#my heart goes out to the victim

[seungkwanschicken]

8 hours later I'm still in shock. Can't imagine what the victim has been going through for the last 6 years. Praying they get justice.

i have the usual brainrot so here's a bunch of drawings of the brozone bros standing in the void

something something their paint brush hair is just a stage look, they are actually their parents' children

Neil Gaiman, let’s be realistic. A 21-year-old working in the home of a man four decades her senior cannot truly give meaningful consent to any type of sexual encounter, let alone within mere hours of meeting him. Even though you are denying it was not consensual, the fact you have conceded the sexual encounter did happen at all is a full confession. You are, by your own admission, a predator.

This guy...

I'm not gonna follow you around on social media to harass you, Joel, but... man, we really gotta get some stuff outta the way.

"easy narrative"

Jokes on ya, my guy, but Bluey is a million times deeper, more complex and mature than HH & HB.

DESPITE ORIGINALLY BEING A SHOW FOR TODDLERS, BLUEY IS ALSO POPULAR AMONG KIDS, TEENS AND EVEN ADULTS BECAUSE IT IS A SHOW THAT TREATS SERIOUS ISSUES WITH RESPECT AND NO ONE ON THEIR TEAM HAS A R@P3 FETISH AND/OR DEFENDS CHARACTERS LIKE VAL, WHO ARE MEANT TO REPRESENT REAL LIFE ABUSERS

*sobs uncontrollably* Oh the frustration of Fadel wanting something so very simple and easily within reach because Style already knows and in this episode showed that he is choosing him, loves him, wants his happiness and wants to be with him -- with all the weight of what it means to know that Fadel intends to kill someone the next morning.

Style, who offers Fadel the chance to be honest, over and over and over again, never pushing or demanding Fadel's trust, but asking for it repeatedly because he's so desperately looking for the barest hint of a sign that Fadel is on the same page as him.

Style, who is not just asking Fadel to choose Style, but to choose himself and his own happiness for once, and promises to do it with him; who dares to ask for Fadel's bravery because Style can offer his own along with it.

Style, who places his happiness in Fadel's hands, willingly and without reserve or hesitation, because he recognises in this moment that it's already too late to try to protect his compromised heart.

Style, who in the final hurdle, for the first time in the whole series, chooses his head over his heart and fails fails fails; not because he doesn't love Fadel or genuinely want his happiness, but because Fadel's final frontier is trust, and it was the one thing Style could not give him before he lost the opportunity to tell Fadel the full truth himself.

And no matter Style's reasons -- loyalty to Kant or fear of Fadel's rejection -- he is going to have to face the consequences of making this choice.

Because Fadel was ready, oh he was so, so painfully ready to take that risk for Style. He was willing try again for a life away from everything he's known since his parents' death; in spite of the hurts of his past betrayal, in spite of his fear of his mother's reaction -- he was willing to fight. For Style.

But there was no way for either of them to know, truly, where the other one stood.

Because every choice Style makes, he makes with Kant and his baby brother's safety on one shoulder and the possibility that Fadel won't choose him if he knows the truth on the other. And every choice Fadel makes, he makes with the belief that Style isn't ready to shoulder the burden of the life he leads, and that he has to change to make himself worthy of Style's love and trust.

And now it's too late, too late, and neither Style nor Fadel will ever truly know what could have been.

TRIGGER warning for mentions of SA! ⚠️

So apparently in someone’s review of HH, pictures were shown, visuals to “Poison”. I’m not showing them here but, it’s bad. Angel being tied up and Val with a few other demons are grabbing and pulling onto him, hurting him and probably SAing him. It makes Viv’s twitter joke “the visuals that CUM with it”- look even worse. I’m not surprised though, she’s made it obvious she’s into BDSM. And here’s my thing. If you’re into that, that’s okay! I don’t kink shame. However, there’s a difference between being into something and fetishizing it. Viv fetishizes men tied up, wether it’s consensual or not, and she’s been like that for years, even back in her Zoophobia days with Addison and a few other characters. She’s fucked in the head and it sickens me that she can never take abuse seriously, especially sexual and physical abuse. It’s just all hot to her and I hate how she’s the one who has to represent SA survivors’s trauma onto the screen. They all deserve better than this fujoshi bitch.

iskall had started making me uncomfortable when he started forcing the iskall x joel thing. joel has said he only wanted to be shipped with lizzie, and iskall underminded that for a joke. i watched stress and joel, so i saw two sides of iskall, but it still left a bad taste in my mouth. of course, you usually cant tell when someones an abuser, and this isnt me saying that "heh... it was obvious >_<" but just that some stuff he did made me think differently about him.

