when the new madoka movie comes out in theaters let's all go to the theaters and ask for madoka's salvation. the look on madoka's face will be that of a 14 year old girl and not a god

today is the 81st anniversary of the bombing of hiroshima. august 9 is the 81st anniversary of the bombing of nagasaki. please take some time to remember the lives that were destroyed in these senseless attacks. it's also important to remember that there is no limit to what the united states is willing to do to any people it considers an obstacle to its imperial interest and there is no limit to what it will say in attempt to justify these atrocities.

If you ever feel like you don’t matter just know there’s a tumblr mutual who thinks about you when they hear a certain band, see a certain color, show, book, or even just see a post that reminds them of something you might like even though they’re across the world from you

c. fred alford’s what evil means to us enormously soothing because one area of discourse that has been frustrating me enormously which is that all explanations for harm and violence seem to resist one explanation that is obvious to me from when people have hurt me, which is that often they do it because they liked it and it brings them pleasure. it can make you feel crazy to have this so consistently denied, told people are only hurtful against their will, for reason of x y and z impersonal social force. has no one in fandom been on the receiving end of real sadism that you can observe and feel, done with no compulsion and no material concrete gain? really? is it so unimaginable? what a life! you see this resisted in for example my current fandom discourses: characters on this show cannot be violent because they were not “taught” to be violent, war is not “natural” because violence is not “natural” to humans and you can see this because war has to be maintained through an unequal social order etc. and i just go hm, false! or incomplete. this has to be factored in, and can’t just be vanished because it’s difficult to confront. people resist this because obviously this answer - human beings can derive pleasure from inflicting harm on others - seems like it leaves you with notions of innate evil exclusive to certain designated psychological categories of human and cuts out the way social structures absolutely shape and determine violence, which is always an error. but what a relief to have someone say, yes willfully inflicted violence is a pretty observable feature of human beings, and the simplest answer is that no, it does not inherently horrify us all, that some people do it because it appears to bring some benefit, perceived or actual. and it doesn’t mean casting people who do so out behind the human, the transformative proposition here is actually all understand and sympathize with the emotional structures fundamental to human existence that might drive a person to find such relief in inflicting harm.

dont talk to me or my clone or my shadow self or my reflection or my me ever again
