i’ve heard a total of maybe 1.5 gorillaz songs in my life but the shit with murdoc is the funniest thing i’ve ever witnessed 

like, as i understand it: cartoon band is made of four people- nice blue hair guy with the big eyes, big guy who may be haunted???, the Most Adorable Girl and a pile of trash who kinda looks like the beatles. beatle trash dude somehow gets replaced with a minor villain from the powerpuff girls and everyone likes him better

Stages of understanding piracy:

Kid: Pirates are good! I wanna be a pirate!

Student: Pirates are actually bad because they steal things and break the law

Expert: Pirates are nuanced because many of them were disaffected sailors and escaped slaves only doing what they had to do to survive in a harsh society

Master: Pirates are good! I wanna be a pirate!

Grandmaster: Pirates had an advanced democratic, anarchistic society that valued indivual freedom, the community, and liberalist views, both on sea and on land. They have mostly targeted pre-capitalist opressive merchants and kingdoms, some of their most important figures being women (Mary Reed, Anne Bonny) and/or not harming innocents (Edward Thatch (“Blackbeard”))

This is what I was trying to imply by the “Pirates are good!” comment tbh

you want my hot take for the evening? people who dont like complainers just havent been exposed to good complaining, and will never know if they themselves have an inborn talent for the art of kvetching

good complaining is some combination of a) funny, b) animated and theatrical, c) insightful re: human foibles, d) inquiry into social trends and norms.it must ALWAYS involve at least a small degree of self awareness, and is often used to build camaraderie and maintain relationships.
