the thing about art is that it was always supposed to be about us, about the human-ness of us, the impossible and beautiful reality that we (for centuries) have stood still, transfixed by music. that we can close our eyes and cry about the same book passage; the events of which aren't real and never happened. theatre in shakespeare's time was as real as it is now; we all laugh at the same cue (pursued by bear), separated hundreds of years apart.

three years ago my housemates were jamming outdoors, just messing around with their instruments, mostly just making noise. our neighbors - shy, cautious, a little sheepish - sat down and started playing. i don't really know how it happened; i was somehow in charge of dancing, barefoot and laughing - but i looked up, and our yard was full of people. kids stacked on the shoulders of parents. old couples holding hands. someone had brought sidewalk chalk; our front walk became a riot of color. someone ran in with a flute and played the most astounding solo i've ever heard in my life, upright and wiggling, skipping as she did so. she only paused because the violin player was kicking his heels up and she was laughing too hard to continue.

two weeks ago my friend and i met in the basement of her apartment complex so she could work out a piece of choreography. we have a language barrier - i'm not as good at ASL as i'd like to be (i'm still learning!) so we communicate mostly through the notes app and this strange secret language of dancers - we have the same movement vocabulary. the two of us cracking jokes at each other, giggling. there were kids in the basement too, who had been playing soccer until we took up the far corner of the room. one by one they made their slow way over like feral cats - they laid down, belly-flat against the floor, just watching. my friend and i were not in tutus - we were in slouchy shirts and leggings and socks. nothing fancy. but when i asked the kids would you like to dance too? they were immediately on their feet and spinning. i love when people dance with abandon, the wild and leggy fervor of childhood. i think it is gorgeous.

their adults showed up eventually, and a few of them said hey, let's not bother the nice ladies. but they weren't bothering us, they were just having fun - so. a few of the adults started dancing awkwardly along, and then most of the adults. someone brought down a better sound system. someone opened a watermelon and started handing out slices. it was 8 PM on a tuesday and nothing about that day was particularly special; we might as well party.

one time i hosted a free "paint along party" and about 20 adults worked quietly while i taught them how to paint nessie. one time i taught community dance classes and so many people showed up we had to move the whole thing outside. we used chairs and coatracks to balance. one time i showed up to a random band playing in a random location, and the whole thing got packed so quickly we had to open every door and window in the place.

i don't think i can tell you how much people want to be making art and engaging with art. they want to, desperately. so many people would be stunning artists, but they are lied to and told from a very young age that art only matters if it is planned, purposeful, beautiful. that if you have an idea, you need to be able to express it perfectly. this is not true. you don't get only 1 chance to communicate. you can spend a lifetime trying to display exactly 1 thing you can never quite language. you can just express the "!!??!!!"-ing-ness of being alive; that is something none of us really have a full grasp on creating. and even when we can't make what we want - god, it feels fucking good to try. and even just enjoying other artists - art inherently rewards the act of participating.

i wasn't raised wealthy. whenever i make a post about art, someone inevitably says something along the lines of well some of us aren't that lucky. i am not lucky; i am dedicated. i have a chronic condition, my hands are constantly in pain. i am not neurotypical, nor was i raised safe. i worked 5-7 jobs while some of these memories happened. i chose art because it mattered to me more than anything on this fucking planet - i would work 80 hours a week just so i could afford to write in 3 of them.

and i am still telling you - if you are called to make art, you are called to the part of you that is human. you do not have to be good at it. you do not have to have enormous amounts of privilege. you can just... give yourself permission. you can just say i'm going to make something now and then - go out and make it. raquel it won't be good though that is okay, i don't make good things every time either. besides. who decides what good even is?

you weren't called to make something because you wanted it to be good, you were called to make something because it is a basic instinct. you were taught to judge its worth and over-value perfection. you are doing something impossible. a god's ability: from nothing springs creation.

a few months ago i found a piece of sidewalk chalk and started drawing. within an hour i had somehow collected a small classroom of young children. their adults often brought their own chalk. i looked up and about fifteen families had joined me from around the block. we drew scrangly unicorns and messed up flowers and one girl asked me to draw charizard. i am not good at drawing. i basically drew an orb with wings. you would have thought i drew her the mona lisa. she dragged her mother over and pointed and said look! look what she drew for me and, in the moment, i admit i flinched (sorry, i don't -). but the mother just grinned at me. he's beautiful. and then she sat down and started drawing.

someone took a picture of it. it was in the local newspaper. the summary underneath said joyful and spontaneous artwork from local artists springs up in public gallery. in the picture, a little girl covered in chalk dust has her head thrown back, delighted. laughing.

