Need y’all to know that in the 1970’s a letter to the editor was published in Daily Telegraph where the author offhandedly used the phrase “Tolkien-like gloom” to describe an area with barren trees and JRRT himself wrote back an incensed rebuttal at the use of his name in a context that suggested anything negative about trees.

It would be hilarious how much the party programmes for this election are like:

SPD/Grüne: everyone should live and we'll tax the rich to pay for that

Union/FDP: the literal opposite of that, also we may or may not kill a few adorable baby kittens

AfD: let's kick out all immigrants and go back to the 40s, good times! And also we'll totally suck Putin's dick.

BSW: oh absolutely! Also politics should not be made by politicians.

...if the polls weren't. Like That.

oh and as usual he has been threatening violence publicly (on the web) for months. reportedly, police were made aware of him multiple times, including in the very city the terror attack ended up happening. despite this, he wasn't seen as an extremist or as potentially dangerous. because losing your shit about "islamization" and threatening to kill people in ratliation for "letting it happen" is just - idk quirky? what people do on the internet these days? nothing to be concerned about, apparently?

cool.

No other website could ever possibly bind mutuals together stronger than tumblr. It's like this: I'm scrolling past your art which is beautiful and warm I love it I hope you get on the trending page, oh you finally posted your fic i'm so proud of you, i'm sorry that you're having a hard time with work, school or you think you're hard to love, you're not because I love you and it's so easy. you're being silly tonight on the dash, it's good to see you after your hiatus. I also like that ship, they're keeping me up at night, can you share your joy with me? I saw your tags on my post, did you see me like it? hey it's been months and I've grown quite fond of you. see you tomorrow, same time or perhaps when the sun rises for me and sets for you. Isn't that wonderful?

I hate hate hate hate how dog friendly everything is in the city now. Barring medical necessity, there is no reason to bring your dog to a restaurant, there is no reason to bring your dog to the grocery store, there is no reason to bring your dog to the nail salon. Dogs do not need to go everywhere you go why am I being forced to be around dogs all the time

"Operative Eingriffe vor der Volljährigkeit lehnen wir grundsätzlich ab."

??????

Was machen dann Kinder, die lebensrettende OPs brauchen? Einfach sterben, oder was? Nur damit nicht irgendwo ein 17 1/2 jähriger aus Versehen ne Brustreduktion bekommt, als ob das ein weit verbreiteter Eingriff wäre? Als ob täglich trans Kinder in Deutschland operiert würden. Das ist ein NICHT VORHADENES Problem, aber dieser reaktionäre Scheißverein leidet dermaßen unter kulturkampfinduzierten Halluzinationen, dass sie denken, tausende Kinderleben zu gefährden, ist akzeptabel, wenn dafür auch nur EIN trans Kind nicht die Gesundheitsfürsorge erhält, die es braucht.

(Ich weiß, so ist das nicht gemeint. Aber das ist es, was dort steht. Nicht "plastische Chirurgie vor dem 18. Geburtstag", nicht "geschlechtsangleichende Operationen", nicht "medizinisch nicht notwendig". Sondern Operationen, Punkt. Transphobie führt wirklich zu Gehirnschwund.)

Much has been said on the modern healthy masculinity of tolkiens men but what I think what we’re really seeing here is medieval masculinity

Look. If you send me an ask asking for me to either donate to you or to ask other people to donate, I will delete the ask. Not because I’m heartless, but because I will one hundred percent assume that you’re just another scammer trying to profit off of the suffering of Palestinians.
