thank you for coming to me with formula one drama flames. surely this will have no consequences. second. and i’m not plugged in here i’m forming opinions based on mutuals and their posts. i literally do just think it’s because lando norris is whinier (i DO NOT like that guy) than oscar piastri and oscar didn’t have a hot little barbie doll to scissor in the paddock yet. also i thought he hated carlos. i will also agree that comparing these little tax evaders politics like a morality bar where you can reach a shipping quota is so. so.

I’m sorry but if there is one thing the Tumblr left needs crucially, it’s the ability to celebrate.
I remember when marriage equality was called and there were waves of rainbows and love wins posts. When we successfully defeated Donald Trump, there was lukewarm relief, a reminder that you were only allowed one or maybe two days to celebrate and then it was back to work. That is if you were even a good person for voting Biden. We never did settle if he was better than Trump. (We did.). We didn’t celebrate student loan debt relief or any of the accomplishments of the Biden administration, or any of the times Trump was blocked, or other countries succeeding in keeping fascists out of office. Who cares if we had successes? It’s not good enough. Back to work!
And this anti-celebratory attitude stretches back to the past. On the 100th anniversary of female suffrage in America, we were reminded that not all women had the vote and so we weren’t allowed to celebrate. The only post I saw about Juneteenth was reminding us that there were enslaved people who were killed instead of freed and therefore celebrating the end of chattel slavery was wrong, and besides, we have prison labor so nothing really changed or got better and there’s nothing to celebrate anyway. Trans Day of Visibility comes with Trans Day of Remembrance so that people don’t fill the tags with hate crimes and death. So on and so forth. Nothing gets better. Nothing changes. Back to work!
So of course when we have a major setback, we fall apart and have to start frantic damage control. Frantic discourse ensues over how much people are allowed to unplug before it becomes bad and selfish. Yes, maybe you can have this one day off Mr. Cratchit but you better be here and miserable early the next morning. Like abusive bosses always insisting you squeeze out more, more, more, and any achievement is just proof you were lazy the other times and impetus for more work.
If we are never allowed to acknowledge any of our victories, how are we supposed to survive our defeats?

After the 2016 election I was frustrated and exhausted and deeply, deeply sad. I literally cried. The four years that followed were extremely stressful. But, notably, I didn’t hate the people who chose not to vote for Clinton. I’d been in their shoes in 2004, after all. And Trump was technically an unknown - we didn’t know for SURE how bad his presidency would be.
We know now.
Now, if you are a leftist who intentionally didn’t vote for Harris, I genuinely hate you. I hate you as a person who was willing to throw my safety under a fucking bus. I hate you for being sexist, homophobic, ableist, transphobic, xenophobic, racist, Islamophobic, antisemitic, etc.
You chose fascism. You knew what was at stake, and you intentionally let the fascist win.
I hate you more than I hate the people who voted for Trump. At least they’re honest. At least they admit to themselves they hate women, and Mexicans, and queer people. But you, the lazy leftist, you can’t admit you’re a bigot.
Any action or non-action that you took that resulted in Trump being elected means you consented to that outcome.
There are MULTIPLE news articles and political analysis talking about the fact that the Democratic Party will move right as a result of this loss. Of course they will. The people who bothered to vote chose Trump. He’s as far right as you can get. The people who didn’t vote obviously didn’t care about the outcome, and thus do not matter. The Democrats will not try to win back your vote - they will just move right. They will try to win the votes of right-wing “moderates”. Leftism is clearly not what this country wanted.
So fuck you. Fuck you. I hate you. You are worse than Trump and his voters. You’re a lazy, entitled bigot, and I hope the next four years destroy your fucking life. Maybe you’ll fucking listen four years from now - if we’re allowed to vote in a free election ever again in this country. To quote Trump, your hero:
“You’ll never have to vote again”.

