#this is so random and I apologize

[nekropsii]

Let this be a living example that knowing the beliefs of any individual who wrote any piece of text- be it literature, articles, or posts- can and should drastically alter your perception on what the text is actually communicating, even if that knowledge has, on its face, changed none of the actual printed words. This is how application of real-world context works, and this is how it applies to any recorded medium.

It reminds me heavily of a quote from video essayist Jacob Geller, regarding the 1938 film Olympia- "It's different when Nazis do it". Olympia is a film that, on its face, simply depicts an artistic documentation of the 1936 Berlin Olympics. But within the context of its production taking place during the Nazi regime, with its director being a well known Nazi propagandist... The way the movie fixates on the power and elegance of the human form and Ancient Greek statues quickly shifts from being completely innocuous appreciation to the worship of what is perceived as the ideal forms of the "Aryan race". Suddenly, you understand the movie not to be a pretty inoffensive documentation of a historical event, but a propaganda piece.

Understanding the time period in which something was made, as well as the setting it was produced in/for, and whatever ideologies an artist may hold and experiences they've had is absolutely critical to getting a full understanding of anyone's work. There are some things that are near completely anodyne on their face, but the revelation of what the author thinks and feels about other people and the world around them totally redefines every word on the page.

This image is such a prime example of why context matters. This opinion, laid bare, stripped of context, is both inoffensive and nonsensical. No one's ever thought it to be lame to create your own nickname... But on its own, that's a harmless kind of wrong. ... But with the addition of them being marked as Anti-Trans (red) on Shinigami Eyes, a browser extension dedicated to crowdsourcing keeping track of Trans Friendly and Transphobic creators... Suddenly, "Nicknames" doesn't mean "Nicknames" anymore. Suddenly, you realize that "Nicknames" is code for "Chosen Names of Trans People". Suddenly this isn't about thinking choosing your own nickname is lame, this is about thinking that trans people shouldn't have the right to name themselves. Suddenly it's about invalidating identities, thinking they're worth mocking. Thinking that people who identify as trans are "just trying to be cool", and that they're not actually what they say they are, because you don't get to choose your gender nickname, that's something already decided for you.

Suddenly, you realize, it's not about "being lame".

It's about Transphobic Violence.

This is why you cannot ignore when an artist, author, essayist, developer, musician- so on and so forth- is bigoted. This is why you can't ignore the context behind their upbringing. This is why you can't ignore the context behind their lived experience, their ideals, their goals, their message. Yes, it may appear innocent on its face. Yes, it may look fine stripped from the context of it being written by an inevitably flawed human being. But what's really being said here? What do those words mean... To the one who wrote them?

Context redefines Text.

Even if the words didn't change.

Thought you may be interested in this-

hmmm you know it could be a blend of "Remember" and "rem" as in "REM sleep", i would put stock in That more than it being just a straight play on remember

WHICH. HM. okay bc as soon as i saw it i thought "oh! like the REM stage of sleep!" but REM stands for Rapid Eye Movement - the stage characterized by high brain activity (vivid dreaming).

so either it being specifically REMderem has meaning, or it's just the best play on words (maybe in relation to "remember" as you've pointed out!)

#hm... if it's REM for a reason... #its interesting that wally (doesnt sleep) would be the main target for an ad about sleeping #for a Pill named after the dreaming stage of sleep... #wally. sleeping. dreaming. hm! #Much To Think About! #im not going to get too crazy with theories yet #because there is a LOT of new info to sort through and take into consideration! #i need time so apologies! #i want to provide theories of Substance! with ample backing and thought! #no longer are the days where i just spew out whatever random shit #and then backtrack on it a month later with Oopsies That Was So Wrong! #(who am i kidding i Will continue to do that <3) #but i'll take more care with it i prommy #rambles from the bog #homebogging #wh speculation #welcome home speculation

can you stop trying to be funny and post unrelated stuff and just reblog the famous posts like you're supposed to

unfortunately I cannot

I did create the “the hellsite answers” tag so it can be blocked if you don’t want to see asks

but there are other blogs that I think only reblog posts (like @worldheritagepostorganization and many others that I can’t think of at the moment) that you’re free to follow if you prefer that

#ngl 2 years ago this would have made me cry lmao but it didn’t so I call that *growth* #no but the cursed asks and color of the sky shit is hellsite-y af and brings me joy #but when I do answers asks I make sure to also reblog a post that same day because yes that is the point of the blog #but I do apologize if it’s annoying and you’re not alone because lots of people do unfollow when I answer asks- as they’re free to do #which you’re absolutely free to and i’ll slow down on the asks but won’t stop because i’ve been answering random asks since the beginning #(like legitimately i’ve done this since I started in 2019) #but I do very much apologize but you’re free to not follow me if it’s not what you like from your legendary post provider #there are many many others out there more worthy than I #ask #the hellsite answers #anonymous #hellsite hall of fame curator’s bullshit

the mood for this scene.... is insane... literally THE most beautiful scene in a thai period lakorn i have ever witnessed. fearing for my life that i feel you linger in the air is deehuphouse's magnum opus because i don't see any of their future works living up to what ifylita brought to thai bl history

