#this movie is so iconic in so many ways

[ct-multifandom]

I don’t usually make posts like this, but I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-intellectual junk lately, and I really think we need to put the word “pretentious” up on a shelf until people learn what it actually means.

It doesn’t describe someone who likes artsy-fartsy deep meaning media. People who are pretentious are fake. They’re posers trying to be sophisticated and unique, not like other girls. They pretend to only like stuff they think will make them sound cool when they talk about it. They want to act like they know something you don’t, and they want attention for it.

By definition, if you genuinely enjoy something, you can’t be pretentious. If it resonates with you, and you analyze it, and you don’t care what people think, that’s the polar opposite, actually. If you love obscure experimental prog music, if you watch underground high concept indie films through English teacher eyes, if you spend hours in a modern art museum reading each piece as a vessel for storytelling, if your backpack’s full of poetry books that inspire you, if you play underrated games that were someone’s passion project, if you have an interest in studying the classics or the masters, you are not pretentious.

Of course, some people just don’t like some stuff, and that’s fine, but that’s not what this is about. Don’t let anti-intellectuals shame you for enjoying things just because your interests are inaccessible to them, because they refuse to be brave and put effort into critical thinking. You’re not stuck up for refusing to overlook the craft of artists.

#anti intellectualism #media #movies #books #music #critical thinking #my friend who primarily listens to one very popular band once said that people who listen to obscure music are annoying and pretentious #which rubbed me the wrong way because 1 she knows that I listen to obscure music and 2 it’s such a cowardly consumerist take. anyone can #make music and hey a lot of the people who do make GOOD music. and this goes for all *obscure* media #this post was mostly inspired by people talking about Barbie and those anti pick me girls like the pick nobody girls who insist thinking is #for boys and having fun with an empty brain is for girls. Greta gerwig is an artist. I haven’t seen the movie yet but I know it has a deeper #message than haha cute pink! I’ve seen the summaries about the true meaning. the pinkness and popularity doesn’t negate the narritive. #though in the notes I saw a lot of tumblristas comunistas shitting on the film for being one big ad that people *fell for* which tbh is #tbh almost as anti-intellectual. don’t get me wrong they milked this film to sell hella shit but I don’t believe kids who play with dolls #are the target audience as these people claim. Barbie is a culturally iconic symbol almost archetypical of societal expectations for women #you say barbie people think unblinking perfect plastic pink girly. reminds me of the poem The Last Mojave Indian Barbie. yeah yeah you all #hate brands but this one carries undeniable significance and makes for a powerful literary device. it’s been used many times before #sorry for writing a tag essay about a film I haven’t even seen but I’m tired of internet people focusing so much on proving others wrong #that they end up oversimplifying everything just as much as the other person. god I saw people doing this to Nimona saying transphobes were #looking too deep into her character and they’re reactionary clowns for making that jump. like for once the transphobes are right. she is #trans. it’s a queer story. and irl the first people who notice queerness are the bigots who can tell you’re different. sick owns telling #them the story’s not that deep is harmful and it’s like they’re ignoring the real message on purpose. okay enough rambling hehe! thanks #barbie #nimona

I watched Lily Simpson's analysis of the trans Two-And-A-Half Men episode, and I'm sorry, but it's hilarious and iconic that Bill's old name was Jill... like it sounds so absurd and completely unrealistic if you're trans, but honestly, that's just a power move 😭

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #nonbinary #ILY BILL TWO-AND-A-HALF MEN <3 #also why does he get to live out my dreams. like. how fucking iconic is it to get with your ex's mother who is completely supportive #i never watch sit-coms but i kind of want to watch that episode like. #obviously it won't be perfect and i found part of the clips lily showed to personally just be painful BUT. #i will give them the 'it was 2004' pass and move on 💀 #i honestly think the cis gaze in the way 'old flame with a new wick' is /mostly/ funny #yeah honestly sit-coms to me have always been like... a 75% chance it's a terrible slog #i aspire to be like bill two-and-a-half men <3 #also i'm kind of obsessed that they did a trans man character. i am kind of starved for trans male rep fr </3 #because so many of them are in movies or shows i'm not into lol </3

An afternoon at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures really reminds you why we watch our favorite movies over and over again. 

