#got deposed

[nobody-expects-the-inquisitorius]

Shoots a CEO point blank in the middle of the street. Allegedly flirted with a hostel worker right before this. Writes "deny, defend, depose" on the bullets. Escapes on a bike. Leaves decoy Monopoly money for the cops. I'm telling you this man is just Loki

"Deny, Defend, Depose" boutta be my new live laugh love sign

i need this shit as a wall decoration

[mainelad]

so people who kill multiple people and have prior charges (school shooters and mass murderers and January 6th rioters) can get off with simple murder charges but when you kill (checks notes) exactly one healthcare CEO you get terrorism charges thrown at you? mmmmmmmmmkay.

The way these ghouls keep doubling down is crazy. They’re terrified of the plebs now, but instead of using their vast hoards of wealth to hire their own goon squads they want the taxpayers to pay for it. And the government is all too happy to offer that. Embarrassing country.

The One Fact Pact

I want to see a fic where the chain is rigorously keeping their secrets and stories hidden, but they've all learned to trust one another. Like, it's past time they should probably be sharing things because it's beginning to get annoying, they all agree, but it's sorta become a habit by now? They kept those secrets and now no one really wants to share first?

So, to keep things interesting and get some momentum going, they make a deal.

Whenever they come across something that reminds them of their travels, their quest - be it an item, a familiar name, a location - they've got to share ONE fact or story about it.

But only! When they're in other people's time, because otherwise it'll just be a staged tour and one person infodumping and that's exactly what they're trying to avoid (and it won't be a fun competition they can make bets about).

And then either they go through worlds slowly building trust and understanding of each other through a long drawn out and incidental series of tidbits....

Or they immediately get stuck in wild's hyrule for ages.

Everyone's arguing over who the latest ruin belongs to. Time and wind are getting into an argument about the kokiri. No one can agree on the zonai. Wars is taking immense pleasure in pointing out anything someone else might have missed. Legend is resolutely ignoring eventide. Twilight claims the entire faron woods until they step into the hot and humid jungle for the first time.

Wild thinks he's immune because it's his world so he legally can't answer questions, but everywhere they visit there's a piece of his own story in the rubble or on the wind.

Wild: *happily making tea and checking his slate with the other hand* okay, looks like tomorrow we can reach the breach of demise and to new serenne stable. Just past that- Sky: *choking on his drink* the what?? Wild: the breach? Sky, weakly: Why's it uh, called that? Wild: oh, it's an old story. Apparently eons ago it's where a demon godking came up from underground to the surface world... *suspiciously* Why? Sky: gimme the slate. *squinting at the shape on the map*... I can neither confirm nor deny. Wild:... What do you mean? Sky, remembering the One Fact Pact: I can neither confirm nor deny. What's important is that I killed him. The entire chain, variously: YOU KILLED A DEMON GOD?!!? Sky *recalling the hardest fight of his life*: what, like it's hard?

And then he just refuses to elaborate.

God, I’m just so mad and upset and I need to rant for a minute:

I live in Wisconsin, where the last several years winters here have been scarily mild. It’s not uncommon for us to have a mild winter every few years or so, but we’ve been having milder and milder winters for the past several years in a row. Winters here are supposed to be long and snowy. It’s supposed to start snowing in November, sometimes October, and the snow doesn’t melt all the way till April, sometimes early May.

Last year, I felt like we barely even had a winter. There was snow on the ground for maybe two months total, it kept melting and then coming back, which isn’t supposed to happen. The snow will maybe melt after the first couple times, but once you get to December, it’s supposed to stay on the ground until Spring.

Same thing is happening this year. It’ll snow for like two days, stick for maybe one day, and melt. It’ll stay that way for a couple of weeks. It’s January now. The fact that there’s no snow on the ground, in fucking Wisconsin, is alarming. The fact that this has been happening several years in a row now is alarming. I’m seeing it happen right in front of me. We’re all seeing the effects of climate change now, and we’re seeing how it’s directly destroying and harming the planet. We can see it with our own eyes.

