You’re the town’s superhero. Your greatest enemy is the town’s supervillian. However, secretly, your both brothers. This isn’t anything tragic, as your whole destructive rivalry is actually just a massive prank on your third brother, the mayor.
finally, a realistic sibling relationship in the media

there really is such a softness in knowing that you look up at some of the same stars as people who lived 5000 years ago did

Look, I love the fae jokes. Hozier looks like he was pulled from a bog after a 1,500 year nap. His lyrics are poetic and morbid and romantic in a very other worldly way.
BUT
He’s right. Hozier has talked A LOT about how his music could not, would not exist without decades of innovation and creativity by Black artists. His entire style is based on soul and gospel and blues, WHICH ARE GENRES CREATED BY BLACK PEOPLE.“My first introduction to music [was] Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin’ Wolf, the music that my dad used to play in the house. From there, I just fell in love with the music coming out of black America. A lot of my folk influences would be coming from Ireland. There is absolutely no rock and roll without blues music. There is no blues music without one of the most horrendous atrocities of human trafficking in the last few centuries. It is, of course, a really difficult subject. Everything that’s popular music swings off the work and the achievements and the legacy of black artistry…”
So while I love the fae bog man jokes, we have to acknowledge the tremendous influence of Black artists. There’s no Hozier without Black music.

If yall couldn’t hear this in Work Song idk what to tell you. I really wish people could see past their imposed aesthetics of him and join the conversation he’s using his privileged to start.
Work Song is literally named after another song notably sang by Nina Simone
In fact, Hozier’s song Nina Cried Power (the title of which mainly refers to her singing “Power!” in the bridge of Sinnerman, I think) straight up lists several of his musical influences in the lyrics [link], and he says so himself [link].
And y’all should really listen to any and all artists Hozier mentions, they are excellent.

god i hate how normalized diet culture and shit like bmi and calories are. bmi is based on eugenics. calories are a measurement of how much energy something gives u and not at all of how much weight or fat ull gain. diets have been proven to be harmful and ultimately unhelpful in actually losing weight. fatness has been largely proven to not be inherently unhealthy and doesnt inherently cause health issues.
if anyone has more good links to add on then please do and if anyone knows more on this stuff than me then dont hesitate to correct me!

I wish disability positivity was less about preaching “you can do anything you put your mind to if you work hard” and more about telling disabled people “what you can do right now matters even when it’s less than or different from what society expects.”

garlic is to cooking as vanilla extract is to baking in that the amount I add to my food is guided by reckless extravagance and utter disregard, verging on mild contempt, for the recipe as written

gonna be honest here the amount of people conflating being tme with being afab is uh… concerning
for one it completely ignores the amount of amab people (cis men & camab nb ppl who aren’t transfem) who are capable of and engage in transmisogyny and for two it gives tme people an excuse to not say they’re tme because they can imply it’s ‘asking what’s in your pants’ to avoid holding themselves accountable for their transmisogyny

idk if it counts but my first exposure to gay people was kindergarten because i told my dad i was going to discover a country and give it a rainbow flag and he told me a couldnt because gay people use that flag and i told him i wish they were all dead so i could use their flag and that day at school i asked my teacher what country gay people were from and she said to ask my parents so i came home and asked my dad and he told me it was men who kissed each other and i told him that wasnt a country so he must be stupid and then i hate to go stand with my nose in the corner for thirty minutes because i called him stupid
now class lets discuss. would this be considered homophobia on account of wishing death upon all gay people or would it simply be bloodlust considering the lack of knowledge as to what gay people are
