Always an experience watching the leftism leave FNAF fans when someone mentions that Scott Cawthon financially backed fascist politicians.
The switch from posting hardline leftist tweets about boycotts and signal boosts and critical takedowns of politicians and celebrities to ‘ohhh, well. everyone makes mistakes. who can blame him, listen he. he donated money to gay charities too. that makes it ok! a millionaire in his forties is allowed to have political beliefs. does it even matter? just let it go!’ is whiplash inducing. The antivaxxer celebrities have got to go, but this one horror dev who quietly handed wads of cash to antivax lawmakers? He’s chill, he can stay.
The charity thing is so funny too because suddenly utilitarian positive-negative point counting is the way to go. Maybe an abacus would help calculate the net good of donating to the Trevor Project minus donating thousands of dollars to Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump. -10 points if I push a kid in a lake but +11 points if I help an old lady across the street, so I’m chill. You can’t judge me. Hey, maybe. Just don’t push a kid in the lake period. How fucking low is the bar when we’re excusing maxing out the possible dollar amount of donations to Mitch fucking McConnell. That should be like. Default you’re a bad person.
#delete later#personal#not art#rant#you can still be a fan of fnaf 100% but god you’re not obligated to defend its creator#don’t pretend like Scott is cool#“’Scott likes gay people he only voted for trump for his fiscal and defense policies in defendi america from terrorists!’#kid. that’s not good either.#fiscal conservatism kills people too.#the whole thing exposes how weak some leftists are to the image of the ‘well-mannered right wing republican.’ the type who would#respectfully disagree with your right to exist with a kind top of the hat#‘as long as you silently hate me and force a nice smile while shaking my hand it’s ok’#this is why jk Rowling is hated while Scott gets a free pass. just have to hide your hate well enough and liberals will excuse you ig

Notice how I ship UsUk while respecting other shipping preferences, very demure, very mindful. I don’t go harassing people over which fictional characters kissy-kissy who. I don’t go accusing people of ludicrous, wild ideas because of a certain ship. I’m very mindful in the Hetalia community. See how I act mature? The way I respect my shipping community is how I respect the overall community. Those that decide to willingly insult others over fictional characters—*disappointed head shake* not demure.
#It’s a joke don’t come at me#tiktok trend#though if you do you’re only adding weight to the issue#it’s 16 years of the fandom let’s not hate on people over what they like#hetalia#ukus#usukus#usuk#very demure very mindful#aph#hws#hws england#aph england#hws america#aph america#arthur kirkland#alfred f jones

i get such a sense of primal envy when looking at edwin’s clothes up close because god you can just tell his coat is real wool and made to last and not cheap flimsy mass produced garbage and auggagghhhh that was just STANDARD in his time. by no means am i saying i was #borninthewronggeneration because i like having vaccines and household appliances but. man. to have a personally-tailored coat like that that’d last for years and years……. and fabrics of fine thread-dense quality………. if only
#edwin would be so disgusted by shein products can you fucking imagine#i mean he’d be disgusted by most mass produced brand/off-brand clothing but fast fashion shit like that would be the Worst#thank god for the fact that I don’t think anyone in the group would wear that kinda shit. for wildly different reasons#crystal wouldn’t because why the fuck would she. she can afford the most expensive high quality shit on the market. and even if she goes#thrifting you can just tell if something looks/feels like cheap garbage she’d not even touch it#niko’s a fashion icon and constantly changing her outfits BUT she seems like the type who loves repurposing old clothing/re-arranging things#in her wardrobe and making different combinations rather than buying new clothes all the time and wasting perfectly good clothing#plus she wasn’t raised in America and likely did not get normalized to fast fashion#charles doesn’t because. well#you know.#ghost. and whatnot#even so I doubt his parents bought him clothes that often so he’d have to either save up the money to buy stuff he wants (probably thrifted)#or repurpose old clothes in various ways. his coat absolutely looks high quality and I bet he saved up like crazy for it#rambling#edwin#dead boy detectives#edwin payne

