“Babel” By Cildo Meireles (2001)

Rearranging tags on phone Tumblr is a fucking struggle

It's sort of an 'all across europe' thing. Or at least I think it is. I might be wrong since I'm from one of the 'more bitter countries'. Our hate language is vicious mockery (and so is our love language to be honest(that is when we speak at all)).

On one hand I understand it, I really do, It's not reasonable but it is an aftermath of the world wars. And if I want to go further it is really an aftermath of the way the whole country was born at all (rebellious child anthology).

However, and this is what I think matters more, while it is understandable it is unacceptable. While politics and art are never going to be inseparable, this amount of backlash is toxic.

Besides, on the other hand, the US is a relatively young country with such a young society and so much potential and it truly feels like hating on a new generation.

This is such a dumb petty thing to care about but it drives me up a wall how French people (and maybe other Europeans, but I'm only speaking for the French) are soooo snooty about Americans and American culture. They love to mock us about literature, food, art, etc

But they love all of it!! My local cinemas are playing Lynch films every single night right now in an homage. I went to Lost Highway last night and it wasn't packed but for a Thursday night last minute showing of a 30 year old film the theater was pretty full. Lynch was from Montana!!!

Like I get that it doesn't matter but it does drive me nuts because I think Americans internalize this to a degree (I know I did) and don't appreciate the incredible art produced by our own fellow Americans and that's a real shame

Okay so I’m not usually one to do callouts but I haven’t seen anything on this yet;

I am very certain that this account (https://www.tumblr.com/mystictastemakerpost) is a bot, but I could be wrong. Regardless, there’s stolen art on the account, and the posts are replicated perfectly from the originals. It looks like they block the original artists. I’ll link some of the original posts down below for reference.

Please hit the report button on the account! (And reblog this post if you want so more people can see it)

The original posts I was able to find as I was writing up this post (yes I’ll admit I only realized this was stolen artwork because I’ve been stalking the JayVik tags for a couple months), coming from different creators:

I like to think that thanks to Jason's death, Dick's hair became straighter and let it grew bacause he couldn't care less. He was trying to

The rest are a little harder to find, so if you do find the originals please reblog this post with the links, all these artists deserve the appropriate credit.

I envy the people who have to fuck around to find out

I was just sitting around

You deaf bitch of a godly image

This!! I could never put my finger on it but as ftm myself I feel much the same.

This also extends to my ASD. I'm so used to feeling uncomfortable or bordering overwhelmed I tend to forget I'm allowed to do against it, instead of the symptomatic treatment I grew up with.

Had a realization that part of why I tend to put off fixing things that bother me appearance-wise (such as my hair, I need to get it cut have the dye job freshened up, and needed to have done so a month ago at least) is probably tied to my dysphoria.

In the sense that; I look in the mirror and see something about my appearance that I cannot change, or cannot easily change at this time, ALL the time. Being so used to that state of forced ambivalence towards my appearance has rubbed off on the things I can change and control, like my hair and my clothing.

I’m paying to force seven thousand strangers to see a photo of my late husband having fun with his dog. Tumblr Blaze is totally worth it. XD