Though in the godless liberal stronghold of Los Angeles County, the quaint city in which we live was largely red.
But, thanks to a lazy Republican Representative and Trump’s disastrous first (and now second) term, it’s shifted from purple and likely to blue as evidenced by the fucking insane turnout for the local Hands Off protest today.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And I know they say not to post pictures of yourself at protests in case the fascists come to get you. I say bring it on. I’ll fucking Steve McQueen my way out of whatever shoddily constructed concentration camp Trump’s team of idiots make.
Also, repping Tumblr and @improvisingfatherhood with my sign*.

very normal phillip banks tweet: i love the president of the united states and i'm gonna make a shitcoin like he did because i love him so much!
yeah it's kinda irritating people are asking if I'm hacked because 1. it's a lazy edit of my art, 2. it's crypto, and 3. I hate the president of the united states and I would do the exact opposite of whatever that fascist dickhead would endorse.
copy pasting from statement from my insta post:
"hey all, I was hoping to get access to my twitter again after it getting hacked (again) in January, but twitter has been completely unresponsive in helping me get it back. I never regained access, so this isn't me getting hacked "again", the hacker still has control of it.
apparently whoever has control of the account posted something a bit ago pushing some stupid garbage. I'm going to make this explicitly clear; I do not condone/endorse/associate with any cryptocurrency related to my art. this is also a lazy edit of my art and an obvious scam, if that wasn't clear.
I'm also going to make this clear; this isn't my account any more. as much as it hurts, as I've had it over a decade, my twitter isn't mine anymore. I miss my friends who haven't crossed over from that website. Just report the account/any posts that come out of it, because its not from me."

The Jedi should have done something about Tatooine and the Hutts. If only they sent Jedi to Tatooine and not just ignored it--
Tumblr media
Oh hi Quinlan. How's Tatooine circa TPM?
Anyway the Jedi should have done something about slavery in the galaxy outside the Republic's borders and not focused just on the Republic--
Tumblr media
Huh. The CIS were pretty cool with helping the Zygerrians reestablish their slave empire that the (checks notes) Jedi dismantled.
Anyway, the Jedi should never have joined the war at all. Sure the clone army existed and the clones would have to fight no matter what the Jedi decided to do, and yes, as far as the Jedi knew the clones were created by one of their order and so they had a responsibility to them in whatever capacity they could, and the clones being brainwashed into loyalty for the republic was established so convincing millions of them at once not to fight would be impossible that early on. And sure, Dooku, a Sith, led the galaxy's worst capitalists that wanted to make naboo look like child's play and kill countless civilians if the Republic didn't give in to all their demands, and yes the Jedi were linked psychically to the cosmos in a way where they could feel imbalance, death, and darkness, but they should have taken the moral high road and (checks notes) let both civilians and clones die from droids. Droids who are programmed and aren't going to hesitate about killing anyone. Droids who can't be negotiated with.
Of course they could have... Negotiated with the Sith Lord? Who wasn't actually the head sithlord in charge.
Then again the other Sith Lord who had been duly elected into office wouldn't have allowed that but...they should have tried!
Well they worked with hutts to use hyperlanes for the war they could have chosen not to fight in had actually tried harder! They were lazy and chose the easy path of being forced to dirty their hands because otherwise fascist billionaires and corporations would send programmed droids to kill civilians (like Naboo during TPM) until the Republic gave into their demands (unbridled capitalism which as we recall were totally cool with helping the Slave Empire they previously dismantled become a slave empire again).
The Jedi should have helped people and not tied themselves to the senate. They could have just negotiated with a galaxy worth of planets on a case by case basis.
Listen. Star Wars is a metaphor. It is not a one to one comparison of reality. The Jedi did all they could to help people and they did things that wore them down in body and soul because they had to make that sacrifice or let people suffer and die. There is no alternative in the galaxy they existed in. The Empire that Palpatine made is what they saw the CIS becoming.
Palpatine saw the Jedi as one of the biggest threats to his fascist empire so the plan was always to kill them. It's not illegal to be a Sith he might say, but he certainly made it illegal to be a Jedi.
I would love to know what people think, with the GFFA being what it is, and the size it is, and the Jedi numbering about ten thousand in the end what they were supposed to do as an alternative that would have had any of this end different.
If they hadn't joined the war people would have been enslaved and died and the Jedi would have still been hunted and killed.
If the Jedi removed themselves from the republic in protest of the war but still fought independently to help people they would have lost so much access, more clones for sure would have died, and the Jedi would still be hunted down and killed at the end.
If the Jedi left the republic before the war and were independents they would be slaughtered faster than they were on genonosis because they don't have the numbers. The droid army would get them or the republic run by Palpatine would get them. Keeping in mind Palpatine was elected and the Jedi had nothing to do with his election beyond saving a teenage girl and bringing her to beg her case to the senate on behalf of her people (the death toll was, as we remember, catastrophic).
If they retreated to the mountains and meditated then they just let people die without even trying to help and feel the cosmos become darker and more imbalanced by the suffering they could feel but we're ignoring. And years later Palpatine would show up to kill them because that aspect of his plan would never change.
They should have taken the moral high ground doesn't work in the scenario they were given in the universe they existed in. Not for them. Not when they are powered by empathy. It would have been a corruption of what they stand for if they didn't try to help people. And they tried. It wasn't their corruption that let the galaxy down. The Jedi were aware of their own flaws. They were aware they shouldn't be generals. They knew they shouldn't be commanding a clone army. They were under no illusions that the choices they were being forced to make were good, but even at their most morally questionable they didn't sell out the galaxy. It was the politicians that voted in a mass murdering fascist with thunderous applause to not just be supreme chancellor, to not just have emergency powers, but to be an emperor.
The Jedi even tried a coup. The last thing they would want, but they tried it anyway to hold back a Sith Emperor establishing his empire built on slavery and suffering who would later build a weapon that could destroy entire planets.
The Jedi did not lead to the downfall of the Republic. They were the last shield to be shattered.

