a couple years ago the eric carle museum of picture book art had an exhibit on diane & leo dillon who are responsible for so many iconic illustrations. i went back twice just to see the collection again. this is a sliver of their workβ€” it’s hard to find high res images.

My problem with all those memes hating on electroswing is that many of them implicitly identify "contaminating" swing with EDM influences as the genre's central problem, when the real problem is that most self-labelled electroswing artists clearly know fuck all about swing.

Like, there's no intrinsic problem with the idea of swing-style EDM. That's a perfectly cromulent notion. The trouble is that in order to properly make it, you first have to actually know what swing is.

you can't talk to me that way actually. listen sir i type up longass, cited replies to internet arguments and then never post it because i'm too exhausted by the idea of conflict & besides nobody knows how to read anymore. and i'll let you know, by the way, i'm always 10000% right in all of those answers and i have an undefeated smackdown rate of one thousandbillion. so really before you say anything just remember im going to write a big paragraph about it and then delete it

I'M A HUGELY HORRIBLE HOUSE MY NAME is a tantalizing chain of syllables that you will never learn but would not easily forget, LIVING WITH ME WOULD BE… a heartbreaking yet ultimately rewarding experience a fun way to kill an hour, maybe yourself honestly just a really bad idea because I AM... full of broken glass slightly less sound than I could stand to be a charmless, cheeky prank that could go wrong at any moment… A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT CARE TO KNOW ABOUT ME: I'm on the f&&cking brink I'm pretending not to know you Large swathes of my insides are covered in a tasteful, non-tiling terazzo pattern, so prying me apart by my visible seams is pretty much your only means of escape, lol. ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT I CAN BE FOUND Sitting pretty in The Swamp trapped within an executable that refuses to execute slipping across some frictionless surface or another eating handfuls of mica-rich gravel as if it were candy I think that you should break my windows tread without caution or care I think that you will never be me

before you make that post about "the crisis facing men and boys" or "preventing redpill radicalization" stop and check in:

is your proposed solution

  1. increased labor of women and girls
  2. women and girls enduring more abuse for the benefit of men and boys
  3. women and girls suppressing their emotions (fear, anger, resentment, etc.) and limiting their speech
  4. blaming populations of women (e.g. trans women, women involved in sex trades, racialized women) for the actions of men and expecting these women to endure punishment for men
  5. focusing on maintaining manhood and masculinity while reducing the discomfort men feel about holding this position; framing men's feelings of insecurity as the central issue to be addressed when it comes to violent misogyny

if so:

your "solution" to behavioral patterns emerging within patriarchy is more patriarchy.

instead:

try to imagine literally anything else.
