Gonna be really funny* 6 months from now when everyone who voted for him because the price of burgers is too high** realizes that things are even more expensive because his economic policies are ass, and everything else is shittier as well

* Not funny at all

** To be clear, this is why he won. People are mad things aren't as cheap as they used to be, and were willing to ignore literally everything else

Tumblr's Favorite Side Black Bull

I just realized we can add up to 12 options in a poll and decided to throw a classic favorite member poll, Asta, Noelle and Yami aren't included since they're main characters, and Nacht ends up being excluded as well to give space for the less popular members ^^"

how long do you think 13 waited before dragging chase to therapy?

she told him they were going to a really cool club for sexy singles and instead it was the PTSD and Adult Trauma Survivors weekly meeting in the church of St Mary's. actually 13 had never been there either she just figured if it was a group session she could make sure he didn't climb out a window or something. (she had treats snacks in her pockets. just went full taking the dog to the vet about it)

they both thought the whole group therapy thing was super lame and couldn't look at one another because they kept pulling faces and laughing, but UNO REVERSE 13 actually did like some of the stuff the group councilor was saying and there was a woman there who was also coping with her brother's recent death and she got pretty into it. chase meanwhile didn't say a word buuuuut didn't hate it. and so they kind of dared one another to go back next week. like i thought it was stupid but you liked it, so……

for at least a few weeks everyone thought they were dating and that chase was just there to support his partner so it was very embarrassing when 13 had to admit actually a) they were not dating. ever and b) she was here to support him, she's chase's support, he's the one who needs therapy — yes janice she would like to share her story though.

"people seem to be basically advocating for the creation of an ethnostate" YES thank you, a government that is based on blood quantum is wrong on so many levels. Even if the feds were to give tribes the national parks or forests like i see a ton of people advocating for on Tumblr (not co-management but all management like i keep seeing), it would still be telling people with the wrong ethnicity that they're incapable of protecting, or possibly even visiting, public lands because they aren't a certain color. Indigenous people are an oppressed minority, no questions about that, and they should receive reparations for their generational abuse. But creating an ethnostate is not the answer. (I would've replied on main but people got really mad at me last time I said "this is literally promoting an ethnostate" so thank you for saying it out loud)

Yeah, I just don't think there's any way to lock public power behind an ethnicity requirement that isn't extremely fucked up. And it really bothers me how many people defend it with "well it'll be fine because Indigenous people are all perfectly good with a Connection To The Land! Only a colonizer would think people with absolute authority might abuse that authority!" You can argue about whether or which land should be returned, but do it without the Noble Savage racism, y'know?

It's also the exact line of defense Israel is using to justify its actions in Palestine and Lebanon. "It used to be ours, it's culturally significant, it's a sacred site, we were forced out so we have the right to take it back and to maintain our majority through an apartheid state". It's a really fucking dangerous line of thinking! Ethnostates are fucking bad, and when you say "this ethnicity should be placed in power", I think it's reasonable to be a little concerned about the implications of that!

And frankly the idea that indigenous people are better at environmentalism or have some sort of inherent connection to the land that nobody else does seems like an abdication of responsibility. I think it's true that many indigenous cultures prioritize environmentalism in a way that mainstream American culture doesn't, but that's not because they have magic fucking blood. You, too, can form a connection to the land! You can become an environmentalist! If enough of us do it, mainstream American culture will start to prioritize environmentalism as well! But that might involve educating yourself on local issues, contacting your representatives, voting in every election, or getting involved in a local environmentalist group, and y'know, that's a lot harder than posting online about how we should pass that responsibility onto someone else who's "naturally better at it".

as much as Zionism is a colonial project (though I tend to take the view as expressed in "Decolonizing Jewishness" re: Zionism as failed decolonization attempt) I think it's extremely reductive to claim that Ashkenormativity is to blame for the colonial nature of the Zionist reality. as more and more people from outside of Jewish spaces are introduced to the concept of Ashkenormativity, "Ashkenazi" is being used as a synonym for white and for colonizer.

this is not the whole picture. first and foremost, a large percentage of Ashkenazim are not white, though of course many of us are. conflating Ashkenazim with whiteness, both inside and outside of the Jewish community, contributes to the erasure of Jewish People of Color. additonally, the first Jews in the western hemisphere, arriving with conquistadors and colonizers, were, in fact, Sephardi. in the US, almost every Jewish person was Sephardi until the second half of the 19th century. Sephardi and Mizrahi Jews have also historically participated in and currently participate in Zionism, including in the settlements. furthermore, when we're talking about Israel's suppression of diasporic culture, a very real phenomenon, we need to discuss how many Ashkenazi cultural elements were also suppressed - including Yiddish and Ashkenazi Hebrew. in fact, Ashkenazim from Europe who wanted to hang onto their diasporic cultures were considered weak and effeminate. this reality should make sense to everyone who is aware of how Holocaust survivors are treated in Israel. in Israeli society, there is contempt for EVERY Jewish culture that is not Israeli, and of course that is compounded and exacerbated by racism for Mizrahi, Ethiopian, Indian, and other Jewish groups of color.

it's not the same dichotomy as the Black vs white dichotomy set up by US/UK/French/Spanish/etc colonization, and the term "Ashkenormativity" being taken out of Jewish contexts and applied to Zionism just makes Ashkenazim a convenient scapegoat for all the evils of Zionism. the main consequence I'm seeing is the idea that Ashkenazim are "fake European Jews" in contrast to the "real Middle Eastern Jews." this idea hurts us all. Jewish people are from every corner of the globe, and every Jewish person is a real Jewish person. I'm asking those of us who are pro-Palestine to tread very carefully when discussing this issue, and maybe retire the use of "Ashkenormativity" when it comes to discussing the racism of Zionism, which Jewish people from every diasporic background can and do participate in. Ashkenormativity refers to the centering of Ashkenazi history and customs when discussing Jewishness, and I'm really concerned that the way I'm seeing it used does not meet that definition and is not helpful (and maybe ends up centering Ashkenazi "evilness" or "Europeanness" while still not discussing Sephardi, Mizrahi, and other Jewish diasporic group's histories at all outside of their interactions with Ashkenazim in Israel). there's a lot of racism Jewish spaces, in Zionism, and in Israeli society, I just think we should call it racism and white supremacy.
