Genuinely thought this was calling for Biden to step down and then that last line fucking nuked me from orbit.

things the US needs to address:
the collective psychosis that leads people to make posts like these
#in case it's unclear what i mean:#1.) blaming gen z men or any of the listed grifters is useless idpol#2.) half of your country did not 'vote against [your] collective best interests' lmao#if you truly believe that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the position your country occupies in the global economy#and the benefits conferred onto its citizens for supporting the imperial world order#3.) i feel like OP kept this point purposefully vague (ofc social media has on effect on the common good. what effect specifically?)#but i'll still respond by saying#social media has helped immensely in exposing how often traditional news outlets lie retract revise and outright fabricate information#the more aligned with bourgeois interests they are the worse it is#the past year of western media's reporting on the genocide in palestine has done nothing if not highlight the incongruence#between what people see n share on the ground and what narratives corporate interests deem fit to disseminate through traditional channels#the importance of following independent (which does not equal 'unbiased') journalists has never been greater#4.) 'lazy minds and lack of empathy' empathy is not some bulwark against fascism. it can actually serve to further it quite easily#idk what OP is trying to get at here. lazy point = lazy response#5.) i can't say anything here that isn't summed up better by that tweet that's like#'american *sees something american happening americanly in america*: what are we a bunch of ASIANS?!?!???'#cause there's just nooo way politicians and public figures in the US could spew reactionary nonsense and get a huge following#unless the evil russians had a hand in it#cause it's not like the US is racism central or anything#come on now#(for those unaware i'm citing this tweet bc orientalism of this kind has historically been directed at russians/slavs in addition to#people from MENA and asian countries broadly)#6.) see point number 3 above; trying to police AI is a fruitless endeavor; people need media literacy in order to#understand the interests of the parties involved in the coverage of any event and better discern the truth about what's happening;#identifying the bias inherent to any news channel and then examining how that bias impacts its reporting does far more to help dispel#misinformation than just labeling anything you don't like or you think influences people the 'wrong' way as misinformation#anyway i'm done. clown.#sansgwilie

When I was in elementary school I went to circus camp and we would have balloon animal making as one of the activities/courses. Of course having a lot of children playing with balloons all day meant that they would quite often pop. It was quite loud when they would pop and usually everyone would stop what they were doing to look at what happened.
I cannot tell you why, but once during the first year I was attending the circus camp, after one of the balloons popped my undiagnosed unmedicated ADHD ass just yelled “HAPPY NEW YEAR!” in response. Of course everyone was confused because why would I yell? and why would that be what I said? But we moved on.
It must have stuck in someone’s head though because a few hours later when the next balloon animal dog or whatever popped someone else yelled happy new year to react to it. And from that point on it became A Thing. Everyone, every time a balloon popped, would in unison yell “HAPPY NEW YEAR”. This would happen at least once a day. I was quite proud of myself for inventing this bit.
The next year, when I went back to circus camp, I found that the habit had stuck. Everyone was still yelling happy new year. Then one day I was sitting eating lunch with a group of kids and one of them asked the group why we yelled that, and no one knew. And they didn’t believe me when I told them I had come up with it. None of them had been there the year before. The counselors also didn’t remember it was me who started it. Me and my younger sibling were the only ones who knew and remembered.
Ultimately though, I didn’t care if people remembered me as the one who started the trend. It was fun, it was silly, it was communal. And more importantly it was something that I created that had gained a life of its own beyond me. Because isn’t that what humanity is for? Celebrating a silly mistake like someone popping a balloon. Coming together to yell a non-sequitur. Leaving a positive mark on a place. It’s not much but it’s honest work, to me.
#this is in honor of the last post I rb’d about people coming together to sing a song#and in honor of my school/fellow gender studies dept students low key rioting against the title IX coordinators last night#we interrupted their press conference and demanded justice#well not me I didn’t say anything I let the people who had been victimized by the title IX dysfunction speak#but yeah idk. there’s something beautiful to me about a group coming together and doing something#whether that be art or revolution or something silly like yelling happy new year at clown camp#murderous babble

just so you know how normal the UK is, left wing climate change activists and anti-monarchy protesters are getting jail time and beaten for simply holding up banners and being considered disruptive whilst right wing bullshitters against shit like ULEZ (literally about having areas that are specifically for ultra low emissions so we, y'know, don't constantly have to breathe in fucking car fumes and other pollutants because some fucking people actually bizarrely want to???) and road safety limits EVEN FUCKING RIGHT NEAR SCHOOLS are driving basically massive vehicles through the streets and are not considered a disruptive protest
#this is also after being a year or so into a fucking protest bill where the government can cherry pick which protests to break apart#also naturally police are turning off bodycams because of course they are#and a van was stopped by police because 'they had reason to believe they were going to disrupt the tory party conference'#also laurence fox - known fascist - was yelling in public about protecting children from trans people#and i haven't heard shit about the covid inquiry because bozo the clown stepped down in a tantrum when he wouldn't hand over his phone#despite the fact that probs about 17 parties that he was involved in took part in and around 10 downing street#DURING A FUCKING PANDEMIC IN DECEMBER 2020#WHEN EVERYONE WAS MADE TO FOLLOW THE RULES OR BE SANCTIONED#there's a giant wall in London with all the Covid victims and with the darkest irony#it's literally opposite the Houses of Parliament#and i highly doubt any of those people in there - especially the higher powers - have even fucking visited it#this is also the same fucking country that attacked a vigil for a woman brutally murdered by a police officer#claiming it was an unlawful gathering#whilst ignoring the christmas parties at downing street and the anti lockdown protestors#vent#rant#uk politics#my heart is fucking dead i don't have the fucking enthusiasm anymore#i wanna go back so damn much#my family and I do not have many friends now as a result