#writeblr #warm up #this is longer than i wanted i really considered removing that part about myself and what i went thru #but i think it really fucking bothers me that EVERY time i talk about being an artist #ppl assume i just like. had the skill and ability to drop everything and pay for grad school. #like sir i grew up poor. my house wasn't a safe space. i gave up a FREE RIDE TO LAW SCHOOL. for THIS. bc i chose it. #was it fucking hard? was i choosing the hard thing?? yes. #but we need to stop seeing artists as lazy layabouts that can ''afford'' to just ''sit around and create'' #when MANY - if not MOST - of us are NOT like that. we have to work our fucking ASSES off. hard work. long and hard work #part of valuing artists is recognizing the amount we sacrifice to make our art. bc it doesn't just #like HAPPEN to us. also btw it rarely has anything to do with true talent. #speaking as someone with a chronic condition i hate when ppl are like u have it easy. like actively as i'm writing this my hands r #ACTIVELY hurting me. i haven't been posting bc my left hand was curled in a claw for the last week #this isn't fucking luck. after a certain point it's not even TALENT. it's dedication & sacrifice. #''u get to flounce around and do nothing with ur life'' is a narrative that is a direct result of capitalism #imagine if we said that about literally any other profession. #''oh so u give up 10 yrs of ur life to be a doctor? u sacrifice having a social life and u get SUPER in debt? #u need to work countless hours and it will often be thankless? well i wish i was that lucky'' #we should be applying that logic to landlords ONLY #''oh ur mom and dad gave u the money to buy a house? and all u did was paint it white and rent it? huh.''

oh the dread, oh the worry! you love your sister so much and you need to know shes okay. you trust her but you cant trust the world, and more than anything else you cant trust yourself

this isn't gonna win me any friends but I won't pay a dime to see movies made by/starring people who signed the petition to free convicted child rapist roman polanski, and that includes guillermo del toro and wes anderson. you can love their movies all you want but paying to see them puts money in the pocket of people who publicly support rapists going free. 🤷🏾‍♀️

#idk it's cut and dry to me #and if you're PUBLIC in supporting rapists then like....what kinda shit you doing in private? 🤔 #most of the arguments i see are ppl going “but it was so LONG ago he's done his time” no he literally hasn't #that's uh the problem #he was convicted n then FLED the country to avoid prison #mf literally never did his time. he never faced justice. #“hasn't he suffered enough” literally no he hasn't #that man drugged and raped a child and plead GUILTY to it and then never saw a day of prison #he should be dead but go off #and before you come at me with “yknow x and y actor signed it too what about them?” bitch what about em? none of them getting my money! #not a goddamn one! #natalie portman was one of the only ones to sign and then admit she fucked up and take her name off #if she can do it then so can anyone else. they just actively choose not to. #“they were probably misled” ok well its 2023 the knowledge is public and google is free #maybe its time to walk that support back huh