Insane to me that people, including other film makers, are so ready to throw down against Scorsese. If the trolley problem was the entirety of marvels output on one track and one more Scorsese film on the other, I’d ram that bitch through the mcu so hard it would obliterate every trace of iron man from time and space. God bless ‘em but I would 💖
#I say this as a one time marvel enjoyer.#ten words from grandpa mean more to me than anything captain America has ever said so we are clear#you may not choose this option and that’s fine but I’m going full throttle you should know that about me#and if I see one more comparison of some marvel quadrilogy spin off poster you need three tv shows and five movies to understand who is even#ON IT held up against Wolf of Wall Street like it proves something I’m gonna commit#and I don’t even LIKE wolf of wall street that fucking much#he is one of our foremost creatives and he is talking about how the catch of humanity is you are given more creative drive and ambition and#KNOWLEDGE than time and how heavy his OWN DEATH looms and we’re doing THIS

do usamerican leftists think that if they don’t vote the government will spontaneously collapse to make way for their socialist utopia
#y’all gotta stop pissing me off#i’m a leftist too but things do not go our way very often#i empathize with your plight. i do not enjoy seeing democratic policy either#but i do not enjoy fascism even more#y’all are acting like the average american needs to be punished for the honor of palestinians#when both the average american AND palestinian would be harmed by a second trump presidency#fucking. whatever man. if you want your life to be worse go for it but#i regrettably live here and i don’t want that for me :)#and even when i move back to europe if america gets fucked up so will EVERY OTHER COUNTRY#so. yknow.#us politics#kamala harris#donald trump#2024 elections

Fourth of July is so funny cuz it’s the one time every year that people decades past their hetalia phase will wake up in a cold sweat and go “there’s only one character I can draw for this day… 👁️👁️💦”
#the haunting sounds of the American theme sneaking up on them the closer it gets to the fourth#like the jaws theme but it’s an eagle screech#eagles don’t even screech the usa’s a sham#this is a very usa centric post#I dunno maybe people in other countries wake up in a cold sweat on their foundation days and go#no… it’s time 👁️👁️💦#shoutout to all my American Hetalia fans waking up today and remembering that they’re hetalia fans#we will get through this together#I hope I get to glimpse fireworks this year#dude last year was such a bummer#I wanted to do sparklers in the backyard but no one wanted to join me so it was just me doing em myself while my family kept trying to#convince me to come back inside :(((#then my dad went hey this year we should get fireworks#NO#no one can have fun cuz you guys were mean to me last year >:(#slash j btw it’s not a big deal I’m just salty lol#when you’re the only one full of whimsy in your family 😔#happy birthday America#get your shit together#❤️🤍💙#hetalia#aph america#hws america#alfred f jones

isat’s “what should we do with dead bodies” conversation is so so catastrophic to me- and a little horrifying. there’s a range of knowing how you want to die, with Mirabelle knowing the exact religious way she would prefer to be honored, Odile giving her options & preferences that mainly align with Ka Bue’s ideals, and Isabeau not having much thought beyond the general way Vaugaurde does it. They all have thought about it, and know their options well enough that they have some sort of favor or acceptance of the way their body is handled.
And then there is Siffrin, who doesn’t have this luxury at all in multiple senses. They don’t get to know their options beyond the ones from cultures that aren’t their own, the closest we get to see being “throw my ashes into the sky” which, while definitely symbolic & feels fitting for the country’s connection to the sky above, isn’t solid enough to be coined as what the Country actually does (and still, siffrin wouldn’t personally know that death is handled that way back home). He doesn’t get to die, either, and ever be mourned for. They never see how the party responds to their death in the loops, and seeing as they assumed they would just go back to traveling alone like before at the end of the journey, possibly thought they would die alone or silently, completely unaware they would be missed.
post game as well, we never learn how people from the island honor their dead? the king never says anything about it, and it’s likely siffrin will never learn. the only difference is that, now, siffrin knows they will be missed, however they’re disposed of.
#I know this is like.. surface level observation. stating the obvious and whatnot#but it also is kinda terrifying to me?#being buried is scary- but it America it’s the default method many families use for their loved ones#the very last thing someone ever does to you being out of your hands is scary!#especially in this context where it’s cultural differences.#the country doesn’t seem to Have a method for disposing of bodies.#(that we know for certain!)#and this doesn’t really stop for siffrin either#lmk if I got anything wrong or overlooked something!#I don’t have the dialouge up while writing this… teehee.#isat#in stars and time#isat spoilers#in stars and time spoilers#my thought process died a little by the end. sigh.