Swept away just announced they are closing next week but they sold me a whole ass ticket for the end of December 😭🥲🥲🥲

see bc i feel a lot of the so-called “men’s rights” movements could make a better point if they didn’t make feminists the villans

like, yes, obviously men can be raped. yes, men are victims of violence. yes, terrible things can happen to men(duh?) But it being phrased as an anti feminist thing when most of these problems are being caused by men for men is crazy.

especially since feminism mainly aims to take down gender roles, why are these men activists against it ?

i feel so sick. hoping the victims get the justice they deserve

there is nothing "natural" about the fires in LA right now. from 200 acres to 2000 in twenty minutes, on land that has never burnt before, in january.

no matter how much the media says it is, this is not a "natural disaster". this is a direct result of western politician's complicity in genocide and climate terrorism.

i have seen more videos in the last half an hour of this "natural disaster" than i have at all of the scenes in gaza over the christmas period. where medical workers were stripped and led out of the last 'functioning' hospital - a hospital that was subsequently bombed and set on fire. of the car with 5 journalists inside that was set on fire, 5 of countless people that have been burnt alive by israel. time and time again we have seen palestinians be led to a new "safe zone" only to then have bombs dropped on their tents and for them too to be burnt alive. over and over and over again.

and that's not to play the oppression olympics or to downplay the effect that this is having on individual lives, of course not, but it is to point of the irony and hypocrisy in this being framed as "natural" and in everybody (politicians, celebrities, online LA influencers) coming forward to share links.

this is not a "natural" disaster:

in the first 120 days after october 7th, the planet-warming emissions in gaza exceeded that of the ANNUAL emissions of the top 26 climate-vulnerable countries (individually).

the first 60 days of israel's genocidal actions was equivalent to burning at least 150,000 tonnes of coal.

by december 4th 2023, 133,000 tonnes of C02 was emitted just from the us cargo planes transporting military equipment to israel.

on october 11th, white phosphorus was used for the first time in gaza - this has a long-term environmental impact on the environment, human health, and agricultural land.

every 7 minutes, 1 ton of explosives is dropped on gaza.

by march 2024, nearly half of the tree cover and farmland in gaza had been destroyed.

in june 2024, gaza was declared an environmental wasteland that was insufficient to support human life.

it is estimated that the rebuilding of gaza's infrastructure will emit 30 million metric tonnes of greenhouse gases - every 4 minutes, 1 housing unit is bombed by israel.

in the middle east, temperatures are rising on average twice as fast as the rest of the world.

in the first two years of russia's war against ukraine, the emissions produced were greater than the annual emissions generated individually by 175 countries.

by june 2024, russia's attacks had generated a minimum of 175 metic tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (includes C02, nitrous oxide and sulphur hexafluoride) - see here: russia deliberately targetting energy infrastructure, generating about 14 metric tonnes as a result of the methane released.

and this is just a handful of never-ending statistics.

at COP28 there were no outcome documents that mentioned the contribution of military activities on climate change. not one. COP29 did not discuss this either.

the reporting of military emissions to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is optional. most do not do this.

biden has approved another $8b in arms sales to israel.

the LAFD had $17.6m cut from their budget.

there's a saying that goes along the lines of "when you are born into a burning house, you think the rest of the world is on fire so you don't bother calling for help" and i've been thinking about that a lot today. thinking a lot about palestine, the middle east, ukraine, every genocide and war torn country that has been screaming to be saved from their burning homes, and now the same american politicians, celebrities, and online influencers that covered their ears are starting to get flamed too.

there is nothing natural about anything that is going on in the world right now. these are not natural wildfires, this is the result of complicity in genocide. it's literally climate terrorism.

All the women dressing up as handmaids tale characters probably haven’t even read the book or they would understand that the state of America is no where close to the dystopian society described by Atwood. They probably don’t even understand that the book was literally based on Islamic revolution Iran and that Iran today is far more reflective of the handmaids tale society in its treatment of women especially for that reason. It’s deeply insulting to see the oppression of women being used like this as a costume by women in privileged countries while women being oppressed in Islamic countries are literally having their voices taken away by extremists and their existence in public suppressed by Islamic regimes.

[aziraphales-lawyer]

Literally no other way I could describe it right now.

[thechaotichorselord]

If you know, you know. I’m still on break, but I’m just so fucking upset. I’m so fucking lost right now.

In light of shubble’s bravery to come forward and talk about her abuse, I will no longer be supporting him or his band

My heart goes out to Shelby and I hope she can continue to heal from this. I believe that one of the strongest things a person can do is openly talk about their story and she did that <3

I’m so in awe of her strength and bravery as she continues to raise awareness of the signs of abuse so that others can recognise them and take care of themselves
