Long May He Reign

Is kindness really a virtue? I'm personally wasting myself away trying to be kind, I have nothing left for myself, and I just give and give and get nothing

And is rudeness a vice if the mere thought of it scares me into a deep fear, I live in fear of the idea of being rude, to my own detriment

Something about mediation is probably in order, but like all rudeness that isn't blunt sarcastic jokes feels wrong and like I am doing the moral equivalent of stabbing my dear friend with a knife

I love that you're going to add a puppy and make two distinct groups. The old and calm and The Problems.

i recently found out what the * * * that sometimes separates parts of a text is called and youre never gonna fucking believe it

Why does the KKK have to have the term grand wizard, like every time I want to make a high ranking wizards, I think oh he's the grand wizard, then I remember, that's the leader of the KKK, and I have to change it to royal wizard or something

Not the white European in the notes saying that I should still use the term grand wizard because it makes the KKK seem less serious...

They don't use Grand Wizard anymore, so you could steal it. Also even if they did still use it, fuck the KKK, dilute their ownership of the term. You could also use High Wizard, Lord Wizard, Great Wizard, Chief Wizard, or Master Wizard.

They still use the term, there are living people with the title. And I don't think I, as a white Midwesterner have any right to "reclaim" grand wizard as a term. Why do white people want so badly to be allowed to use KKK terms?

I don't think there's any need to be allowed? Or that reclaim is an appropriate word. It's not a slur. It's two words in the English language that a hate group used as one of their titles. If we avoid using them together forever that remains the only association people have with them. They don't get to pollute the language with their baggage forever.

"if we avoid using swastikas forever than Nazis remain the only association people have with them" <- this is what you are saying. The KKK killed thousands of people for crimes such as voting, running for office, making too much money as a Black person and opposing segregation, they are not something to invoke frivolously to destigmatize words

Think about it this way, would you be comfortable referring to a character as the fuhrer without taking account for the Nazi implications? If the answer is no, why are you okay with using the term grand wizard without thinking about the KKK implications

CAPTAIN JANEWAY JUST SAID RPF IS FINE???

In case you didn't know, RPF is short for Real Person Fiction, see the Fanlore page for more information. And while you're there, maybe also check out the Fanlore page for Kathryn Janeway.

Thanks Obama

Art.

Old iconic tumblr posts gather gimmick blog comments the way DNA mutations accumulate over time

This is why I love tumblr

watching the leftism leaving peoples bodies when you point out the sex offender registry is a grotesque violation of human rights

this is beautiful

I really want a sci-fi story to go with this.
