We Become Ourselves

just wanna say as someone who's Aboriginal that I think First Nations peoples have every right to be a little angry at white leftists (NOT Palestinians, people blaming Palestinians stfu) who ignored our anti-colonial movements for years but are now supporting the Free Palestine movement. If you, someone living in the US, Canada or Australia or Aotearoa, are serious about the liberation of Palestine then you NEED to be just as serious about justice and liberation for the First Nations peoples' who's stolen and colonised land YOU live on. If you're not serious about where YOU fit in the paradigm of anti-colonial work, fix it. Here's a good place to start: if you're a person living on occupied Indigenous lands, learn who's land it really is, and how you can help them as an ally.

the work begins at home - especially if your home belongs to someone else

I'm sure there's a better word for this. But Australia really is a Soft Colony™ of the US. like yeah the Brits colonised this land first, but the cultural and political imperialism the US has over our media, government legislation, and military is also colonialism. So much so that it's pretty much accepted that the Whitlam dismissal was engineered in part by the CIA. Not to mention all the actual evidence of US government intimation over Australian national policy AND the amount of US military bases here. Like....I'm begging Usamerican voters who are going to abstain from voting to please also consider how your elections effect Australians and other soft colonies of the US as well as nations the US is in conflict with.

Spooning is out, spatulaing is the next big trend. Slide up behind your partner and then launch them out of bed

make sure you use your feet to pry your partner off the bed first so they don't stick

if it was about 15 years ago i’d already have seen 12 different AMVs of chimera falin set to three days grace animal i have become on my feed but that just doesn’t happen anymore. because of woke

i was the first girl to get shrunk so small that they blew a bubble around me and i wasnt even big enough to break the tension in the soap and i floated away into the sky until it popped 100 meters up and i fell for what felt like years due to my low terminal velocity and when i hit the ground i wasnt even hurt and i joined an ant colony. since then ofcourse there have been many others.

"it turns out"

“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Truly an antique

what you have to understand about dungeon meshi is that the entire conflict basically boils down to "every character is autistic but in ways that clash so catastrophically horribly that everyone thinks everyone else is a nuclear-level threat"
