It has been 8 months and counting now, but every day I choose to be shocked and scandalized and rendered speechless by the utterly brutish, utterly horrific atrocities committed by Israel every single day. It should never become a new normal to know a whole country’s being genocided and to choose to distract ourselves w other things instead. It should never be standard to look at fundraisers of families suffering and choose to ignore them, to look the other way, to write them off as scams to alleviate any sort of guilt or gravity or moral implication that comes with ignoring these fundraisers. They should never ever be things we are okay with because it’s “just what Israel does now” “it’s just how people are” “it’s just racism.”
every time i get into a fanbase that peaked/was at the height of its popularity several years ago (in the case of inception, i assume the golden years were 2010 - 2013), i always think about how i’ll never be able to experience what it was like back then. what it could’ve been like to obsess about something with tens of thousands of people cheering in unison, bouncing ideas and theories off one another, creating a plethora of fanworks daily and sharing them online. i’ll never be able to make dozens of friends with the same interest, fervor, and adoration for the source material. there’s a certain kind of ephemeral joy associated with all of this.
on the flip side, the best part about falling in love with a movie that has a decade’s worth of fan content is that i can experience all of it at once. i don’t have to wait for things to update, for new content to be created - because it’s already there. there’s something precious about being able to peer into the past, the unique experience of being handed a time capsule and taking the time to sit down and discover its contents.
yet i don’t think looking back on the past as a historian of sorts will ever compare to the electric, heart-palpitating ecstasy of seeing it all first-hand.
I suppose this would be my contribution to the society🛞
