>Join a union

>Hear people constantly complaining that the current union leadership is super corrupt, it's all just the same ten guys making all the decisions in secret and nobody else in the union ever gets to know what's going on

>Go to the monthly union meetings that are completely open to all 1200 union members

>The only attendees are the same ten guys every month, giving detailed reports about everything that's going on

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

Reblog the fundraisers you mfs!!!!! I don't know why you all skip those to reblog some pic of a banner saying "FREE PALESTINE" or of news from Columbia University! Literally these people from Gaza have made an account on Tumblr and is writing in english to communicate what they need and you all are coming onto my blog or on the tag and not reblogging their posts. We have people both Palestinian and non Palestinian vetting the fundraisers! I mean more the reblogs, more the chance of the fundraisers gaining momemtum, the more there would be a chance of a donation. Please donate if you can and reblog!!! and follow them if it is possible.

@/mohammedayesh has posted about getting leaflets, telling them to evacuate Rafah. They are very low on funds. Go follow them and reblog their posts and donate if possible.

We have @/haneenatya too whose mother is suffering from eye stroke and need to evacuate. Please I have been following them for some days and it doesn't seem their own posts are getting much attention.

Follow them! They are on tumblr. Reblog their posts and donate. The protests in universities are being done on account of them. They should be our focus.

(EDIT: on re-reading my post it seems as if I am dismissing all that the students of universities are doing. I am not. I just meant, since all of it is to help Palestinians, we must not ignore them when they ask for help).

This

Hmm...

I would set this in the Deep City verse, actually. Make it a story that Noctis found in the royal archives as a kid, when he was there searching for information about his magic.

And there he found the story of Aurel Lucis Caelum. He was the son of the Conqueror King. He had two younger siblings, Tempestates and Maris, and one cousin named Justus. All four had the potential to inherit. But then Aurel did not manifest magic.

By the age of 13 his father disinherited him from the direct line and he became Aurel Caelum. Later texts would call him the Forgotten Prince.

The text Noctis found is full of holes, brittle and old and written at least 2 generations after it happened as a copy of a copy, so it's hard for him to know what happened, but the story picks up again after Tempestates had been King for a while.

It goes that Justus died from a poisoning, Maris married out of the family, and all of Tempestates's children were born sickly and died early.

There was no one to inherit the throne. No one but the children of Aurel Caelum, who all showed strong magic.

Tempestates was relatively young still, at 39, but was already suffering badly from the stasis sickness that claims every Lucis Caelum king before they reach 60.

So Tempestates reinstated Aurel into the family proper, so one of his children would inherit. The oldest, Cremes, was already 17 at this point. (Aurel 44)

The old text doesn't really mention what happens next other than telling of Tempestates's untimely death at 41 and Cremes's coronation following that.

Your bloodline is known for carrying superpowers, but you didn’t inherit them. And so your family cut ties with you. But after having children who did inherit those powers, your family tries to reinsert themselves into your life.

Concept: Peter actually got bitten by a totally normal spider. It's just a coincidence that his mutant powers were awakened around the same time

honestly you all are so annoying because motherhood IS interesting but fandom people are simultaneously obsessed with deciding that every woman has motherly qualities and completely disinterested in actually exploring motherhood as a role that informs a character. I do think exploring a character being a mother can be wildly interesting if they are canonically one, but because of misogyny, people just view motherhood as a totally unremarkable naturalized state that all women must inhabit!

Neopets discourse is always funny to me because whenever drama starts up 90% of the time it's over something that's just objectively really silly

For example, right now there's neo-billionaires threatening to quit the site over a rare item being released, which wouldn't be funny except the item in question is a tiny pea wearing a Santa hat
