Colonization never really stop it only takes on new faces because who you come to a country to live and you do not adapt to its customs and way of living? worse if you only come to visit and learn? The point of tourism is to get to know new cultures but instead you want to come and have your life be the same as in the United States and that we locals have to adapt (in Mexico the gringos began to complain about the noise that the sellers make in the streets that are why they don't buy local and in Mazatlan together with the help of businessmen they want to ban the bands of cultural expressions that have been part of our country for decades just because that bothers them but if we Mexicans go to the USA and want to speak a litle of Spanish we get crucified)
#hate this i relly do the cost of living is getting much worse#to the point the only got thing or glad that im my homecity got destroyed whit a hrruicne cose he was also getting more a more expesive liv#mexico#current events#colonialism#imperialism#gentrification#class war#classism#personal yapping

congratulations to Mme. Pascale Leclerc, who has surely just experienced both the funniest and most unhinged weekend a mother could ever have. Dear fucking christ, I hope your middlest son brought you a bottle of champagne for yourself, ma'am.
#kazoo noises#charles leclerc#cl16#monaco gp 2024#zoomies posting#sports posting#like man. where to begin. one of your racecar children is back in town for the weekend. he has yet to have a truly good work#weekend it seems in town. now this year. we're feeling ourselves a bit. we're feeling optimistic even. and then ur son becomes talk of town#because he keeps doing fucking bits on twitter about adopting his coworker who is friends with your youngest son. this goes on long enough#for actual reporters to comment on it. no one is willing to blink first so by friday night we've yes-anded ourselves to a grandson#(congratulations mme leclerc)#things go well. and then at qualifying they go DAMN WELL#BETTER THAN EVER REALLY! but man. im superstitious. i dont trust shit until its over and the dust has cleared#(the adoption jokes have continued by the way) and MEANWHILE everyone is eyeing that starting grid. were humming. we're making vague hand#gestures when commenting. we're all thinking. Maybe? (the streets can hear u tho. keep it down)#race starts. lap one CHAOS. so many fucking crashes. i'd faint if i had a child even in karting honestly.#(every parent in this sport deserves a prescription for laudanum)#but he's not in it. hes at the front. and he. well. he just Stays There. Through It All. and the laps tick down. until the race is run. and#there he is. your middlest son. cross the line and into the books. first place. home town. what curse indeed. thats your boy!!!!!!!! THERE!#they play the radio of him winning and the audio is peaked because he screams out so loudly. you can hear the water in the laughter.#later theres gonna be videos and photos taken of him pushing his boss into the harbor and diving right in after the man. those photos are#gonna be fucking studied in photography classes one day. and STILL! everyone involved with that goofy joke about him adopting his coworker#(who. despite all the silliness of the race stayed second place and got a podium) is still carrying the bit like a baton relay. Do you have#him over for family dinner? might as well add a plate i guess! people are joking about your youngest son having two nephews? a dog born#maybe a month ago and a man born about... what twenty three years and about a month ago? fuck it! family dinner#sorry this bit got away from me but as someone who loves my homecity and my mom so much it might actually be like.#a visible growth inside my body if they do an autopsy on me at time of death or like. my love will eat me alive. sometimes the charratives#gets to me#anyway cheers mme leclerc i hope you party so fucking hard this week