On American soldiers serving during WWII:
“Sensitive” men often found one another while working on the extraordinarily popular “soldier shows” for which the USO provided the know-how and the materials. These shows were written, directed, and performed by men in the armed forces. Since there were no women in outlying camps, enlisted men would perform female roles in drag. Performances ranged from comic portrayals of burly men in dresses to realistic female impersonation. For actors and audiences, these performances were a needed relief from the stress of war. For men who identified as homosexual, these shows were a place where they could, in coded terms, express their sexual desires, be visible, and build a community. These lyrics for a “female” trio in a soldier show demonstrate how homosexual enlistees introduced their own humor into skits: Here you see three lovely "girls" With their plastic shapes and curls. Isn't it campy? Isn't it campy? We've got glamor and that's no lie; Can't you tell when we swish by? Isn't it campy? Isn't it campy?16 Later in the war, when WACs were available to perform with men, their involvement was limited; usually they worked backstage to help the men be made up as women. An indication of the popularity of female impersonation in soldier shows is evident in Irving Berlin’s This Is the Army. Written for an all-soldier cast, it premiered on Broadway in 1942 and a year later became a hit Hollywood film with Ronald Reagan. Both the Broadway and film versions featured soldiers dressed as women.
--A Queer History of the United States (2011), Michael Bronski; Chapter Eight: Sex in the Trenches
Fascists rely on a sanitized homogenized understanding of a hazily golden national history to hawk their wares to their recruits and dehumanize their enemies. Moral panics, too, rely on inaccurate popular understandings of history to promote attacks on their victims. Like every other human endeavor, these things spread themselves through stories.
WWII looms large in the American memory; we remember it as the last "innocent" conflict on our world stage, inaccurate as that is. (There is no such thing as an innocent player in a world war.) The military preoccupation with fascism and gender looms large, and WWII offers that for far-right ideologues searching for conformity, too: the masculinity of combat, the catharsis of the foxhole, the rigid conformity of the decades that follow. In the memory of such stand-up paragons of masculinity, the fascists will bellow, how can you permit the degenerate decadence of the modern drag queen, the obscenity of a trans woman being so much as permitted to exist? Surely the rejection of that masculinity would have disgusted and upset these fine soldiers, and how could you insult such icons?
But it isn't true. Drag, genderbending, and queerness were entertainments our grandfathers and great-grandfathers sought out, participated in, and shared with one another. Some of the queer ones fucked about it, and so did some of the straight ones, but not everyone. Some of the soldiers were playing, and some weren't. Either way, "female impersonation" was a staple of entertainment, both in the form of soldier-entertainers and for audiences back home. It continues to be a form of popular mainstream entertainment today, of course: only consider Mrs Doubtfire and Monty Python and RuPaul's Drag Race and Blackadder and MASH and Tyler Perry's Madea and Hairspray, to name only a few of many.
There's more than one way to knock down an image and an idol cherished by bigots, my friends. Don't forget that the stories the lazy fascists tell about how it was long ago and far away aren't the only stories left to tell. It turns out that the past wasn't any less full of degenerates and queers than the present is--or than the future will be.

