BOTTOMS 2023, dir. Emma Seligman
The thing that particularly drives me nuts about the whole rap thing is that you could spend the rest of your life not listening to any rap at all and nobody would know. No one will ever quiz you. No one REALLY cares whether you, personally, listen to rap. People talking about cultural attitudes towards Black art are not thinking about you, specifically. Nobody is writing and going "And if Tumblr user so-and-so reads this they'll know I know they only listen to Broadway musicals and that I think they're a RACIST." I cannot fathom the kind of mindset required to see a discussion about the knee-jerk negative reaction people have towards rap and immediately turn that discussion into a confessional where you're like "I don't listen to rap but here are my specific and valid reasons why" like who the fuck are you and why should anybody care. Get over yourself!!
listen. i honestly do try my best to not be bitchy about stuff. but if you not-joking-joked that you wanted to watch a video essay from hbomb on the kendrick-drake rap beef. i think that you are obligated to watch fd signifier's 3 hour video essay. i KNOW the watch time is not the issue.
just because someone can articulate their point better doesn’t make them right, it makes them articulated.
getting into rap is actually really easy because once you hear a song with a beat that goes sufficiently hard, any preconceived notions you have about why you can't get into hip hop go right out the window and the appeal snaps into place. like I was a fucking obnoxious egghead nerd in high school who would give the old "everything except rap and country" when asked what kind of music I liked but the minute I heard Hard In Da Paint and started vibing I was like ohhhh yeah I get it now
"we need weirder queers" you guys couldnt even handle asexual people in 2016 (and probably still cant handle them)
Clint has such wasted potential. All that we know is that he's shy and that his life revolves around his job and Emily. I want to see more of him. Perhaps make a character arc where he haves to move on from his impossible crush with Emily and learns to be more open, possibly with the help of the farmer. He has so much wasted potential. He could even work as a bachelor. It could be fun to also give him more interests, imagine if he likes to make swords and has a hidden interest in combat but he's too shy to talk about it. CONCERNEDAPE MAKE HIM A GENTLE GIANT!!!!