It’s so frustrating how much of Piper fanart looks like it could be here
#piper mclean#hoo#for those who don’t know#this is the Americans hall in the National Museum of the American Indian#which is a Smithsonian#this exhibit is about how indigenous peoples of America have been commodified sexualized and othered for marketing purposes#and sometimes the Piper fanart i see plays RIGHT into the charicatures I see in this hall#literally just do like.#a modicum of research into Cherokee people before you draw her#I’m begging

Pecan…. that’s a really weird word you know#like try saying it out loud a couple times. Pecan.. peCHAAANs. Pea-can. hm. hm.#anyway)#but this guy had some other really random junk lying around so I decided to take a look and I actually found something really msyerious!#there was this book with a big ‘2’ on it and I couldn’t find the other ones so I was like hey where’s the rest of these and he was like#we already sold them off and I was like WHAT that’s so crazy#like if you’re gonna sell a set of books#WHY would you sell each one separately cuz that would really suck to just like#start in the middle of a series or get hooked and never be able to continue it#and I was pretty wary anyways cuz it looked so CRYPTIC and WEIRD#but he said he’d give it to me for 92 cents and baby that’s a STEAL#couldn’t NOT take it#I mean it sat around on my desk for months and I mainly just used it as a paperweight until one night#they stopped broadcasting America’s Got Talent on my channel and out of SPITE I decided to find a way to defy American Tradition#and read a book#….what? ohhhh you though I was gonna build an inator over this#no at the time I was already working on a Tuesday Inator that would force every Calendar in the Tri-State area to always have every day#as Tuesday so I could ALWAYS have a discount on tacos! do you know how OVERPRICED those things are when they’re not on Tuesday?

dudes will say “it’s spooky how much what’s happening today mirrors the fall of rome” and the narrative they know of “the fall of rome” was invented by edward gibbon as a functional metaphor for his (a conservative upper-class englishman’s) fears about democracy and modernization
#like 1. america isn’t capable of ‘going the way of rome’ the social forces/structures at play in the 450s simply do not exist today#and 2. doesn’t it weird you out how neat everything in that narrative happens to be? don’t you feel the oily patina of the 18th century?#ryddles

Steve and modern day fashion
#this is like 3 tumblr posts worth of inspiration#1 Steve would like metal YES#2 his hair would grow out and be kinda wavy#3 his little star shoes#I generally don’t think he’d like wearing star or America theme clothes bc he isn’t rlly a patriotic guy#and captain America was a symbol that was forced onto him you know?#but I think he’d think the shoes are cute cause it’s like subtle#I don’t think he’d buy them for himself tho prolly a present#I picked rage against the machine specifically bc it’s like fuck the government music I THINK DONT SHADE ME#take note of the ring engravings tehe#steve rogers#mcu#stucky#my art

Funny thing I realised earlier: the UK elections this year happened on America’s fireworks day (independence day) and the US elections this year are happening on Britain’s fireworks day (Guy Fawkes day)
#basically on the 4th of July the UK was like “have you voted???” while America was like 🎆 🎆 🎆#and on the 5th of November America’s like “have you voted???” while the UK is like 🎆 🎆 🎆#do I like the phrasing of those two tags? No. Will I cringe when I discover this post later? Most likely yeah#in all seriousness if you’re in America vote. Preferably against becoming a facist dictatorship for the foreseeable future#(why does my autocorrect not believe in the word facist?)#this is the only political post you’re getting from me about this election because there is no reason it should concern me#bc I don’t live in America I’ve never been to America and I have no intention of ever going there#unfortunately I love surfing the internet while also keeping these complicated things called rights#us politics#guy fawkes night#strangely I haven’t actually heard that many fireworks today#i think the neighbours have just been doing it every day since Halloween (including Halloween)#oh hang on they’ve just started (I was wondering where they were)
