i am living. i remember you.

sherpas used to be treated like expedition partners that knew the land better than you because they were raised on it and now they’re treated like they are lowly disposable service workers setting up heated tents or spas for wealthy hikers who have no business on the mountain like they are collecting your nasty trash off one of the holiest and most sacred mountains in the world like do y’all understand that we see sagarmatha or mount everest as a living deity on earth while the rest of the world sees her as a conquest?

locals of nepal hold the belief that your karma is the strongest as you reach the peak of sagarmatha and the mountain gives to you the spiritual energy you carry within yourself—benevolent or malevolent. you violate the spiritual sanctity of the mountain with your trash and your hubris. you disrupt the spirits that have long dwelled there. if you must summit sagarmatha, it isn’t and shouldn’t ever be from a place of bragging rights or bucket list goals but as a spiritual journey to connect with the spirit of nature at its most powerful.

get off of her (mount everest)!!!

girl 'mount' is literally in the name

her non-colonial name is sagarmatha. get off of her. go home.

you actually feel gaslit when you try to tell white people of a certain age that pewdiepie, with a platform so vast and catering to youth, helped reinvigorate racism and casual dehumanization towards indians because they get all “omg you can’t blame One man for that” like yes i can actually :) we were very incrementally making our way past the gas station indian popularized by apu and indian creatives were finally being given legitimate and serious opportunities (like say what you will about aziz and mindy in hindsight but at the time that was a shift culturally) only for this dumb swedish pig to get online and spark that vile shit right back up. ask any indian with a modicum of pride in their heritage and they can tell you how uncomfortable pewdiepie made us with ourselves

I agree entirely except it’s generally better not to call someone a “Swedish pig” when you’re discussing racism. Because that’s … that’s racism.

bruh.

Bruh what? It is. Oh, it’s ok cause he’s a fucking asshole? That’s not how it works.

i’m not doing 2016 politics with you like you are off your fucking rocker telling a person from a colonized country that is directly impacted by his racism that i have to mind the way i talk about him when he didn’t mind the way he talked about my ENTIRE ethnic and cultural identity, so much so that children now peddle casual racism against me & mine. nobody has to play nice with their colonizers and those who uphold their colonizers. like we have done these exact political talking points as far back as 2012 and it is so tired.

pewdiepie was one of the harbingers of the alt right internet apocalypse i hate that skinny white man with all my heart

“i’m ending youtube vlogs to protect my son’s privacy” okay nazi weeaboo bitch boy. take your chuds with you.

if you've ever applied for a job you deserve 50 million dollars in financial compensation

Yasss who else is a kinda lame aimless adult in they mid to late 20s

(replying to my mutual's post about their day) We have to kill the people who make you suffer

It’s called ‘being able to see the corpse’

So if I put you in an L-shaped swimming pool, and you knew there was a corpse around the corner, you'd be fine?

loving the implication that I'm a little animal and you're a scientist putting me into various bodies of water to test my corpse:water ratio tolerance

I need a "girl who's gonna be okay" moment bad

fuuuck I could use a mysterious benefactor right now

Does anyone know what to do when you have no ambition or hustle or grind but also need to make money to live when every career in the world is now a miserable rat race.