#academy museum of motion pictures #the godfather #fantastic mr. fox #the first time I watched the godfather I don't think I quite understood it but experiencing it left a lasting impression #no matter how many times I've watched it the effect is profound the craft of it the way it looked #watching an elongated trailer of the first two films the iconic score the iconic scenes - there's a reason it's arguably the greatest films #pedro almodóvar #who made watching films with subtitles so normal! #fantastic mr fox #stop motion animation the start of something #I love the movies

[pynkhues]

Watching Harry and the Hendersons, Innerspace and Mannequin back to back just - - for better and for worse, nobody is doing it like mid-80s cinema anymore.

#they are all unhinged in completely different ways #all three were nominated in the 60th academy awards #which is the most hilarious and delightful selection of nominations #a good selection? #no lol #but at the same time so many iconic films #the witches of eastwick and predator and lethal weapon and robocop #plus y'know #moonstruck good morning vietnam and fatal attraction #it's so fun to look at these retrospectively and see which movies had real cultural impact #(and which should've tbh)

[topoillogical]

I've mentioned this before but I am literally (including right now) always doxxing myself online because I cannot resist telling people that that scene in Mean Girls where Regina George got hit by a bus was filmed on MY street, just a couple blocks down from where I live

#the mall scene is so nostalgic for me since i used to go there all the time #i still do but its been renovated and doesnt look the same #im constantly walking across the field where cady said math was her favorite subject #the field is astroturf now. how things change #oh and the room where they had the iconic math contest. that was my physics lecture hall. thats also where i will graduate #yeah i. have a special connection to this movie #oh! my elementary school music teacher played a sexy angel at the halloween party so. theres that too #weird to think when i was just a baby i was. at one point. within a hundred meters or so of linday lohan tina fey etc etc #ive walked through so many movie sets by the way. toronto is such a hot filming location. hollywood... 2

[just-your-average-tangerine]

The older I get (I say as if I'm not in my mid 20s) the more I feel isolated from other queer people my age. And not even in a bad way, its frustrating feeling alien to what is supposed to be my community but I prefer isolation over constantly trying to keep up with whatever the new TV show/ aesthetic/ interest/ joke is.

#5 million tik tok audios saying 'do you xyz that has nothing to do with being queer or are you straight' #well there you have it guess im straight now #like i know its a joke i know i get it #but i know so many people irl who act like its truth #and its really fucking irritating #especially when you consider how many of those statements are not positive #like they arent inherently negative but certainly could be taken that way #related to what i was saying in that rb earlier #its annoying how frequently i have my peers telling me 'your gay card is revoked until you watch owl house' #or whatever the latest one is #i still dont know what the fuck cottage core is #dont get the deal with frogs or mushrooms or whatever #i just want to live my life #watch movies read books play my guitars #do the things i love on my terms #and funny enough the fact that i dont care about the latest 'queen culture/icon' or whatever has yet to make me less queer #i will never meet your standard for what is 'queer enough' and i dont want to #op

[bandzboy]

funny how i planned to rewatch hsm soon 🙏

#i have watched all the three of them so many times #but i definitely watched the second one way more #bc it’s my fave 😞 #the songs on that one are too iconic man #everything abt it … movie of all time idc #tris.txt

[pinkcherrytrash]

mentally preparing to see dacre montgomery in that blasphemous wig in the elvis movie tomorrow

#i fucking MISS YOU dacre #wtf why aren't you the lead in so many movies right now #face it tho only he could look sexy with stupid hair #dacre montgomery #be in more movies please you're killing me #is dacre not being offered roles or is he being super stingy with what he picks #because i kind of have the feeling he's being stingy #there's no way scripts aren't piling on his doorstep #bro is an icon

[sovamurka]

three years later I'm still thinking about the decision our voice dubbing department made when they chose Daria Frolova to voice Jinx in Arcane, did they know what kind of unhinged meme potential they created???

