#i don’t think they overreacted at all

hot take but I maybe think the whole ‘no reaction when seeing bodies of dead poc babies’ isn’t actually that people aren’t having a reaction. it’s hopelessness and overwhelm we’ve learned to mask and it looks like we don’t care. but most people do. they just feel stuck as if they don’t know how they can help. outrage requires novelty otherwise it literally becomes a mood disorder

like i really don’t wanna go into specifics because i do enjoy this person’s friendship but. it kinda hurts when you text me about a movie you’ve just seen and i make a note to check it out (and then do). but you refuse to like, even consider the new show i suggest because it “doesn’t really seem like something you’d like” based on the four tiktok clips you’ve seen. or because you think the lead actor’s ugly. etc etc

i’ve long since given up on the fantasy of an Accepting Family but i’m kind of tired of my mother pretending she’ll ‘try’ and support my transition only for her to turn around and tell me i’m making a mistake and i’m making her sad by doing it and also refusing to help me with even the tiniest things. i asked if she would drive me to my bloods appointment tomorrow because i don’t drive and i’m terrified of blood tests and i always faint afterwards so i don’t want to have to walk back home which takes over an hour. and she said no even though she’s not busy with anything else and it’s a short drive. she just doesn’t want to. and i’m not trying to act like a spoilt bitch who expects to get chauffeured everywhere but i would rather she stop pretending to be ‘trying’ when she doesn’t actually act like it at all

AAAH I have a mutual who’s 18 and he sorta kinda is flirting with this one guy who is a minor as a joke of course ( to which a concerned anon said that it’s weird ) but I can’t help but flashback to er*s

i actually hate this whole AI voice cloning thing. even when people are ‘just’ using it for funny jokes w/ famous people— making their voice say things they obviously never said/never will say— it still gives me a really really bad feeling, just like deepfakes/AI face replacement does. and the more these AI models are used and learn, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real and what isn’t

I’m just a grumpy old Two-Stater, but…

You see, the thing is, when I see University Protestors chant “Globalize the Intifada”, when I see them yell at Jewish students (their fellow members of the student body, no less) to “go back to Poland”, when I see them carry signs and make chants that invoke the Final Solution, when I see them drape themselves in the flags of Hezbollah or Hamas, when I see them refer to Hamas as “the resistance”, when I see them praise the Houthis for their “blockade of Israel” (when all that really happened was the indiscriminate firing of missiles at random civilian shipping belonging to other unrelated countries, and also a major ecological disaster), when I see them express support or sympathy or apology for these and other IRGC-backed terror organizations, when I see them engage in 10/7 denialism or even soft Holocaust denialism, when I see them claim that any Israeli civilian is a legitimate target for violent “decolonization”, when I see them imply that the only acceptable solution to the conflict is one that involves the expulsion of all Israeli Jews from the southern Levant…

I’m just forced to make a snap judgement as to whether these people are:

A) Actually Genuinely Evil, or

B) Severely misguided, under-informed people who are experiencing genuine (and correct!) horror at watching constant needless and horrific slaughter play out on every available source of information they have, and are responding to this horror the only way they know how, by gathering en masse and screaming at the only source of authority they have access to: their school administrations. Because that’s just what people in their social groups do in response to genuine and heartfelt outrage, and they just wind up going along with the antisemitic crap because of the “wisdom of the crowd” effect and because they don’t know any better.

And, to me, even after months of this, option B) still seems not only more likely to be actually correct, but also far more charitable.

But the thing is, when called out for all of that, they always double down. They equivocate and deflect and hide behind claiming that the above examples are all just “anti Zionism not antisemitism”, and they dismiss and demean the perspectives and fears of Jewish people and those of us who stick up for them.

And all of that just really makes me start to wonder about option A) after all.

Atiny twitter is infighting over woosan shippers and I get it but fans need to stop being hypocritical and decide if they are actually against rp shipping or if they just hate woosan

San got an umbrella on his new custom in ears and people started getting mad at anybody who mentioned woosan but you could say SH and HJ are fucking and people would think it’s funny and cool to say

Some venting in the tags because sometimes it’s easier to vent into the void than talk to my therapist 🙂 Although I should probably make an appointment and bring this up with her. Don’t mind me being depressed for a minute 😂 Carry on with your whoring and other shenanigans
