[silversoulstardust]

if there's anything I learn about recent election in America is that media projection is BS and we'll just have to wait until all the votes are counted

So now i have migraines apparently 😭

[moomeecore]

burnt my hand on burrito and so told my cat who was sitting in chair right in front of where i was standing: "you could have prevented this. if you voted for harris." but then i felt bad so i told him "im sorry i know you cant vote" but he tried to bite my hand so i changed my mind and told him "you should have voted anyway." why am i telling you this? idk but my tummy hurts. and i gained weight (okay, i need more weight) and can't fit into a pants i like (not okay, sad) and can't find any pants that aren't shorts or sweatpants. so basically this could have all been prevented if my cat voted for harris. thanks a lot dude

I really do like character design in mouthwashing

Anya is obvi inspired by Shelley Duval (who was also verbally abused by Cubric, if I recall correctly), the Shining protagonist. Curly is your typical captain America style charismatic leader, he is even canonically a gym bro (although I recall you mentioning that if Curly's pre-crash face wasn't revealed, you would've headcanoned him as black, so I am a bit curios, what his dynamic w/ Jimmy would've been. Like, I think this little piece of sht would be casually racist towards him, he is just that sort of asshole. If the story was set at our times he would've def vote for Trump and complain abt immigrants eating dogs or something equally rediculous lol. Also, his dynamic w/ Anya - being marginalised himself would've he been harder on Jimbo's bullshit? Or would that not matter at all in their particular situation? So many possibilities.)

Daisuke is a bright spot in an otherwise dull and grey space. Swansea is simply perfect, 10/10😁

I don’t think Jimmy would be racist towards Curly or anyone for that matter.

Like I don’t see Jimmy as a misanthrope. He’s not hateful just to be hateful, he’s spiteful. All of his envy and resentment of others comes from his own projection of shared aspects he feels inferior by. I think the biggest difference is it adds a little more ire to Jimmy’s sentiments as it takes away an easy aspect of Curly’s life. I assume Mouthwashing operates in a similar social history and structure as our world so Curly likely faced prejudices based on his race in this scenario. He had something extra outside of his control weighing him down and yet he still reached that highest rung.

For Jimmy it’s infuriating. It feeds that delusion that Curly has it so much easier, that he doesn’t have to do the real work to get to that space. He should’ve struggled more, he should be more bitter but he isn’t. He’s not like him still and he’s pissed about it. He still wouldn’t understand the underlying and systemic issues Curly would’ve faced cause he can’t. He wouldn’t try to because in doing that it’s an admission he’s just not trying like Curly is. Any comments that could be seen as racist are less targeted at Curly’s ethnicity but just at him. Jimmy’s issues are with Curly as a whole, being so idealic compared to him and everything around him. It’s not just one facet of him physically, mentally or emotionally that makes Jimmy so envious. It’s why he’s obsessed, it everything about him.

As for Anya, this is no anger toward you, but there’s this perception in fandom spaces with intersectionality that sharing a minority status creates an equal understanding of what exact struggles the others go through. You can understand the feeling of oppression but certain aspects of certain systems will still be misunderstood if they don’t apply to you. Curly is still a man and Anya a woman. Perhaps she is a woman of color, it think he may have been a bit harsher to Jimmy as he would be aware of the racial factors at play when it comes to the dehumanization and sexism perpetrated towards WOC but he still wouldn’t get it as a man.

It’s like apples and oranges to where they are both fruit but being categorically the same doesn’t make them identical. I can not describe to you the taste of an apple by using an orange. Anya would no more understand Curly’s struggles being black than he would her being the only woman on board. Of course they share the similarity of being the only one but even in this case we do work off the assumption everybody but Daisuke is white. He’d inherently have more solidarity with him on that aspect than her.

okay so we all love Greta Thunberg, and so do biologists & zoologists and such, so bc of that several animals have been named after her :)

1. Nelloptodes gretae, a little beetle that got me started in all of this, its less than 1 millimetre large i think, and its antennae look kinda like braids :) they eat fungal hyphae (part of fungi idk) & spores

