"If voting changed anything they wouldn't let people do it-" grabs your face THEY DIDN'T JUST "LET" PEOPLE DO IT, MOST PEOPLE COULDN'T VOTE FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS. PEOPLE OF COLOR ONLY GOT THE FULL RIGHT TO VOTE 50 YEARS AGO IN THE US, THATS BARELY A GENERATION.
IF IT DIDNT MATTER AT ALL WHY WOULD THEY SPEND SO MUCH TIME GERRYMANDERING THE SHIT OUT OF EVERYWHERE?? WHY CAN'T FELONS VOTE?? WHY CANT PUERTO RICO VOTE? WHY DO THEY KEEP SWITCHING DATES AND LAWS AND TIMES AND WHATEVER THEY POSSIBLY CAN TO STOP PEOPLE FROM VOTING?? WHY DO THEY MAKE EFFORT AT ALL??
BEING DISILLUSIONED IS A REASONABLE RESPONSE. BUT PEOPLE FOUGHT AND DIED AND ARE STILL FUCKING DYING FOR THAT RIGHT, DONT SPIT IN THEIR FACE.
#god i hate seeing that fucking pop up#YES the system is fucked YES we need revolution or reform to the point of it being unrecognizable#but we dont HAVE THAT right now#but DONT COME IN AND TAKE WHAT WE DO HAVE FOR GRANTED IT WAS WRITTEN IN BLOOD#IM SO SICK OF THIS LIKE GUYS...WHY WOULD THEY MAKE THIS MUCH EFFORT...WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENED POST CIVIL WAR??#voting#elections

Shout out to the Holy Roman Empire for the funniest assembly name ever, Charles V for convening it and Martin Luther for refusing to recant his writings, causing the name of it to feature several times in my textbook.

vague-posting about this here cuz i don't feel comfortable yapping about my su takes on twitter, but after everything that's happened the most interesting thing about the su fandom to me is that so many are 100% there for applying the "everyone can change and deserves a second chance" message to everyone, even the diamonds. except for one ☝️ she doesn't count. cuz she's dead.
#personal#very extremely delete later#ok cutting the vague post this is about a “whose the worst cartoon mom” twt post with pink diamond in the running#and a bunch of people pointing at her. the woman who died in childbirth and never got to meet her child. and she's literally next to#mother gothel. the baby kidnapper who kidnapped a baby#i'm always gonna be a pink diamond nuancepilled defender. she was a shitty entitled teen who grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth#then got self-radicalized and rebelled for both selfish AND selfless reasons#“this show is great because everyone makes mistakes and learns from them. except the pink one. she's bad and dead forever.”#anyways this is a crit towards the fandom not the show#“she had steven so she could selfishly escape her mistakes and put all her burdens on her child” or she wanted a child#“she abandoned her family” or she died during childbirth#“she started a war that got thousands of gems killed and mutilated” and if she hadn't nobody on earth would exist#the fact that some fans are more willing to jump to white diamond’s defense when talking about her reformation and redemption#white diamond—the architect and supreme ruler of a 10000+ year old fascist empire—has 10000% done worse more unforgivable things than pink#guys even blue diamond has shattered gems before. like not just kill them but permanently split their souls into pieces.#ruby called her a “SHATTERER.” she was INFAMOUS for murdering people. pink never shattered anyone#for fans of a show that explicitly says nobody's truly a villain you guys sure do want a villain really badly#anyways “we need more compelx female characters y'all couldn't even handle rose quartz” etc. etc. etc.

btw I know there's probably already propaganda out there about this, but I wanna say my 2 cents on Tim Walz and the George Floyd protests.
He really listened to the protesters and gave them time and space to exercise their rights.
When not only riots were breaking out, but also non-local fascist extremists showing up looking to add fuel to the proverbial fire, THAT'S when the National Guard was there to stop the bullshit.
I've seen people on the right criticise him for not sending in the national guard immediately (i.e. against local protesters). Now there will be psyop propaganda against him, targeting us too.
Oh, and he also pushed for police reform as well, so this isn't just grandstanding either. As a local, I think he's handled it perfectly.
and here's an article I found if you don't want to take my word for it:
#tim walz#us politics#politics#kamala harris#police reform#george floyd#Minnesota#Minneapolis#criminal justice#i hope this post doesn't explode too much because I generally don't like talking about politics#but I fucking love Tim Walz#v excited about this#I will defend him so hard#he's a good guy you know#he's strong and reasonable and no nonsense

