Have a Pink day!

this may be a hard pill to swallow for some people but like. 90% of the fires in australia wouldn’t be happening right now if people had just fucking listened to indigenous peoples

literally just. give us our FULL sovereignty back over these areas half of them aren’t even inhabited and almost none of them have ANY cultural significance to white australia (not that that should even matter cause it’s. aboriginal land and it always will be but whatever). give us control over them and shit like this won’t happen and our communities will heal.

Is OP implying the fires are the result of some kind of Aboriginal curse or something? Is the continent itself breaking out in fever in an attempt to cleanse itself of white people? Do the Aboriginals have some effective anti-wildfire strategy that the white people are too arrogant to listen to?

we had landcare practices to prevent shit like this. we’d burn the forest litter/hazardously flammable stuff in the cooler months to prevent massive forest fires happening. when our lands were invaded we could no longer implement these practices and now the leaf litter will build up and set on fire again and again and now the forest fires will be huge.

Its scientifically proven that Aboriginal people didn’t suffer from wild bushfires, pre invasion. And its also proven that back burning (burning parts of the land per season) actually encourages new life and promotes animal breeding. Aboriginal science outweighs white science.

Plot twist: The peoples that have actually been living in Australia for thousands of years, surprisingly, have got this shit figured out

This speaks to me on a fucking spiritual level.

there were so many ways to do this well. It’s even in character for some characters to make shitty jokes about it (Have you met Rocket?). But at almost every decision, around it they chose a terrible option, straight down to the damn fatsuit that looked fake and shiny.

at least i dont watch anime

I hate that we’ve circled back to hierophlyphics

So Civil War takes place over like one weekend and then Black Panther takes place over the following 5 days or so which means all in all it was a hell of a fucking week for T’Challa

Prince T’Challa and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Week

Ironman 2, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, and the waking up from the ice scene for Captain America was all in one week too(Fury’s big week). so I’m imagining that the MCU occasionally just has these super busy weeks where everything just goes nuts

#and then sometimes nick gets energy readings about the world’s imminent end #from london or hong kong or missouri #and then it quiets down #and he stops glaring at the readouts#and is like yeah that’s right you’d better fucking not

what if the teenage mutant ninja turtles exist in the mcu but they’re just really good at staying under the radar and criminals are too embarrassed to admit they got beat up by some guys in “turtle costumes” so they blame daredevil. peter parker worked as a pizza delivery boy for a while and brought like eight pizzas to a man hole cover but thought nothing of it bc nyc

fun fact: it’s TMNT canon that the chemical container that hit Matt Murdock across the face and gave him his Daredevil abilities is the same canister that landed on the baby turtles and mutated them, so…..y’all aren’t far off

i’m sorry it’s WHAT
