A Prayer To Sekhmet

This is how i feel when i'm listening to music at night, just me and the stars and nobody else.

I’ll stop goncharov posting soon but can I just say how fascinating it is to me that the genre we picked was cold war mafia movie? because if you had asked the internet a month ago what kind of film tumblr would invent, if tumblr were to invent a film, the answers would have been way more woke. a queer coming of age romance or a sexy heist with a super diverse cast or live action infinity train or whatever.

instead, the hive mind, the collective, latched on to something with much narrower boundaries, with stricter rules. no cold war mafia movie would have “good gay rep” or “a happy ending”, like you might expect tumblr to want. we want, we made, something rife with hidden truths, deception and manipulation, suppressed and sublimated emotions. it’s a movie rife with symbolism and suggestion, a text that needs to be unpicked and puzzled over, not one that spoonfeeds us a morally pure protagonist.

the website famous for our shithouse reading comprehension made this complex metatext about methods of interpreting an ambiguous artwork and that’s given me more hope for humanity than I’ve gotten from the internet in a long goddamn time

I originally thought the Buccaneers was going to be fluffier and more playful with the genre than Bridgerton but these male characters are soooo cruel and know exactly how much they can get away with.

Anyway, it just seems so much darker to start out with the girls so carefree and happy and then showing us how the men (and their society) is going to break them.

Acapulco Fandom?

Does anyone watch Acapulco on Apple TV? Because it is easily one of my favorite shows this year, and I would absolutely LOVE to talk about it with other people on Tumblr! 😍

WERE ANY OF YOU GOING TO TELL ME THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A PHYSICAL REACTION TO HOT PEOPLE??? LIKE HEARTRATE RISES AND ALL THAT. THAT’S REAL??

I see people talk about wanting more platonic male-female friendships and honestly that’s just another thing Only Murders In The Building does right. Of course there’s Mabel and her guys. A multigenerational friendship we don’t get to see that often.

But I was actually thinking about Sazz and Charles’ friendship when I started this post. They’re best friends, they’re family, they compliment each other as actor and stunt double. I just really like their relationship. She’s a lesbian. She stole his ex. She helped him make friends. He gave her a shot when no one else would.

It’s so important.

the work is mysterious and important, and that's why we've severed this tuba player

i feel like me, my mom and my sister are the only people watching “servant” every season and that’s why they keep renewing it