I always feel like the worst kind of character redemptions (other than redemptions where a character immediately redeems themselves after one conversation) are ones where the villain is betrayed and so they switch sides, and it's treated like they've become a better person.
#txt#it was one of my biggest pet peeves with how catra's redemption was handled (As well as everyone being her bff lol)#kid cosmic did this too but chuck was funny so i was fine with it#i think rise of the tmnt handled this concept the best. draxum was betrayed but it didn't mean he's a good guy now#he was a wanted criminal who only accepted help from mikey because he needed a place to hide#and then they slowly bonded and he gradually reforms himself#i love shit like that

It's honestly wild to me that ToA went through so much trouble to emphasize the fact that Will did not magically fix all of Nico's problems and was explicitly not Nico's only doctor.
Only for TSATS to have Will fix all of Nico's problems and have Nico be entirely reliant on him the entire book and literally helpless without him and LITERALLY have Nico's problems be magically removed.
#pjo#riordanverse#tsats crit#nico di angelo#solangelo#it doesnt make any sense too cause. in HoO we KNOW Nico was fully capable of handling himself in Tartarus#we already knew he was explicitly on his own. we know he had it worse than Percy and Annabeth did#because we are explicitly told that Nico saw Tartarus' true nature the ENTIRE TIME versus Percy only getting a tiny half-glimpse of it once#and Percy acknowledges that he would not be able to withstand actually seeing Tartarus more than he did without just dying on the spot#and Nico was down there for as long as Percy and Annabeth at least. on his own. flying blind and explicitly having it worse.#so it doesnt make sense to totally retcon Nico's ENTIRE experiences with Tartarus to make him sopping wet and pathetic about it#needing to be helped and only being down there for twenty minutes and crying the whole time#and then all of the book he's literally functionally helpless without Will for some reason. despite being in his element.#could not get more in his element than being in the Underworld. my guy literally lives there. that's his HOUSE. that's his YARD.#and he's still just totally sopping wet and pathetic in Tartarus the second time around#like im sorry. no. we literally have previously established canon indicating this is absolutely not the case#that is not something you can retcon. that is an entire major event. it was not glossed over.#unless you are doing time travel and it's a canonical retcon a la Homestuck im sorry the events of TSATS just could never occur#(not to mention Damasen is just never acknowledged in TSATS and him and Bob were absorbed by Tartarus the god and ergo dead in HoH)#(so Bob and Damasen are like. *Gone* gone. they didn't just die to be reformed later they got ERASED.)#(and Nyx sure as hell isnt gonna be the one to have Bob trapped for whatever reason. definitely not cause she hates light/change/whatever)#(nyx is literally the mother/sister [depends on version - sometimes a mitosis situation] of the personification of day? and sky?)#(and FRIENDSHIP? and the nymphs of sunset? sometimes also CHEERFULNESS? and THOUGHTFULNESS? and old age)#(ah yes the mother of concepts such as love/friendship and aging and. day. would HATE [checks notes] love/friendship changing and light)#(she INVENTED THOSE) < anyways thank u for coming to my aside rant in the tags#in parenthesis to indicate this is an aside/tangent rant. anyways i have so many problems with this plot. it just DOESNT WORK#on NO LEVEL DOES IT WORK AT ALL WITH ESTABLISHED CANON

it's just a little interesting that people love genuinely kind and good hearted characters but somehow batmans unwavering belief that people can be better and people can be changed is not enough? even characters within the same media are praised and respected for being the bigger hero and choosing to save rather than to hurt and yet bruce's no-kill rule is often a point of ridicule for his character.
what is so wrong with having a immensely complicated character have slightly less complicated morals about empathy? for a character who loves and hurts and loses why is this something so unbelievably unrealistic for a hero to believe in. what is outlandish about people being people before they are a product of their misfortunes?
of course it isn't a perfect mindset, it isn't even a healthy one in a lot of cases — but it is something that has stayed true to its mission and so i think it deserves a little more thinking before being dragged around as lazy writing.
#even in fics bruces headstrong desire to give second chances and reform is Not Enough of a reason that he is intrinsically a Good Person#also this is not about the J*ker please use some critical thinking to realise the only reason that guy is still around is because he sells#but other rouges and even smaller criminals he comes into contact with are often given the benefit of the doubt#lots of times he befriends them and internalises their struggles in order to try and save them#but for some reason its silly or outdated or boring or WHATEVER#dc meta#bruce wayne#batman

