i think what most people fail to understand is that theres no fucking way that israel intelligence community wouldnt know about the attack that happened. they have spies literally everywhere and theyre frighteningly good at their job, just look at some cases of them stealing data from other countries and you will see. so the most likely scenario in my head is that israeli government decided to let the attack happen, let the people die, bc of the greater good of forcing more oppression onto palestinians and deeming any of the activists as terrorists. now they can say "look its not our fault!!! we're doing this for the security of the country, not just israelis, and our laws and legislations are only to control the terrorism" which is a big fat lie.
people need to understand that when oppression gets too suffocating radical groups are born. this is why there are alt right muslim extremists in europe, bc theyre being actively oppressed. but what they do benefits the government (as in, they can now point at the extremists and claim all muslims/middle easterns are like this). so in the end, theres a high chance that the recent hamas attack will benefit the genocide of the palestinian—a truly ironic tragedy, the acts of which we (the middle easterns) already know from memory.
my heart goes out to all of my palestinian siblings. i hope the nightmarish genocidal machine of israel finally dies, and that you can experience peace in the end 🇵🇸
#Palestine#also i need the western leftists to check their sources before quoting any palestine advocate bc some of them are the iranian government#which i do not need to get into to explain why thats not correct and u shouldn't listen to them. hopefully#god im just. head in hands#when will the horrors end#people can never understand the experience of living in middle east#its truly hellish#and everything is out of our control#and bc we are brown our lives just. don't fucking matter#they way everyone treats us like trash like we deserve whats happening#like we deserve the war the west is forcing on us#im so so so tired. the pain never goes away#it just piles up.

That last anon had me doing double take to see if I misread it. You've never babified Curly at any point, in fact I think you honestly have the most realistic take on him based on canon. When I see an analysis from you I know what your saying is based on all the things you've dug through in the game itself and I appreciate that.
I think it’s very much looking a surfer level reasons and not attaching the character’s motivation and internal concerns. What they are known to do in situations and how they think about the simplest things. Like Jimmy not being sentimental about the rope but Curly is and their little bet. How Jimmy hates that the playlist survived but Curly mentions how it’s been around so long cause he thinks it’s perfect.
I try to make it clear Curly has culpability in the situation but I think it’s being misunderstood because people don’t understand that the game is about what Jimmy did, not to the Tulpar and Curly but what he initially did to Anya. It circles back that time and time again yet people are trying to act like Curly could’ve erased it if he beat the shit out of Jimmy after. That’s an act of Jimmy’s character Curly had no effect on and due to his character, it would inevitably lead to him doing something drastic to avoid responsibility.
Me acknowledging that shouldn’t mean I’m babifying Curly because I don’t see it as a plotted act against Anya or Curly not genuinely thinking he’s helping both of them and that he shouldn’t help them both???
#like everything clearly represents when we try to take hold of something either that’s out of our control or we lost control of#like i didn’t say he tried his best but he was doing his best with what he tried to do#it’s really just he said the wrong things to the wrong people and did the wrong things for the wrong people#and didn’t say the right things to the right people#I just try hard not to think in that black and white#mouthwashing#ask#anon

Sitting outside during a storm, watching, listening; enjoying the rain and the lightning and the thunder and thinking of Lord Zeus.
Thinking about his stories; what I know and how much I know I'm oblivious to. Wondering what I can learn from him. Reminding myself to research him later.
Thanking him for the storm. For every drop, every flash; every rumble.
Thunderstorms are something we have always adored both collectively with my system and together with our family/mother. But this one was truly magical because I got to experience it with Lord Zeus in mind.
I love religion 💜.

#ho hum. goodbye to 2024. good riddence i suppose. probably my worst year yet haha#but it wasnt all bad. i learned a lot. experienced a lot.#im doing probably better than i ever have been. probably from the treatment for over controlled coping. along with an awareness#that something has to give or i will literally die. also probably the medication. probably a lot the medication.#and its weird because everything mostly feels normal.#im only sometimes paralyzed by the terror of what it means to die.#even when im living in the shell of a ghost and breathing out haunted words. her phrase are woven within my speech and im wrapped in her#clothing. we're going to erase the data on her locked phone and it will become mine. and my life will be held in the same divice that hers#was held in. and she will dissolve away into the future. seeping away with every second without a body to hold her in thr present#anyway. heres to hoping 2025 is better. heres to hoping i can remain in my program. heres to hoping i can avert my compusive striving for a#perfect that doesnt exist.#and that all our tragedies are behind us. an impossible dream but so it goes.#unrelated

