#and they'll save me again

[indestinatus]

had to take a moment today to remember how I started creating content for tony & ziva during the pandemic and then I was rewatching the show with such naive and dreamy intentions (trying to remember who they were) without fully grasping the complexities of them

and now that I'm older™ and wiser™ I see them as my two older best friends (cheesy I know) but also as these huge complex characters that deserve to have a better explanation of their story in much more detail than my dreamy scenarios about them

only to say that I can't believe we're getting a spin-off and I get to experience them again. I grew up with them and will continue to analyze them always

what a journey

I wish we could have met in some other way.

I drew another Chara- living with the Dreemurrs edition

"The King and Queen treated the human child as their own. The underground was filled with hope."

I don't like this as much as the last one but oh well... I ended up rambling a huge amount in the tag, so if you want details and headcanons about the actual drawing again, you'll have to look pretty far down this time, sorry (Also, I ran out of tags after a while. Tumblr is tired of me, lol. I might reblog this more tags later if I remember what I was going to say.)

Hey Spinner fans....

What if, I gave Spinner the Danny phantom (phandom) treatment? (I mean, a full on vivisection, testing, torture, (tail) amputation fic.) Would anyone want that ooooor??

Bisan's video yesterday broke my heart entirely. Over the last two months this girl has become friend and family and the one of Gaza's brightest stars for people all over the world who follow her social media. She's the kind of person most of us only see as protagonists in books and shows; her force of will, determination, her insistence in finding the smallest hope (usually children and cats) and happiness among the ruins and terror have made millions fall in love with her. People like her and Hind Khaudary and Motaz makes you feel like things can still be okay as long as they're alive and fighting.

Yesterday, the bombs and massacres resumed. And reminded us once more than this is not a hero or a protagonist or beacon but a cold, scared, heart-broken girl who wants her life back desperately, even though everything she knows and loves is destroyed. I have never seen her so broken.

Please don't stop talking about Palestine. Don't give up on them, on her, on Motaz and Hind and Saleh. They're real people like you and me, going through an unimaginable horror, and we are the only hope and witness they have. We are all just drops in a vast ocean doing our best to change the current, but every drop is vital, and our only job is not to evaporate. If our friends in Gaza must survive, we can give them a reason to do so.

Kay, thanks for this link, reading the essay was almost quasi-religious to this lifelong atheist. It's an absurdly optimistic piece and all the more rebellious for it, I think.

I could quote so much more from it, but perhaps this is the most relevant bit right now...

For radicals, fetishizing the guillotine is just like fetishizing the state: it means celebrating an instrument of murder that will always be used chiefly against us.

Those who have been stripped of a positive relationship to their own agency often look around for a surrogate to identify with—a leader whose violence can stand in for the revenge they desire as a consequence of their own powerlessness. In the Trump era, we are all well aware of what this looks like among disenfranchised proponents of far-right politics. But there are also people who feel powerless and angry on the left, people who desire revenge, people who want to see the state that has crushed them turned against their enemies.

Reminding “tankies” of the atrocities and betrayals state socialists perpetrated from 1917 on is like calling Trump racist and sexist. Publicizing the fact that Trump is a serial sexual assaulter only made him more popular with his misogynistic base; likewise, the blood-drenched history of authoritarian party socialism can only make it more appealing to those who are chiefly motivated by the desire to identify with something powerful.

-Anarchists in the Trump Era

Now that the Soviet Union has been defunct for almost 30 years—and owing to the difficulty of receiving firsthand perspectives from the exploited Chinese working class—many people in North America experience authoritarian socialism as an entirely abstract concept, as distant from their lived experience as mass executions by guillotine. Desiring not only revenge but also a deus ex machina to rescue them from both the nightmare of capitalism and the responsibility to create an alternative to it themselves, they imagine the authoritarian state as a champion that could fight on their behalf. Recall what George Orwell said of the comfortable British Stalinist writers of the 1930s in his essay “Inside the Whale”:

“To people of that kind such things as purges, secret police, summary executions, imprisonment without trial etc., etc., are too remote to be terrifying. They can swallow totalitarianism because they have no experience of anything except liberalism.”

Genuinely what I do for fun now is open up my credit card apps and then a browser with a credit card repayment calculator, then input numbers until I run out of wiggle room in my budget

so what i'm putting together from osmosis and the wonderful livebloggers and the incredible arkanis english updates account is something like this

Prefeito Jota: Hello, I'd like to hire you to investigate what happened in my city/island(?)!

Bagi, who was previously "invited" to a mysterious island/city by its elected official, subsequently trapped on the mysterious island/city, investigated the deep mysterious history of the island/city, came to no conclusions, found her brother after years of searching, was separated once again from her brother, gained and lost an adopted daughter (possibly to being kidnapped by the island government, which was evil), gained and lost a demon fiancée (possibly to being dragged back to hell, so there's no way to find her), gained and lost a close demon friend to dubious circumstance (did he die for his children? is he with skeppy in the gas station?), and has had an unknown amount of time to process and/or suppress all of this: Sure! :D

The thing about Crowley is that he already tried fighting* the system and the end result was his fellow rebels making a new system suspiciously similar to the old system with torture pits and demotivational posters in place of the aggressive hypocrisy and kardashiancore interior decorating. And then after that he decided to fight the apocalypse and the apocalypse thwarted itself with minimal involvement required from him. His biggest contribution was fucking up a simple handoff completely accidentally. His apparent belief that it'll all sort itself out without him or it won't and either way his involvement will be largely irrelevant to everyone but himself is pretty well founded. I'm sure by the end of season three he'll have learned a valuable lesson about how admitting that you want to make positive contributions to the world is something you can do on your own terms and not simply an exercise in opening yourself up to god's preordained judgement and hell's torture pits and but he's old and tired and has probably never been kissed let him have a very specific vision for his retirement.

*ok his version of fighting was probably just asking a lot of very annoying questions and then semi-accidentally joining a rebellion.