The reason Flora didn’t recognize Helia wasn’t because of him being transgender but because back when they were kids, Helia was that one kid who ate dirt by the handful and was generally a handful to anyone who took care of him.
Kind of hard to believe that this elegant, well-educated, and cool-headed man was a goblin child that would bite your ankles in his youth.
/j
god this is canon
baby helia out there catching worms for floras garden and showing up absolutely covered in dirt and twigs
i love it too bc under that persona of suave, well traveled, artistic gentleman, helia is so quippy and quirky, so there would be moments where flora is like ahhhh there it is
#like he is so sarcastic to the other guys and pokes fun at them but also just does weird shit sometimes#reformed ankle biter helia is so good#asks#winx#winx club#winx rewrite#winx au#winx redesign#winx helia#winx flora

non canon to casey official lore but what if she did get that son of a bitch
#ik i posted that 1st pic already once but it was meant to be part of this set#casey#michelle carter#ft the ghost of booster hovering around these images#2nd is a sort of redraw of a shot from silence of the lambs lol#im obsessed with my own oc obviously so i think of any and every au possible for her. sometimes i think if she was slightly less of a joke#she would be propelled into owning her identity as a villain to protect herself from goldstars vengeance even though she didnt want to be a#proper villain ever and just wanted to kill one guy and get away with it and go back to work#unwittingly becomes goldstars arch enemy#i can imagine a whole arc with rani wanting to become a hero too to get revenge but michelles like NOOO BOOSTER NEVER WANTED THAT FOR YOU#do as i say not as i do!!!! focus on school!#makes me sad though because her actually offing booster ping pongs off the meeting nell part of her life. aah say lah vee#but then again ladybug is an active hero. mauybe theyll meet after all.#THEY WOULD FIND EACH OTHER IN EVERY UNIVERSE#as for her getting out of jail on an actual manslaughter charge i imagine some other actual supervillain stages a jailbreak and she just#escapes in the confusion and dedicates herself to being a reformed citizen and becoming an actor (somehow?)#but michelle hears she escaped and is like NO! I CANT LET HER GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!!!!

Me when I see ppl saying Makoto is bland and has no personality like my guy do you realize that being kind, selfless, and forgiving are all strong personality traits
#and the way that’s not even all his character is either#chat he saved the remnants of despair give him more credit#he’s a better person than me bc if I was him and I was sent to my death by my friends for something I didn’t even do I’d be LIVID#he committed treason for the mere chance to reform literal TERRORISTS and succeeded like good for him#patience of a saint ong#he was ready to punt monokuma into orbit and his internal dialogue during the thh introductions sure are something#‘this guy is.. kinda annoying’ <<guys he’s NOT all sunshine and rainbows he has depth I swear#(I am actively going insane)#makoto naegi#danganronpa

Is it funnier if:
Shishido tunes in to the VTuber's broadcast knowing he'll fume about exposing Kiryu being his idea first
Shishido is already a fan of the VTuber and tunes in as normal only to fume about exposing Kiryu being his idea first
Shishido is the VTuber
SHISHIDO IS THE VTUBER
#snap chats#sorry i had frog soju#BUT NOOOOOO THTD BE MY FAVORITE RRGG PLOTTWIST#he slithered away from the fuckinnnn daidoji ??? think thats whaat theyre called..#he ran waay from em and decided to purus e a carreer as a vtuber NOOO YOU KOW WHAET VIDEO I THOUGHT OF#THE FUCKING ONE WHERE THE VTUBER HAD A SHIBA INU AVATAR#BUT THEY MOVED OUT OF CAPTURE FOCUS OR WHATEVER AND WAS EXPOSED AS JUST SOME GUY#the correct vtuber tieline. let shishido move Just out of frame enouhg to expose his ass#what do you MEAAAAAN its nt a catgirl...... just a big man........#its like a twelve step plan see he won in the fend#would also be funny if as a form of 'reformation' or whateve the daidoi just show him the fuckin livestream 😭😭#he isnt allowed o let loose that he tried to expose kiryu Not being dead first#He Has No Mouth And He Must Scream type of deal

