I love period works based on relatively recent decades that are built entirely out of the childhood nostalgia of the people making them, and as such end up being just as much time capsules of the time they were made as the time they're set.

Like. I don't know if I'm wording this right. But "show or film based on a particular decade but entirely from the real memories yet flawed nostalgia glasses of a writer who was a kid at the time" is always going to be very much a product of its time. Like. Grease and Happy Days, both set in the 50s, could only ever have been made in the 70s and early 80s. Hairspray (the original film) and Heartbeat, both set in the 60s, could only ever have been made in the late 80s and the 90s. Ashes to Ashes, set in the early 80s, could only ever have been made in the late 00s. And Turning Red, set in the early 00s, could only ever have been made in the 2020s.

Because none of those works are true accurate depictions of what those years were objectively actually like. They're true accurate depictions of what those years felt like, if you were twelve at the time.

And that's something future generations of writers are never going to be able to quite emulate in quite the same way.

#it's like #when I was 12 it was 2008 #the market crashed #there was war in the middle east #obama became president #and there was a real sense of paranoia and fear about terrorism in London only three years on from the 7/7 bombings #I remember all of that #but if someone asked me to write something about 2008 as I remember it all of that stuff is just gonna be tucked away in the background #I'm gonna be waxing lyrical about Ed and Oucho on TV and Scouting For Girls on the radio #and the way cool boys refused to be seen in public with their hair un-spiked when they ran out of hair gel #and playing with your mate's new blackberry in the school loos and hiding your headphone wires up the sleeve of your jumper #that's what 2008 was like. that's the way I remember it

Kugane Night Market

Thursday March 7th

Twilight falls over Kugane and all is well, the streets emptying as the people make their way to their homes seeking the solace of their beds. This evening, however, is not like any other. A sweet smell hangs on the crisp night air and distant music draws you in like a siren's call. You turn the corner and there it is glittering in the darkness. Mesmerized, you make your way between the stalls, laughter echoing in your ears. You ask a passerby where you are and he hands you a mask, his smile wider than his face.

"Welcome," he says. "Welcome to the Kugane Night Market."

Ghosts and spirits, yokai and mortals, as well as those who seek the fantastic or uncanny, all find their way here to the patterned stalls of the Night Market. Whatever you may desire, you will find it here. Every desire has it's price and those who are not willing to pay will find the cost extracted in ways they may not expect. Learn well the rules of this eldritch occasion: mind your manners, wear a mask, and always be sure to be long gone before the market fades back from whence it came lest you find that curiosity too has it's cost.

eastern bloc gal here. I get what you mean (I'm atheist and about as spiritual as a rock so this is a wildly different perspective) but I did feel like I was missing a bunch of cultural references because my parents weren't willing to teach me any of it. so I chose to go to a religious school (on purpose. out of my own free will) and boy was it a mistake. So many bigotted people (not everyone ofc but the outstanding majority) with the vilest takes you've ever heard, and I swear even I'm more familiar with the Bible than some of them, they just parrot things back that no one has ever said. and overall they're not even the majority but they're getting louder and somehow the whole country has this image of a good Christian country while almost half the population isn't even religious. I think this turned into a rant. I AM SORRY feel free to ignore

Noo don't apologize this is so real!! My parents sent me to a fucking evangelical elementary school—not because they're religious but bc all the state schools had a reputation for lacking teachers back in the late 00s. That evangelical school was right next to an 800yo church and I thought the building was really cool! But in over four years of attendance, bible study and church assembly I never even *remotely* vibed with the religion because I couldn't take anything away from it. They took all the holidays I loved and removed the best ("heathen") parts and also said that Pokémon is Satan's work. Lol. Way to turn kids away from your faith I guess.

Lacking that sort of cultural touchstone because your parents aren't connected to it because your grandparents never taught them because your great-grandparents abandoned it is kinda weird. Like being brought up irreligiously is great but in the end you're still "culturally Christian" and the actual Christians in your country suddenly expect you to stick up for that shit?? They start talking about Christian values like it's supposed to be a big part of your national identity and yeah then some loud (sometimes even regional) minority says that certain women shouldn't be allowed to cover their hair because I guess that's only cool when Christian nuns do it. Idk man the whiplash is crazy. Almost as crazy as ppl claiming that a whole nation is defined by a thinning religion lmao

#i guess germany is a weird case tho bc all the religious loudmouths are from the south #and they have their own annoying ass political party #meanwhile the alt right would not dream of invoking god in their east germany-oriented marketing #bc my home state there is 75% atheist lol #ask #this is actually really interesting stuff. i wonder if there are papers about it

In 1957, Walker Evans shot scenes of shops and street vendors on the Lower East Side for a Fortune magazine feature called "The Pitch Direct." These are some of the photos. All are from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