i think growing up is just life repeatedly sucker punching you and saying bitch you thought things were gonna better lmao no you're so naive and stupid for having hope in 20 years the world will be flaming bag of garbage and no matter how hard you work you'll get eliminated at some point
#and then you just have to get up and keep living anyway because what else is there to do?#but man my heart keeps feeling heavier with every blow#2024 has literally been the worst year ever god personally too#like everytime i think it can't possibly get worse than this it does#i remember literally 9th jan i had such a horrible breakdown in an auto because the first friend i ever made#after school was leaving my work and therefore my life#9 days into the year. seriously. and i was so happy on 8th because it was my birthday#i don't know im trying hard to think okay this doesn't even affect me it's fine im privileged enough that even my own countrys politics#barely affects me#but just. india is already so behind in everything. if developed nations are doing shit like this then well#it will never get better right like who do we even strive to be#i want to get more into indian politics but my god. it's so horrifying and depressing all the time#like i remember resolving to follow politics closely few years ago and the first news#i read was about some minister talking about how girls skirts lengths IN SCHOOL is the reason boys do sa and boys will be boys etc etc#i know i could just follow business news stuff like that god knows it'll help in my field but it just. doesn't resonate with me doesn't#make me feel anything at all. like i so desperately want to care about ooh stock markets and how to grow your money etc etc#but when i think about being rich enough to invest idle money all i can think is sitting in my own home peacefully#drinking a glass of cold coffee and just being able to breathe freely because me and my sister used to joke in childhood#when dad went thru a coffee v bad for health phase and he wouldn't let us drink it so we would drink it very sneakily#at night when he was asleep or went out for an hour and make absolutely no noise while mixing the sugar. we said that we know#we'll* know we have achieved true freedom and happiness in life when we can peacefully drink cold coffee in the hall and not secretly#in the dead of night in our room#i don't even know what im talking about and my period is late again and nothing is working and my lazer focus#that i had built in the past few weeks is gone because suddenly im like what is the point????#i just don't understand how the fuck humans can fight over stupid fucking things like who is kissing who and who is doing what with their#body instead of focusing on collective issues like our planet is dying so fucking fast and every summer is getting impossibler to survive#i hate that the united states control the UN fuck this world fr man i hate being born in such horrible helpless times#like call me a kid or dumb or whatever but i cannot understand how MILLIONS of people do not#have sympathy for ppl around them and who don't care about the planet at all like how????? how did you grow up????#not trying to boast but this is so natural to me!!! didn't you make save water save earth posters in school!!! didn't anyone

Eileen: "Sam. I can't...do this. I'm not...built for this."
Look, I don't care what ANYONE says. Sam’s son Dean (Spencer Borgeson) looks a STUPID LOT like Eileen Leahy (Shosannah Stern), and no writers or actors are ever going to change my mind that it wasn't cast that way on purpose.
Like, seriously, did they use magic copy-pasta to remake her scrunchy smile and uberdark doe-eyes?!
///
So, what happened? I'll tell ya what happened. Sam kept hunting for a little while, but he and Eileen had an unplanned pregnancy and she and Sam got out...for a little while. Until Eileen had a lone-wolf-hunter freakout and left. Sam's the one who stayed. And it was easier to let Dean think she was dead.
Dean drives the little red muscle car (THE red 1971 Plymouth Valiant) she left behind, "to feel closer to her."
So, you see... Sam becomes Ellen, Dean Jr. becomes Jo.
Except Bill (Eileen) is fucking alive, and Dean Jr. swears he'll never speak to Sam again when he finds out.
"Because you hid all this from me, dad! You didn't give me my own choice!"
There's all these people that know Dean's name and know so many details about his life (a Jody Mills, a Donna Hanscum, etc etc.), but he doesn't know them, and he feels lied to.
His grandparents were killed in a plane crash, or so he thought, and Dad said uncle Dean died in a construction accident (something about rebar).
They all look so normal in their family photos that Dean soon learns Sam has carefully doctored to "sell" the lie even more convincingly.
Dean Jr. doesn't know hunting or angels or about Castiel or Jack.
Sam doesn't want him to throw it all away, because what about college?! Sam would have killed to finish college! He's trying to protect him. It's not manipulation. It's love.
But Dean starts hunting with Eileen.
He starts using “Leahy” and his middle name (Mason?) instead.
And Sam's dying inside over it.
He is. He goes out to the garage, slips into the impala's front seat, and he sobs.
(Actually, I totally dig this. I'd watch it.)
#eileen is the alley cat of a father who slinks in and out of normal life#sam can't get her to quit hunting#when she reappears in dean's adolescance#it threatens to tear everything apart because sam does not want dean to hunt#dean & eileen hunter duo#they're going to save the world because there's an apocalypse brewing#i know this is THE truth and so do you#dean jr is a bit like alt john missing the absent parent and so so rebellious and foolish like sam#if dean got in a deal sam would BEG rowena to break it BEG HER#but bc hell got out of control she had to save face and#dean goes to hell#rowena goes to cad to jack but they’re MIA#so then rowena goes to our dean#trying to extricate younger dean while retaining hell power

