i saw someone point out the frequency with which liberals back social justice movements... how, for instance, when ferguson happened under obama it was not popular and there were many, many liberals who found the blm movement, in a sense, "in violation of [liberal] sensibilities" (when liberalism as a rule does not challenge the status quo, only maintains it and sees any call for revolution or real change as disruptive or 'bad for optics' and therefore not acceptable) but then when trump became president and he opposed blm a lot more liberals decided that the blm movement had merit because they viewed it from a team-sports perspective rather than a worldview based on morals and an understanding of the systems in place in the U.S. - that it was more comfortable for them to operate from a "trump bad" basis rather than "the american justice system and the police are inherently white supremacist, which are inherently, automatically, and always violent"

+ that, if trump was president while israel is carrying out its genocide, liberals would have NO problem denouncing israel and demanding for a ceasefire because they're comfortable operating from the 2-party system basis, NOT from a framework based on material conditions or factors or any acknowledgement or analysis of imperialism, colonialism, or capitalism. but because biden is a democrat, and democrats are supposed to be "the decent party" "the lesser evil" "more respectable" when, in functionality - in real practice, they don't want to disrupt the status quo. (internally, maintaining systems of white supremacy and capitalism; externally, furthering U.S. imperialism by maintaining hegemony and continuing the practice of exploitation and extraction of labor+capital+resources from the global south)

which is why we're here, a month into a genocide, and liberals are so cowardly and gutless that, in the face of our democrat president allowing and funding the genocide of palestinians in order for the U.S. to maintain its military base in the middle east, liberals IMMEDIATELY jump to "well, you HAVE to vote for him still, because trump will be worse!" and go "well im powerless there's nothing i can do", immediately folding like a wet paper bag in the face of the american empire rearing its ugly head in the most blatant, naked way in years, instead of thinking "this is unacceptable, i should pressure my elected officials and do everything i can - be it combating propaganda, contacting my congresspeople or senators, protesting, or engaging in direct action - to ensure this stops as quickly as possible".

there are liberals STILL IN MY NOTIFICATIONS who go "well you'll be electing a fascist if you vote for trump" not realizing that YOU CAN'T SIMPLY VOTE FASCISM AWAY. (which is not to say you should vote for republicans; that's not what i'm saying. none of us have said it.) we're pretty much already there. it's 2003 all over again, with the patriot act and all. the american war machine is pumping out racist, orientalist, pro-colonial, pro-genocide propaganda on behalf of the ethno-state america and its allies have backed since the so-called state's inception. people are being doxxed, fired, harassed, and attacked for visibly supporting palestine/opposing israel. islamophobic hate crimes are on the rise; a 6 year old boy was murdered not one month ago, an arab doctor in texas was stabbed to death. antisemitism is on the rise as well, thanks to the conflation of antisemitism with anti-zionism (which nazis have and will attempt to co-op in order to 'justify' + then act on their antisemitism, racism, and genocidal worldviews). our government is silencing people, brutalizing protestors, and arming and funding an ethno-state committing genocide - everything that would have been called fascist if it was under trump. but because it's a *democrat* liberals place "vote blue no matter who" and "optics" over the extremely basic moral stance that "genocide is wrong and people have the right to self-determination, autonomy, and life". arabs and muslims are already so dehumanized in the west that liberals (whether they consider themselves liberals or not) consider it an inconvenience to talk about the ongoing genocide that is happening with the blessing of OUR government. in this they expose their selfishness, the shallowness of their morals, their chauvinism, and their racism/orientalism/islamophobia/et cetera.

for example, if you see israeli troops waving a gay pride flag and the israeli state touting its support of gay people while said iof soldiers are murdering men, women, and children en masse every single day and you somehow????? think that because gay people are the ones doing the killing or a state claims to support gay people is doing the killing is ok then 1) you have fallen for pinkwashing propaganda and 2) that you find the murder of palestinians, or any people, permissible by a colonial force that uses causes liberals may genuinely care about in order to disguise, whitewash, or "lessen" the severity of the injustices it does unto usually black and brown people outside of the U.S., then you are just as bloodthirsty and depraved as anyone you would personally assign those descriptors of.

once again, it goes back to resorting to a team-sport understanding of the world rather than approaching it from a material one.

cw: smut, sextape (???), ooc young pres coryo, dom/sub dynamic (ish), soft dom coryo, light hair pulling.

young president!snow loves to film you during sex.

He knows it’s a bad idea, but he can’t help himself, he needs to have a visual reminder of how gorgeous you look when you’re all fucked out for him.

This is your third time riding him in one night and you still need more - if coryo didn’t love you so much, he’d lift you off of him and tell you to go to sleep. Your thighs were aching and you couldn’t move even if you tried, so you sat there on his lap, face buried in his neck with your arms wrapped lazily around his shoulders, whining and begging for more.

