macheresin for the macherewin

apparently the Egyptian crashout was worse than the Mexican one lmao aside from the idiotic rioting they’ve also been blaming da JOOZ for the loss, claiming messi is a JOO, fifa is owned by JOOZ, and the referee was a JOO (whilst conveniently ignoring their team’s atrocious behaviour during the match that somehow did not result in any red cards whatsoever, their coach has a history of being stupid and violent on the pitch, and Egyptian fans attacked Argentinians at the fan zones)

The expectation that you will refer to a trans person by their preferred pronouns and name is not them ‘forcing you to accept them’ it is basic respect. You don’t have to like trans people, you don’t have to ‘believe’ our identities or whatever. You do have an obligation to treat us like people, though. If you had a 40 something cis male coworker named Bill and you repeatedly, pointedly and aggressively called him ‘Shirley’ and exclusively used she/her pronouns to refer to him, that would be a major HR problem. It is not persecution to have to show basic human decency.

I like when fic length/book length/movie length is its own punchline

hey bestie i think ur post might be charmed 'cause you aren't gonna fuckin believe what happened today

sad reality of the fanfic-to-published work economy is that the weirdest people are willing to do it. that's why there's now hundreds of shitty no plot cishet hate-to-love enemies-to-lovers books that are ex reylo fanfic. and it's not even good. that's because the people who wrote book-quality steve/bucky and kirk/spock fic are too normal to think to themselves "i should get this porn published". they're too busy working in local government offices

everyone I am happy to announce that the stevebucky fanfic author I had in mind while writing this post has officially reblogged it.

getting kicked off love island for just swimming in the pool and not talking to anyone

It is stupidly on brand for the last action of this fuckhead to be an act of obstructing democratic process to perpetuate a fascist regime.

Good to note!

the cliché of a character putting their hand on the wound after they've been just shot/stabbed on the stomach and it coming out bloody must NEVER die

I’m not Jewish but it’s cool to reblog this right?

Yes of course! That’s what it’s there for, we need allies particularly as antisemitism is on the rise again

To be clear when I post this on this blog, I mean ALL Jews. Racism against Jews is NEVER ok and there is no group of Jews who it is ok to discriminate against or mistreat or oppress or kill.

i'm still a leftist but in my experience women are viewed as expendable in leftist spaces, spoken over, treated as stupid, on a level that is astounding. you can get away with an enormous level of vitriolic hatred for women if you couch it in the right terms

Is anyone else seeing what’s on C-SPAN right now
