i binged a ton of scooby doo movies lately + the one scene i cannot get out of my head is that racist jungle tribe bit from the scooby doo + the samurai sword ???

bc yeah all the tropes are awful, there's a good gag or two, but all i can think of at all times is their leader sounding really impressed and saying something like

'ohoho, BABUNGA!'

an anti-meme that's just me responding with delight by saying babunga and nobody else knowing what the fuck im talking about

skip to 2:26 for babunga, you'll see what i mean

yeah basically a bunch of their music videos starting from i need u (2015) have contained a running story with the members playing different characters. i dont remember much about it because a) im not as big of a bts fan anymore and b) their recent mvs havent referenced it but this article has decent rundowns of each of the characters (uhh tw for mentions of car crashes, family death, hospitalization, abuse, murder, and suicide) https://www.koreaboo.com/lists/heres-brief-explanation-character-bts-universe/

It’s never JUST about the tomatoes.

Basically!

Throughout the day, partners would make requests for connection, what Gottman calls “bids.” For example, say that the husband is a bird enthusiast and notices a goldfinch fly across the yard. He might say to his wife, “Look at that beautiful bird outside!” He’s not just commenting on the bird here: He’s requesting a response from his wife—a sign of interest or support—hoping they’ll connect, however momentarily, over the bird.

The wife now has a choice. She can respond by either “turning toward” or “turning away” from her husband, as Gottman puts it. Though the bird-bid might seem minor and silly, it can actually reveal a lot about the health of the relationship. The husband thought the bird was important enough to bring it up in conversation and the question is whether his wife recognizes and respects that.

These bidding interactions had profound effects on marital well-being. Couples who had divorced after a six-year follow-up had “turn-toward bids” 33 percent of the time. Only three in 10 of their bids for emotional connection were met with intimacy. The couples who were still together after six years had “turn-toward bids” 87 percent of the time. Nine times out of 10, they were meeting their partner’s emotional needs.

Damn, this made me think of all the “shouting into the void” social media posts everyone makes. Just bids for connection. From ANYONE.

I think that is ABSOLUTELY what a lot of that is. Our culture is very isolated (even BEFORE covid!), and we’re desperate to connect with others. I read an article one time that suggested that childcare workers stop saying that a child is “Just wants attention” and start saying that the child is “looking for connection.” We’re starved for it even from childhood.

When they are speaking about a passion, respond to children as if you would a tenured professor at a prestigious university, and to an adult as if you would a child free of the burdens of adulthood. 

Children are desperate to teach the wonders of the world that they know, that they have just learned, and share it with anyone interested.  Adults pour passion they didn’t know they had into voluntary obligations, and crave a simple acknowledgment of that passion as being worthy and valid.