the absolute mentality of the U.S right now should be studied. I can't believe how accurate that saying about democrats snapping defeat from the jaws of victory is.
the old man was up against TRUMP. A convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, accused pedophile, misogynist racist fascist. All the buzzwords rolled into one extremist mental patient. Dems still pushed for Biden to resign because of his age. You know what the stats are for presidents to get a second term? Much higher than convicted felons being sworn in. Sure, Biden isn't ideal, but he is one of the very few qualified candidates who could beat the maga hordes right now.
Ok fine, he resigned. Might've been the selfless move, best for him personally. Dunno how good it is for the nation, probably pretty bad. What now, though?
Well, surely Harris will take up the mantle. V.P, experienced prosecutor, young, charismatic, not to mention extremely progressive to meet all the quotes of democrats. Nah, that would make too much sense. I've already been seeing people argue against her. "Biden's failures are hers too", literally parroting conservatives but switching up the issues, so that instead of said "failures" angering conservatives, they anger dems.
"Careful what you wish for, a black president is how we got trump". literally arguing against diversity and progress out of fear of retaliation. not to mention, its not because obama was black that everyone's a fascist now. Its because he was a convenient scapegoat for corrupt billionaire-controlled media to use for fearmongering and angering the swing voters into maga arms. They used him to radicalize their base and the democrat voters weren't keeping up. lazy voters is how we got trump. I say we, even though im not american, because trump is definitely a global disaster.
Stop your defeatist, pessimist bullshit. stop repeating conservative talking points and stirring up controversy for now reason. stop infighting and disagreeing over candidates and just fucking settle for anyone who's not trump. you're handing this election to the guy who'll end elections. don't be a lazy voter, dont let 2016 happen again. vote blue.

I think a lot of the problems in the word stem from people confusing capitalism and communism.
“But in a communist society you would be poor and someone else will get your hard earned money! You might starve or freeze or be homeless!!”
So close darling, actually that’s capitalism.
“Capitalism is good because everyone gets what they earned and deserve!!”
Wrong again, that’s communism. Because everyone deserves the same. Everyone deserves to be able to live from the money they make. Everyone deserves a stable income.
“If we were in a communist society people would get lazy and don’t work hard enough anymore, but get their money anyways, that’s unfair!”
My sweet summer child. That’s capitalism. How hard do you think your boss is working for double the money you get.
“But they’ll take away my hard earned money!”
You work a 10h day with 7€ Minimum Wage. They already do.
“But what if the system is corrupt and some people get more money than others! What if few people on top of the chain, who are supposed to make sure everyone gets enough money hoard all the money and we don’t get enough to live anymore!!”
I’m gonna hold your hand when I say this….
“But the Soviet Union is a perfect example why communism is bad!!! Don’t you know history?!!!”
Stalin was a fascist and late state capitalist. The Soviet Union failed at being communist and instead turned capitalist the moment people on top started hoarding money and letting others starve. That was capitalism. The Soviet Union was just incredibly harmfully capitalist wirh a few extra steps.
Please listen to me.
People with less money than you aren’t trying to take your money.
People with more money are.

Can You Handle The Truth And Face The Facts?  
DemonRATs
According to Urban Dictionary – DemonRATs – The official definition for those whom call themselves “Democrats”, but try to undermine True Democracy, other political systems, forbid certain words, discriminate against certain persons whom don’t share the same points of view and opinions, cheat at elections, discriminate and use hate crimes against anyone whom doesn’t agree with their Fascistic or Communistic Agenda.  
True Democracy means to also fight for opinions you do not share. At the moment one doesn’t do this anymore, one loses the right to be called “Democrat”, and one becomes a DemonRAT, a twisted, dark, evil version of a “True Democrat”.
DemonRATs believe in being soft on crime, soft on national defense and terrorism, and extra rights for minorities and women.  
They basically also believe in Communism, Socialism, penalizing the productive thru progressive and high taxes, stealing from the earners and producers, and giving free money to the lazy and the non-producers.
They have also basically brainwashed the public, for no working person in their right mind would vote for this crap.