guys uh. i woke up this morning to find d.eath to c.anada trending on twitter (& i never go on twitter these days) which i agree with in the sense that a state supporting apartheid & genocide of indigenous peoples & also continues to arm medinat yisrael the modern state despite their literal war crimes & what they're doing to palestine syria & lebanon w/ other things is horrible so out of curiosity i click on it &. the main protester said land back (awesome!!) & "the palestinians will return" (WOOHOO) but she (i don't know her name) literally said october 7th was a "miraculous operation" (...you mean when a literal holocaust survivor was killed?) & "we are hezbollah, we are hamas". i was fine with everything else until i heard that. like atp i can't keep quiet. like. this is actually concerning to me. as an antizionist native jew i'm naturally all for the land back movement, i'm all for free palestine as i've said & demonstrated many times before. but like. you can protest & fight to end the genocide & colonialism & imperialism & the occupation & want liberation for different people & fight antisemitism & islamophobia & save as many lives as possible (naturally as you SHOULD) without glorifying literal terrorist groups & their literal war crimes. y'all realize that right. y'all realize that you can fight for more than one community & cause at the same time right. i& like i looked up hezbollah's past leader, s.ayyed n.asrallah, & like. guys he was Not a good fucking person. he point blank said "if we searched the entire world for a person more cowardly, despicable, weak and feeble in psyche, we would not find anyone like the jew", "what do the jews want? they want security and money, throughout history the jews have been Allah's most cowardly and avaricious creatures, if you look all over the world, you will find no one more miserly or greedy than they are", supported holocaust denial saying that the jews exaggerated the legend of the nazi atrocities & the numbers are greatly exaggerated & condemned jews as murderers of the prophets. do. do y'all understand that. do y'all understand how antisemitic that is. if you want the end of the occupation, if you want a peaceful resolution & if you want to save as many lives as possible, supporting & glorifying someone like that postmortem is not how to do it, obviously i'm not saying we have to stand around & be passive & do nothing while the israeli government does it's horrible shit but we can support the free palestine movement without glorifying the actions of a literal raging antisemite who believed in holocaust denial. we need to be mindful of who we're supporting & whether or not said people or groups are problematic whether it's antisemitism or islamophobia. guys can we turn on our logical brains PLEASE before someone gets hurt or g-d forbid even worse.
#arcana.txt#to be very clear this is NOT directed at my moots but seeing this (in my homecity of all places) was Very fucking unnerving.#i was fine w/ everything until i heard that & im like???????? no????????#it's honestly horrific.#but let me be clear: if you are not fighting antisemitism in your spaces You Are Part Of The Problem.#tw; antisemitism#& now gross white conservatives are like ''okay ban all pro palestinian protests'' bc they're gross#If You Do Not Fight Antisemitism In Your Activist Spaces You Are Not An Ally To Jewish People

actually headcanon: right after the agatean empire turned into a republic (maybe a federation or some other fancy word to describe not being a cruel tyranny anymore) open for trade rich people thought for some reason that they're gonna make an easy buck since "they just started trading so they must have zero experience" but were quickly disproven when they found out that over several centuries the agateans have created the most confusing disgustingly complicated viciously elaborate bureaucratic system in the entire history of the disc just because they had nothing else to do; any attempt to scam this government would be forced to go through at least fifteen different circles of paper and ink based hell controlled by people wearing square glasses and formal black and white attire strangely resemblant of the traditional clothing executioners wore before death penalty and all (known) methods of torture got banned... and then if even those found nothing the request to sell five tons of birch for three tons of gold landed right on twoflower's desk and no matter how naive this man is in interpersonal matters he knows precisely what birch is worth due to years of making sure he doesn't have to pay if the owner intentionally burns the entire forest down
in fact, these people know their worth ever since climbing out of the womb, trying to scam even the most average agatean will get you cussed out with some of the most detailed but uniquely non-obscene wordings known to anybody ever; they value themselves and their time and don't like getting lied to, that's why it was pretty easy to convince them the old empire deserved to be overthrown once they saw the first batch of foreigners come in not looking like cruel barbarian demons whatsoever; nowadays even the most conservative auntie will tell you that the old emperor was a total [redacted for legal reasons to avoid paying moral damages] and of course an absolute [redacted out of fear of invoking the emperors vengeful spirit] for trying to mess with his people about these weird backwards folks who had trouble understanding the most basic paper money before a wet guy made some for them
#discworld#a certain abbreviated-name businessman was of course one of the first morporkians trying to peacefully scam agateans#everything almost went well before he got slipper slapped by an old woman and immediately got the first ticket back to his homecity#because no matter how persistent and well experienced you are a nice wooden toed slipper changes the minds of most#headcanons#twoflower loves his new position as the never seen before concept of a vice emperor cause now he gets paid over fifty monetary units more#and of course because now that one of cohens many kids gets to order tea ceremonies for fun he can sell insurance to entire countries#finally he gets to repeat the word “technically” at least twenty times a day and he couldn't be happier#silly little thoughts

