92 | Goblinski režim » Goblin mode LAJFSTAJ L / L I FESTYLE mrzi da stavite hranu na tanjir. Ili izađite izkuceupidžami i čarapama samodabisteuzeli nešto iz kioska. Radi seopotpunomodsustvuestetike. Jer zašto bi goblina bilo briga kako izgleda?Zaštobi goblinubilo stalo do prezentacije? Ovo zapravo predstavlja direktan odmak od uticaja „cottagecore“ trenda iz ranih pandemijskih dana 2020, koji je uključivao pastelne boje, ruralne pejzaže i korisne veštine kucne izrade kao što su kuvanje ili vez. Ali kako je pandemija potrajala a haos aktuelnihdogađaja bivao sve gori, ljudi su se osetili prevarenim i počeli da odbacuju takve ciljeve. Termin je uzeo maha pošto je pandemija eliminisala potrebu da non-stop brinete o svomizgledu. Nazovite to promenom vibracije ili logičnom progresijom u nihilizam nakon godina razočaranja izazvanogpandemijom, ali goblinski mod je tu da ostane. A zašto ne bi? Kog smo uopšte pokušavali da impresioniramo?Kao što jedan#goblinmode kaže: „Ako ne možete da se nosite sa mnom kao goblinom, ne zaslužujete me ni kad sam u najboljem izdanju.“ Opsednutost perfekcionizmom i samousavršavanjem zaistamože biti veoma iscrpljujuca The culture's obsession with perfectionism and selfimprovement can be very exhausting media during2022. It shot toprominence after a fake headline claimed that the rapper formerly known as KanyeWestandJuliaFoxhadbroken upafter she “went goblinmode”.The Twitter user who made up the Fox quote as a joke said that, while the headline was fake, she believes goblinmode is a very real phenomenon. It seemingly captured the prevailing mood of individuals who reject the idea of returning to ‘normal life’, or who rebelled against the increasingly unattainable aesthetic standards and unsustainable lifestyles presented on social media. The term’s popularity may also be linked to growth among new social media sites like BeReal, where users are invited to post a photo of whatever they’reactuallydoingonceaday at random. Goblinmode"embracesthecomforts of depravity,"wroteTheGuardian’s Kari Paul inMarch, attributing the rising popularity of the term to "the third year of the pandemic and the feared launch of World War Three”. The hashtag #goblinmode is often used on TikTok as a way of rebuffing the “be the best version of you" trend, or the tendency to rise early to exercise and drink organic green smoothies – and, of course, to post all the details on social media. This new phrase that’s entered the zeitgeist embraces the comforts ofdepravity: spending theday inbed while scrolling endlessly throughsocial media, pouring the end of a bag of crisps straight into your mouth; eatingover thesinkbecauseyoucan’t be bothered to put your food on a plate; leaving thehouse inyour pyjamas and socks just to pick up something from the local shop. It’s about a complete lackof aesthetic. Because why would a goblin care what they look like; whywould they care about presentation? The trend represents adirect departure fromthehyper-curated “cottagecore” influence of the early days of the pandemic, whichwas a standouttrendof2020that includedpastel colours, rural landscapes and showcasingwholesomehomemakingskills like baking and embroidery. But as the pandemic grinds on endlessly, andthechaosof currenteventsworsens, people feel cheated andhave rejected such goals. The term took off as pandemic fatigue eliminated the need to keep up appearances. Call it avibe shift or a logical progression into nihilism after years of pandemic induceddisappointment, but goblinmode is here to stay. And whynot?Whowerewe trying to impress anyway? As one #goblinmode audio says: “If you can’t handle me in goblin mode, you don’t deserve me at my best”. FOTO: Profimedia / Costfoto / ddp USA
