😃 wtf
Hey! So this is actually very insane!
oh my… this was a conversation about founding fathers on Pinterest and uhh
#so the people DO need to know!#american history#black history#founding fathers#thomas jefferson#every day i hope thomas jefferson is rolling in his grave bc that's the least he deserves and one more old white male historian trying to#justify his abuse and rape is going to actually send me over the edge i think i talk about this on a weekly if not daily basis im so fr#that also goes for:#george washington#henry laurens#john laurens#john laurens because he was an abolitionist who DID benefit from slavery and you cannot ignore that even if he might have done more in#a longer life to advocate for the end of slavery AND free his own slaves. but he died so who's to say#james madison#the schuylers#and thereby#alexander hamilton#is it on a sliding scale how guilty they were as individuals? sure maybe#there is nuance#but you have to think critically and examine history in all its parts even when part of an anachronistic fandom bc revering SLAVE OWNERS#is insanely harmful. cause WTAF#either you are a literal child or you are grossly uneducated and implicit in racism yourself. get educated. jfc#i didnt mean for this to all be in the tags i guess i could've actually written about it but it got out of hand#choosing to ignore that the founding fathers owned slaves IS racist#bashing my head against the wall#colonial america#i mean this isnt even virtue signaling or like an attempt to criticize others for their lack of knowledge. it is a lack of empathy.#a lack of humanity. bc we are talking about millions of lives spanning hundreds of years#ruined. murdered. raped. systemically colonized and their family histories taken from them. it is an ONGOING ISSUE! to ignore that?#i am sickened

I need white people in this fandom to understand that stealing Black people’s words and using them wrong is only going to make you sound stupid and not racially enlightened. Eddie becoming more comfortable with cooking and caretaking (as he should as a single dad) is not codeswitching. Code switching is about dialect and manners of speaking. It’s about socialization and how we signal linguistically that we are part of a community. Most importantly though, it’s about race and not gendered behavior or sexuality and if you can’t grasp that ground level concept, you have no business writing meta about how Linda (a Black woman) teaching Eddie (a Latino man) how to cook better is an example of codeswitching.
#there IS a conversation to be had about how drag culture and thereby the wider lgbt scene ALSO exhibits codeswitching to an extent#but this ain’t it Chief#disk horse

Merry and Pippin may love food, but I firmly believe that it’s Gimli and Gandalf who would go OFF on that vending machine

Killua voice: “Assassin’s my old job. I quit that business.”
Increasingly nervous random person: “O-oh, okay, so what’s your uh… new job?”
Killua: “Gon’s best friend.”
Random person: “…huh?”
Gon: :D
Random person: “I don’t think that really… counts as a job…?”
Killua: “Yeah it does. I work full-time to keep this idiot out of too much trouble.”
Gon: >:(
#storyrambles#hxh#killua zoldyck#gon freecss#something about Killua calling assassin his ‘old job’ thereby implying ‘friend’ is his new job is so incredibly funny to me#he quit being an assassin after going on strike didn’t work#his new job pays an actual liveable wage (Gon’s love and affection)

the second line of text you see in ghost trick, on the first screen of the game, sets up a motif / bit of symbolism that doesn't fully come into its own until the final chapters, where it is used as the key to understanding the main antagonist. that's good ass writing if i've ever seen it.
#ghost trick#ghost trick: phantom detective#get it? ''swimming in darkness". like the darkness is a body of water. like. like the sea#ghost trick spoilers#<- mostly because of the following tag:#it's also funny knowing *who* says this line and thereby sets up the metaphor. something about cats and water. :)#breaking news: ghost trick has stellar foreshadowing. water is wet.#analysis

No idea whats happening this season, but I get the sense that this would be the funniest time for Matt to come out as bisexual
#Python starts dating Ty thereby inflicting Maximum Psychological Damage to the Mikes#Not even genuinely dating - they should do it as a bit#Like Python starts talking about how he thinks he might be bi and ends up mentioning Ty#and Mikey assumes he means he likes Ty#And Python gets pissed and decides 'Ya know what? Yeah it's Ty. In fact we're already dating'#Python to Ty 'So listen I may have gotten mad at Mikey and told him we're dating as a prank so like can you go along with it for a few days#Ty already fully committed the second he heard Mikey and Prank 'When is too soon to start planning a wedding?'#anyway. yeah.#woe.begone#w.bg#ty betteridge#w.bg spoilers#sort of