#i feel you linger in the air #claire opens her goddamn mouth #ifylita #it's so funny whenever y'all see me rambling on here it's either ranting abt thai bl conventions or random ifylita thoughts #my sincerest apologies #to those following me for anything else #the classiness and elegance of ifylita.... not a lakorn but not quite your typical bl series either... a queer period series #austen-coded thai bridgerton meets outlander we love thee

I've been thinking again about Minkowski and Hera during the time when Eiffel was stranded on Lovelace's shuttle - about how Hera had gotten so used to monitoring Eiffel's wellbeing, and how Minkowski felt responsible for his safety, and how neither of them cope well with not knowing things they feel they ought to.

Perhaps one day Hera notices Minkowski reading the nutrition information on the back of the ration packs (the same kind as the ones that were on that shuttle). And Hera knows what Minkowski's doing, because she's been running the same calculations herself. Calories in one ration pack multiplied by number of ration packs on the shuttle, divide that by minimum calories required per day, add something on for the number of days survivable with no food at all...

Hera's got access to plenty of information about what the human body can survive, but there's too many variables here. How damaged is the shuttle? What's the temperature like? What's Eiffel's body weight? And there's too many horrible questions that Hera and Minkowski don't want to think about, and are unable to stop thinking about. How much will to live does Eiffel have? How long can a person hold onto hope in a situation like that?

Perhaps they each separately decide on an answer to their calculations, if only so they can pretend they know that he's currently still alive. But their mental countdowns tick down. And so maybe there comes a day when Hera glitches much more than usual. And maybe not long afterwards there comes a day when Minkowski can't seem to focus on anything at all. And maybe they talk about it, or maybe they don't. But either way, they both know that the other is thinking over the same question. And they are both hoping - more than anything - that the answer they've arrived at is incorrect. They are both hoping for an answer that seems impossible.

#Wolf 359 #w359 #I thought about writing this as an actual fic #but I know in my heart I'm not going to #so here's just a random sad post #Apologies #I go back and forth on how much I think Minkowski and Hera talked to each other about Eiffel during this time period #Like sometimes I believe they must have talked to each other a lot about how they felt about losing him #and about the memories they shared of him #because the alternative feels too bleak #But other times I acknowledge that neither of them are really winning any prizes for opening up about their feelings #Either way I think Minkowski and Hera did provide really important support to each other in this time #even if it was more unspoken #I think the way they had to rely on each other in this time really strengthened their bond #Also I couldn't be bothered to figure out actual numbers for how long it might have taken him to starve to death #Lazy research provides too broad a range of answers about that #and I know this doesn't acknowledge the cryo pod #but Minkowski and Hera might not even have had evidence that it was functioning #and they certainly didn't know whether he'd use it #Wolf 359 spoilers #w359 spoilers #the empty man posteth #Hera & Minkowski #Eiffel & Minkowski #Eiffel & Hera #tw starvation

hyunjin laughing when you give him head. like not a haha funny laugh, but rather... lemme set the scene for you. you'd be making out, heavily so, touching and groping and griding and moaning and sighing into each other, just really getting into it and losing yourself within the other. at some point you'd make your way downtown, slowly kissing trails across hyunjins neck and throat, shoulders and chest, torso and v-line. he'd already have this sort of, sheepish grin, a mix of adoration and mischief - because on one hand you're being so incredibly sweet right now, ready and eager to please him, on the other hand you already look so filthy, sinful almost, giving him teasing puppy eyes and leaving fluttery kisses here and there all across his body, just to get him egged up this much more. and it's the fact that you know, that's what sells him. you know so insanely well where to leave kisses to egg him on, you know what to do to tease and make him want you more than he does already. and then when you actually get to it, when you wrap your reddened and kiss swollen lips around him, his tip first before working yourself further and further, pulling all the little tricks you know drives him wild, you know has hyunjin gripping the sheets beneath him, makes him arch his back off the mattress just a little bit while whines are leaving his mouth - all that, you knowing and using all and every of hyunjins weaknesses against him in the best way possible; it gets to him. it makes him feel so vulnerable before you, it makes him feel so connected with you, and he can't help but throw his head back in pleasure when he's close to cumming, a laugh leaving his throat, raspy and low. this kind of laugh you get when something lets you speechless, nearly sounding like a gasp already, or when something excites you, this really and truly genuine laugh - he can't help it, not when you finally make him cum harder than he's ever did before, when his thighs can't seem to stop contracting, when his abdomen can't help but tense up - presenting you the prettiest possible sight, and the tired, already faded smile on his face complimenting his features in the hottest way possible.