I’m thinking about the fires in LA right now. I saw someone talk about how they were alarmed they were getting these kinds of winds in January. (I’m not familiar with LA climate but this person talked about how abnormal it is).

Everything the scientists have been saying about climate change is coming true. It’s happening right in front of us, for the whole world to see. And still, the people responsible, the right-wing politicians and businesspeople that profit off of this just deny deny deny. How can you deny what’s happening right in front of everyone? They are destroying our planet, and they still think they can deny it happening. It just makes me so angry. That a handful of people have the power to destroy our planet and refuse to even acknowledge it. They act like the words “climate change” is liberal propaganda. As if it’s not something we can see happening right before our eyes. They pretend it’s political, they pretend it’s a conspiracy, because they have no other way to justify being against protecting the planet.

One thing that angers me most is that the only thing people seem to do about this is complain on social media. (I know, that’s exactly what I’m doing, but hear me out). LA is burning to the ground because of climate change, and what’s anybody going to do about it? Make a post on Twitter? Maybe write an article about it?

That doesn’t change anything. We need change. We need direct action. It’s only going to get worse if we keep letting companies and governments continue as they are. They cannot continue as they are.

If you haven’t heard of the book How to Blow Up a Pipeline, go look it up. The author talks about a lot of the stuff I want to get at here, but he puts it a lot better.

My hope is that these LA fires will start a movement for stopping climate change. Not just a general shift of opinion like we’ve seen the past few years, but a real movement where people show up in person to do something. We exist in a time where Luigi Mangione is seen as a hero for his actions, I hope people will get inspired to take more direct action in regards to climate change. (That doesn’t mean shooting more people, I’m not advocating for murder, but we need to start taking action beyond just complaining on social media).

I’m going to start researching resources to help myself and others to get more involved with preventing climate change. I hope one day, we’ll have an actual winter in Wisconsin again. To everyone in LA, please please stay safe❤️

Sighs.

This guy steals art from others and puts a random/harmful link in all of their posts. Report and block please!

[marcysdreamydays11]

Ok buddy, youre next better get extra protection💀

[foxx-queen]

so the writers can give l*andrin random subplots and make up scenes for her that include taking scenes from siuan and twisting them, just to make her 'sympathetic' when she works for the dark one and literally sells girls into slavery, but they have to write siuan doing the most out of character shit I see how it is

Deep sigh

ponder:

if you squint at Persona 5, translate it into a literary perspective, ignore a lot of the other parts of the game UNDER the mindset of said literary perspective; and focus in on how it handles the reaction of Japan and the Larger World via social media... I feel like it makes a compelling portrayal of how, for the lack of a better term, the memetic spread of the Phantom Thieves would build and build. A lot of P5's... well, everything... is steeped in our Capitalist Rot mindset (due to being made in Japan by a Capitalistic Large Company™) so it's become one of my guilty pleasures since I played it 5 years ago. (...and played it. and so on and so forth 'till I have like 3 complete save files all 100s of hours long) But, if I look past the various pitfalls that it's scenario of production inflicts on it- and zoom in on how specifically the Phantom Thieves of Hearts threatened the rich elite's grip on power and the public-at-large's divided views on them during most of the game: Well, I mean, you're kinda seeing it recently. I'm guessing that; those even more cautiously planned than that poor dude (who was already quite planned) will start smaller-but-none-the-less-flashy. What matters most: Balancing public perspective is much harder with even D-tier Rich Bastards.

Aye, there's the rub; the flighty fickleness of the Public Eye. How they root for heroes yet turn on them the second they learn a new thing- regardless of fact. How Persona 5 reacts to their CEO death is where another split in the whims of fate takes place. Which, makes more sense when there's a narrative reason as to why it happened: dramatic tension. The public needs, sadly, a story. It seems to me, though, as if a story is starting to be told now.

[jellysshitpoems]

This might be a controversial take but y’know personally I think we should shoot more ceo’s. Think it’d solve a lot of problems.
