I’m tired of hearing people say “Disney’s Cinderella is sanitized. In the original tale, the stepsisters cut off parts of their feet to make the slipper fit and get their eyes pecked out by birds in the end.”
I understand this mistake. I’m sure a lot of people buy copies of the complete Grimm’s Fairy Tales, see their tale of Aschenputtel translated as “Cinderella”, and assume what they’re reading is the “original” version of the tale. Or else they see Into the Woods and make the same assumption, because Sondheim and Lapine chose to base their Cinderella plot line on the Grimms’ Aschenputtel instead of on the more familiar version. It’s an understandable mistake. But I’m still tired of seeing it.
The Brothers Grimm didn’t originate the story of Cinderella. Their version, where there is no fairy godmother, the heroine gets her elegant clothes from a tree on her mother’s grave, and where yes, the stepsisters do cut off parts of their feet and get their eyes pecked out in the end, is not the “original.” Nor did Disney create the familiar version with the fairy godmother, the pumpkin coach, and the lack of any foot-cutting or eye-pecking.
If you really want the “original” version of the story, you’d have to go back to the 1st century Greco-Egyptian legend of Rhodopis. That tale is just this: “A Greek courtesan is bathing one day, when an eagle snatches up her sandal and carries it to the Pharaoh of Egypt. The Pharaoh searches for the owner of the sandal, finds her and makes her his queen.”
Or, if you want the first version of the entire plot, with a stepdaughter reduced to servitude by her stepmother, a special event that she’s forbidden to attend, fine clothes and shoes given to her by magic so she can attend, and her royal future husband finding her shoe after she loses it while running away, then it’s the Chinese tale of Ye Xian you’re looking for. In that version, she gets her clothes from the bones of a fish that was her only friend until her stepmother caught it and ate it.
But if you want the Cinderella story that Disney’s film was directly based on, then the version you want is the version by the French author Charles Perrault. His Cendrillon is the Cinderella story that became the best known in the Western world. His version features the fairy godmother, the pumpkin turned into a coach, mice into horses, etc, and no blood or grisly punishments for anyone. It was published in 1697. The Brothers Grimm’s Aschenputtel, with the tree on the grave, the foot-cutting, etc. was first published in 1812.
The Grimms’ grisly-edged version might feel older and more primitive while Perrault’s pretty version feels like a sanitized retelling, but such isn’t the case. They’re just two different countries’ variations on the tale, French and German, and Perrault’s is older. Nor is the Disney film sanitized. It’s based on Perrault.
bastille has done more for the queer community by just making all of their love songs about "you" instead of specifying a gender than taylor swift has in all of her discography. thanks for coming to my ted talk.

you know how you can go and watch a movie you watched a bunch as a kid and the version of a song in it is different? like they actually changed it since you were a kid? that isn't normal. we didn't do that until like, the last ten years. it's fucked up.
We all know this site is US-user heavy, but I wanna know how many are vs aren't from the land of capitalism.

Advice from someone who lost everything suddenly in the blink of an eye.
Take pictures of everything in your life
For yourself, when you are happy or even sad, with your family and friends, at your work, in the café you prefer, in the parks and streets you love,
record the voice of your loved ones and your laughter together, birthdays, anniversaries, wedding parties, pictures of your favorite meal, pictures of your plants and pets, pictures of your house and every corner of it, pictures of all your beautiful memories as a child, and do not forget to document a photo album of you and your family and save it in a folder or cards.
Pictures of your certificates, and everything you are proud of,
Pictures of sunrise and sunset between your neighbors' homes.
As you envision all of this, be grateful for these blessings.
There are people "and I'm one of them" who have lost those things in the blink of an eye. All I have left is a photo album, and I bite my fingers regretting that I didn't take more pictures.
BE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR LIFE and take more pictures 🙏
🥹Oh beautiful world, please do not neglect to read my story below👇
I am Abdallah from Gaza, a university student. I am 20 years old. Our life before the war was a beautiful and happy life, but the war came and our dreams were destroyed, and life has become very difficult. We get water with difficulty and the food is contaminated. There is little bombing everywhere. Violence is present in all places. You can change my life and help me escape from... The war I will post some of the pictures I took
My university has been completely destroyed. I will put pictures for you now, and my dreams have been destroyed with them. One of my dreams was to become a doctor, but now, unfortunately, it has become very difficult, but now only you can make this dream a reality.

