I'm so sad I am missing DnP's tour for the first time, (but very grateful that the reason is my partners and I will have a newborn at the time they'll be in my city!)

I decided to cope by making some buttons :3 you can order them if you want. Or just look at them. I'm gonna post the ones I made for TIT as well.

Much love to you all 💜

Image description:

1. "Hard Monday" in white text on a purple background with black glitchy imagery behind it.

2. "One hundred percent" in white text on a purple background. the background says "100%" in several fonts

3. Button has a check/glitchy background. Text reads "we've breached containment!" in bold, white text with a yellow danger sign in the bottom right.

4. Button reads "here's the thing!" in white text on a news-inspired light purple background

5. Button reads, "launchin' hard or hardly launchin'" in white text on a black background with subtle hearts

6. Button reads "diva that's science" in pink and purple text on a fabric background

⚠️FLASH WARNING⚠️

⚔️ORIGINAL BABYMETAL DEATH AT BABYMETAL BEGINS - CLEAR NIGHT (DAY 2)⚔️

what can be proven is that in no situation under united states law is an individual legally obligated to lend their body or organs for the sake of another life. 

4.5 million people each year are in need of blood transfusion, the entire process of donating blood takes a little over an hour, it’s free, and a single pint of blood can save up to 3 peoples lives, but there is no legal obligation or requirement to donate blood in place. 

it is illegal to take organs from deceased peoples’ bodies without permission. CORPSES. bodily integrity is prioritized by law, even after death.

it doesn’t fucking matter whether a fetus is a person, whether a fetus is alive, whether a fetus has a soul. it literally doesn’t matter. pro-lifers set up the argument through that lens (hence their name) to evoke empathy and pity and take the focus away from the actual process of pregnancy, which changes a person’s body FOREVER. that is not an exaggeration. whether the pregnancy is complicated and high-risk or totally smooth sailing, the birthing person will physically never be the same. if they’re lucky, they’ll come out of it with weight gain, differently shaped breasts, and changes to the cervix/vagina. if they aren’t, there’s a fucking laundry list of potential complications that could arise, that may eventually fix themselves, need surgical or therapeutic intervention, or never go away, like varicose veins, separation of the abdominal muscles, incontinence, prolapse, diabetes, postpartum depression, and chronic pain, just off the top of my head. and this makes no mention of the very real possibility of income disruption, as well as the financial cost of giving birth, and the chance of fucking death, which is even higher for underserved communities like black women.

(* hai minasa   n konnichi   wa? watakushide    su!!!!)

he uses the personal pronoun watakushi, but it's written as ワタ94 (since 9 and 4 are read as ku and shi respectively. 4 and 9 are also unlucky numbers in japan!). he also says 'death' and 'die' a lot... like in plain english. it's kinda scary?

(* mina diesuki [[nunbāwa sērusuman 1997]])

(* daijōbu death batsu wa atarimasen)

'death' and desu are pronounced the same when spoken, same with 'die' and dai. so instead of daisuki, spamton says DIEsuki, and i think that's wonderful. another specific great thing is him saying "豪華賞品" (gōka shōhin) meaning "luxurious prizes", but he spells it as "業火賞品", which is pronounced the same, but the first part translates to something like 'hellfire'. lmao

spamton isn't the only one who got wacky localization treatment, too!! all of queen's dialogue is formatted like html comment tags, and she only uses katakana and kanji. it's pretty common for characters with robotic or otherwise strange sounding voices to speak using only katakana; it's kinda like writing things in all caps in english? and of course, her helmet says www instead of 'LMAO'. it's perfect

I watched the Shanghai special with english subs here.

Here’s a link to Truth with English subs.

If you see someone using this image to “prove” that the attack on capitol was orchestrated by antifa, don’t believe it. the man with the short hair is Matthew Heimbach. He is a neo-nazi, and planned the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville. Click here for his wiki article.  He was posted on the Philly antifa website to announce him as a nazi.

Here is the second fake photo.

This man was NOT a pro-BLM protestor. Here is the full version of the picture on the right. 

This man is Jake Angeli. He is a QAnon influencer, also called the “Q Shaman.” Q (Qanon) is a far-right conspiracy theory. You can read more about it here.

Here are some links about him:
