(also feel free in the tags to clarify Why you made the choice you made!! :0c)
#polls#tumblr polls#For me I think the top ones would be the House. The Money. or the Friend Group. But I ultimately might would go for the house#JUST becuase it would be my Dream House which means it would already meet mostly all of my specifications#and what I might be looking for. which would save a lot of time searching or customizing/rennovating.#Also because I could use that as a way to leave the US lol.. like .. if I get to choose my dream location.. couldnt I just choose some othe#country?? But I wonder how that works. Can you legally 100% have full ownership of a property in a country yet not be a citizen of that#country?? Would you show up and be like 'erm.. i own this house.. so i shall now live in it' and theyd be like 'uh no. you cant live here#despite owning the house. leave.' ??#So I think the initial process of 1. scraping together funds to actually MOVE myself and my most valuable belongings physically#TO another country. and 2. figuring out how to STAY in that country . might end up being difficult.. BUT. if I could just work that#part of things out then.. dream house?? security for once in my life?? stability?? :0#Though the $1mil is enticing it's also like.. I feel .. with the way housing prices are now... that's not much???#it's a lot I guess if you plan on like.. investing half the money and staying in an apartment for 5 years while you grow your wealth#or something. but if you're a 'I Need Stability NOW' ready to settle down person who would be most interested in owning a property rather#than nice clothes or a car or whatever other investments you could make then.. eh..?? It seems like unless you're okay with living in#a small town or kind of far away from the city - even some SMALL houses in majorly populated areas in the US will be like#$600.000 - $900.000 or something. like that would be MOST of my money. Which I know you could just pay partially and make#payments on it but idk.. in the option of just outright owning the house it seems like it'd end up being cheaper.#Plus I would want to own it fully asap because I'd be afraid of losing it somehow otherwise. like it being taken for medical bills or#something. which I thought was supposed to be - not IMPOSSIBLE - slightly more complicated legally if you actually have#paid off the house in full. I guess the issue then would be utilities and property tax and such. But I feel like thats overcome-able??#Like I could just stipulate that my Dream House has a little furnished addition or something and then find someone#with money and be like 'Look you can live in this extremely nice area with amazing ameneties and updated everything and ALL you have#to do is give me money to cover the utilities and property tax.'' or something like that. Like the little furnished addition is nicer#than the actual house. they have their own pool and spa and movie room or something and Ill also cook all their meals for them#or whatever (how luxurious it would be depeneds on how high the property tax actually is/how much I would need to entice them into#why it's a good deal for them to pay it for me lol). idk... something like that.. ANYWAY#I asked a few people I know though and one of them answered they'd rather have a romantic partner. the other one said they'd like#to be able to choose someone to die lol.. So I'm curious what people value the most

My younger sibling literally blocked my phone number because we got into an argument over capitalism ???
Wow I reached the tag limit on this post
Beware a long vent in the tags lmao
#shitpost#vent#(in the tags)#her indifference to the world and willingness to participate in the corrupt parts of society pisses me off#if she found out the developers of a mobile app she likes were actually xenophobic or smth she wouldn't even care bc it doesnt affect her#she would rather stay ignorant and harm others than accept that some things she likes have bad impacts on the world#even ai. which arguably DOES affect her bc shes creative. but she just doesnt see how it harms her bc its not an active type of harm#its just in the background closing in on you#even if her own stuff was stolen by ai she just WOULDNT FUCKING CARE#and it makes me mad!!!#shes so ignorant. to the world and also to others#if she doesnt understand something she doesnt care#if she doesnt understand why i use it/its or he/him then she just. doesnt use them for me#and then if i confront her says “well you didn't tell me”#LIKE. I WEAR A LANYARD WITH MY PRONOUNS ON IT. HOW FUCKING HARD CAN IT BE TO JUST. LOLK AT MY LANYARD#agh this got off topic#anyways. my point is she makes me mad#goddd the way she sees capitalism#she called me dumb for “not understanding business”#and i said anyone who DOES understand business knows it's crap and capitalism is awful#and she just got mad and blocked my number#her problem is that shes STUBBORN. and she hates being corrected.#and shes so insistent on being an ally. shes literally part of the lgbtq community.#but her problem is that she doesnt care enough.#she rants to me about Trump being stupid. but not in a “im worried abt the trans ppl in our country” way#in a “lmao hes dumb i can't believe hes so stuuuupid” way#she doesnt get it#to her it's like. the aesthetic and moral highground of being an ally. but without actually caring#its one thing to joke a bit but its another to joke while also ignoring the issues#UGH SHE PISSES ME OFF SO BAD

babe wake up a new Venti-coded song just droppped
“I’m as sober as a drunk.
I’m as high as rock bottom.
Free as a man with his hands handcuffed to the bar.”
#we’re gonna ignore the fact that this song released in 2020 okay. it’s new(ish) to Me and i want an excuse to post about Venti#venti#genshin impact#venti genshin impact#genshin impact venti#venti gi#music stuff#Seven’s Blorbo Songs#Spotify#we’re also gonna ignore that the majority of the song is relationship/breakup focused#the three lines i quoted up there are so Venticore to me that the rest is inconsequential#but if ur deranged enough like me then im sure there’s a way to interpret the other lyrics to be about Nameless Bard#if ur in the mood for some Extra angst y’know#actually the more i think about it. that’s actually a very fitting way to interpret the other lines!#like. instead of trying to drown the memory of some ex he’s drinking to cope with the loss of his best friend :)))#or if u wanna interpret them as having been something more than friends then this works too. i like to think wisp Venti had a crush on N.B.#OR given that lots of ppl headcanon Venti and Zhongli to be exes you could Also interpret it as being about him! many options here actually#maniacal laughter#i love angst so much#anyways. go listen or read the lyrics and tell me if i’m wrong but. this is Venticore to me#like not to play into the done-to-death Alcoholic Venti trope but. while that’s not Everything he is it’s still part of him#and i think there’s something to the whole concept of the God of Freedom being chained down by addiction. y’know?#anyways *adds yet another self-indulgent country song to my Venti playlist*#there’s a reason it’s been sitting at 13 followers for like. two years. (bc i won’t stop adding my niche songs that make sense to no one)#but then again that’s 90% of my playlists anyway lmao#i’ve had Venti on the brain a lot lately since i started writing a new oneshot that has once again turned into a full-blown songfic#and given that it feels like something is trying to claw its way out of my uterus rn and i actually have a free evening to rest#methinks i’ll curl up in bed and finish writing that fic so i can finally share it with the world#and it will probably flop as hard as my last Venti fic did but that’s okay bc i do this out of love for Venti and nothing can stop me 😤#anyway that fic isn’t directly related to This song but i do explore Alcoholism Themes in the fic bc of course i do

I'm really not a conspiracy theorist. I don't know if Trump cheated to somehow skew the election his way; however, one thing I did notice-- having followed his "public" support for months prior to the election, the second he won, things went quite.
On Twitter, tags like "TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP!" and "Trump47!" were trending for days before November 5th and all throughout election day. But then the results came out and those tags immediately disappeared. Which, fine, they were "old" tags, but -- it's not like new ones took their place. No "Trump won!" began dominating the trends. No "MAGA!" or "Congrats Mr. President"... nothing. In fact, various sport and international tags suddenly overtook, like the election was already old news.
Why? How? Of course, I know Elon is in Trump's pocket, and I know X/Twitter has been a MAGA megaphone for a while, and of course, I know Trump does have a real following out there-- but why did it seem so outspoken and dominating one second, and all but disappear the next?
I don't know if Trump cheated in order to win this election. I just know that the hype surrounding him got pretty damn quite the moment he won.
It just feels off to me.
#I sadly don't think there's any way we're avoiding another Trump term#Even if some misconduct happened#I don't think#as president elect#he'll be reachable by the hand of justice#considering he avoided it so well while not being in the white house#but maybe#if his support isn't what we thought#he'll have a harder time destroying the country#a girl can hope#fuck trump#fuck vance#election 2024

