send it to political baby, "weighing in on discourse" as a profession is unsustainable

me talking about @amadoarchive
Beyoncé on CÉCRED's success: "I’m the founder, visionary, and sole investor—not the face or model for this brand. [It] performed so incredibly that the people who can’t stand my music still use Cécred, haaaa! … because it works."

When you build your brand on being smarter than others as opposed to being driven by genuine intellectual pursuit, that’s how you’ll spend your days putting every possible thing down to look good

I came out of twitter finger retirement for this, my newer mutuals have never seen this side of me
I have never wanted a drag this bad before , I’m really getting into this twitter drag culture thing. She’s actually very insufferable I can’t stand it.

The “fight against anti-intellectualism” on this app is just a bunch of word salad chefs trying to enforce authoritarianism while forgetting the very principles of intellectualism: nuance, critical analysis, context, and individualism. A clear case of “you no go school reach me”

Unexpected orders are the best 🥹🥹 I love customers that immediately open their wallets not a single question asked

being an intellectual also includes being kind(emotional intelligence). you’ll do more harm than good when you’re condescending and cruel to individuals.

This is why I love literature. There are so many ways to look at things without one interpretation necessarily invalidating the others. In fact, a good literature teacher will tell you that a text can have multiple valid interpretations. The goal isn’t always to arrive at one definitive answer, but to explore different perspectives and interrogate them.

I fear it’s addiction to twitter validation that is behind the behaviour we’ve seen re: being unnecessarily mean, and looking for every opportunity to assert intellectual superiority

We can argue it’s satirical, allegorical, and many more in favor or against. But have we considered the fact that, it was heralded as the greatest love story for the longest time even though it had other elements, and it became a form of description for love, even for the layman?

this romeo and juliet thing is such a non issue like what? i feel like you guys are obsessed with proving that you’re smarter than everyone else and it ends up making you look dumb in the process

The whole reason Romeo and Juliet is a classic has been because of how complex of a story it is and people have debated it forever. It’s why we use it for analytical writing. Maybe you think it’s sweet some kids would die for their love, maybe you think they dont knw what love is
as a student of literature, i find no attraction to the insistence on a singular interpretation of romeo & juliet. sontag warned us against this philitinism, even so to allow a functional mode of understanding. tragedy can be subverted, including its ugliness.

The intellectual superiority and tendency to punch down actually reveal the limitations of intelligence itself. Academic success is only one measure of intelligence; emotional intelligence, empathy, humility, self-awareness & the ability to engage with others

Imagine attacking someone for being willfully ignorant but this is your defense. Rule for me and not for thee thinker, we aren’t the fools you think we are. Hypocrites
People love stretching truths; reposting something to your story and adding your own comment is NOT quite the same as tagging someone. :| if you want to lash someone, do so. But mischaracterizing it isn’t fair.

All I know is that Shakespeare is for the people, not snobs.
Can't believe Romeo and Juliet is causing all this drama
