I relate to cher from clueless in the sense that I never know what to wear and I too want to get with 90s paul rudd
““My cousin Helen, who is in her 90s now, was in the Warsaw ghetto during World War II. She and a bunch of the girls in the ghetto had to do sewing each day. And if you were found with a book, it was an automatic death penalty. She had gotten hold of a copy of ‘Gone With the Wind’, and she would take three or four hours out of her sleeping time each night to read. And then, during the hour or so when they were sewing the next day, she would tell them all the story. These girls were risking certain death for a story. And when she told me that story herself, it actually made what I do feel more important. Because giving people stories is not a luxury. It’s actually one of the things that you live and die for.””

The Computer Room is such a weird concept nowadays but growing up in the 90s/00s we really had a whole ass room dedicated to our computer. Anthropologists 1000 years from now are gonna think we worshiped computers so much we had shrine rooms for them
we renamed it an office to try and pretend but we all know its a computer shrine still
“Even so, there were times I saw freshness and beauty. I could smell the air, and I really loved rock ‘n’ roll. Tears were warm, and girls were beautiful, like dreams. I liked movie theaters, the darkness and intimacy, and I liked the deep, sad summer nights.”
— Haruki Murakami, Dance Dance Dance
rupaul: *walks over to my table* hiii flora!
me, typing away at my laptop: hi ru!
rupaul: what are you working on honey?
me: well, the assignment was to write an analysis of a movie from a film-philosophical perspective, so I’m writing about “Solaris” and using Jacques Rancière’s theory about cinema in the aesthetic regime, proposing that “Solaris” gives the viewer a different frame of reference to the concept of reality when compared to representationalist art of the 19th century!
rupaul: uh-hu I see. Well you’ve been criticized a lot on this show for not showing versatility and hiding behind the discourse of well-known authors. How do you plan to improve that if you’re going to basically apply Rancière’s theory to this film and not offer any unique insight of your own?
me: *the shade button sound plays as clips of me looking stupid are edited together to make it seem like i’m speechless*
rupaul: Well, it looks like you’ve got your work cut out for you. alright, get to work!
me, stammering: thank you ru..
me once rupaul leaves: this is a mess. I’ve got to start from scratch. Now i’m STRESSED!! But I do NOT want to go out on that runway looking like an idiot with half-baked discourse

That was the autumn that I felt great sadness, Madame, I read a great deal and I walked about all by myself. I was in need of solitude.
