@Will_Tanner_1 Naval Architect William Francis Gibbs admires his magnum opus, the SS United States.
Built on the machinery of a Midway class carrier, it is the fastest ocean liner of all time.

@normalgirl0000 Counterpoint: manic depression has enormous aura.

Foids discovered that by identifying with acronym diseases (such as ADHD, POTS, hEDS, PCOS etc etc) it shrouds them with an air of emotional complexity and importance.
This doesn’t really happen with named diseases, however.

Young hoes be like I have CPTSD ARFID EDNOS ADHD GAD religious trauma and 3-5 guys lowkey stalking and harassing me at any given time in my twitter DMs

@theymademeleave @mettamess Not hardly. All of the women I know like this are married to an oil roughneck with whom they are madly in love.

look, Charles and Sebastian can't have been gay, since neither is Anglo-Catholic, and it is an explicitly established pillar of Waugh's worldbuilding that all and only Anglo-Catholics are gay. Requiescat in pace, media literacy
VB Knives@Empty_America
The modern reader is often completely unable to understand any level of nuance or implication. I've seen posts arguing that there is nothing gay about "Brideshead Revisited." I mean come on.

@theymademeleave 🎵I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand, walking through the streets of Soho in the rain!

@aerendian She was raised Unitarian Universalist which is just a bizzare background for someone adapting Lewis.
On the other hand she was a competitive fencer in her youth so perhaps the fight choreography will be good.

I can’t wait for all the Christian themes and imagery to be treated with sincerity and respect 🥰

Greta Gerwig breaks her near two-year silence on adapting ‘Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew’ by C.S. Lewis. “It’s all very under wraps right now, but it’s something that I’m just so thrilled about because it was the book of my childhood. It was the book series that I loved, and I lived through, and I spent so much time imagining myself inside of Narnia … It’s been a joy and an honor to be the person who gets to imagine this universe.” These are her first public comments about Narnia since May 2024.

It’s critically important to gatekeep an aesthetic. At the turn of the last century being a weaboo was the preserve of beautiful women and slim erudite gays. After WW2 they let the masses in and needless to say it’s gone to shit.

@PulpedFilmbro @CSandbatch There’s actually a name for this phenomenon: Dixiefication. Sociologists have observed it throughout downwardly mobile white communities from South Africa to Northern Ireland and many places in between. It’s been seen among some extremist groups in Ukraine.

@Finch__Hatton @CSandbatch As a Southerner the Yee-hawification of the Yankees gives me a kind of sick satisfaction. Davis’ revenge from the grave.

I read this "dinergoth" essay and really didn't see much wrong with the characterization. Disappearance of regional styles in favor of this kind Lynchian underbeast is more to do with the "DIY" hipster wave being the most dignified analogue available to middle americans.

@SketchesbyBoze I was raised (more or less entirely in America) by a former royal correspondent (mom) and a media exec who worked heavily with the BBC (dad). I’m very glad to have been steeped in British culture.
English
The fading of the UK from American culture in the past decade has been a terrible loss. We need to raise kids on the Beatles and Tolkien and Doctor Who so they can grow to be adults who love Beowulf and Belle & Sebastian and Kenneth Branagh and Bleak House.
Christopher@molochofficial
"tumblr anglophilia" was just one of a hundred manifestations of the broad pushback in the late oughts against the "vulgar" pop culture of the Bush years (playboy-bunny reality tv bimbo aesthetic, 50 Cent, Ed Hardy, post-9/11 patriotism, Fergie, Los Angeles in general, etc)

@_mgriisser @zhuphilia They still have them they’re called engineering departments.

@zhuphilia Universities can't even have student prisons anymore. Because of woke.