I have a hypothesis that having something to watch and look forward to every week (or at least in a regular time intervals) is more significant and beneficial to people's mental health more than one could think
It's both important because of the enrichment factor, but also from the perspective of having something positive to look forward to every week at a set time, guaranteed to appear no matter of what happened in your life, the state of your mood and where are you currently in life
As well as being delivered in manageable doses, not causing overwhelm, not taking up enough time to be disorderly to your schedule
I feel it's especially important to neurodivergent people, but also being a net positive in neurotypicals as well
It's generally a comforting presence that makes us feel a little bit more in control in the face of everything else that might be going on at the while
I feel like entertainment is generally more significant to our lives than it's often regarded as
We need to unwind in a controlled way on a regular basis
#txt#fandom#binging#binge watching#streaming#binge culture#binge watching is nothing but stressful and overwhelming#it's like having to eat a whole delicious cake by yourself at once#and as fast as possible#yeah it's good but you're not going to appreciate the flavor and you might choke or feel nauseous at the end#nothing starting with 'binge' is ever going to be a healthy option#come to think everything political aside i feel people are more stressed now because even entertainment is out of our control#it's also community-building and many other factors that make the communities look barren without it now#entertainment and its role of community building and schedule setting#as well as emotional regulation

hey yall, i dont generally do this on here
fuckn, vote blue.
are u queer at all? vote blue or your existance will be illegal
do u have a womb or vagina? vote blue so we keep what agency over it we still have
are you involved with the american school system? vote blue because conservatives are trying to dismantle the department of education.
i can not stress enough how important it is for conservatives to lose this election. any sort of freedom we have as americans will be stripped and we will be expected to thank them for it.
#vote blue#this isnt even about trump really#this is about republicans wanting control#they want total control#and are actively trying to turn our government into a dictatorship#i didnt even add everything theyre trying to do with this prpject 2025#i was reading the wiki about it when i made the post#so if i left out a group of people whos loves will be irrevocably changed by a red president#i apologize

girl hold me, leftists are being wrong about signalis because of its east german aesthetics online again (and being INCREDIBLY racist about germans whilst at it) 😭
#and im fucking GREEK do you know how racist you gotta be to get a greek to tell you to cut it out about being mean to GERMANS?!#(and hell it's not even ''being mean'' they outright label any german as nazi-adjacent cus of their history like FUCK ME what the fuck)#anygay signalis is not about communism or anti-communism it's about the tragedy of conformity and the beauty of love even if it's fleeting#we can glean a lot about its world and its powers vying for control and how fucked everything is - but it ultimately doesnt matter#what matters is the humanity we find amidst ourselves and with our loved ones. that's it that's the message#the same EXACT message disco elysium has which i saw it compared to as the EVIL disco lmfao god fucking damn

i wish i had the words to explain what yoongi and his d-day did for my mental health this year. i really wish i had the power to somehow let him know that i related to every word he said in that album and everything he spoke about in his documentary, and that his wisdom and reassurances really pushed me forward like nothing else all these months. ugh i wish.
#bc i was listening to snooze and just every single word hits so hard i can't listen to it without crying#he keeps promising us that he's here to catch us n that we should hold onto our dreams n that there's SOMEONE who lives off our smiles#and then the mantra styled 'everything will be okay' over n over again like a pat on ur head or a soft hug#d-day is truly for all the sad girlies who are trying to get up again.. who are wiping their tears and trying to heal#even the freaking interlude feels like pulling yourself out of your pains and steering towards a better future.. so utopian#and remember what he said at the end of road to d-day? how we can't control the past and future but the present#i cried SO MUCH ISGDHSEHFUFH and ill cry again bc that hit home.. really did#yeah idk i just hope he knows what that album means to us and i hope he knows how much comfort he's able to give#hands down my favourite album this year and truly truly did so much for me seriously#okay that's it