Who was he to deny his sweet, greedy girl? Especially when you were squirming on his lap, all flushed, your skin damp with sweat.

Eventually, his resolve faltered and his hands moved under your thighs, just by your ass. He was undeniably strong; stronger than you, anyway. His big, warm palms bounced you up and down onto him, making you mewl desperately into his skin, tugging on his hair lightly.

Suddenly, one of his hands left your thighs, and he stopped helping you ride him. You were dazed, to say the least, and all you could do is whimper in protest into his neck, your face shielded from the camera he had grabbed from the nightstand.

“C'mon, baby. don’t hide your pretty face. wanna see it.” he cooed into your ear, although his tone was almost a little patronising. You lifted your head slightly, opening your eyes. When you caught sight of the camera, you whined embarrassedly, ducking your face back into his neck.

A smug little smirk grew on his lips at the way you hid your face from the camera, trying to hide the needy, desperate state you had put yourself in for him. “Oh, baby. Don’t be like that. No need to be shy, beautiful girl, ‘s only for me.” he murmured into your hair, his other hand leaving your thigh to tangle in the hair at the nape of your neck firmly.

All it took was a little tug, so gentle it was almost unnoticeable, but it made you moan and lift your face from his neck obediently. He used his grip in your hair as leverage to turn your head to the camera, forcing you to look into it.

“Look at my pretty baby. so goddamn needy for me, wanting orgasm after orgasm.” slipped in a mutter from his lips, mostly talking to himself and the camera, but he also wanted to remind you how gorgeous he thought you looked (even if it was followed by a few teasing words).

It is admittedly kinda funny (in a 'mask off' kind of way) that suddenly no one is advocating for freezing the Ukraine conflict at the current control/line of contact anymore now that a couple hundred square miles of Russian territory is contested.

there is no greater love than the love the wolf feels for the lamb-it-doesn't-eat.

I'm having a Mario DIC cartoons relapse... oh my gosh, I forgot how much I love this disaster eldest child who never showers, eats nothing but fried foods and candy, and passes out during the day because he stays up all night working on incredible science advancements, just for his dad to sarcastically call him "smartypants" or say he's "smarter than he looks." Sir, your son is a Frankenstein University graduate- show some respect!!

His dad invited him to the Real World - where Koopas can use power-ups and humans can't - and all he wanted was french fries... Yes prince, give us everything!!

Look at this fun early art from the writer's bible... I love him...

Kooky watching his dad make A Mistake:

The face of two children who just voted against their dad in the ruler election:

He:

Every time I remember that Bully "has a gang, but no one will join it," it just cracks me up. And you can pry the "Kootie Pie and Bigmouth are each other's BFF" scenes from my cold dead hands...

Also, what do you mean Cheatsy gave himself writer's cramp by copying too many tests during reform school? That's so funny... Does he, like, wear a splint for that? And I'm sorry- What do you MEAN the twins are the most magically powerful koopalings? They're 6! Run that by me again??

Is DJT the only genuine "modern" style celebrity (i.e. post-"talkies") to become president? Ronnie was a B-lister.

I think people might be forgetting that Donald Trump was a D-list celebrity at best before he had a career renaissance of sorts with "The Apprentice", and even then, he was a two-bit reality show host who stole his catchphrase from Vince McMahon of all fucking people.

Trump had been famous for a long time, but before 2015 he was a joke who would do any and all publicity that he could get. (He was a joke after 2015, too, but a joke who somehow tricked 70 million+ Americans into buying into a dangerous personality cult that has destroyed the nation.) He used to go on anybody's radio show at any time and I know this because one of my best friends has been a longtime talk radio host in various cities and he could get Trump on whenever he wanted for as long as he wanted before Trump ran for President.

Ronald Reagan was certainly never an A-list movie star, but he was a far bigger (and more respected) star in the 1940s and 1950s than Trump was in the 80s, 90s and 2000s. Even after Reagan's movie career cooled off he spent nearly a decade as the host of a weekly prime-time national TV show which, at times, was one of the most popular weekly series in the country.

[ID: A digital illustration of Tashiro Gonzaburou and the ping pong club president from Sasaki and Miyano: First Years light novel. The President is a taller boy with fluffy, rust colored hair and round glasses. Tashiro’s hair is mostly bleached with short grown in roots, as if in his first year of high school. The President is standing close behind Tashiro, speaking and guiding his arms as Tashiro concentrates on his form, holding a ping pong paddle. It’s rendered in a loose painterly style with thick outlines and an iridescent color palette of mostly red and green. The background is a flat black. The artist’s signature “sunnfish 2024” is written on Tashiro’s arm. /End ID]h

Hashtag first drawing of ping pong club previous president. Weird ass guy Harusono shou give us his name. Please. Pleeeasssee. For me.
