For the record, I know this is your main blog and not the other blog. Look at my face beloved. Do I look like I care?

No, you look like you're currently scrolling through the actual blog this should have gone to as we speak.

#Jim tag #also. main reason I haven't changed my icon in 6+ years. is: MATCHING ICONS WITH MY BELOVED and then he went and aBANDONED tumblr on me #He only ever had the one blog.

22 days until i meet mouth congress in person!!!!

#i sincerely apologize for never being able to shut up about this but it's literally the one thing getting me through finals #ngl now that everything actually feels Real (i.e. travel plans are booked) i'm actually a little anxious about meeting scott #bc i'm kind of worried i'll embarrass myself #bc i've never met a major celebrity before and like scott is my number one comedy hero #as in. given the choice between meeting him or john mulaney or kate mckinnon or any other comedian i love i'd still pick meeting scott #so it's surreal he's also the most accessible on that list #but now my mindset has shifted to be like ok jess don't psych yourself out about talking to scott for the first time #instead focus on talking to paul for the idk tenth time and basically getting to meet an online friend irl #(and in this case the online friend is paul bellini writer on kith queer icon founding member of mouth congress) #like i have no idea what scott will think of me. but i do know paul is gonna hype me up so much bc we're actual friends now #and that alone means it's going to be an amazing experience #(also if paul likes me scott will probably also like me. it's gonna be fine)

After watching the trailer 10x times, I wanted to share my thoughts on it, and the changes!!

Aka mun takes this as a chance to ramble about Hazbin Hotel-

Spoiler warning for the HH trailer under the cut!!

Okay, here we go!

I'm sad to see the og voices go, but now that we've been able to hear the new ones, I'm not as disappointed. Alastor, Husk, and Vox's new voices(i know Vox never REALLY had a voice, but i mean the iconic fan made one) threw me off guard HARD. And not in a bad way!! I like Alastor’s, it's more upbeat, yet it can also be intimidating like how Edward's was. Husk's voice is a BIG change!! I do like how it's now more smooth sounding, although it's still a bit difficult to match the voice to the face. Vox's voice made me cackle. I adore how it sounds, and it makes him hard "I'm better than you" nerd vibes. Or John Mulaney.

The updated animation and artstyle is BEAUTIFUL!!! Everything looks so clean and smooth, it's truly amazing what the HH team has done. MAJOR props to them!!

The fact we have yet to hear Sir Pentious is a bit concerning, but also exciting. It's been revealed his VA will be Alex Brightman, which is a bit strange that have yet to hear him. But we'll definitely be hearing him in the show!

I'm sorry I have to ramble about the stupid ass deer man- I'm very excited to see whether he plays the belated villain or if he's fighting alongside Charlie! As he says in the trailer, "It's time I remind everyone why I'm here" followed by a clip of him going (assumably) full/near full Radio Demon. Although it's not clarified whether he's talking to Charlie, the entirely of Hell, or to Lucifer/Adam. I can't wait to see how he acts in the show, and how/if he makes relationships/friendships with the others! Remember, he's the Radio Demon. He's an asshole- It also intrigues me that when it shows him using his powers, it looks like he's melting a bit. Either way, in quote of Alastor himself, "This is going to be very entertaining!"

Charlie and Vaggie are adorable together. But it does look like they're going to have some struggles in the show with maybe their relationship. Probably- based on what we've seen in the pilot and the clips for the series, Vaggie is very skeptical about Charlie's whole plan, while Charlie just wants her to trust in her.

All in all, I cannot WAIT to watch Hazbin Hotel, and see where these characters and story lead!

#mun rambles #hazbin hotel #alastor #husk #vox #sir pentious #vaggie #charlie morningstar #im so sorry for the ramble #but i had to talk about it #im so excited sjakksjxkeks #if anyone wants to add or point out anything #feel free too!! #love you all <3333

OPINION

Matty Healy exposed the dark side of the Taylor Swift parasocial fantasy

The responses to Taylor Swift's latest breakup highlight a toxic cultural phenomenon.

Karma may be your boyfriend, but Taylor Swift is not your best friend.Chelsea Stahl / MSNBC; Getty Images

By Patricia Grisafi

It’s a bummer when your best friend starts dating an apparent dirtbag. God, you think, what does she see in him? He looks like he smells of stale coffee and cigarettes. He looks like a hipster stork. You’ve heard him brag about how he watches humiliation porn. And don’t forget the racism and antisemitism.

Except Taylor Swift is not your best friend.

I don’t know what prompted the breakup, but I doubt it was a tearful Swiftie on TikTok.

When news broke this week that Swift and The 1975 lead singer Matty Healy had ended their brief relationship, social media celebrated in a way that was notable — and a little deranged. (And immediately started speculating about her next fling.) Just hop on Twitter and read the comments about how Swift had really heard her fans and tossed that loser in the trash. I don’t know what prompted the breakup, but I doubt it was a tearful Swiftie on TikTok. Still, imagine feeling like you have that kind of influence over a person you’ve never interacted with. Or that kind of personal investment.