#it was actually the best choice ever! she fits SO DAMN WELL AHAHHSHFKFLF #but because Daria is such a prolific voice actress we now have situations where you watch a project she participated in and get jump scared #AND THAT'S LIKE A LOT OF PROJECTS. LIKE ELENA SHULMAN (rest in peace queen of va) SHE'S VOICED SO MANY ICONIC CHARACTERS OVER THE YEARS #SHE'S BASICALLY RUSSIAN TARA STRONG AT THIS POINT #and if you were growing up in russia during late 2000s and 2010s... well. she's basically the one who made your childhood the way it is. #fun fact. she voiced harley quinn at one point ahhshfjfkfk in lego batman movie of all things! #even more funnier fact. she voiced both tails and amy in rus dub of sonic boom. #but THE FUNNIEST fact is that she voiced MARINETTE. imagine watching miraculous ladybug and hearing jinx.

Finally feel like I can say something coherent, so here goes... I say this without a shred of exaggeration: Akira Toriyama was legitimately one of the most important creative figures of the last 50 years. His work, especially Dragon Ball, has influenced SO much even outside its own medium. Movies, TV, cartoons, comic books, video games, MUSIC... all of it. You can see his fingerprints in so many other works. Even now, artists and writers, voice actors and animators, musicians and game devs are all mourning him and reflecting on the impact he had on their own work. Titans of anime and manga are sharing in this pain. The craziest thing about this though? The humility he had in spite of it. He was always reluctant to be in the spotlight, preferred to keep his head down and just work, never really worried that much about public perception of himself. Part of what makes him such an icon, man. Losing him is losing a piece of our shared history. It's something that resonates deep in the hearts of everyone his work touched. This is just... such a loss. And I can't even begin to imagine what his family is going through right now. Praying for them all. Rest in Peace to a literal Legend, an absolute Icon, and a personal inspiration in more ways than I could ever express properly.

#my totally unfounded impression that i am always right about everything gets in my way sometimes #like in silly ways #like i love reality competitions #but like. i cannot stand when the WRONG person wins #and the wrong person goes home #not like get upset like fr will not watch anymore dsjkd #i've stopped watching so many shows bc it wasn't going the way i wanted them to go #WHICH WAS THE RIGHT WAY #like !!!! ik the judges are the experts but they're WRONG #anyways i'll not finish the 2nd season of next in fashion bc they're WRONG and they're IDIOTS #also i can't stand gigi hadid im sorry #just nepo babies and the way they have absolutely no personality #and the little they do have seems taken from like a secondary character in a disney teen movie #but a disney teen movie that was released in 2019 #not the classics #she's just so plastic in every way #and alexa chung was SO iconic #anyways...... might just google who wins tbh #shut up laura

[britishchick09]

so many awesome movies came out in 2004!!! :D

#between this and baby facebook i'm starting to get ideas for an '04 story... #two stoned college dudes watching allll the flicks! (and trying to get girls) #what were you expecting a girl living through the times like all my other historical stories? ;D #i wish i could come up with something like that but those dudes just pop up in my mind #maybe... dudes and friends? #2004 isn't historical tho... yet it's not exactly that contemporary in a way? it's weird! #and i wish i hadn't been a baby during that time! #i'd remember seeing so many iconic movies... :/ #at least i have the honor of saying these came out during my lifetime! ;D

I was asked to tell more about the holidays in my legacy gameplay, so here is a super long and detailed post on the subject! 😊

How I use holidays in my game

I used to hate the holidays, cos I saw them as something my sims had to participate in and there was always so much pressure to complete all the traditions! But then I cracked it...

Holidays are a great way to add objectives to gameplay! When every day is some kind of a holiday with its own theme, there's always something for my sims to do.

I tick the "day off" box only if the holiday is a major one or the traditions would feel too rushed if my sim worked on the same day.

I try to have a lot of outdoor/traveling holidays in the spring and summer, and more home lot based holidays in the autumn and winter.

For some holidays, I add a diverse set of traditions and then choose only one or two to complete every sim year.

