tw: homophobic slurs
Obviously, I do not agree with the usage of homophobic slurs. It’s not cool. It doesn’t matter if it’s being directed at cops or Republicans or any group that I dislike. If someone uses slurs against an enemy of theirs, then they have probably used it against the group that it’s meant to disparage.
I just wanted to post this because of A) how perfectly she handled the police - you don’t necessarily have to curse, but never ever ever let them enter your home without a warrant B) to show how the police routinely lie about having search warrants + doing sketchy shit for their alleged “safety,” and C) because I truly believe this was a white person, and that + being recorded are literally thee only reasons they stayed polite and didn’t goon squad rush her ass.
White people generally get away with being crass and disrespectful to police officers. Sandra Bland, on the other hand, got murdered for being “too uppity.”

This is despicable. This is the same okie doke they pulled with Britney Spears (dementia). And the fact that Wells Fargo Bank is even tangentially involved with keeping a Black woman separated from her money should be disqualifying. Wishing Wendy Williams and her loved ones the best.

ELECTION PSA
If you are in line to vote and your state’s polls close (ex. Illinois closes at 7PM CST), do not get out of line! They are REQUIRED to let you stay in line and vote.
Don’t let anyone convince you that your vote doesn’t matter. Your voice, especially those of you in a swing state, matters greatly for the future of our country.
#election 2024#us elections#usa election#United States of America#presidential election#election day#and if you’re inclined vote blue 🙂#the last time I posted about the election I went viral and received death threats in 2020#I might be a lowly fanfiction writer but I have a goddamn brain and two degrees and I know how to use it#kamala harris

When I think about American attitudes to parenting there's something that always comes to mind, but I don't know whether it's a real thing. All my life in American films and TV I've heard child characters addressing their dads as "sir" or being told off for not doing so.
Is that really a commonplace thing in American families, or is it just a shorthand way of showing that the character is a shitty dad?

So, I’ve had the thought of “what if Max never intercepted the bullet, and Peter did die.” Because I’ve never been happy a day in my life. This image of Peter shot and the LIB coming in and possessing his body to take Max and Peter away has been haunting me for a few weeks now, sooo….
I did this on Medibang pro, which I haven’t touched in years, but yknow what, I had a good time! Sorry about this one.
#nector art!#fanart#starkid#peter spankoffski#If I had a nickel for every traumatized fictional Peter that had a history with the supernatural#I’d have two nickels#well technically the spiderverse exists so I’d actually have infinity nickels#and I could afford a two story house in America#:/#anyway………#my summer is going poorly#might die#might run into traffic#might just#tw blood

#hetalia#aph russia#aph america#rusame#aph rusame#still figuring out tags#there's so many different names to this series idk what the most used one is#that would require browsing each tag and i'm too lazy#side note i worried i made america look too young especially in the last pic#but like... he IS young i had to remind myself#russia turned out okay in that i liked that you can't tell if he's old or young#except in that last pic he looks odd but i struggled with what i wanted his expression to be period#it wouldn't have mattered#these two are fun and versatile to mold and play with btw <3

Elon Musk was forced to reveal who financed his purchase of Twitter. Amongst owners are two Russian oligarchs close to Putin and sanctioned over the Russian invasion of Ukraine: Petr Aven and Vadim Moshkovich.
Petr Aven is a Russian billionaire, founder of Alfa Group, which is one of the main wallets for Putin. Aven also attended a meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022 to mark the start of the invasion of Ukraine.
Vadim Moshkovich owns Russia's largest agricultural holding Rusagro. Naturally, he also attended the meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022 and, like Aven, did not protest against Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
#anyone tells me musk is not a corrupted oligarch and a russian asset#I will throw THIS at them#america#usa#the us#washington#russia#putin#politics#billionaire#elon musk#україна#укртумбочка#укртамблер#укртумба#twitter#btw the reason those two among other ru oligarchs were called to pootin in the wake of the invasion#is to consult them on what they can do with all the economic war spoils russia would get after ukraine's defeat#the agricultural sector the fuels the mines - all the oligarchs who own those sectors in Russia were called in to Putin that day#and those are Elon Musk's sponsors
