I've thought about how to say this or if I should but I figured it might be nice to know you're not yelling into a void. I used to be your pretty standard left leaning anti-zionist. I used to always insist that Jewish people didn't need Israel to be a thing and "if they all moved to NYC tomorrow nobody would even notice" because I honestly thought that antisemitism was this ancient fossil that only edgy middle school boys and 4-channers throw around and if the US became home to all the world's jews they could be safe without the need for any further violence. Which was so horrifyingly naive (especially considering I myself was labeled as jewish by classmates for sobbing during documentary about the holocaust and having physical features they thought where jewish) that if I didn't have some pollyanna 'surely everyone is trying their best to be nice' instances in the past I would have thought I had a stroke or something. The antisemitism that I've seen in people I thought where otherwise good and kind individuals post the events of October has shaken the absolute hell out of me. It makes me feel sick to think they where just laying in wait for an excuse to be more public with their hate. I know now that Jewish people don't just need Israel, they deserve to have a place where they can know for sure they'll be safe and that absolute ghouls aren't going to jump out of no-where. Thank you for being so open about what you experience.
the past is the past. you see it now and you were brave enough to reach out, good for you. always happy to hear that non-jews are seeing the absolute bat shit bigotry against jews too.
speak up about it. antisemites keep gaslighting jews by saying we're making antisemitism up. you can make a huge difference just by pointing out things that are antisemitic to people around you irl. on the internet any neo nazi can pretend to be "just supporting" Palestine by sharing blood libel. pictures, flyers and slogans from the anti israel protests are pretty clearly antisemitic not just obviously genocidal about Israelis (jews, and any type of arab living there.) challenge your friends you know want to end bigotry to look for it.
you can start by looking at news paper head lines that are written to unfairly paint Israelis and jews as aggressors and liars compared with literal terrorist groups (especially the houthis and hezbollah who are literally slave traders, like actually kidnapping woman (including muslims and christians et all) and selling them into sex slavery.)

state of deltarune theories is so so bad cuz they all try to connect back to the theme of escapism without noticing that that theme isn't even in deltarune.
#the personification of noelle's overbearing mother follows her around throughout the cyber world.#and she spends the entire game scared and confused and alone. until the very end where she's forced to stand up to that figure that scares#-so much. not because she went through any eye opening adventure where she learned to be more brave-#-but because her friends were literally about to die.#she didn't grow at her own pace. she was forced to speak up at the last moment.#kris gets a weird effigy of their brother forced on them as a romantic interest without their say in the matter-#-because they literally cannot speak their mind.#and gosh. the most defying example. berdly.#he spends the entire game trying to build an actual escapist fantasyland. with all his shtick about making a 'smartopia'.#but it never works out.#berdly keeps trying to live that escapist fantasy. a fantasy where he's the hero and gets the girl at the end (the girl being susie)#but he never gets that.#absolutely nothing in the game points at it being about escapism in any shape or form.#hell. I'd say dark worlds don't even reflect what the lightners want in any way.#kris doesn't get friends because of the dark worlds. but because of *us*.#we. the player. is the the one making the right choices for kris.#deltarune is much more interested in exploring what it means to be stuck in a narrative-#-that forces per assigned roles on characters that don't want those roles than it is ever about escapism.#like. did everyone miss the huge player shaped elephant in the room or what.#✏️

if the immediate response to conflict in a friendship is to block instead of talk then you really need to reevaluate what friendship is to you because that's not a healthy attitude and it's not fair to people who trusted you with their friendship.
#you’ve got to be brave and speak up#in fact it says so much about a person who does bc then if things go south the person will have made an effort#and cared enough to which is highly commendable and mature#I’m tired of seeing this trend of throwaway friendships#and letting your emotions steer your logic and not giving people a chance to work things out#so tired it makes me not bother with new ppl#rebloggable

making a source blog entirely to exclude bucktommy in retaliation to a neutral source blog that just happens to be run by bucktommy shippers. okay. that's not embarrassing at all.
#eef speaks#911 discourse#sorry i'm so brave about not discoursing#but my friends worked really hard to make their entirely neutral source blog#only for a new one to pop up and say we'll do everything except tommy

I headcanon that all the Brave Police(minus Deckerd) think Yuuta's parents are dead because. Well. Come on. None of them bring it up because would you want to ask the details of a kid's dead parents??? I don't think so. They all avoid the topic of course, out of consideration, until one day Yuuta excitedly announces that his parents are coming back to Japan for a couple of days and one of them goes THEYRE NOT DEAD?!?!??
#and Yuutas like ???? OF COURSE THEYRE NOT ? WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT???#one of em speaks up maybe power joe and hes like well.. its just you kurumi and azuki in the house#i figured something terrible happened so i didnt- none of us wanted to ask#yuutas like c'mon i know theyre out at work most of the time but theyre not dead! sheesh#“whens the last time they were over” “oh its been six months!” MIGHT AS WELL BE DEAD JESUS CHRIST#brave police j decker#sorry one tag cause i think its funny gdjd