Sometimes my sims are just too busy with other things in life to participate at all. The No more "awful holiday" sad moodlet mod (linked below) is super useful because it completely takes the pressure off of completing holiday traditions!

It's very refreshing to use custom icons for the holidays, it matters more than you'd think! I use the More selectable icons mod (linked below) for this feature.

I've taken ideas and inspiration for some of my holidays from countless lists made by other simmers over the years.

More holiday ideas

If you want to create your own holidays, but struggle with coming up with ideas, here are some things I always consider when I create holidays.

Can you match a world with a season? Summer holidays in Sulani, winter holidays in Mt. Komorebi, etc.

Alternatively, have a summer holiday in Sulani when it's winter elsewhere, a winter holiday in Mt. Komorebi when it's summer elsewhere, etc.

What if you took the default holidays and placed them in a different season? Celebrate Winterfest on the beach in the summer!

Can you match a world with a theme? Nature holidays in Granite Falls, city holidays in San Myshuno, etc.

Think of a simple theme for your holiday (games, sports, food, animals, books, etc.) and choose traditions based on that.

Create a holiday that requires your sim to travel from world to world to complete all the traditions.

Have a 3 day holiday for a vacation trip, with different traditions to complete each day.

Create holidays for specific life stages. What would a teen or an elder sim do for their holiday?

Create a holiday for each occult type. How would a Spellcaster spend their holiday?

Can you think of a way to combine holidays and clubs?

Put two really different holidays right next to each other so you have lots of variety in gameplay.

If you're playing a legacy, create a holiday for each heir sim based on their personality, and have their offspring celebrate these holidays to honor them.

Research real life holidays that are celebrated around the world to find new ideas.

Can't find the traditions that you need in your game? Follow this tutorial by LittleMsSam to create your own traditions!

I hold you SO SO closed in my handsss,,, I love seeing you in my notifications it's always such an honor and makes my day so much

-@sm-baby

omg hiiii mushroom!! :D i'm gonna be honest, i've been staring at this trying to figure out how to respond for a while but i am far too flattered to think of a good response! consider me rendered speechless...

anyway, i just hope you know the feeling is mutual and i am also very happy when i see you around!!! i'm going to use this as an excuse to toss some carnival au art your way which you'd enjoy, i hope?? ^-^

yes this one's based off madagascar 3 which... please don't judge me too hard for that... that movie's iconic (to me at least 😭)

there's more to these but idk i wasn't feeling it so crops are all i'm giving out

this one i'll probably still finish but i like how caine looks so here's a sneak peek

that was all pomni and caine wasn't it uhhh. whoops... here's a couple jax i also like that guy

and this isn't the carnival au, but it IS showtime and i know you love them... technically a wip but it's gonna take sooo many rendered pages to finish that idk if i'll ever actually get it done so just take this bit

okay that's it, ty again for stopping by!!!

#realized i haven't posted art in a week... sorry guys... i had a really bad migraine i think it reset my brain a bit... broke routine #and if i break a routine i forget it exists and i didn't post art for a bit so i kinda forgot that was a thing i should be doing #the amazing digital circus #tadc #pomni #caine #jax #showtime #carnival au #ask response #my art #tw blood

Limerence is an 18+ slice of life IF that follows you, one of the most globally demanded actors of all time. You just accepted a lead role in a romance movie, one that’s amongst the most highly anticipated films of the year. You were ready, prepared, and content with the plan the directors and producers laid out for you.

Everything was perfect. This was going to be your best work yet!

Until you heard a door click and felt the breeze of the air conditioning blow against your neck as you turned. And now that perfect plan was slowly falling apart as you spotted your devilishly attractive co-star and felt an electrifying pull that would blow every publicity stunt out of the water.

Now, you must avoid getting your heart absolutely shattered again.

I’m being so serious when I say you're gonna be able to strut your stuff. Like, you're THAT!

THE CAREFREE ROMANCE "Is it sin to love?"

