“Le nature come la tua, dotate di sensi forti e delicati, gli ispirati, i sognatori, i poeti, gli amanti sono quasi sempre superiori a noi uomini di pensiero. La vostra origine è materna. Voi vivete nella pienezza, a voi è data la forza dell'amore e della esperienza viva. Noi spirituali, che pur sembriamo spesso guidarvi e dirigervi, non viviamo nella pienezza, viviamo nell'aridità. A voi appartiene la ricchezza della vita, a voi il succo dei frutti, a voi il giardino dell'amore, il bel paese dell'arte. La vostra patria è la terra, la nostra è l'idea. Il vostro pericolo è di affogare nel mondo dei sensi, il nostro è di asfissiare nel vuoto. Tu sei un artista, io un pensatore. Tu dormi nel petto della madre, io veglio nel deserto. A me splende il sole, a te la luna e le stelle, i tuoi sogni sono di fanciulle, i miei di ragazzi...." -Hermann Hesse, Narciso e Boccadoro

As if Muslim women aren't already demonized and stereotyped as "hiding something sinister" in her own country.

imagine you saw an alien spacecraft and your first reaction was to critique its flat color palette and unimaginative lines

Because context actually makes the already great headline even greater:

“I know this is horrible,” del Toro continues. “You sound like a complete lunatic, but I saw a UFO. I didn’t want to see a UFO. It was horribly designed. I was with a friend. We bought a six-pack. We didn’t consume it, and there was a place called Cerro del Cuatro, “Mountain of the Four,” on the periphery of Guadalajara. We said, ‘Let’s go to the highway.’ We sit down to watch the stars and have the beer and talk. We were the only guys by the freeway. And we saw a light on the horizon going super-fast, not linear. And I said, ‘Honk and flash the lights.’ And we started honking.”
The UFO, says del Toro, “Went from 1,000 meters away [to much closer] in less than a second — and it was so crappy. It was a flying saucer, so clichéd, with lights [blinking]. It’s so sad: I wish I could reveal they’re not what you think they are. They are what you think they are. And the fear we felt was so primal. I have never been that scared in my life. We jumped in the car, drove really fast. It was following us, and then I looked back and it was gone.”