red valley is so good but to me, clive sounds like nothing other than an evil martin blackwood, and subsequently that is what he looks like in my head. in an evil twist of fate, my martin blackwood design has been Brazilian for years. contrary to clive schill, who might be the least Brazilian guy of all time
#when that fucking ship pulls up to rio de janeiro..................#THE FACT THAT IT HAPPENS IN RIO DE JANEIROOOOO#Gordons homecity ifucking love red valley

My sillies
Mother daughter duo jazzy and Susie.
Jazzy is the mother of Susie and is a well known DJ they were introduced as side characters to help kids with single parents or adopted children feel less alone.
Jazzy and Susie live on the beach but Wally and the others still considers them neighbors.
After the episode beach day where they were introduced you can see Susie running around in the background chasing Eddie or trying to bite Julie.
Susie is the shortest puppet on the show she teaches children about ocean animals and swimming safety she acts as a lifeguard saving Frank form almost drowning.
When jazzy isn't home off doing one of her gigs Susie sleepover at the other neighbors house her favourite is Poppy.
Jazzy is the only character who doesn't speak she's not mute just very sleep deprived and communicates to the cast in nods or hand gestures.
#welcome home arg#welcome home#wally darling#welcome home sally#barnaby welcome home#poppy welcome home#frank welcome home#home welcome home#eddie welcome home#julie welcome homec#welcome home oc

I think one thing that says a lot about the state of transit in the US is that my local transit system is known for frequent derailments, randomly catching fire, etc and myself and most of my local friends complain about it plenty but whenever I have friends visit from other parts of the country (esp the western half) the reaction is very often, "Whoah! We can take a train to get pretty much anywhere worth going in the city. That's crazy."
#btw when i inevitably get priced out of my beloved homecity if i can't get to providence or philly#i'm just cutting my losses and moving to rural maine or new mexico or something#if i'm going to live in a car dependent area i want the peace and solitude of nature around me lmao#like truly cannot stand being in car centric cities+towns

Taking the train at 03:53 am is a wild experience - it's the first time ever I've been on a train that's not crowded
Also turns out there are times when there are no traffic jams in TLV - at 4 am.
Didn't think it's possible bc there are traffic jams even at 2 am in TLV, but apparently 4 am is different
#I've lived in the centre almost my entire life (excluding my service) and that was a First#a train I can actually comfortably sit on?!#no traffic jams?#in TLV???#who are you and what did you to do my homecity @ 4 am

Let me make this very clear:
You are not as good of a driver as you think.
You are certainly not as good a driver to allow yourself to engage in these habits
Nobody is
Why do so many people make tiktoks while they're clearly driving. What the fuck. Stop that shit, you're gonna kill someone.
#i am a pretty lawful good i am a stickler for the rules unless they are truly malicious#but i have always tried to keep to the road safety rules#I very rarely forget to do a look over my shoulder when i turn.#and then i did once#and a biker was in my blind spot#luckily it didn't came to a collision but that was so fucking frightening#i tried to excuse myself by saying that i am not used to bikelanes being used#bc in my old homecity rarely anyone used them (topography reasons)#but that is not a way to excuse almost having RAMMED INTO ANOTHER PERSON#and I have been praised for being a VERY GOOD DRIVER#YOU ARE NOT THAT GOOD#YOU ARE NOT THAT SMART#YOU WILL NOT BE THAT PREPARED#AND IF YOU KILL SOMEONE? That blood will be on your hands- entirely. until your dying day
