Regan appointed a retired 4-star navy admiral who was a conservative Catholic to the his Commission on the HIV Epidemic while it was still happening. The dude he put in charge of an EPIDEMIC is the same dude whose last job can best be described as “ocean”. He excelled at ocean no doubt but ocean is not what you need in an epidemic. The whole thing screams, “I don’t care whether queer people live or die specially because they are queer”. It was called the gay disease and many people thought it was righteous retribution. Despicable.

BUT Watkins (the general) pulled an UNO reverse card on Regan and it was glorious. He actually handled it really well surprising queer activists. He did a great job and advocated for queer people in a number of different ways like advocating for large expansions in treatment for intravenous drug users and expanded legal protections for queer people when it comes to job discrimination. He did such a great job in the face of overwhelming odds.

You might say “hes a general organizing things is kinda their thing”. I guess… but he he knew nothing of AIDS before he started. At least Faucci is an immunologist.

There is a great primary source article in the LA Times archive from April 17, 1988 but their website won’t let me copy the link.

Back to fall out boy. Fall out boy has always been a political band. Anyone who says otherwise hasn’t been listening to them or their music. They’ve made themselves incredibly clear over the last couple of decades. In their music and statements. Both implicitly and explicitly. The aren’t the only ones. Green Day and rage against the machine being two other notable examples of. People who are surprised need to relisten. I think giving Elton John those lyrics was in intentional political statement.

Honestly, I’m tempted to make a list of top 10 political statements by fall out boy. Number one probably being from 20 dollar nose bleed.

You can't just have Elton John sing lyrics like "oath of silence for the voice of a generation" and "you are what you love not who loves you" and expect me not to get emotional.

In the supernatural AU, vampires have an exciting background. While other beings such as werewolves, fairies, dragons, etc were created by Deities (or have evolved from such creations, but I'll talk about that in another post), vampires exist because of humans.

Specifically, witches. They got so far in their magic that they could create copies of themselves to perform mundane tasks. However, these copies made by magic were soon devolving when left unchecked, as magic tends to do.

Not human, but alive still, they became the first vampires when they killed the witches that created that. An epedemic started when they ventured out into the world and infected others, turning humans into one of them.

Werewolves, opposed to such magic from the start, set out to destroy the copies while the remaining witches fought the copies.

Vampires became a being, a creature, a monster, feeding on humans. Their origin is unknown to most even though the feud between them and werewolves remain.

How many original vampires remain, if any, is unknown. They say one of the eldest reside in the catacombs below the city that doesn't sleep, but that's just a rumour.

oh my god. twitter is so badly moderated right now that there’s an account going around warning people because there’s an active epedemic of people posting animal torture videos, zoophilia videos, zoosadism (which is animal torture and zoophilia in one) videos, gore videos, and downright illegal shit in replies. this is why you don’t fire your moderation team jesus fucking Christ.

And don't forget polio (that is coming back in a lot of places, for example Palestine).

In German the illness is literally called Kinderlähmung (children's paralysis). Children dying or getting disabled. It was an Epedemic that came back every five to six years in the last centuries. Infecting children aged 3 to 8, they died or got disabled.

My grandpa had children in his class that needed walkers bc their feet were paralysed and deformed. Or when the lungs get effected, most died but then they had the iron lung.

Some needed it just for short times, other need to live in it. (The person who lived the longest with an iron lung was Paul Alexander . He lived 72 years with the iron lung, he died March 2024 on Covid).

Also in 2022 in London and New York City they found the virus in the sewage.

Remember, history was awful. Never trust the romantics.

Do you believe in a true religion?

the testing was conducted with the experience in Europe. The White light to sanitize the epedemic in time of war and peace. Excavtion and Nuclear Bombardment.

Test your faith do you hear the beast of humantrafficking after the excavation is there are soul for reincarnation.

The church is padlock do you believe in God that you cannot see the demons that are within. The sword of spirit.

Because you shared this amazing vampire lore, I will share vampire lore too!

Vampires were created by witches unknowingly

Humans have always been a bit lazy so in order to truly study their craft they created copies of themselves

These copies were without silly needs such as hunger but could clean, cook, and suhc boring tasks

But the copies became sentient (who saw that coming)

The most powerful witches came together to end them all, which resulted in the destruction of the magic world

And the deaths of the most powerful witches and their copies

Except it didn't kill all the copies

These creations became the first vampires as they developped and created others but it kinda did not go well

The turned ones turned more and it became an epedemic

That's when werewolves began their hunt for these creatures and the fear of vampires began

Trick or Treat? 🦇

Trick! 👻

Although I think now is the perfect time to talk about a few fun facts about how the vampires in my back burner wip work, so you get a bonus treat too lol.

One of these days I'll make a post about the OC that spawned all this, but I'm really proud of the worldbuilding I've done so far and wanted to share. Vampires in this world are quite a bit different from the way they're typically portrayed. There are two types: True Vampires and False ones (I will think of a better name someday, I hope).

To become a True Vampire requires a few things:

Both sides must be willing. The human being bitten has to want to become a vampire, and the vampire has to want to turn the human. It won't work if neither is against it.

The transformation isn't instant. The person who's been bitten has to die "naturally", i.e. they can't end it early to speed things up. Sickness, age, and freak accidents will trigger their revival into a vampire.

It doesn't require draining them of all their blood, but it's not an insignificant amount either. They'll recover though.

True vampires are capable of using powerful magics and are immune to the many shortcomings being a False Vampire brings.

They don't need blood to survive, although they tend to like the taste and are naturally drawn to it.

Also they're immortal, of course.

False Vampires are a bit different. Going back to the death thing, the most common way people become this type of vamp is because they tried to cheat the system. Doing so will forever curse you to an eternity of being weakened by the sun (not killed, just in a lot of pain and discomfort), and lesser magic. They also tend to be more unhinged and almost feral, especially when they haven't had blood in a while. These are the vampires that more commonly align with the standards we're all used to. They need blood to live, hate sunlight and anything holy, and they rarely have any qualms about attacking humans despite having once been human themselves. The only thing they got out of this was the immortality they so desperately wanted.

Some False Vampires were never human to begin with, but that's a story for a whole 'nother post...