*me, talking to myself, covered in blood and viscera, staring at an opened word document*
it doesn't have to be perfect. it just has to be done. you're a baby academic. that's your first time at a conference. how about you think of it as a road trip to Kraków and maybe then you'll calm down
anne of xiety, despite the fact I'm basically done after 2.5 hours and i just have to edit out some of the repetitions: this paper sucks lol
#the conference is on thursday. I'm presenting on saturday. i have a lot of time to prepare. and learn it by heart#and also observe previous more experienced speakers#but still. I'm panicking#will it be too short? too long? too boring? too much quotations? not enough quotations? we just don't know#will i be able to talk to ppl without making a clown out of myself? we just don't know#I'm having all those theoretical lessons about ethics in research despite the fact that I'm studying 18th century#what kind of ethical conundrums I could possibly be solving#instead I should be given a lecture how to behave during the events and how to present things. also. some basic savoir-vivre would be nice#how do i speak to people how do i start a conversation abt topics I'm interested in my work#i just don't know#give me a decision tree or sth pls

I mean this in the politest possible way, but if you show up on a post and confidently assert something like "mosquitos are useless and invasive everywhere except africa", something that is easily disprovable by reading the first 2 lines of the damn wikipedia article, you are acting like a moron, and are going to get called one.
#hawk screeches#im allowed to be rude to people clowning on my post. lmfao. this isnt a research conference its tumblr dot gov

How About a Good Dose of Medicine to Heal What Ails You?
Oh, how I wanted to be my friend, the Class Clown. She could make any situation funny, without even trying. She was my roommate, Lois, at Canyonville Bible Academy in Oregon. She always had me, and others, in stitches. Now, I have a husband who is like that, too! BTW – please forgive me for my incessant referrals to this dear, hilariously funny man. He has surely given me lots of new content for…

I understand the impulse to clown on Essek for walking around in Vasselheim with his recognizable voice with the Bright Queen's spearhead commander, and of course we could turn to the metatextual elements (the necessity of signposting the world for players on the part of the GM, the ease of using a familiar ally to introduce a relevant NPC and new point of contact) to dismiss this if we wanted, but I think it's more interesting—and funnier, as you'll see���to imagine this as simply an extension of the laws and logic that dictate the Mighty Nein as a narrative entity.
Fundamentally, the Mighty Nein within their campaign pursue personal and collective agency, often at the expense or in denial of political power. Where they do interact with more political forms of power, they evade its grasp upon them, most notably in their interactions with the war, but also while they engage with the Cerberus Assembly, the Cobalt Soul, and even the Revelry. The way they pursue agency, on the other hand, has far more to do with their own support of one another and their own individual power, especially where there is magic involved, and manifests in having the freedom to move and act as they wish in the world.
The culmination of this, as we know, is the mechanical ability in their final battle against Lucien and the Somnovem to manipulate the terrain of the battle map to their advantage with only imagination. At the same time, Jester and Caduceus can both call in free favors from their gods, one of whom is unlimited by the Divine Gate and in fact is far more governed by fey logic. Fjord has made three different divine pacts and is virtually unrestricted by any of them. Caleb's hallmark is an almost infinitely malleable home that almost literally seems to operate as a hammerspace, with a pinnacle dedicated to the potentiality of the universe, the application of which is one of his signature spells—against all odds successful in his initial goal, no longer fueled by guilt and grief, of bending reality to his will. It's narratively and thematically cogent that this be the calling card of the party as a whole.
The Mighty Nein are, in effect, dictated by Looney Tunes logic, and nothing else. They have been so successful in their pursuit of their own freedom that they no longer abide by the cosmic laws of Exandria, let alone the laws of physics or sense. So yes, from an external point of view, it does look exceedingly foolish for Essek to be traipsing around in Vasselheim under the Bright Queen's nose, but it's far more entertaining to argue that being a member of the Mighty Nein in fact simply confers the capability of ignoring the laws of reality without consequence when it's narratively convenient, characteristically interesting—or just really fucking funny.
#critical role#cr spoilers#essek thelyss#mighty nein#cr meta#yes this is absolutely mostly for the lulz. I used the looney tunes logic metaphor last night and was fucking cackling#but I do think it's also a fully coherent and consistent application of the nein's overall movement through the world