Incredible sequence of posts on the dash just now
#to be clear bc i know im swinging a bat at a hornets nest i think both of these posts make decent points#i am a socialist but i do not believe that revolutionary and reformist politics are necessarily mutually exclusive#multiple things can be true at once#capitalism is a fundamentally exploitative and violent system which must be swiftly dismantled for the sake of all life on the planet#and those who enter parliamentary politics in hopes of enacting reform often end up serving the interests of capital and western imperialis#but at the same time#we must not abrogate responsibility by refusing to exercise our hard-won democratic right to participate in elections#its an insult to the millions of people around the world living under authoritarian regimes for one thing and its fucking stupid for anothe#we must be realistic about the state of class consciousness in most western societies and work pragmatically with the tools available to us#we must also try to minimise harm and suffering as best we can and produce the best outcome for the greatest number of people#while also not leaving behind those who are marginalised#at times both reform and revolution seem impossible tasks and yet we must continue to work towards them both as best we can#on the topic of voting - i live in australia where its compulsory and where we also have preferential voting#which means that its impossible to “waste your vote” by voting for a minor party#i typically vote for our greens party - who are the largest minor party in the country and the most progressive on most issues#for example they're basically the only ones consistently condemning our (labour) government's support of israel#so to be clear for the americans reading these tags#if i lived in the USA i would vote in every election#i might sometimes vote for democratic candidates if they had genuinely progressive policies#but no i would not “vote blue no matter who”#okay i'm finished tilting at windmills now im just paranoid about being misinterpreted asdgfhjklk#voting#elections#the trolley problem#reform#revolution#leftist#socialism#marxist

My mom was like “UGH I just don’t understand why hosting thanksgiving is so hard for me to do when my mom always seemed to handle it so well. I don’t know how my parents did it. How were they able to cook everything and get the house clean and looking nice all at the same time?” And I was like well. You’re a single woman living in one of the most expensive areas in the country. And your parents were able to raise four kids in a solidly middle class environment while living off of only one income. And also they were both functional alcoholics. So. 🤷
#also they lived in another country for several years where their money went even farther#she’s like I just can’t handle it not being CLEAN okay!! my mom always did it easily!!!#and I’m like. didn’t you guys literally have a fucking maid for a while???#‘she never got stressed out like this’ well yes she was too busy being champagne drunk by noon

Today's BakuDeku Song Is: Such Great Heights - The Postal Service
And true it may seem like a stretch But it's thoughts like this that catch My troubled head when you're away And when I am missing you to death
#bakudeku#bkdk#dkbkdk#dekubaku#dkbk#here's one from izuku's pov!! i told you i had some!!#this one just has the vibe of the two of them being on different missions#maybe izuku's in another country#or maybe katsuki is#and they're both stuck being long distance for a little while because they got split up for different missions#or maybe it's during those 8 years where katsuki's a hero without izuku#and katsuki's on a mission and izuku's teaching or he's taking his classes to become a teacher still#maybe izuku's stuck in his college classes and katsuki's off in america on a mission#i do love me some long distance bkdk vibes

my stress level right now is sky high, and the fall of the Republic is like fifth in my priority list of concerns. which should emphasize just how stressed I am
#my sister#who lives in another country#went into labor yesterday#and I haven't received any updates#(she specifically requested not to be pestered and I am trying to respect that)#my online business was supposed to launch this past week#but because of a technical problem#that I am not responsible for & have no ability to fix#I probably won't get up and running until February#my business launch has already been directly & indirectly undermined#by the political regime change in serious ways#I am having a bunch of health issues#that could be quite serious#but I won't be able to see a doctor for at least another month (possibly more)#i am having to get married this week to access insurance#and while I've been with my partner for 10+ years#marriage was something I was always ambivalent about#with him AND in general#but I am being forced into it by our absolute abomination of a health care system#and it is worth it to be able to get health care#but i am resentful that is my only real access point#my quasi estrangement with my mother#is in this weird limbo#and I am thinking about it a lot#because of my sister#and several other things#my life just feels very heavy right now#and I am feeling a lot of general and specific fear