Agenda: Grinding America Down
The Fact-Based documentary detailing a COMMUNIST AGENDA for the last 70 years to corrupt American Institutions – from Education to Hollywood to Media – and sabotage America, and its values from within.
The main strategy is to Divide and Conquer – to turn Americans against each other.
After watching the documentary, at least you know why the DEMOCRATS Are COMMUNISTS.
The only way to DEFEAT the DEMOCRATS is to Call Them What They Are – DEMOCRATS Are COMMUNISTS.
Once the American people find out the Truth – DEMOCRATS Are COMMUNISTS, it could DESTROY the party forever.

In my harsh opinion, they are far more pro-genocide than the people they accuse, because they're basically saying they're perfectly fine with letting us all die and suffer just because we're willing to make difficult choices to ensure what maybe our final chance for the survival of the human race.
To willingly allow people to suffer under an American dictatorship is genocide, multiple genocides for that matter given Trump's hatred of Native Americans, Blacks, Jews, LGBT people and so on and so forth.
To allow a Christian Theocracy to take control and enforce their evil will upon us all under some cockamamie delusional belief that it would somehow bring upon a great revolution is both genocidal and pure idiocy.
To allow Netanyahu to continue his crusade by literally allowing the candidate that HE OPENLY STATES THAT HE PREFERS, WHO IS ALSO HIS FUCKING BESTIE IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD to gain power just to spite Harris and Biden out of some notion they're somehow WORSE than Trump is utterly bonkers and built on nothing resembling logic.
To willingly take away Palestine's only chance of survival, to allow even the possibility of finding any measure of peace between Palestine and Israel just to spite liberals and allow said American dictator to glass Gaza out of egotistical spite is genocidal in intent.
To allow worldwide fascism to take control just to spite a status quo that won't bend to their fantasies of a communistic/socialist/whatever new buzzword they're using utopia because they're too lazy and self-centered to do the actual work needed to make that even remotely possible is not righteous;
it's pure evil.
But they smother it under layers upon layers of whataboutism and self-righteousness because they CAN'T admit they're in the wrong.
They talk about being tough, but they break and cower the minute they have to make any compromises or face the consequences of their own side's actions. They talk about compassion, but gleefully use the atrocities of the conflict AND other conflicts from Syria for their own selfish attention-seeking, even outright talking over the very people they claim to stand for.
They are HIDEOUS people at heart, and their mask has fallen away. They are no better than the fascists they claim to oppose, and yet they have the GALL to claim that it's US who's the villain.
Pretty much.