Every day, I meditate on my anger and bitterness. I reflect on my seemingly bottomless need to ruminate on all the people who have abused and traumatized me starting from a young age. The unfairness of it all. The senselessness. I grieve for myself as a little girl who desperately wanted to be love and be loved, and whose desperation was like blood in water to sharks.
I send quiet internal prayers out to the universe and ask it to lessen my anger, because I truly don't think I need it anymore. I'm safe from harmful people for arguably the first time in my entire life. I have friends and family whom I love. I have cultivated a sense of self-love so all-encompassing that no other person will likely ever be able to rival it. I am safe. I'm okay. I'm happy. I don't need my anger anymore.
I reflect on how to this day my mother, who I had to cut off for my own sanity, is a bitter, miserable woman now in her 60s. How eerily my personality and potential echo hers. Her and I both were deeply wounded over and over, starting at young ages by our mothers. We both jump to rage when we are hurt, we both ruminate endlessly about those who hurt us, replaying the painful mental movies over and over again, hurting ourselves long after the harmful people have gone.
I see her in me, and I see what I have the potential to become if I don't release my resentment. It's hard to let go of something that has kept you safe in the past. My anger has time and time again scared off abusers, once they realize it makes me too unstable, unpredictable, and therefore difficult to control.
But I don't need it right now. It's best to internally send well wishes to all who have hurt me, because it takes someone equally hurt and dysfunctional to mistreat others. The only way I don't end up as one of them, to not end up a carbon copy of my mother, is to let the resentment go.
I've undertaken several self/life improvement projects that will hopefully bear fruit in early 2025. Not jinxing anything by talking about it yet, but I'm excited. I'm ready to look towards the future and leave my past where it belongs, and I do this with love and acceptance.
#personal#anger#the belief that my anger is still protecting me has been limiting me a lot#i may need to call on it again someday but it's not likely#because i have the experience and knowledge to recognize emotionally & physically unsafe people from a mile away now#but in the event that i let another one get near me again i can yield it like a weapon and then put it away once I'm safe again#my mom keeps her anger unsheathed at all times and it's made her sick and unstable and unhappy#what I've been through in the last year has given me so much compassion for her bc I finally understood that she acted the way she did#bc she has been in immeasurable unhealed emotional pain her entire life#it doesn't excuse it. it's still her responsibility as an adult to go to therapy and stop unloading on everything and everyone#but i realize now that she wasn't just torturing and abusing me for fun. she did love me deeply. but she was not in control of herself#i feel pity for her because i now understand first-hand how deep main mixed with a sensitive nervous system#transforms you into someone you're not#i don't know if she'll ever seek the help she needs but i finally feel i can forgive her from a distance#one thing is for sure we do not have free will lmao#it takes an enormous amount of awareness to cross the threshold of unconsciousness we live most of our lives in#i flit in and out of this unconsciousness all the time and it takes work#tonight i feel i have clarity but tomorrow my neurotransmitters might feel like firing off in anger again#all i can do is catch myself in it and breathe and remind myself of who i don't want to be#and most importantly who i want to become

We almost had our car hit but our split-second decision to floor it saved me, and the driver who SWERVED INTO OUR LANE WITHOUT CHECKING THEIR BLIND SPOT, and the poor sucker on the other side of me who almost got whacked as a result. Just barely scraped past and got away ough that was almost So Bad
And then on the way back to the car after dropping off the delivery guess who walked straight into the customer's knee-deep garden pond :D
Oh how we laughed
Eventually
#no context honor system#scary scary scary scary scary#oh fucking well lmao no harm no foul#the good timeline#didn’t need all that goddamn paperwork#almost called our mom from the sheer shock but ehhhh it's late it would just worry her#everything worked out juuust fine#thank fucking god#special thanks to my reaction time and the universe#say your prayers ig lmao#i had very little control so the control i HAD saved my ass#yaaaaaaay#everything is fine

"Our thing connects to an app!!!"
Ah... I hate it
#name me a thing and I'll tell you why I don't want it connecting to an app#this time it was me looking into something you could plug stuff into and have it tell you how much energy it used#and so many are like 'it'll send it into an app'#well that's stupid; and I'd like it to just tell me the info on it's own little screen#...saw some brewing video where... mhh... that's right; it was something to measure the... something volume related#you use it to calculate the alcohol content; I'm no brewer; just might like to someday so I sometimes watch stuff#anyway; guess what? app; no screen; only app#...I will fucking just learn to do it the old school way thank you; I'd love for you to make it so I don't have to do math#but not enough to deal with your fucking app that you'll stop supporting in 2 years#juicero ass mentality#'we've made two rocks that squeeze juice out of a drm'd juicebox; please use our app'#fuck your app; fuck it forever#the number of use cases where I want to use an app approach zero#honestly I really only play games on my phone or use it rarely for tumblr/discord... mostly for photos#and even there the games would probably be better on my computer (why are phone emulator's such ass?)#in short; if you tell me the thing you sold me will use an app to work... die#everything ought to be able to be done via the thing itself#...I can maybe; and it's a big maybe; but I can maybe forgive if like... I set up a battery and some kind of house grid control... thing#and I can either interface directly with it via my computer and a usb port; a screen; or if I feel like it an app... maybe... maybe ok#(though... that's a security risk for sure)#but point is apps can fuck off and die forever#they're stupid as hell
