When people tell you who they are, believe them the first time.

PIGLOSI: “We are very discreet, reptilian, cold-blooded. These are the races we have to win.”

i'm so tired. EVERY time i see a video of a middle eastern recipe, i go into the comments and see people saying stuff like "careful, or israelis will steal it and say it's theirs" "make sure it's clear where it's from so no one can claim they invented it".

guess what? most israelis DON'T claim that middle eastern dishes are solely israeli with no other roots. what a way to show everyone you don't know history. jews came to israel from all over the area and brought their dishes with them. that's why we make similar dishes. but these people just want to continue to assert jews as people without a homeland and a culture. well, fuck you.

You have to learn to protect yourself because there are people in this world who see unprotected as “free to exploit”.

Obama, Clinton & Bush speaking about Haiti disaster relief, right before they stole all of it.

Bush: "The most effective way for Americans to help the people of Haiti, is to send money. That money will go to organizations on that ground who will be able to effectively spend it." "I know a lot of people wanna send blankets or water, just send your cash. One of the things the President and I will do, is make sure your money is spent wisely."

And then, they stole it.

Crooks. All of [Them]

How do you feel about hearing this in today's time, especially given what you know about Haiti's missing children, missing money, the Clinton Foundation & the Clinton's VERY close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell? 🤔

people neverrrrr give daisuke enough credit for actually literally being dark's whole ass braincell during a heist. the manga doesn't have enough actual heisting to showcase the fact, but in the drama cds and LNs both it's always always dark who gets into a pinch during his heist and then daisuke who figures something out to get them out of it. heck it's even daisuke who immediately, instinctively starts plotting and figuring out how complex mechanisms and sensors work even while he's trying to GIVE UP THIEVING?? dai can be emotionally dense at times since so much of his self-opinion is fogged and clogged up by his insecurities but if anybody thinks he's useless or god forbid actually totally dumb im whamming them over the head

ARCH ENEMY Shares Music Video For New Single 'Liars & Thieves'

Swedish/Canadian/American extreme metal titans ARCH ENEMY have unveiled their latest single, "Liars & Thieves", from their upcoming album "Blood Dynasty". The LP announcement and the start of the pre-order phase coincided with the beginning of ARCH ENEMY's European co-headline tour, "Rising From The North", with IN FLAMES on October 3 in Glasgow.

Throughout the tour, "Liars & Thieves" has already been performed live, as the band teased the release of the new single on stage. Now, with the release of the digital single, fans worldwide can finally experience the track.

"Liars & Thieves" delivers a powerful message of resilience and inner struggle, wrapped in fierce melodic death metal with intense lyrics about battling deception and enduring hardship.

"Our second single from 'Blood Dynasty' is here," says ARCH ENEMY guitarist Michael Amott. "'Liars & Thieves' is a fast, heavy-hitting track, with a melody that's been getting stuck in people's heads — don't say I didn't warn you! We've been playing it live recently, and it's been an absolute beast in the pit. Now, it's time to check out the studio cut!"

He continues: "The accompanying video has been captured out here on our ongoing European tour by director Jens De Vos, highlighting the passion and metal madness of these amazing shows where fans and band are one!"

"Liars & Thieves" was mixed by Jens Bogren and mastered by Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios.

ARCH ENEMY's twelfth studio album, "Blood Dynasty" will arrive on March 28, 2025 via Century Media Records.

Amott previously stated about the effort: "This new album pushes the boundaries of what we've done before — it's everything you've come to expect from this band, and then some! We can't wait for you to hear it and feel the energy we've poured into every track. Welcome to the 'Blood Dynasty'!"

"Blood Dynasty" track listing:

01. Dream Stealer 02. Illuminate the Path 03. March Of the Miscreants 04. A Million Suns 05. Don't Look Down 06. Presage 07. Blood Dynasty 08. Paper Tiger 09. Vivre Libre 10. The Pendulum 11. Liars & Thieves

Next to the limited deluxe editions that feature two exclusive bonus tracks, fans can direct their attention to the limited liquid blood vinyl that is exclusively available in the band stores and limited to 666 copies.

"Dream Stealer" marked ARCH ENEMY's first new music since the release of the "Deceivers" album, which came out in August 2022.

"Dream Stealer" was mixed by Jens Bogren and mastered by Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios. The video was directed and produced by Patric Ullaeus.

Two months ago, Amott told Pulp Magazine about "Dream Stealer" and ARCH ENEMY's plans for new music: "We've been staying busy for sure and are really focused on writing and recording new stuff in between the touring we're doing. I'm kind of always coming up with new musical and lyrical ideas though — I just keep going as it's what I enjoy doing anyway. Making music is a natural process, and it's pretty much a daily thing, so it can be hard to pinpoint exactly when everything was conceived. I do, however, actually remember that the initial seed for 'Dream Stealer' was written during a songwriting session I did with Daniel [Erlandsson, drums] in Los Angeles, California, two years ago, and then it's been rearranged and updated a lot till it reached its final state that you're now hearing."

Asked if it was a conscious decision to go back to the "classic ARCH ENEMY" direction and approach with "Dream Stealer", Amott said: "I've seen some seriously great feedback from the fans, and that's always very encouraging, of course. Personally, I don't know if I’d necessarily say 'Dream Stealer' is a throwback to the sound of the past, but I get what they mean — the song has the energy and speed that is very exciting and infectious. Maybe there is a hint of vintage ARCH ENEMY in there, and why not? I'm looking forward to playing it live on stage — I think it is going to be intense as hell."

ARCH ENEMY played its first concert with new guitarist Joey Concepcion on April 24 at Musinsa Garage in Seoul, South Korea. The show was part of ARCH ENEMY's 2024 Asian tour.

Last December, ARCH ENEMY announced that it had "amicably" parted ways with longtime guitarist Jeff Loomis.

Jeff, who was the main songwriter in his previous group, NEVERMORE, joined ARCH ENEMY in late 2014, but was not involved in the writing for the latter act's last two albums, 2017's "Will To Power" and the aforementioned "Deceivers".

[after akinari very suspiciously and conspicuously kept his bag away from katsuya and ran off in a hurry]

katsuya: tatsuya i'm worried about your son. he was acting suspicious and seemed very protective of whatever was in his bag... i'm worried he might be doing drugs.

tatsuya, knowing damn well akinari has a real live cat in there and is definitely not on drugs: ... that's probably it. i'll talk to him.

Robin Williams: What I've Seen Him in

[muzzlemouths]

I was reading the part of the DMD story where Y/N gets a new hat and had a fun thought: What if Y/N bought cool but cheap pants, wore them to the mall, and then they tore. Y/N would be all cussing out the salesgirl that convinced them to buy it, and Sun is just like, "No worries, Doll, I gotcha." Also, Moon would be laughing at Y/N. I just sorta daydreamed this 'cause I thought it was funny.

I can guarantee that Sun wouldn't react kindly to anyone treating the sale's staff (from his mall or otherwise) with disrespect. While the mall was still running he had a habit of neatly kicking out anyone who stirred up unnecessary fuss. Moon, too — though less politely.

He'd still get you a new pair of pants first and foremost, because he's not a monster, but you'd have to hear him scolding you for bad manners the whole time!

Ironically, a similar scenario to this (wherein y/n's clothes are damaged and they require new ones from the mall) does end up happening in this next chapter lol
