white americans when you tell them that the idea of climate change as an impending disaster is a reductive first world perspective because it’s a tangible reality for many in the global south already:

#climate change #im TIRED #and i’m saying this as someone who also lives in the US.#im glad that none of you have to worry about your family and friends in other countries dying because of the heat #but this idea that “oh we have to stop it before we reach the extreme” is SO STUPID #because it’s already reached the extreme in some places!!#people are dying in south asia. people are dying in southeast asia. people are dying in africa. people are dying in central america.#people are dying in south america. people are dying in island nations.#what will it take you to care about these people #or will you not care until it’s people who look like you who are dying.

Please stop seeing politics as an identity and start seeing it as a collective means for change

#i am so tired of ppl trying to use 'theres no ethical consumption under capitalism' in regards to BDS #it's not about ethics it's about participating in a political strategy palestinians have spent YEARS promoting as a means for change #some things are in fact not about you #social justice #I/P #social issues #palestine #gaza #free palestine #free gaza #id in alt #overflowing trashcan

I love you Safety Wizard.

(Inspired by @keroascrazy)

#safety wizard #wizard #Tumblr wants me to use the wizardposting tag so badly and I'm tempted. It's a good tag.#Shout out to stackedbirds for sending me the safety wizard post. Beloved mutual and beloved supplier of good wizard posts.#I will make it an open secret that I love me some good goofy wizards.#Safety Wizard has a special pizzazz that just gets the gears turning.#I like to imagine Safety Wizard began their studies as a traffic wizard. Then took some courses in roadside hazard magic.#This sparked an interest in safety magic and resulted in an eventual change of major - but the outfit stayed true to their roots.#All that said and done; The original costume is really good and I hope OP keeps up the good wizarding work.#Remember that distracted driving is extremely dangerous. Do not drive tired or in altered states of awareness.#It is always morally correct to call a friend of ride service if you have even the smallest doubt you will be a safe driver.#And *please* wear proper PPE on your job site. Do not put yourself or other's at risk!

DPxDC Idea

Danny working at Wayne Enterprises as some sort of engineer, uses the in-house app for all his blueprints and stuff

He starts getting notes from a coworker in-app, and assumes its this annoying older guy in his department who constantly undermines him because of his age, despite his education and past achievements (i feel like in this AU the Fentons react well to the reveal and they work together on a number of non-lethal ecto inventions that have Danny's name attached to them)

Except one day his coworker mentions never using the app, and Danny suddenly realizes there's only one other TD he could've been arguing with in the notes of the app

#dp x dc prompt #dpxdc #danny phantom #danny fenton #batman #tim drake #red robin #i have no ideas what happens beyond danny realizing it's been tim the whole time #and having a 'fuck ive been arguing with the big boss' moment #cause of course when he thinks its some asshole from his own department hes snarky as hell #but the ceo??#should he stop with the sarcastic explanations behind his designs?#or will tim think its weird if his tone changes #in my head this does end up being dead tired somehow #just because i love the idea of these two bonding over snarkiness and engineering #and i feel like tim would simultaneously love and hate danny's notes #but also is that actually in character? cause the only batman thing i've read is rhe webtoon #and i know some vague things about canon #but thats it

“I got upset about 20 years ago because I thought it would block me,’ she says. ‘However, it’s been very easy to avoid reading any, so live and let live. If I were a young writer, I’d want to own my own ideas. But maybe fan fiction is a transitional phase: whatever gets you there, gets you there.“

#I'm fucking tired #I know her behaviour towards fans in this regard was awful and she certainly deserved the vitriol at the time #and she was not the type to apologize for anything ever #but I feel like 90% of tumblr aren't aware that she changed her mind #anne rice #iwtv #iwtv amc #amc iwtv #interview with the vampire #vampire chronicles #the vampire chronicles

I was talking to a coworker recently and offhandedly said I wasn’t exactly competent at a lot of things. He reared back in obvious visceral disagreement that made me stop midsentence.

“What do you mean you’re not competent?”

“I guess I mean compared to the people I’m surrounded by? I’m not very handy, I guess.”

He looked baffled.

I tried to illuminate with a story. So at the sex shop we needed to vacuum every night, right? But one time after my days off I could tell the carpets hadn’t been vacuumed since I last saw them. I asked the other girls why not. It turned out that the screw that held the handle on the vacuum had been stripped and it wouldn’t stay in. Why was that down to a single screw? Bad design.

So any attempt to vacuum meant the handle just popped off when the screw jumped ship. I looked over the vacuum. I found a junk drawer. I found the biggest screw I could that still fit in the hole wrapped it in tape to bulk it out. Then I shoved/screwed it in place. Then I duct taped the opening so that fucker couldn’t pop out. Voila, a working handle.

The other girls were utterly delighted that I’d fixed the vacuum but I was painfully aware that my solution was neither elegant nor long term.

My coworker listened. Finally he said, “I think being competent just means you have the ability to learn a skill you lack, and you can do that. Your solution worked, and you were the one that tried to fix the problem.”

I digested that and agreed, but admitted any new skill learned would prompt me to be a huge baby about it.

#ramblies #funny #writing #story #I think too there’s so many times I’ve failed basic stuff like- I can’t put air in my tires or change a flat #I can’t use tools to a high degree #and all my friends are total badasses who make stuff and know what they’re doing with their hands #so all my shoestring solutions feel like playtime #but technically I can usually come up with some kind of janky solution

You understand change. You know why it's necessary to destroy something to become what you want to be... To become what you need to be. To become what the people need you to be. Change is destruction. And destruction is irreversible, even if you can pick up the pieces to build something better. . . . . . . You don't know how these new broken pieces will make anybody better. But you'll make sure it won't be for nothing.

#my art #in stars and time #ISAT Role!Swap AU #Too tired to make comics but just enough energy to make random sketches fueled by vibes and the desire to draw lil Change God statues!#I need to draw the Change God more often. They're so shaped and fun :3
