no update this tuesday - needs just a little bit more time on it. it's pretty close to being done though, just a few verses left. the proof is in the fact that this is from the bridge, heh.
i love how talking heads’ nothing but flowers music video looks like a 2010 youtube meme video. like the way the text is displayed and shit, truly amazing.
Women do not want a flower. We don't need a flower to appease us or validate us. We want actual, structural, institutional change. Because we are- from birth - subject to misogyny and sexism in every aspect of our lives. A flower is not going to change the pay disparity we face. A flower is not going to stop domestic violence. A flower is not going to help women suffering for decades due to medical misogyny.
We want to tear the system apart. You want a flower to soothe your ego.
(In the silence between the last two panels, there is a 20 page comic in my head filled with flashbacks of every moment Scott teased, scolded, or dismissed Jimmy—and every moment where Tango was instead kind, patient, and proud)
