MFW a motherfucker tells everyone that he apparently believes the Uyghurs and Rohingya people are "invaders"

Look, tlaquetzqui, we all know you have the IQ of a rattle, but you failing to realize that both groups have resided in Central and/or East Asia for centuries for is just embarrassing. (Mind you, the government of Myanmar has tried to argue that the Rohingya people only migrated during the period of the British Raj, but most of the evidence is not on their side).

Yes, yes, most Muslims in western Europe and the Americas are immigrants, but that ain't how it works elsewhere.

One wonders if he thinks the Albanians, Bosniaks, Crimean and Volga Tatars, Adjarians, Chechens, and Ingush are also "invaders" because they're Muslims and therefore foreign... Then again, we're probably better off not knowing.

Him calling the Muslims in France "invaders" is also pretty rich considering that most of them are North Africans from France's former colonies and that they were widely invited to move there after World War II to help in France's economic reconstruction, much like the Turks in Germany and South Asians in Great Britain.

"I acted smug and dodged the question, and that means I win!" -geekAndMisandry, always

Like I keep saying, this should not be a hard question to answer, and you can even have pro-trans definitions.

In fact, by any remotely conventional definition, you need to identify "woman" and "man" to even say what being trans is.

Pretending it's a slippery, subjective definition depending on who's being asked ignores the fact that most definition requests are for conversational English use. Or that person's personal, everyday definition.

And so was the context where the meme was popularized.

Needless to say, @tlaquetzqui got blocked.

Also, it's kind of hilarious that someone who blocks and mocks people over the slightest contradiction, without coming up with an actual counterargument, pretends she's open-minded and intellectual.

Especially in a post obviously made for backpats from other smugsters.

[yourtoradorasextendedwarranty]

You are retarded just like tlaquetzqui. Both need to kurt cobian yourselves

Funny fact. Suicide bait is considered a form of harassment. Of which I could report. Which I won't because I think your pathetic and a coward.

[did-i-do-this-write]

Thanks to some honest and eye opening advice from @tlaquetzqui and @sleepyowlwrites I'm going to take a break from writing for a little bit, but I don't want to leave the community.

Anyone around to chat today? Might help my creativity while I recharge to hear about other's progress and writing 😊

takashi0 is generally a ponderous idiot, but he was actually correct on this point (that the Soviet Union's policies frequently effected its minorities more severely) and it's tlaquetzqui doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.

During the Civil War, one population singled out for attempted annihilation by the Reds were the Don Cossacks.

The Soviet famines of the 1930s actually had the most devastating impacts of the Kazakhs. It's estimated that somewhere between 38-42% of the Kazakh population died and the population proportions of ethnic Kazakhs in Kazakhstan were reduced from over 60% to 38%.

During the Great Purge, Poles and Latvians were especially likely to be arrested and shot, while other common NKVD targets were Finns, Estonians, Chinese, Koreans, Bulgarians, Afghans, Iranians, and Greeks.

Between 1930 and 1945, Stalin and the NKVD heads (first, Yezhov and then Beria) had numerous minority groups (such as Far East Koreans, Poles, Volga Germans, Chechens, Ingush, Poles, Kola Norwegian, Romanians, Estonians, Finns, Latvians, Lithuanians, Crimean Tatars and Greeks, Kalmyks, Karachays, Meskhetian Turks, and Karapapaks) deported to Siberia and Central Asia where vast numbers of them died from disease and starvation.

Why doesn't tlaquetzqui know about that? Probably because he's an ignorant twit who wasn't aware that the Soviet Union consisted of more than Russians and Ukrainians. He MIGHT know about Belarusians, but I wouldn't hold my breath...

@tlaquetzqui : “The Thera theory is a thing Chesterton called out a hundred years ago, about how people will believe any nonsense—like trying to connect the Plagues of Egypt in 1300 with the eruption of Thera in 1600, with exactly fucking zero evidence—just so long as it is mundane nonsense. There is absolutely no reason to think the Plagues and Thera have anything to do with one another. Zero. None. It is far more logical to believe in a series of supernatural blights than it is to believe Thera was the Plagues. One is “I shall take this source’s word”, the other is “what if I claim that this source, when it says these ten things, actually means something completely different, that I can associate with something else in the same part of the world 300 fucking years earlier, with exactly zero reason to associate the two”.

The Thera theory is about one step from Ancient Astronaut theories.”

