact that u hope or wish for something different means you're already on your way. to fewer fucks!! or at least distributing the fucks u give in a way that serves u better

literally every aspect of this page is hilarious
1) the cat scratching seb's face
2) sebastian uncaring about his scratched face as he realizes there has been a change in ciel's presence
3) him just going 'okay the plan (which is the same as every plan we come up with) is going swimmingly the young master put himself in harms way and it worked'
hes about as concerned about ciel's situation as he is about the scratches on his face. tbh hes more put out than anything. will bocchan PLEASE come up with a plan that isnt 'put self in danger and due to contract now i (seb) must go ''rescue'' him'
we all wanna talk about oh how clever o!ciel is but literally all his plans are “make sebastian deal with it”. which tbf IS clever he is working smarter not harder. but its sooo funny bc sebastian can't NOT do anything he is bound by contract to follow ciel's orders and to make sure nothing happens to ciel