I wonder how many tags i can add on to this

#there must be SOME kind of a limit otherwise posts would get suuuuuuper duper long like is it just 30? #idk but i'm going to find out by simply maxxing out the character limit for each tag and finding out the limit of tags for each post lololo #this is gonna be great. i just have to remember to type without ever using the comma. it shouldn't be too hard right? fuck i almost typed #the comma i'm already bad at this smh my head. also if your still here i commend you. you have a better attention span than i do. #i'm already starting to get bored holy shit this is not happening. i gotta power through this. FOR SCIENCEEEEEEEEEE. or somethinggggggggggg #but fr idk what else to say. maybe just saying that i don't know what to say will be good enough? but does that even count? #I don't even know anymore. ffffffffuck. this is gonna be a while huh? also holy shit if you're still here omg u deserve like. a prize or #something because u definitely didn't have to stay and read all of this bull shit. lololol i typed out bs but decided to just spell the who #thing out just to make it go by faster. i'm so lazy. this is only the nineth tag HOW will i make it to 30. i am sobbing the adhd is adhding #very hard rn. are you still here? bruh this is insane. i have somehow managed to keep ur attention this long and it's just me spouting #absolute balderdash. wait do you know what balderdash even means? i don't care if you do already i'm gonna tell you anyway. balderdash is #basically just another word for nonsense. boom. you learned something new today. balderdash equals nonsense equals this damn post. #why did i decide to do this in the first place. it was a dumb idea. i don't know if i can even keep going. this is only the *counts tags* #it's the 14th tag. we've got a long way to go boys. men. soldiers. comrads. friends. besties peeps. marshmallows. #where was i going with this? oh yeah. trying to max out the limit for tags. dang i almost typed a comma there. i haven't done that since #i think the third or fourth tag. dang that feels like such a long time ago. not for you guys probably. it feels longer because i have to li #type it all out and stuff. so it's definitely gonna feel longer for me. are you still here? good lord don't you have better things to #be doing than reading all of this? we're already on tag number 18. it feels like i should be on the thirtyeth by now. or however it's spell #'toast' you might be wondering 'why are you typing out the names of the numbers instead of say '9' or '5'?' well you see. young one. #this is a strategy i'm using to make each tag slightly longer. even if i don't know how to spell it. it'll make it just a little bit longer #anyway. i got off topic. not that there was ever a topic to begin with. unless it's about making this as long as i can. #which i am apparently good at doing. i guess. are you STILL here? do you seriously have nothing to do? i guess i'm flattered you stayed thi #whole time. instead of reading something else you stayed here. with me. listening to me talk. on the twenty-third tag. oh yeah its tag 23 #except now it's tag twenty-four. how crazy is that. this little talk is almost over. only 6 tags away if memory serves right. this's strang #i kind of don't want this to end. but i know it should. after all there is a limit. but all things must come to and end at some point i gue #i'm running out of things to say. it's probably a good thing it's almost over. hahahahah............... but i don't want to go. i don't wan #to leave this post. i've worked so hard on it. and for what. just for it to end. are you still here? yes? good. i'd hate to end this alone. #thank you for indulging me and my craziness. the end is only 2 tags away now. you can go ahead and leave. i'll be okay on my own. really... #...you're still here? i- i don't know what to say. i suppose a toast is in order. perhaps. for this journey. this stupid dumb post i though #would be fun. i'll make it short. it's the last tag after all. this was fun. but i will never do it again. so long as a i live. i'll miss y

Every time that someone credits Taika Waititi for Wellington paranormal - which he had no involvement in - I lose ten years off of my life.

Jemaine Clement is one of my favourite actors and writers and producers and he deserve the credit is is working HARD to deserve.

Edit: wwdits series, too. So much great work

Edit: OFMD, too. Yeah, he’s executive producer. But there was a BOARD of writers, and a creator, and although the fandom was pretty good at crediting Jenkins et al. when I left it, there are so many more people than just Taika Waititi that made the film, which he certainly didn’t do most of, however much I follow his work.

#wellington paranormal #taika waititi #jemaine clement #eagle vs shark was my parents favourite and what got me back into watching movies and kinda just enjoying life again #even though I know thats a waititi movie cos hes also great do NOT get me wrong #but Wellington paranormal has ways comforted me on sad or cold or lonely nights and one if its producers should be actually credited #and well-known for the outSTANDING work that they are doing #cos wow I love that show #and wos Clement is amazing #wwdits #ofmd #wow this list is growing #people really see his name on anything and give all of the credit to him huh #this was a long time coming #Other works he had a more major role in and he got most of the credit which was actually deserved #but as I was following the actors and the other writers I saw that they had no credit despite making these movies that I love and going on #to make incredible things #but that could be ignored cos well it made sense #and I do still love his work #I wouldn't stop now after decades