"mental health matters" until it's lando, apparently. y'all have this idealized version of a driver that doesn't feel pressured or nervous or whatever, and that just doesn't happen!! lando is a real person, he has feelings, fears, he feels pressured, stressed, sad. it's not because he's rich that his struggles are less than, ffs.
anyways, lando is an inspiration and a source of representation for me, because i have mental health issues and it's so important for me to see a person i appreciate using their media presence to speak up about it.
no one could ever make me hate you, lando.
#formula 1#f1#lando norris#lando#f1 2024#ln4#l4ndo#mental health matters#anyways!! i love this man so much#and i think he's super brave to speak up on it#specially because of how negatively people react to it

Kissing this handsome gentleman on the cheek as thank you for walking me home in the rain 🥰☔
THANK YOU @gomooink for bringing this WolfLeigh idea to life!! You always draw my darlings with such care 💚❤️
A lil more more on Wolfram's and Leigh's story under the cut for those who are interested~
With the help of others, Wolfram and Sieglinde escape Wolfsschlucht and the Werewolves’ Forest, embarking on a journey to London, where they would explore the outside world together in the years to follow. While his lady conducts her research, both at her London residence and the university, Wolfram busies himself with landscaping, maintenance, and running errands. He lives a quiet life now, safe for the times he becomes lost in the city; asking locals for directions continues to be mildly intimidating.
Wolfram meets Leigh on the streets of London during one such instance, having gotten confused by his map on his way to deliver forgotten lecture materials to Sieglinde. Recognizing his frustrated mumblings in South Franconian, Leigh offers to walk with him the rest of the way as they are also en route to the university. The pair would next meet in said university’s library as they both reach for the same German—English comprehensive dictionary one afternoon, which Wolfram graciously yields to the other. Luck would bring them together once more beneath the safety of Wolfram's umbrella; for his kindness, Wolfram receives a kiss to the cheek after walking Leigh home in the rain, as well as a promise of love letters to come.
#wolfram gelzer#kuroshitsuji#wolfleigh#queer kuro au#if u would like to learn more about the hijinks they get up to feel free to visit the wolfleigh + queer kuro au tags on my blog!!!!!!!!#IM STILL SOOOOOOO GIGGLY ABOUT THIS. tug that tall man down so he is on your level!!!!!!!!!!#it was not intentional but i kinda love how they both ended up with double breasted buttons hehehehe#HIS LIL BLUSH.............HIS LIL FANG PEAKING OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!#love flustering this big tall gentle giant <3 <3 <3#self shipping#also yes i just picked a dialect for him it is not canon o7 headcanon that he speaks whatever you like!#being brave and putting this in the main tag aaaaaaa please be kind <3 i just wanna love this precious man!

ok edgelord
no games au or something
#i often think about how their relationship outside of the games would have been like#team thanos always makes me think of a middle school friend group that survived for too long#everyone is very different compared to how they were then but they cant help but still be magnetized towards each other#theyre mean but they love each other#this is loosely based off of roh jae-won's interview about nam-gyu's character#he wants to be loved and recognized but i dont think hed be very loving of himself#people seek what they cant provide for themselves#this was originally going to be more namsu focused#but it turned from a joke about being incapable of accepting affection into a different vulnerability#less funny than my original intentions but it's ok#i think min-su would be brave enough to speak like this in circumstances other than the games#like with friends he's known for a long time#he's trying to understand#but i still think theyd have a lot of tension between the two of them#which makes them a very interesting dynamic no matter what situation or set of circumstances you put them in#i need to draw more namsu. and the two of them in general#meowmeow art#squid game#squid game 2#squid game season 2#squid game s2#nam-gyu#namgyu#player 124#park min-su#park minsu#player 125#squid game fanart#dont look at the hands too long or ill get you#im finishing this post up at 2am

I’m just gonna leave this here.
#bishop mariann edgar budde#The people saying that the Bishop is somehow not Christian are also profoundly misunderstanding the things Jesus taught us#It would have been easy to not say anything. She could have given a standard sermon and nobody would have blinked twice.#Nobody would be declaring their hate for her nobody would be ranting and raving at her.#She wouldn’t be being criticized by dozens of powerful and consistently nasty people#But she chose to do something brave. She chose to implore mercy. She chose to speak for people who didn’t have her platform.#She chose to stand up for her neighbors. She chose not to let politics warp God’s message.#She chose not to ignore suffering for her own comfort. She chose to be brave. She chose to do something Jesus would be proud of.#She chose the Christian thing to do.#insignificant as it may be I can’t stress enough how easily she could have just not said anything. She could have just not acknowledged the#Reality of what the men in front of her were planning to do. Most preachers wouldn’t. But she did.#Small things like that won’t make a sweeping difference. Her words won’t change things politically. We all know that. But she said them.#She said them because that’s what God would want her to do.#It is a reminder and an example: Implore mercy. Be brave. Be kind. Love your neighbor. Follow Jesus and his teachingsu#I don’t know anything else about her but I’m going to remember that. Kudos to her.#I really don’t know how you as a Christian can see someone implore mercy and be offended. I just don’t get it.

I turned to him and looked him in the face. 'I love you,' I said. Much was said about my bravery, years later, but the fact of the matter is that those things were only reactions, things I did because I had little choice in the matter. In all my life, nothing has been braver than this.
