When maga loses

[infamouslydorky]

Fucks me up jobs expect workers to show up despite wild circumstances. I remember at a former job having to traverse sub zero temperatures just to walk to my job because they refused to close the building. I remember having to work front line in covid as an immune compromised individual with no vaccine produced yet and when concerns were expressed, my superiors responded with "when workers get infected, these parts of the building will be closed". God forbid you lose a family member. You're expected to show up anyway.

Today my boss told me to contact an office to confirm if a doctor has his papers in order. I say: they won't pick up, and he asks why, to which I responded: THEY WERE IN DIRECT LINE OF MILTON, YOU KNOW, THE DEVISTATING HURRICANE PART 2?? WHY WOULD THEY PICK UP???

Maybe, if you're with a group of friends who'll never be together again, all your lights will shine at the same time and you'll know, and then you can hold each other and whisper, "This was so good. Oh my God, this was so good."

Women have so many hurtful words and slurs associated with them (i.e. whore, slut, bitch, etc) and I hate them with a passion and I abhor the weight they hold. It's beyond overdue for some words to be created and popularized to use for men.

Ones that come to mind are:

Had to unfollow another mutual who was putting voter suppression propaganda on my god damn dash again.

If you buy into this both-sides bullshit, please just take a minute, take breath, and do this thought experiment with me.

What do the people who keep telling you voting makes you complicit actually want you to do?

Are they recommending any kind of organized political action at all?

Or are they just telling you not to vote? Because what they want is for you to NOT VOTE.

They would very much like for you to sit on your hands and do Literally Nothing.

Just sit back and accept whatever happens. And if that means Trump becomes president and fires half the government to replace them with his unqualified supporters likes he's said he would,

and he throws out all environmental policy for oil company bribes like he has said he would,

if he actively encourages the extermination of the Palestinian people as he has SAID HE WOULD,

well then that'll sure teach those idiot democrats a lesson! Not like they've ever lost an election before!! NOT LIKE THEY'VE EVER LOST AN ELECTION TO TRUMP BEFORE!!

Refusing to vote does not send a message. It does not teach Joe Biden shit. The ONLY thing is does, is gives you an excuse to give into apathy and not take even the SMALLEST possible political action to prevent REAL AND DEADLY HARM from befalling your community, your friends and family, your entire goddamn country.

You look me in the eye and tell me you don't have one single disabled friend who's shaking in terror at the prospect of what Trump will do to the health insurance industry, to medicare, to drug prices.

You look at my face and tell me you don't know even one gay or interracial couple facing the nightmare of having their marriage annulled when Trump rolls back Obergefell and Loving.

Jesus Christ folks the supreme court is LITERALLY discussing removing protections for fucking interracial marriage like we're living in the god damn 50's again!! You really think this is the time to be fucking around??? You want to wait until he's ready to actively strip non-white people's right to vote??

FUCKING VOTE. IT IS LITERALLY THE LEAST YOU CAN DO.

If I had a nickel every time I was watching a stream when an insane event happened in America, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

What is revelation's endgame here? I understand he is creating a cult and probably looking for vengeance but does he have enough people to defeat even a single somewhat big wyrm? Or IS he doing something else entirely with those ppl?

At the moment it's just going on a revenge march to some of its old colleagues (the wyrms who swore in court that ending the world was all rev's idea) to pick a fight. The issue is that it's population density that draws crawling beasts, so wyrms rely on their towns and congregations to act as bait in their metaphorical spiderwebs. A big battle between cultists and villagers would harm both wyrms, while drawing massive floods of crawling beasts so instead it's going to fight the wyrms directly. They are usually protected by their townsfolk but hey, there's a shiny new cult in town with their golden calf. If you have no qualms about using magic you can easily bind more people to your bidding. And then everyone can just go, march away.... leaving an injured wyrm dead or starving

I don't think there's a coldly defined endgame, I think it's a series of "we'll cross that bridge when we get there"s and choices made in passion. Revelation never thought it would leave its own tomb, let alone recover enough to go anywhere. So the first time it took a fight to a wyrm was an impulse, but it worked, so it happened again and again. The marching procession across the land began to grow into an army. I think the endgame is just "make them pay"

"It's a sad song, but we sing it anyway" Underrated Musical Theatre Tearjerkers Part 1

Welcome back to Memoirs of a Theatre Kid! Anyone who knows me know I am an easy crier, especially when musical theatre is involved. And lets be real, sometimes you just need a good cry because it actually does release endorphins. Crazy stuff, right? There are a lot of musicals and songs within that are notorious for making people tear up. Pretty much the entire score Les Miserables is coming…
