like it's about dean's anger and absolute certainty and righteousness, and then cas looks at him with anger but also almost resignation, i don't know why i try, i knew you would do this, endverse cas voice of course, and then that flash of horror and guilt but dean's still certain, still righteous. and then cas unbinds death and dean realizes that cas could have done that the whole time. this was nothing but a test. to see if he had even an ounce of loyalty to cas left. and he failed. and he's terrified but then cas doesn't even do anything to him. cas just leaves. there's no reason for cas to do anything to him because he can't do anything to cas. but any relationship they may have had is now dust

White Tumblr users being intimidated by Rap music is like the only thing on the planet that makes sense considering that the average Tumblr user is, like, white fujoshi of suburban middle class descent.

Rap is a very raw and earnest display of black struggle, culture, sexuality, politics, anger, competition (friendly and otherwise) etc. It's arguably just as much of a cultural lifestyle as it is art, and the subculture can be pretty unforgiving if you're not made for the cut. IE there is a reason the likes of Nas, Nicki Minaj, Lauryn Hill, and Jay-Z are well cemented in black culture rather than dudes like fucking Ja Rule and Flo Rida, despite the latter two having more radio friendliness. There's a reason that the most prolific white guys that were allowed to pass through the gates are consistently in community with black people and are just as defensive of protecting the sanctity of the culture as their black counterparts (IE El-p, Aesop Rock, Action Bronson, The Alchemist, Paul Wall, Vinnie Paz, and yes, even Eminem). None of us want the shit that happened to Rock n Roll to happen to Rap. It's not all complex and challenging, but there is a certain level of authenticity one needs to maintain in order to really pop off. You have to really pay attention and connect some dots to find cool stuff that resonate with you.

Meanwhile the average Tumblr user is like. White nerds writing RPF of Pop Punk dudes, calling very basic, neoliberal. lameass 60s flower power children ideas "Punk" when they're not, making very unfunny and disingenuous sex jokes round the clock, thinks MCR and other incredibly basic goofy theatre kid shit is the most authentic and gut wrenching portrayal of the gay/trans experience because of subtext when there are actual gay and trans artists making much cooler and more dynamic music in the year of our lord 2024 so there's no need to scrounge for scraps anymore, historical revisionists that thinks "emo" is a sacred LGBT support subculture that can be invaded rather than a commercial trend for whiney white dudes with straight hair that was riddled with arguably as many misogynists homophobes and pedophiles as the Rap industry (if not more), thinks any male display of vulnerability or emotional openness = being gay and gender conforming, despite not doing much else outside the realm of traditional masculinity, because anything outside the very rigid mold of patriarchal white supremacist gender roles automatically makes someone queer, and talks about killing and violence and cannibalism and other edgy dork shit while being too afraid to call their doctor to refill their meds.

Like yeah these are not people you want to give the aux to, invite to the cookout, or include in the blunt rotation. These are not people who have ever thought about cooking up sociological analysis and scholarly essays on Nas' Illmatic or Tupac's All Eyez on Me. They only have brainspace for Black Parade.

went to a discussion led by elliot page earlier today and there were many good things said but at one point the other presenter asked him "what's a cool thing about yourself that has nothing to do with being trans?" and he said "uhh this is all I've got going for me" and then paused before adding "if anyone has three oranges, I can juggle"