2. Craspedotropis gretathunbergae, a snail that is also very very small (2 millimetres long & 1 millimetre wide) its (probably) very sensitive to climate change :(

3. Pristimantis gretathunbergae, a frog, also little but in the centimetres this time :) females can even reach 4,6 cm!! it stays in small pools of water in plants (in between leaves i think?) (only on bromeliads, the family that contains pineapples) during the day & i dont know what it eats but it does that at night

4. Thunberga, a genus of spiders that currently contains 9 species :) one of which is called Thunberga greta

there might be more, but these are the ones i know of :))

Ash deleted his post in like .2 seconds but I don't think it's that funny to joke about your friend supporting Trump or whatever especially considering a lot of people's mindset around the election. Idk

[driftwooddestiel]

ngl im getting so annoyed by all the dramatic posts by americans that are like “stop talking to people about anything. start preparing supplies. plan your escape. build a bunker. this is the end but we can do this guys ❤️” can you stop doomsdaying there are people living under worse governments and still living their lives and not giving up hope

According to the television, the number one source of Donald Dump's information, there really have been an auspicious number of transgender aliens over the years.

i hate that people seem to value my potential worth with a bachelor's degree ("you'll make more money!" as if my degree program isn't one of the least useful degrees if you're not going into med school) over my mental health. as if monthly OCD-induced and autistic meltdowns aren't bad enough.

it's not like i'm a semester or two away from graduating. i have a couple YEARS left. i'm still technically in my third year in my degree. i can only manage 3 courses at the very most and any more causes me to burn out and my executive dysfunction plummets

[aizenat]

Anyway, glad our government got something right and is working to ban tik tok.

[vamptastic]

i think my constant seething rage is honestly very reasonable. i literally live in florida.

[snekdood]

random and unnecessary bloodshed towards minorities is good when its my side advocating for it

[powerfulkicks]

idk i'm really tired of people being angry and bitter all the time. like it gets exhausting to constantly be yelled at and guilt-tripped and to see passive aggressive posts passed around, even when the posts aren't directly addressed to me.

at a certain point it's like is this behavior actually helping anything or do you just like the feeling of righteous anger?

Important life lesson I've learned recently: Never fall in love with an anarchist.

In the midst of all this frustration, anger, grief, chaos and america burning in front of their eyes, it's always nice to remember that Asmongold and his audience remain just as rotten, racist, misogynistic and bigoted as they did prior to his ""apology"". The room clean unfortunately didn't clean out those ugly parts. Go figure.

"Election meltdown" and it's about a man with multiple sexual assault allegations, a history of being inappropriate about his daughter and children in general, planning on banning abortion no matter the circumstance, and infamously friends with an underage girls sex trafficker who he used to fly on his Lolita Express on its way to Pedophile Island with getting voted into power.

"Election meltdown" and it's about the man who has a history of being a racist piece of shit, who has spread misinformation about migrants taking "black people jobs", used the word "Palestinian" (the people they are currently genociding as we speak btw) as an insult, said Israel should "finish the job", questioned Kamala Harris' ethnic identity and saying that she "turned Black" (?????), and when very politely confronted about his past racist behaviour and questioned on why black people should vote for him by a black woman started off by saying "he's never been asked a question in such a horrible manner" and controls her language anyway this year alone getting voted into power.

"Election meltdown" and it's the extremely homo- and transphobic man who has set out to go through with Project 25, has made repeated shows of wanting trans healthcare banned and forcing a return to the "traditional family structure" at the expense of everyone that is queer or nonconforming to that lifestyle getting voted into power.

"Election meltdown" and it's a convicted felon found guilty on 34 charges getting voted into power.

"Election meltdown" and it's women, queer people, people of colour, disabled people-- all people who are already marginalized, deal with enough discrimination and hardship and callousness and hate crimes and worry already-- having their rights and lives threatened even more. I'm going to chop your dick off.

[administer-distractions]

also you can't respond to my MEME with 'um actually [paragraph]. but I don't want to argue :)