i'm starting to think living with 5 other people may simply be a problem

#vent post #negative #i've come to the conclusion i'm not getting enough sugar in my daily meals #(which is. ironic in a lot of ways. but i don't know what else the problem would be) #and that's great that's cool that i've come to this conclusion. i don't think i can solve this one #we don't buy that much sugary or junk food stuff anymore #my dad's got diabetes that makes sense that's understandable #so a lot of our family meals are like rice and meat and a salad #but yknow i'm not really gonna ask my parents to change that! it's been like that for a long time now it's fine it's alright #but i don't think i can actually solve the problem #i. already have a lot of foods that the rest of my family isn't allowed to touch. because i am So Picky #and when they were eating my foods more often i was Starving #i don't. think. i can ask for more. and you know what that's fine! that's fine that's ok i like my meals they're tasty as hell #what about snacks then? can we get snacks for the whole family? well no #we stopped buying more junk foodish snacks because it was All my siblings were eating #and it was bad! it was bad they shouldn't have been doing that. but now i don't think my parents trust us to be responsible with snack food #so our snack foods are. protein bar. fruit snacks (i had to request these specifically). popcorn #that's. that's fine. that's fine maybe i should be focused on fruit instead! fruit is good sugar! #well we don't store fruit i like the way i like it (don't put it in the fridge) so i never eat any of it anymore #but everybody else seems fine with it so really i'm not going to win this argument cause everybody else actually eats it more when it's out #(i don't think this is true. but i think it's true for My Dad and My Mom specifically.) #and i just. it really got me thinking about how much i don't have foods that i like in the house or meals that i love because Somebody Else #likes it done differently and not the way i like it #and that takes priority #to the point where i don't know what the fuck kind of foods i like because we just don't. have. any #i prefer white rice. mom prefers brown so we get brown. i prefer crunchier potatoes. mom prefers them soft so we make them soft #i like my fruits cold. my parents prefer to be able to See the fruits so they stay on the counter. i only eat chicken breast not any other #part of the chicken. my parents prefer thigh meat so we get thigh meat (which i don't eat) #oh huh. this post was a lot longer but tumblr deleted half the tags. yeah that's fair

“It’s like you kicked a big hole in the side of my life.” things even would say if they met the doctor After-

#askfjglsjkf its. coalescing. im putting the pieces together of where their story goes. #and one solid piece is that. the doctor is their best friend in the whole wide world. and they kind of hate him for that. #because without him. what would they know about friends. or the universe beyond their ship. #he blew a hole in their life and gave them the best gift anyone possibly could and. if they could look at the whole of their life. #if they could see all of it at once. they would be happier that he did. despite everything. #but people can’t do that. they’re fresh out of the worst experience anyone could have. and they never would have been in that situation if #not for him. (and worse - might never have been freed again. if not for him. it stings to be saved twice when you’re regretting the first #time.) #and so they blame him for it. (it was their own fault. their own choice to run rather than face the consequences of their actions - however #well-intentioned.) (but at the same time. where’d they pick that skill up from huh?) #and they hate him for it too. a little. a lot. it varies. #and they still have the watch. the one they can never return to its rightful owner anymore. and they still have the beads of their #friendship bracelet - the bracelet itself long since broken. it was. after all. authentically cheap. #and he was their best friend. and they love him. and they hate him. and it probably doesn’t help that they’ve spent the past however long #being influenced by someone who had an investment in fucking up their remaining attachment to the doctor. #god i wish this show would stop making me ramble about my silly oc just because i hears a single line aksjfkjfls #or not. never stop doctor who my beloved. #dw oc #dw #dw lb #dw 8x07

the thing about the supernatural finale is that it was the first episode of supernatural i ever watched, and i watched it live which meant it was 3am in my timezone, and i'd only seen the destiel love confession clip before that and i didn't know what supernatural was like so i really thought that dean and cas might get together

