Why not?

But all media narratives since the last two decades have written by women and faggots, and they have no idea what to do with him. You can't take a character like Garruk and force-fit him into shitty fanfiction-tier plots that all revolve around interpersonal drama, self-actualization, and superficial romance. It's more than likely that all of WotC's media team consider everything Garruk is as toxic. What are they supposed to do with a guy who doesn't talk out his problems and refuses to team up or make friends with the other characters?

They tried to remedy this issue by not-so-subtley attempting to replace Garruk with a cooler, more relatable, minority-coded (obviously) girlboss who conjured her own magical nature spirits for help, which is a lot nicer than those meanie hunts Garruk would do.

Literally nobody liked her, because everyone just wanted Garruk back. They printed like 6 or 7 of these Vivien cards, and all people kept asking over and over was "Where's Garruk?" There was a solid decade where WotC just pretended he'd never existed. And all along that period, they were vomiting out crappy story updates featuring Vivien girlbossing her way across the planes and putting the beatdown on bad guys without being antisocial enough to not remind the rest of the cast what a girlboss she is.

Nigel Farage is the leader of Reform UK, a far right party who are currently in the process of a serious bid to become the UK government. they are just straight up evil.

Count Binface is an intergalactic space warrior with a bin on his head. he likes to run as a novelty candidate in general and mayoral elections. a big thing he likes to do is run as a candidate against the incumbent prime minister:

(Also pictured: Boris Johnson, Elmo)

Anyway, in brief:

Nigel Farage is currently in the midst of a big scandal about his finances

He has decided to deal with this by 1) making a show of nobly resigning from parliament and then 2) immediately running in the resulting by-election

He has stated that he is letting 'the people' judge his actions and implied that if he wins that will prove that he has been exonerated in the court of public opinion

His goal was presumably to get a big resounding win over the other parties, proving that The People still love him.

the other parties have thus far decided that this is a 'vanity election' and, well, there is one very easy way to ensure that he will not beat any of them, and that is simply not to play.

and as a result the only person who has so far confirmed they are running against him is Count Binface. no matter the outcome this makes Nigel Farage look like, u know, a fucking clown.

Hey @adamtheredbeard did you notice the image suspiciously cut off before the end of the tweet? I wonder if that softlib had anything else to say...

I see a lot of tags from Communists gloating in the reblogs, very confident that they know better than this guy...

But I'd wager that basically none of them do. It isn't just a matter of historical knowledge, either. For instance, "#mediocre white men" is part of a push for a form of scientific racism (based on "correct" race ratios that are just made up), and you didn't notice.

we already know how things went in Cuba with the Castro regime, and how it's still going. Such a paradise that right up until obama decided to change the rules in retaliation for them voting for trump (that's my theory at least) we had people on homemade rafts risking their lives to get to the US. Not a thing folks do if they're living in a place worth living in.

folks may not be up to speed on Vietnam's current level of human rights repression,

South Africa is in the news currently enough that you should be able to see how they're doing without any difficulty,

And honestly I think they included Haiti as a joke, because seriously now.

[tumblr] is a flat circle.

Person 1: -posts-

To 2025:

Hell, they even cover the devastating heaviness of MASS SHOOTINGS without censoring or watering anything down.

They've been doing this for YEARS, and it's ALWAYS handled with dignity, respect, seriousness, understanding, and love.

This clip is from 1968 and discussed assassination after Bobby Kennedy died.

is the ability to process these things.

taking away the words for bad things

means when they HAPPEN- and bad things will still happen around us-

WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT THEM without the WORDS.

When the word is accurate, USE THE WORD. Say Death. Say Murder. Say Rape. Say Prison, say Riots, say War, Say Famines and Disease. Say Bigotry. Say Hate crime. Say Racism. Say Fascism. Say Abuse. Say Hurt. Say Pain. Say Grief. Say Fear.

We must not lose the Truth of what a word means.