Arthur/Aria, a people-pleaser mixed with a warm heart, is the perfect actor for the counterpart lead in a movie that ends in the happiest way of all. Many would categorize them as a golden retriever, always filled with energy and a happy aura. They walked through those stage doors, immediately greeting everybody with respect and smiles on their face.

THE TRAGIC ROMANCE "For the wounded and the lost."

Corin/Carrie, a cold demeanor mixed with a frozen heart, is the perfect actor for the counterpart lead in a movie that ends in heartbreak. You swore they were throwing daggers at you through the whole reading of the script. The directors say they can feel a connection brewing beneath their harsh exterior, but you can't seem to spot it.

THE THRILLER ROMANCE "The vanity of existence."

Kenley/Kaylee, a mixture of both cold and warm, you don't actually know if they'd be the perfect actor at all. They're all over the place, left and right, backward and forwards, you can't ever seem to spot them in one place for more than five minutes. The directors are starting to wonder if you two will even be able to progress through these scenes with their attention being constantly stolen, but hey, who knows, it might work!

Husk Boyfriend Headcanons.

✦- Author's Note: I'm still trying to upload 400 Hazbin Hotel Icons on Pinterest. And those 400 Icons are just from episode one of Hazbin Hotel and Pinterest has an upload limit so I hit that upload limit for the second time today, so until I can upload the rest of the icons, I decided to post the Husk boyfriend hcs. Husk is my favorite character from the show; it's an absolute delight that David Keith is voicing him since David Keith was important in my childhood and he's my favorite voice actor, so him voicing Husk makes me love the character even more. Also update! I have medicine for anxiety and medicine for sleeping finally, so I'll be adjusting my schedule, I'm sorry that I didn't update Bloody Legend but I will soon, I promise my little roses. Remember to eat a meal or a snack, drink some water, get some fresh air, take your medicine, and remember that you are loved.

✦- Important: Reader is gender neutral, Protective Husk, Husk can sometimes be an ass, Reader is a singer at the hotel, & Just Cuteness.

✸- Husk was a loving and caring boyfriend. But sometimes he can be an ass from time to time. But at the end of the day you know that your fluffy boyfriend can be a sweetheart. He loves it when you sit at the bar while he's drinking or serving drinks. He'll listen to you talk about your day or songs that you have been writing. When he's talking about his day or people that pissed him off, you'll listen. The bar is likely where you two are mostly seen when it's not your rooms or the streets of Hell. Husk isn't afraid to tell other guests to fuck off if they come up and try to flirt with you. And you aren't scared to do the same if people try to hit on Husk or disrespect him if he refuses to serve them another drink.

✸- When it comes to laying in bed, Husk doesn't mind being the big or little spoon. But he very much prefers being the big spoon. He likes it when you run your fingers through his fur or use his fluffy chest as a pillow. It's hard for him not to let out little purrs because of how you play or stroke your fingers through his fur. He'll rub gentle circles on your back or hips. He'll watch a nice movie or show with you. Maybe even rock you to sleep, he'll whisper sweet nothings into your ear and tell you how much you mean to him. He'll place kisses along your face and cover you up a bit when you finally fall asleep, don't worry he's not going anywhere because he'll fall asleep next to you.

✹- You're both losers! You and Husk both know that you are losers. You both need through painful things when alive and when in Hell. Maybe you are both still dealing with painful things but you both know that at the end of the day. You have each other and can yourselves around one another. That nothing will stop you both from living through the shit streets of Hell. To never be scared to express oneself or speak your mind.

✹- You find it fascinating that Husk was once an Overlord. You ask him so many questions and he'll happily answer all of them. When you ask him if he ever had a chance to go back to being an Overlord would he? And his answer is always no because he isn't sure if the happiness he had as an Overlord was truly real happiness. He doesn't want to be an Overlord but he also doesn't want to be on Alastor's leash. But you promised to find a way to free him from Alastor one day.

✸- Husk favorite thing to do with you is taking you on a romantic dinner then having a night stroll in the park. Hand in hand the two of you will walk and Husk will sing a song to you. He'll pick a flower and had it to you. Tell you how grateful he is to have such a beautiful and special demon in his life.