________

“The Thera theory is about one step from Ancient Astronaut theories” - says the person who firmly believes a supernatural over-powered alien let the Hebrews free of Egypt and then didn’t bother to give anymore fucks when they were put through an infinity times worse ordeal... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

When every sane person knows how destructive volcanic eruptions are worldwide, and how easy humans alters their history to make it sound more how they want it to, im this case “god’s chosen people” lmao. 😂😂😂

[queer-disability-aotearoa]

the british were cannibals. they literally ate egyptian mummies as throat lozenges and ground them up for paint pigment.

you seem to have missed the point so let me make it explicitly clear. its not about historical accuracy to the racists. never was, never will be. its about latching on to a narrative where they can paint maori as a society being war like, savage and therefore deserved the savage wars the british perpetuated on them in order to steal this nation. its painting the british as civilised for murdering their way around the world for land gains and the maori as brutal lesser beings for defending themselves against it.

by your own actions you are perpetuating the very narrative the racists want by well ackshuallying a post that doesn't need it

everytime i try to reblog this it 'fails to process' on desktop and mobile so i'm gonna have to @tlaquetzqui

its incredibly telling about racism in aotearoa when the reasonable enlightened civilised opposition to the treaty protests are at any given time 30 seconds away from calling maori a pack of cannibal savages and trotting out decades old misinformation.

join us in the future by repeating what our dads said about maori people behind closed doors

[the-alien-plateau-project]

(I renamed these guys after reading a comment from @tlaquetzqui, so I reposting this post of the Mictlani with there new name).

The Alien Plateau: Mictecan.

The Mictecan are medium sized creatures from the planet Kinich Ahau that evolved from nocturnal scavengers and have gained intelligence comparable to humans. There diet consists of bones, Rustwalker crabs and other hard food sources, though they will hunt live prey and eat fresh or rotten meat. They live in small nomadic villages of between 12 to 26 individuals, and are currently in the Paleolithic era in terms of technology. They have mastered fire, derived a language from clicking there jaws together that sounds similar to the shoebill storks, and have written a simple writing system for said language. They live primarily in the Camazots Plateau, a massive desert biome that covers 20 present of the isolated continent of Alokia, where the Mictecan all live in. They are named after the Nahuatl word “Micteca”, which means “people of death”.

@tlaquetzqui Me right now, an unoriginal clown:

Oh my god thank you for pointing this out hahahaha. Unlikely as it sounds I legitimately had no idea this was a thing jeeZUS 😂

Yup okay, okay yeah next world name I'll actually do a search of D&D/game/media worlds instead of just being like "that sounds neat!" And from what I got from the dark sun wiki I promise the Nameless' world is definitely not as hostile/brutal, just more empty!

So yeah UHHHH tbd on what the world is called gonna figure that out. 😂 Thank you for letting me know!

Rules: Tag four or more followers, answer one question and ask one question for your followers to answer in return.

Your question: Tell me about some of the characters you’re currently writing! Who are your favorites? I’d especially like to hear about some antagonists, baddies or villains.

My main antagonist is named James, and though there is a lot I can't talk about due to spoilers, I will say he has at least two schemes going on in the background, but we don't find out the extent of them until book 2 (and 3?). He works as scientist/doctor studying curses, and thus meets and works with one of the protagonists, who has no idea of his nefarious designs.

James is calm, cool and collected, but he has an... associate, shall we say, who is much more unhinged and wrathful. Her name is Torako, and she is something of a homicidal maniac (for semi-understandable reasons?). Despite having every reason to resent James, she does not, and instead considers him her one and only companion. What does he consider her? Well, that remains to be seen...

My Question: Let's begin at the beginning: how did you decide where/when to start your story? That is, how did you decide what to have happen in "Chapter 1"?

I tag @tlaquetzqui, @itsabubblegumworld, @pe-ersona, and @gaslightwestern, @hklunethewriter, and anyone else who would like to play :D

@tlaquetzqui​ THANK YOU that’s so interesting, I didn’t know this!! It’s really easy to find examples of foods that seem “weird” or “gross” from a modern white american cultural perspective since, you know, that’s the one I grew up with and live in, so I really love learning about things we eat and consider totally normal that other people would think is disgusting or wrong. This kind of thing is so interesting to me-- people will act like certain foods being gross is a Universal Truth handed down from on high or whatever but it’s literally all just a matter of cultural perspective

I need to go to the bathroom and go to bed but this sweet old kitty has chosen me to sleep on. He's dreaming and his toes are twitching 😭 @tlaquetzqui why is your kitty so cute?

[tyrantofthefirmament]

Does that make Phoenix his Ghost?

dgfjhfkdjfsdlak that’s actually pretty perfect! She found him when he was kinda dead to the world and her recognizing his dedication was what helped bring him back. Assuming he’s not actually a sketchy Archon trying to backstab his Kell, as @tlaquetzqui pointed out XD
