epic fail and cringe, but I stay silly :3

Then there is the YouTuber talking about Transformers, casually dropping the "Iraq war aesthetic" like it's a color palette. Desert punk. Military core. A vibe. This is what happens when your country hasn't had a war on its own soil in living memory; the violence becomes media, a backdrop for childhood toys. The explosions are no longer the sound of mothers screaming; they are cool action sequences. They are digesting the visual debris of massacre as a nostalgic fashion choice, scraping the trauma off and compressing it into a genre for their retro-futurist fantasies. The apocalypse becomes a mood board.

And finally, the girl recounting celebrity love triangles from her childhood, flippantly mentioning how the U.S. was "busy with the Iraq war or whatever." Or whatever. That single phrase is the thesis statement of American innocence. Over a million dead, a region destabilized for a century, an endless river of grief; and for her, it was the commercial break between pop culture segments. It didn't raise her rent. It didn't stop her Wi-Fi. The violence is geo-locked to brown skin and distant deserts, just background noise like a refrigerator humming. She has the luxury of forgetting because the machine doesn't eat her children, it eats yours.

I'm really really really really really really really sorry I'm doing this today. I'm almost definitely going to lose my home. fees are paid up bills are paid up but my roommate made a scene thats 100% going to count as several violations and we're going to be evicted

you don't have to feel pressured to do anything. I'm fed up with begging and with feeling so terrible about having to do it all the time. it is what it is. if you want to help out the information is the same as usual. right now it's just. survival money

Still one of the best animations I've ever done. Took just under a week and was equal parts fun and challenging. So here are some process passes! The full version had too many colors so I had to do some compression T0T

And this forces you to decide whether your autonomy matters to you more than the approval of the group - while they'll still act like you're on thin ice either way, if you give in at this point they know you're theirs forever, because now they've established a foothold, you've shown a moral weakness, which they will brand you with so it can be used against you in the future ("hey RICE-addict here doesn't want help break into the city records office") to force you to double-down and isolate you further.

As I've gone over my car is kind of fucked right now and not drivable or repairable at the price I can afford. I'm fundraising for a month's transit costs roughly, the expense of the tows/"repair"/first week of ubers, and for some of the down-payment. Ubers on my commute average $25-30, and I have a little saved for the down-payment. For this week the goal is $250 at least, as well as ideally the unmet goal from previous weeks. I'm making weekly posts in hopes that this will encourage donations. I'm also dealing with unexpected expenses and trying to secure housing after getting out of a hostile and discrimatory housing situation with my landlord.

Unmet goal from previous weeks: 254

Combined goal of previous weeks and this week: 504

$FaeKhawal and ko-fi.com/rosebijoumme are my paylinks. I prefer cashapp because kofi takes a cut from me. I also have venmo and PayPal but those have my dead name, so dm me if you want to use those. You can also go directly through gfm, which will be linked in a reblog.

i have sold plasma already. i have sold my belongings. i have been applying to jobs like crazy but it just isn't panning out. please help me, even just a buck or two. anything given will go straight toward medication, rent, and gas, with anything over the goal going to groceries. i don't mean to be pitiful but my family will hurt me and homelessness in texas is dangerous especially in the summer. thank you all so, SO MUCH for your help in the past, i am so close to getting out of this hellhole.

commissions will be done as soon as i can finish them. please give me patience while i claw my way back to being human again. thank you

WHY, specifically, is it black peoples' facial expressions that are seen as just so comical or exaggerated? analyze the history of this nation's comedy and tell me why you might be predisposed to thinking of black peoples' faces as just, "more emotive" or exaggeratedly funny than a white or nonblack person's

and throughout those years, 00s-10s, many black bloggers -- victims of the mass staff-led purge (under the cover of them being 'russian' while reichblr still exists) -- they DID tell us it was a problem, DID try to educate people who freak out at the insinuation of 'being racist,' DID argue, DID point out the duplicity and the appropriation and the gross equivalence of african american slang with unintelligence, goofiness, etc. and they were ignored, abused, cancelled, chased off, until being eventually mass deleted by our racist transmisogynistic staff.

we didn't do enough, and the generation after us gen z "kids" didn't stop the trend. using the '-ahh' suffix. rizz. no cap. ate. delulu. it's giving. it's serving. crash out. lock in. aura. tea. main character. bruh. slay. real. keep it 100.

all of the following images are or were popular reaction images! what do they all have in common?
