Since Yall Seemed To Like The Other Ones So Much

Since y’all seemed to like the other ones so much

This AmberDepp case has proven to me that you guys only care about the “perfect victim” because how is amber heard recounting how she was brutally assaulted by Depp and people are laughing at her.

Amber is in tears, choked up, and barely able to catch her breath. This livestream has a live chat. the entire live chat is laughing and mocking her as she describes the abuse. This is one of the crudest and most malicious displays of culturally & socially validated misogyny.

The thing that distinguishes Tumblr shitposts from shitposts on other social media platforms isn't the content, it's the register. The hairpin code-switching between very formal and very vulgar speech – the kind of speech that will use the words "increasingly" and "fucktrumpet" in the same sentence.

I’m not a classicist, but I suspect one of the reasons so many of the Greek gods are portrayed so unflatteringly was less because they were seen as villains than because they represented their domains.  Of course Zeus sometimes misuses his power, that’s what a king does.  Of course Artemis’s wrath is wild and painful, that’s what nature can be.  Of course Hades snatched away a young girl from her mother’s arms, that’s what death does.  This is one of the reasons callout posts for some gods comparing them negatively to ‘nicer’ gods are kind of missing the point.
