madame x (slutty version)

no matter how hard i try, nothing i write will ever be as fucked up as the stuff somebody who thinks they're creating a Wholesome AU with unexamined beliefs will make.

History isn't written by the victors it's written by the guys who write stuff down

And who told them to do that, exactly?

Are you insinuating that only winners are capable of creating propaganda or writing history books because that’s kinda an ill-informed take dude not gonna lie

The US lost the Vietnam war and yet as an American, surprise surprise, most of the stuff I read about it or information I even have access to about it is from an American perspective. Most of the English language information out there is from the American perspective. In some areas of the country children are still taught that we won the war. Propaganda and history writing by the losers is not a new thing. Ramses ii of Egypt lost the battle of kadesh big time but he still built gigantic friezes saying what a great job he did. The victors aren’t always the ones with the gigantic war memorials and super widely spoken language.

Tiktok marvel fans really will be out here like "movie fan SHOCKED because i'd rather watch superhero movie #54 in blue and not a sensual 1987 french horror film about a man discovering his wife may not exist set in what is gradually revealed to be a space station" as if you're supposed to agree that superhero movie #54 is the clear winner in this comparison

Love the idea of a story about a complex issue that's told from the perspective of something that cannot comprehend or care about the issue. The way the story would be sliced up and moments that a human would consider pointless would be focused on because the pigeon happened to be there would be hype as fuck

This is compelling. Consider me fucking compelled.

Final shot is the bird hearing, but not seeing, the sound of a .32 ACP pistol, and flying away in shock

Palestinians are indigenous to the Levant and the area that is now the state of Israel. They are genetically related to remains found at archeological sites in the area from before the Neolithic and they are related to Jewish populations in the Middle East. They have been there forever. Early Zionist writers acknowledged this. The myth that the Palestinian people are all ‘Arab colonizers’ and therefore do not belong on the land is a convenient myth to villainize them using Islamophobic and racist rhetoric, it goes against scientific and historical fact and their own oral history.

Absolutely fascinating use of free will. Was it always your life's goal to get electrocuted in the shower while your screams are drowned out by the screams of The Machine?

also have you, perchance, considered un-making it

we have to thank our brave soldiers in fandom who write gen fics. we have to thank our brave soldiers in fandom who write character studies and stories with no focus on romance or sex. we have to get on our knees and thank the brave soldiers in fandom who write about minor characters and friendship and family with no focus on romance or sex. i know it’s hard to care about characters in a world that seems to only revolve around ships but i see you. and i love you

i don’t care that you’re a transgender communist you shouldn’t be using the r word

You've heard of parallel play, now get ready for perpendicular play.

Hot cross buns?
