A Cloak of Elvenkind

just cos a friend hadn't seen it - here's marxist art critic john berger, discussing caravaggio with some school kids. it's really interesting both as an example of pedagogy and as illustrative of how gender can work in art and how kids can relate to that almost intuitively

this is from Ways of Seeing, which is a documentary he made on demystifying art and capitalist culture more broadly, it's all available for free on YouTube and i'd highly recommend you check it out. it's truly incredible to me that he managed to get something so genuinely radical and accessible shown on the bbc in 1972!

I think instead of heaven or hell when they die everyone who has ever wanted to fuck Cicero from skyrim should all be put in a big room together and can only pass on to the next afterlife once they find out that 1 secret thing they have in common

And then they go to hell

in fall 2006 a P!ATD fan (kells) wrote Chuck Palahniuk a letter when she became a fan of his books after finding them through Ryan’s lyrics… and this is the bottom of the letter she got back

i hate straight gay people. i genuinely do. they want to fuck men or women in the most bizarrely heterosexual ways and look down on anything that isnt normal. "erm .... armpit hair.....? why would you want that from a partner...... lol" youre going to heaven someday and i hope they whip your ass there anyways