what if i made an au where the prism created sonics for the different groups once it was fixed lol that'd be wild. anyways
new yoke gets shard ; a grumpy loner who particularly enjoys being a thorn in the council's side. he's fine with the resistance, but the way they make him out to be some grand hero can annoy him. rebel and knucks are the real heroes for keeping the fight going for so long, they deserve that credit. he's not sure who this 'traitorous fox' guy they keep mentioning is, but he's curious. maybe he could get an explanation from the council after their next fight. or he might steal a ship and go find the fox himself
boscage maze gets spirit ; a happy, optimistic, very animated hedgehog. he's clueless to the previous battles between "the monster and the scavengers" but he doesn't seem to mind. he's great at finding a middle ground for prim and thorn whenever they get a bit too heated. he also seems to be able to read mangey like a book, able to hold conversations with him easily despite the fox not saying a single word
no place gets tonic ; a more chill guy to contrast dread's anger and grief and black rose's high energy. he mostly lazes about, but sails seems to take a liking to him so they let him stay aboard the angel's voyage 2.0 despite the fact he doesnt see to be able to swim. he doesn't really talk either, but he's pretty damn good with a sword
#i got to thinking about the ending of prime and it got a bit out of hand#im personally pro 'the shatterverses merged to reform green hill' but yknow#the shatterverses sticking around is fun to play with#and play i shall#god i wish i could draw#guys i can see them so VIVIDLY it pains me that i can't show yall#sonic the hedgehog#miles tails prower#sth#tails the fox#sonic#sonic prime#should i mark spoilers? idk but im gonna#sonic prime spoilers#miles nine prower#mangey tails#sails the fox#sonic au#sonic prime au#after prime au#shard the hedgehog#spirit the hedgehog#tonic the hedgehog

imagining sirius and james being roommates in uni and being the 'bachelors' of their building, always going out and flirting, making out with random people in the club and bringing them back, but eventually they both meet Remus and Lily and immediately both fall head over heels and they just sit and whine about how hot they both are but neither of them will flirt with them and keep turning them down until eventually a couple years later they're both in their shared house and they come downstairs at the same time, seeing Remus and Lily at the kitchen table after both couples spent the night together for the first time, and sirius and james just fist bump because yeah they got laid but they got laid with the loves of their lives and they're both in healthy, happy relationships at the exact same time like they always said they would be as kids
#help they'd be such playboys in college#and remus and lily refuse until they reform#then theres dorlene and bartylus both like tf is wrong with you guys because they've been together since they were all teens#the marauders#remus lupin#sirius black#james potter#lily evans#jily#wolfstar

How does he reform folks? I assume it's by choose since I've seen he can choose not too. And do fatal. So, Is there a like a time limit on that? Could he change his mind during softer digestion too?
Here's a little doodle of how I envision it looking!
Because he's a shapeshifter, Chris will usually choose to separate any prey he intends for reformation in his guts by closing up whatever section of intestine he has that contains the most of his prey (ie: the heaviest section).
Upon making sure it's of a suitable size to hold fully reformed prey, with a sharp gurgle and sudden squeeze, he squishes what's left of the prey together tightly, and when his gut expands again-
Plop. There's a new prey. Trapped in the maze of his belly, it's up to him to decide their fate- and from the look of that gut portion, it seems he's decided to rejoin them with the rest of his digestive system for another round. How unfortunate.
He can change his mind on softer digestion as well! Oftentimes, he'll reform the prey as they're melting in his gut to keep them alive but soupy while he decides what to do with them. As for a time limit... that I'm not sure of. I want to say it's probably until the prey has been completely digested (bones and all with enough loops) but I think if it was the exact right scenario, he could bring back someone he'd entirely gurgled away, though it would take a LOT of energy out of him.
#chris tag#soft vore#g/t vore#a little treat#digestion#internal#reform#digestion with reform#unwilling prey#reformation vore#vore reform#tiny prey#i really love being able to draw his weird anatomy for practice thank you!!#chris lore#(he gets a lore tag for when i do tell u guys shit about him hglkfskldsj)