#basically what happened after november 5th was i kept seeing people on the internet talking about it so i watched the love confession #clip and then i got COMPLETELY fixated on it and had to watch it over and over again. like at least 30 times #and at that point i had no idea who those men were (when the finale aired i still thought they were canadian) but i was invested!! #my heart was literally pounding so much before i watched the finale because i thought when cas came back and dean told him how #he felt it would be just so emotional #and also for some reason digital spy the main tv news website i go to had said the finale was going to be 2 hours long and so even after #dean died like 20 minutes in i kept thinking oh well it's okay there's still time! they'll bring him back to life and THEN they'll get cas #and - oh dean's in heaven? sam's getting older? that's weird huh. but we're still not even halfway through the episode. they'll reverse #everything and bring dean back and go and rescue cas and - and - #and then the episode. just. ended like that!!!!

#I'm going to go to sleep & see how i feel tomorrow BUT #my initial thoughts were that ep9 wasn't..... the best. #i thought the pacing and cinematography and vfx were... off. #i thought both Pedro and Bella weren't at their best. #i thought the hospital stuff. stuff that was REALLY important. was rushed. #i thought they could have literally just given us 10 to 20 more min. of run time to help flesh it out... it should have been longer!!! #i thought it wasn't as emotional or done as well as the game ending #idk. #i still love the overall show. #i just thought ep 9 was a liiiiiiiiiittle..... #lackluster 🫤 #idk. I'll watch it again tomorrow. but... #🤷‍♂️ #..... #like sorry. but i just didn't feel the URGENCY and horror in Joel's actions at the hospital. #and like we really just said f u to having any infected around since ep5 didn't we. huh. #i DID like that joel said there were raiders at the hospital when lying to ellie tho. and that marlene didn't make it. #I've had in my notes for a long time that he should have used that as an excuse #for getting her out of there while she's still unconscious. #mmhmm #also #overall i feel like joel was acting a little nuts when trying to cheer ellie up #a little.... unhinged #it felt more forced than in the game. #and when he was comparing her to sarah... #it just didn't feel.... authentic #idkkkkkk #i missed the beat of ellie giving him sarah's photo #and them getting taken out by a smoke bomb instead of ellie almost drowning and joel freaking out over her not breathing was a little... #anticlimactic :/

#the neurotic 10/10 woman being in love with an average 5/10 guy with a good heart is honestly a huge reoccurrence in the witcher though #txt #see prev post/reblog for context #c: roach #c: pegasus #i still like that headcanon from the discord server that #geralt takes to equestrian husbandry when he’s older (in the tw3 end / au where he lives at corvo bianco w/ yen) #and is trying to breed roach because she’s a reliable and fast steed #but she and the paired stallion aren’t really taking to each other and during this period of time dandelion rides in on pegasus #and somehow dandelion didnt care to check if pegasus was actually a gelding or not #geralt thinks — oh finally the stallion i was pairing roach with actually did the job because roach is pregnant #however long horse gestation takes later #roach gives birth and geralt is proud — but he doubts the parentage because #— but ​the foal is both a biter and terrible-tempered (roach) and also fat and lazy (pegasus). literally the worst of both worlds #so geralt has to send a letter to dandelion being like #‘your stupid SHITTY horse knocked MY HORSE up’ #‘i hope youre planning on paying foal support’ (like child support get it) #‘i thought pegasus was a gelding’ ‘yeah i’m pretty sure he is’ ‘… dandelion do you know what gelding is’ #[geralt explains] ‘🫣 GHASTLY!! … ohh that’s why everyone always threatens me with that huh’ #‘poor pegasus 😭 my poor boy…’ ‘well obviously he is not a gelding though’ ‘oh. good on you then boy’ #anyways… im sorry you had to read this if you think its stupid. i think its funny and something which would take place in a happy ending #the other detail was that there was supposed to be a litter of foals and only one foal is fast yet docile (best of their traits) #but the foal doesnt like anyone except yennefer and she names it thunderbolt or thunderstorm iirc #but i realized later that horses dont have litters they have like one foal #these headcanons are community property but they had to be written out publically at some point so here you are #i find the horses of the heroes to be a great source of comic relief if you think about it
