were at a weird point where us imperialists are dismantling their own institutions for building soft power and maintaining us hegemony abroad (like USAID) because the people in charge are so drunk on racist hatred of anyone who isnt american and owning the libs they dont realize (or dont care) that these are the things that keep the US in a position of imperial power lmao

I think one thing everyone should remember in regard to the ol' halftime show and honestly in regards to every performance is that performance is just that. It does not equate to change, and at the end of the day, I really is a few very wealthy performers performing an idealized patriotism trying to illicit an emotional yet patriotic response from people who typically do not hold major pride in this county because of the atrocities it commits to make things like the super bowel happen: Marginalized communities and homeless people are pushed out economically and physically to build megastadiums that stand totally empty for 2/3 of the year or more and only serve generate wealth for billionare sports team owners during games or the odd rented performace of like pop stars. Enjoy your symbols and messages, sure, just don't forget the substance behind the show. Sports are a distraction. Celebrities are a distraction. They want you to forget about the communities that were demolished to build that shrine to American frivolity and the people unhoused and unfed people who struggle in its shadow. They want you to forget about the underpaid staff giving you those $15 cups of beer and $20 nachos while they earn maybe $10 an hour. They want you to forget all the waste and carbon generated to get all those people in all those cars to that stadium. They want you to forget all the flu and covid and more spreading through those massive, maskless crowds before they take those illnesses back home across the country to their kids or their grandma's nursing home and put them in the hospital or worse. Now that times the whole NFL and NBA and etc. and etc.

Still feeling even a glimmer of patriotism from your sportsball? I sure hope not.

the woman in the river shows me an axe of silver and asks if it is the one I lost. I respond that it is. she produces an axe of gold and asks the same question again. I shamefully look away, not sure whether I'm comfortable admitting that I was dual wielding

when i say i’m from ukraine, people assume i live somewhere else now. when i say i live in ukraine, they assume i’m somehow immune to war, and there’s a logical division between a ukrainian they chat with on discord and a ukrainian on the news. bitches my yaoi is written from the bomb shelter

Update! Luigi's Attorney Dickey confirms that his "outburst" where he tells the cameras that this is unjust, was because he was never read his miranda rights and was under the impression at that time that he was being denied the right to a fair trial, an attorney, or any legal representation.

He is angry and terrified in that footage because they have failed to follow basic procedure to inform him that he has any rights at all. This is a major red flag of police corruption. This is UNACCEPTABLE and further means any interrogation they did of him is unlawful, and inadmissible in court.

First ape to go to the watering hole with a container and put some of the water in it so that they could drink more later without returning to the watering hole must have been lauded as a fucking genius.