-might get kicked out for unrelated reasons (HOA) But small look at the landlord situation. Landlord emailed us some legal documents earlier- which included an admission that he's been getting the rent checks (which he was previously claiming we weren't paying and citing as his grounds for eviction) - as well as documentation of two other instances of attempted extortion.... I've lost the plot completely at this point
#like ❓ what are you doing.... that was your entire argument........#-and again not sure what i can share but.#trying to demand payment on late fees....#threatening to email dad's employer if he didn't pay said late fees ....#then admitting that we've been paying the rent- not only on time but a few days early every month-#thereby... making the late fees invalid AND attempted extortion... wyd#edit- i mean actually the hoa issues ARE landlord related ig

The thing that really gets me about xiyao. that will never NOT get me about xiyao. Is that they met in circumstances where for just a moment their respective stations in society didn't matter. Not to each other. Their relationship started outside of social conventions. And they spend the next 17 years trying to preserve that time, that relationship outside of society. And society crept in anyway.
#mdzs#lan xichen#meng yao#jin guangyao#xiyao#rs: i wish it could've been you#it's the TRAGEDY of it all#oh god maybe this is why cql xiyao doesn't do it as much for me despite the fact the fact they are just. so gay.#because SO MUCH about xiyao and how they work can be traced back to how they met#like down to xichen's stubborn willingnes to always believe the best in jgy and his 'i believe you had your reasons' mentality#because that? 'sometimes the wrong thing to do is actually the right thing because the situation is desperate'#that's a lesson he had to learn ON THE RUN FROM THE WEN. he had to leave his own people to die. that's a lesson he learned WITH MENG YAO#and that line of thinking thereby becomes irrevocably tied to meng yao#and changing their first meeting and pushing back that little wartime romance changes so much#it's still tasty but it's not THIS

[ID: A digital greyscale sketch of Alice Dyer and Sam Khalid from The Magnus Protocol. Alice is tall and thin with shoulder-length curly hair, and Sam is shorter and fat with neat, short hair and glasses. They are posing together for a photo, Alice grinning and Sam giving a tight-lipped smile, each with an arm around the other. Text at the bottom reads “Alice & Sam” in all-caps. End ID.]
omg guys she speaks highly of him,,,
#i sure hope these cuties haven’t already faced the horrors and maybe a big fire by the time the story starts thereby dooming them#to The Narratives And Themes!!!!!!!!#tmagp#the magnus protocol#samama khalid#alice dyer#my#saint draws#i didnt wanna put Too Much into this bc it is very likely that my hcs will change but.#what if they got to enjoy uni. what a thought.

Reading agot chapters of the stark sisters and coming to the conclusion that they hate each other in isolation from their parents’ understanding of them and society’s rigid expectations on them is idiotic as fuck. They are both classic products of their environments, both familial and social, and their feelings of each are heavily informed by these two things. Please take your Sansa and Arya hate each other because they’re antagonists, and are going to come head to head thematically in the later books, and dump it in the trash where it belongs.
#ned not understanding sansa thereby unconsciously favouring arya over her#cat not understanding arya and putting her expectations on her#psa: neither of the parents hate either girl#it just happens in a stratified and regressive society like that#sorry#sansa stark#arya stark#a game of thrones#agot#asoiaf#a song of ice and fire#stark sisters#san & ar#can you tell I am rereading the books?

tbh I should have realized that I wasn't an anarchist anymore in 2019 when I stopped answering "how will X work under socialism" by basically going "idk lol we'll find out when we get there" and started giving examples of how things work in Cuba and Vietnam today.
#i still have more quotes from Soviet Democracy i want to post when i get the time#i spent so long giving the US anticommunist narrative the benefit of the doubt#and thereby wasted so much time avoiding overly “tankie” sources#i really didn't want to think that they could have just blatantly lied and fabricated such horrific slander towards the communists#but i should have realized that of course they could#if they had no qualms about murdering children in korea and vietnam#why would they have any qualms about projecting their own brutality onto their enemies?