I was excited to find your Sanji fic, but I saw that your blog is not a safe place for Jews. More than 80% of Jews identify as Zionists. That’s 12 million people. A Jew is telling you that by putting ‘Zionist not welcome’ in your bio is the same as telling 12 out of 15 million Jews they aren’t to allowed to enjoy your writing. It is your art and your blog. That is your right. I just wanted to make you aware of the weight of what your words truly mean: You are actively discriminating against Jews—not just ‘people who support Israel’. My hope is that this message is received in good faith and not as an attack. I hope to enjoy the Sanji fic fully without violating either of our boundaries. If I find myself block then I have my answer. Thank you
oh BROTHER. this blog is purely for entertainment and creativity and i seriously don't feel like addressing this nor will i be engaging with it after this. for my rant, see below! sorry to everyone whose dashboard this comes across. as you can see from the egregious length of my response, this struck a nerve.
i appreciate the tone of your message and it seems like you genuinely meant it with patience and kindness. my response is not meant with either. my blog is a safe space for jewish people. however, as far as zionism is concerned, i unequivocally cannot tolerate this ideology. furthermore, i see your equation of judaism with zionism as one that is dangerous, lazy, and singularizing; you should take great caution in aiding the “devolution of Judaism from a set of religious beliefs into a national political ideology” (from judith butler’s “Is Judaism Zionism?”). i see nothing appealing about a national political ideology of settler colonialism, alt-right nationalism, and apartheid.
let's just establish some terra firma from which to work with here—israel is a state, judaism is a religion, and zionism is an ideology. the ideology of zionism is the ideology of israel as a state (since its inception and certainly now, with the likud at the helm). by conflating zionism with judaism, you're singularizing millions and millions of people into one set of beliefs. you're doing a disservice to your religion, and this homogenizing is dangerous and toxic. there are many jewish people who agree with me and who recognize the Zionist ideology for what it is; for two key examples see the organization jewish voice for peace as well as many hasidic people who have spoken against the netanyahu administration (yes, even in Israel).
also, rhetoric 101 - your statistic, '80% of jews', is an argument from authority, a specific type of logical fallacy. whatever you’re referencing (you haven’t named a source) is, apparently, just out there in the ether. what you mean is that 80% of jews that were surveyed in whatever study you're referencing are zionists. but this statistic is flawed—there is no a way to survey 100% of jews worldwide and such a study has not happened. so no, it is not 12 out of 15 million people who are pro zionism. i have no doubt the poll you’re referencing was conducted on less than one million people based in, gee, probably north america and israel. and that's not to speak on who provided the funding.
again, i assert that any nation that aspires to be an ethno-state, and any nation that instantiates and perpetuates apartheid, is a genocidal state. read the writings of theodor herzl and ben gurion and you will be surprised at how openly and proudly they propound that zionism is a settler colonial project.
in the words of aimé césaire: “What am I driving at? At this idea: that no one colonizes innocently, that no one colonizes with impunity either; that a nation which colonizes, that a civilization which justifies colonization— and therefore force— is already a sick civilization, a civilization which is morally diseased...” (discourse on colonialism). Israel is a morally diseased nation—diseased with a nationalistic, fascist, settler-colonist ideology (sound familiar? i’m looking at you, america!). not only this, but the citizenship parameters from which Israel was founded are pervasively antidemocratic and are bar for bar with south africa’s apartheid policies (Israel has pass laws too, crazy coincidence!). who else to better represent this ideology than Netanyahu and Donald Trump? are they buddy-buddy enough for your liking? perhaps the allies of your ideology should raise some eyebrows on your end.
i've fought for the palestinian cause for years. i lived in the middle east and i speak arabic. i have a degree in intl relations with a geographic focus on MENA and nuclear warfare. i'm not the one to lecture about this. i am, at an academic and professional level, an active researcher of the third reich and totalitarianism. i know the work of hannah arendt like the back of my hand (a jew who was, at the same time, a Zionist and not a Zionist, outcast from her communities for her dissent). 😫 please take your half-baked criticisms of my political stances elsewhere. go read the wretched of the earth by frantz fanon or orientalism by edward said.
as for the sanji fic - i truly don't care whether you read it or not. i can't physically stop you from doing so. if you have a problem just walk away from the computer. if you come back to my inbox, i will block you because i've had enough painfully predictable disagreements with zionists in my life.
now let me direct you to my favorite poems by Refaat Alareer, a palestinian poet and writer who the IDF murdered in December of 2023 (in an airstrike, an indiscriminate act of killing civilians, an internationally recognized war crime):

:أيضا كلمات من محمود درويش
وأقولُ لِنَفْسي: سِيَطْلَعُ من عَتْمتي قمر

idc what anyone says, Thorn being chosen for Sandwing Queen was the best option for the series and for how the characters are
the entire point of the first arc is the DoD defying what the world plans for them, from Clay defying the idea of being a monster, Tsunami the idea of being a spoiled royal who does nothing, Glory the idea of being a lazy rainwing, Starflight the idea of being a supremacist
Sunny choosing someone clearly more qualified than all the other sisters(before you say “Oh she only knew her for a day” keep in mind she knows Burn murders dragons with disabilities and stuffs them and has insatiable bloodlust, Blister is an early stage fascist, and Blaze is incompetent and insensitive) despite them not seemingly being an option is perfect for the series and the character