Swift is — in some ways — an unusually private celebrity. It feels like her every move is carefully choreographed. We hardly ever see her messy, incoherent, or intentionally challenging. But fans feel like they know Swift because she writes prolifically about romantic relationships. It’s hardly novel, a musician writing about love and loss. Still, fans pore over these songs. They find Easter eggs in the lyrics, do complex analysis aligning certain ex-boyfriends with specific details. And because language is subjective and Swift is arguably both elusive and slyly encouraging of these readings, the meanings are ever-shifting. Depending on who you ask, she is everything from an Aryan pinup girl to a queer icon. In short, she is the perfect parasocial fantasy subject.

The term “parasocial interaction” has been around since sociologists Donald Horton and Richard Wohl theorized on the phenomenon in the 1950s. A parasocial interaction refers to a relationship in which a consumer comes to believe that media personalities are their intimate friends and that an emotional connection is shared. The phrase has become more popular recently with the rise of pop culture super fans, or stans. These fans can become incredibly invested in their favorite celebrity’s real-life relationships, and devastated if those relationships implode.

See, for example, when comedian John Mulaney separated from his wife Anna Marie Tendler in May of 2020 and began dating actor Olivia Munn. While celebrity relationships have always been fodder for gossip and people are naturally curious about their favorite stars (this writer included), public response regarding the Mulaney situation was noteworthy. Critics suggested that this was because Mulaney’s public persona made it seem like he was your buddy, your pal, a friend you could relate to. And he made his personal life part of his public persona by integrating details about his wife and French bulldog Petunia into his comedy routine. When he violated the parasocial social contract by not living up to that fantasy, things fell apart. It’s similar with Swift — particularly, this situation with Healy.

Swift stepping out with Healy disrupted fan notions of her and the values they believe she holds dear. She’s dating a guy who makes racist remarks? Who unrepentantly laughs about violently objectifying women? Is this who you are, Taylor? And if this is who you are, who am I?

Things got so intense that a group of Swifties circulated an open letter telling other fans to #SpeakUpNow.

Things got so intense that a group of Swifties circulated an open letter telling other fans to #SpeakUpNow and condemn the relationship: “He has been involved in acts and controversies that deeply trouble us,” the letter says. “We urge you to reflect on the impact of your own and your associates’ behavior and engage in genuine self-reflection.”

Rapper Ice Spice, who Healy called a “chubby Chinese lady” on a podcast, was brought in to share the stage with Swift in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Some speculated this act was a professional olive branch, others an empty, performative gesture to both Ice Spice and fans who were disturbed by Healy’s original remarks (he has since offered both an apology and a non-apology for the comments).

Poets talk a lot about how the speaker of the poem is not the writer of the poem. You’ve got to put distance between them. That’s healthy for artists and fans. You don’t know anything about Taylor Swift except what she carefully curates and puts out into the world. Her songs may speak to you, but she directly is not. Proclamation of ownership over a stranger and her love life, the fantasy that our whispers reach Swift’s ears and she heeds our pleas, is problematic.

Parasocial relationships can show the beauty of human emotion, our capacity for empathy, and our ever-expanding desire to connect. On the darker side, they reveal our desire for control, our capacity for cruelty, and our instincts to possess. If the parasocial fantasy is punctured, you might have to make an ethical choice that forces you to confront the dissolution of that illusion — and, more importantly, yourself and what you’re willing to accept.

ts1989fanatic: in some ways the last month or so on SM has been far worse and much more divisive than this🐍🐍🐍🐍 in 2016. There are times when I don’t recognize our fandom anymore.

I honestly don’t know if it’s the rise of TikTok as a preeminent SM platform or just a general increase in SM usage but I do know it’s become far more toxic than it was just a few short years ago.

[catholic-character-tournament]

For "most likely to be canonized a saint by the vatican" there will a two part submission to save people from typing a lot of propaganda and not having their character entered. So first form will be open just to collect characters. Then, I will announce who made the cut and I'll open a new form for propaganda/evidence of good works/living like Jesus/miracles

For best irl catholic, I mean (tumblr) celebrities/internet celebrities/icons

Auto in will include Lana Del Rey, John Mulaney, Bad Bunny but example nominees are: Joe Biden, JFK, JRR tolkien

The nominee can't just be catholic/culturally catholic, it has to be part of their public persona. (Lana, religious themes in her music and aesthetic, John Mulaney joking about Catholicism in his stand up, Bad Bunny referencing it in his music)

Lapse Catholics are allowed as long as they haven't converted to another religion

Making a rule that at least 1/3 of the nominees need to be POC because i know this site has a bias towards white men

[thebreakfastgenie]

It is kinda bizarre how John Mulaney said he might not want kids and then had a child in a different relationship and a bunch of people treated this like some sort of betrayal from a childfree icon.

#this is NOT about people being upset with him for other reasons #this is literally about this one thing

[incorrectcoralislandquotes]

Millie: to quote the icon that is John Mulaney '"I have had a long day, I am very small and I have no money- so you can imagine the kind of stress I am under!"

doodle suggestion- richie meeting mike and will, immediately making a your mom joke, then cut to will laughing and mike just standing there fuming like that one shot from john mulaney’s why buy the cow bit, of what it’s like bringing your girlfriend to the wedding of friends who met after you guys did (im sorry that’s so hyper specific especially because i couldn’t find the screenshot but it’s such an iconic face), where he’s just full on >>>:(

I am living life on the edge by writing "fucking your mom" on company paper. But here you go.
