paranoia is in bloom

can everyone get woke again. I miss her. I miss woke.

and by woke I mean aware of racism. the original meaning. don't do stupid bullshit here. woke = aware of racism . ok

I do not like how people will see a place that's explicitly misgendering trans women via exclusionary policies and then focus primarily on the implicit misgendering of the people who aren't being excluded by the place that excludes trans women.

And yes I support all violent acts by Hamas and Hezbollah towards the Zionist entity

If you've watched Israel in action for the past 3 years and still don't understand why Hamas and Hezbollah are both necessary and justified then you're a lost cause

Knowing about the monstrosity that is the US Empire allows you to see many kinds of horrors in daily life that can never be overlooked, but one of the most mundane yet weird ones is scrolling through feeds and seeing art of a character in a US-flag themed shirt or bikini or whatever. It really is like the equivalent of getting jumpscared by art of someone on a vacation or at the beach strolling around with an SS armband or an Iron Cross while everyone acts like this is normal. Abolish and purge all US related imagery, iconography and merchandise from public life asap!

just so we’re clear if you’ve never actually seen a cybertruck in person and have only seen photos of them i cannot stress enough how much worse they look in real life. like i honestly don’t know how it’s possible. most things look basically the same in pictures and in real life. but as stupid and ugly as cybertrucks look in photos, every person i’ve spoken to who has seen one in real life agrees that they somehow look even worse in person. and i know you’re thinking to yourself “tah they already look so bad in photos, how can they possibly look even worse in person?” I DONT KNOW. the first time i saw one on the road i was on a phone call and i literally cut myself off in the middle of a sentence just to be like “oh my GOD.” just an incredibly, laughably, unbelievably bad vehicle. i’ve never experienced anything like it. they’re just so bad

there are people on this site who genuinely believe that there isn't an insane amount of hype around the harry potter hbo series because "i haven't seen ANYONE talking about it!" in their bubble of the internet...and they're also the people who believe that hogwarts legacy flopped and didn't make $1 billion as one of the best selling games of all time...we need a recalibration here, like it doesn't serve anyone to insist upon this other reality where harry potter isn't still the cultural juggernaut that it is.

too many people think fascism is just evil for evil's sake when its actually comfort and justification for your biases, so when they get seduced by it they deny being fascist because they dont see themselves as evil.

favorite thing about tumblr is having a fandom in law. no i haven't watched this show and i'm not planning to. but my moot is having fun!! look how much they love it!!! i'm supportive from the sidelines!

too many people have the idea that racism is a nothingburger thing. like. people die from that. it’s not “cancel culture” to call out racism. and if you’re white and you say anything close to that you have some serious self-reflecting to do. idc if you’re a content creator. idc if “it could happen to you.” having a platform on the internet and saying stupid bullshit doesn’t make you more oppressed than the marginalized groups you’re criticizing for being upset

you would think, like, "oh, we've already thought of all the metaphorical ways we can say penis/vagina. we've already come up with the full list of nicknames. we have exhausted the list of innuendos. there is nothing else new to be said about this" and then you'll open a random explicit fic and make the most improbable linguistic discovery of all time

would you like to share with the class 🤔

saw the term "gummy walls" last night and had to sit alone with god for a minute

would you like to unshare with the class

whenever people complain about a white male character being erased or ignored or forgotten or underrated or w/e i can't help but laugh bc it's like wow..... the cards were stacked in his favour & he still couldn't hack it..... that's so embarrassing for him