"Vastaajien negatiiviset kokemukset terveydenhuollosta liittyivät tilanteisiin, joissa heitä oli kohdeltu eri tavoin epäasiallisesti ja asenteellisesti. Hoitovaihtoehdoista ei esimerkiksi ollut keskusteltu heidän kanssaan vaan hoitotoimenpiteet oli vain ilmoitettu heille, heitä oli pyritty painostamaan tai heille oli tehty toimenpiteitä ilman, että niistä oli kerrottu heille etukäteen.
Näiden vastaajien kokemuksia terveydenhuollosta ympäröi vaihtoehdottomuuden, salailun, painostuksen ja pakon tunnelma. Keskeinen kokemus oli se, ettei vastaaja ollut saanut mahdollisuutta osallistua omaa tai lapsensa hoitoa koskevaan päätöksentekoon. Negatiivisiin kokemuksiin liittyi myös olennaisesti se, että hoidoille ei ollut selkeää terveydellistä perustetta.
Vastaajilla oli tällaisia kokemuksia myös 2010-luvulta, ja myös koskien lasten sukupuolipiirteitä muokkaavaa kirurgiaa. Vastaajien kokemukset osoittavat, että vakava huoli intersukupuolisten lasten perus- ja ihmisoikeuksien toteutumisesta suomalaisessa terveydenhuollossa on yhä ajankohtainen."

Rising from the dead to share this painting and then disappear again
I have spent over 90 hours of my life on this thing because I have had the brain rot for the last 2 years of my life (almost 20 if you count when I first read the comics) and it had to express itself somehow
Hope this dramatic bitch feels appreciated
(A Dream of Morpheus, handmade egg tempera on panel, 12x18 inches...if by any chance you'll be at SDCC or Gen Con, I'll be at booth 934/936 at the first one and Art Show #13 at the second one - come see the original, maybe get a print, or just yell/cry about Sandman with me?)
And here, have some more details - I had fun combining some favorite elements from both the comic and the show ♡
another option:
turning it into a windows 95 logo is also acceptable.
I think some people forget that some literature and some media is meant to be deeply uncomfortable and unsettling. It's meant to make you have a very visceral reaction to it. If you genuinely can't handle these stories then you are under no obligation to consume them but acting as if they have no purpose or as if people don't have a right to tell these stories, stories that often relate to the darkest or most disturbing parts of life, then you should do some introspection.
Niin runollista
hei muutes jos oot alle 30v, ja sulla on tällä hetkellä elämä vituillaan, tarttisit ehkä jotain tekemistä sun aktivoimiseksi että pystyisit olemaan ihmisiksi, tai oot ihan kujalla kelan lippulappusten kanssa, tai vaikkapa ihan vaa työn/koulunhaku ei luista, mene ohjaamoon!
sinne voi vaa kävellä suoraan sisään ilman ajanvarausta ja vaa kertoa mihin tarttet apua (tosin kannattaa tarkistaa sinun lähimmän pisteen aikataulut, koska eri päivinä voi olla eri asiantuntijoita paikalla)
siellä on maailman ihanimmat ihmiset jotka auttaa sua selvittämään että mitä sun pitäis tehä, ja sun kanssa kattoo kaikki kelan mystiset lappuset läpi, ja neuvoo aikalailla kaiken aikuisuuden byrokratian kanssa.
ovat itteeni auttanut niin monen ongelman kanssa että mun on pakko tätä sanomaa levittää. ilman niitä en ois päässy siihen pisteeseen missä nyt olen.
Again, read Pratchett instead.
