always on the hunt for stories. could yell for days about the eighteenth century. eating good food makes me emotional. might be a plant because sunshine makes me deliriously happy
Just watched Bulbbul it’s based on a tale of 18th century when people believed in chudails and if you’re looking for a sign to watch this then definitely go for it honestly there’s so many things to appreciate the cinematography the whole plot and the aesthetics definitely recommending to everyone and yeah Bulbul appreciation post the way her character is portrayed as innocent girl who got married at a very young age in the beginning and then whole plot twist this movie deserves a 5-star
I’d forgotten how exceptional the first episode of Black Sails and the introduction of Captain Flint are. In one (1) episode they point to this soggy, angry little man and go: this is the most dangerous pirate of the seven seas. he wouldn’t even win a swordfight. he beat someone to death with his bare fists and is ready to do it again. he probably cries himself to sleep at night. he’s the most collected, composed man you’ve ever seen. he throws furniture around in a fit when he’s angry. he talks about the importance of trust and honesty. he doesn’t believe any of it. he can completely change someone’s mind when he talks to them. the people closest to him know not to trust a single word that comes out of his mouth. he’s in control of the narrative. he’s trapped in a web of lies of his own making. he’s made himself into a legend. everything he’s built is just one second away from falling apart. he inspired a whole nation. he’s the number one public enemy. he’s a hero. he’s a monster. he’s just one man. he’s starting a war against the whole world.
Colonialism is not a machine capable of thinking, a body endowed with reason. It is naked violence and only gives in when confronted with greater violence.
jfk famously changed the course of fashion by making many appearances at state functions without a hat, which was previously considered mandatory for well-dressed men. at his inaugural address, he even bragged about “[his] big juicy melon, naked as a jay bird for all the world to see”. unfortunately we can all see how that turned out for him in the tragic events of the zapruder footage
the real tragedy about JFK is that with his horrible secret health condition managed mostly by uppers and steroids by incompetent 1960s doctors, he was apparently healthy, yet his system was essentially defenseless against the deadliest medical problem known to man: being shot directly in the brain
you know who could have used a warning about something being spoiled? JFK, about his lovely visit to Dallas, Texas
I don’t remember why I spent last night JFKposting. I don’t know exactly was going through my head here. On the other hand, what went through JFK’s head was pretty thoroughly established by the Warren Commission
the structural goal of lesbian media representation is to make being a dyke look as unappealing as possible. u have cops u have bullies u have blandly feminine white women pecking dispassionately it’s so disconnected to the vital pulse of lesbian existence that’s sexy and subversive and iconoclastic and countercultural. they can’t show real lesbians because too many of them are fat communists and look good doing it
the concept of ‘sperm whale’ is so fucking funny. these prudish victorians found a gigantic, terrifying sea-beast, and, discovering it was full of a thick, oily substance, immediately went 'is this fucking Cum???’ and started fueling everything with it. they thought their whole sexually repressed society was running on the monstrous cum harvested by deadly expeditions to the black, icy sea. what kind of immaculate neuroses they must have had.