Are you sad? Are you miserable? Is your life falling apart? Is your body falling apart? Does your head feel like it’s full of cotton, or perhaps TV static? Does it feel like the world is crumbling around you? Is it getting harder to force yourself through the daily motions? Is happiness getting increasingly harder to find?
Why not consider making a large, hyperfixation-fueled impulse purchase?
They won’t tell you this, but all of the happiness and satisfaction you’re searching for, along with each of those little chemicals that make your brain feel good, are all hidden within your very next large, hyperfixation-fueled impulse purchase!
So why don’t you go on ahead and grab that credit card, throw caution to the wind, and chase that good feeling? You certainly won’t regret it. No one has ever regretted making a large, hyperfixation-fueled impulse purchase! Never!
#vent post#didn’t make this post with the intention to sound vaguely like a WTNV fake-sponsorship segment but here we are i guess lmao#anyways hello i have been taking measurements and making calculations and having a big ol’ time all morning#having a lot of genuine fun making Plans for my latest Big Idea that i’ve been cooking up#but then i ran into a wall and the flow-state crashed and reality and self-awareness set back in and now im here yapping abt it#the large purchase is for once actually not in reference to whaling on gacha games this time#Spring has arrived and with it my Aquarium Addiction has once again been revived and i have. Plans#that may or may not involve placing a $500+ order for a custom acrylic aquarium. :)#bc i just can’t have normal hobbies nooOOOO it’s always gotta be the most difficult stressful and expensive shit on earth#but after the past 3 days of planning and moving things around in the house and throwing my back out#i have just realized that the aquarium stand i planned to use will need Further modifications in order to be compatible. fuck!!!#and so as usual when i hit any minor speed-bump while on my fixation-train. i have crashed the train and set it on fire and am debating#abandoning the project entirely. bc i would need to ask **** for help with modifying the stand. and **** is Not in the mood to help me.#like not just for today but for the foreseeable future or maybe ever. i think i’ve already reached his limit of help for this#if i go in there like ‘heeeyyy so y’know that stand i had you spend all that time reinforcing? yeah it needs more. more modifications.’#and i actually don’t even know if it can even be made to work at this point. and i do Not have the money for a new stand#the tank is one thing but the whole point of this project was to make use of the stand i already have#without that it’s just an unjustifiable waste of money bc im starved for happy chemicals and want a big new aquarium to distract me.#anyways i haven’t. Ordered the tank yet. in spite of my use of the term ‘impulse’ im not. That unhinged with money#i won’t order it until i know For Certain that everything else about the plan will work. but sighhhh man i don’t know if it will!!!#but now i’ve got my heart all set on this plan (as if i really need 50 more gallons of water in my room) and i don’t wanna let it goooooo#maybe i’ll try to ask him when/if he’s in a better mood tomorrow. maybe it can still work. but until then i must distract myself#or im just gonna sit here tweaking the plan until i get a migraine bc i am addicted to. making aquarium plans. for some reason.#in other (related) news thanks to the fucking tariffs my $170 Venti cape order had to be cancelled bc i just cannot pay another $200#in tariffs just to get the fucking thing into the country. so that has been refunded and my Dream Venti Cape will have to remain a dream#maybe one day i will try to find someone within the US that i could perhaps commission to make me a custom cape. but not today#bc the Fish have taken back over my brain and i turned around and spent the cape money on… More Fish for my existing aquariums 😔#like Yes i Am aware that im using this all to distract myself from The Horrors in the rest of my life and that it’s not sustainable#but after looking for so long and finding nothing but pink ones how do i turn down brown dojo loaches being sold for $5 a pop??? i Had to.#ok im out of tags so that means it’s time to shut up and go do a water change on the 55gal before i get too tired to do it today.

So a Jewish woman visited Kerala, India and came across a pro-Palestine poster here. And then she proceeded to tear it down.

When she was confronted, she decided to act entitled and argue with the locals. She even said that "we make money off the jews. And then spread hate against them."
You do not get to go to another country and vandalise people's private property there. And you certainly don't get to enjoy the services provided by us and then blame us for taking money for said services.
And most importantly, if a poster which appeals to people to stand up for humanity triggers you so much, maybe take a look at who you are. Don't make this conflict and being pro-israel your entire personality.
#palestine#kerala#india#stop the genocide#at the very least realise the irony of complaining about being a victim#while you are visiting another country as a tourist#compared to the Palestinians who are literally starving/dying/sick with barely any means to escape

i went and watched the temper tantrump and hhholy shit. it's like an argument between me and my dad except trump doesn't even have any kind of familial relation to claim that would "justify" his immature behavior and refusal to let zelenskyy speak
#rosie babbles#us politics#SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT 'THE CARDS'#THEY WANT HIM TO T H A N K THE US???#i. it's literally just 'im going to make you sit here and feel horrible abt yourself while i preach at you abt how gracious im being'#IT'S LITERALLY JUST HOW MY DAD REACTED TO ME HAVING DAD-INFLICTED HANGUPS OVER DISHWASHING#AND TRUMP IS DOING IT TO ANOTHER HEAD OF STATE WHO IS TRYING TO KEEP HIS COUNTRY FROM BEING TAKEN OVER#i am so. so. SO. disappointed in the people who voted this turd of a man back into office.

is there a word for survivor's guilt but like......expat's guilt. where you're watching your country go to shit and you have to watch as all your friends and family bear the brunt of it
#and you want to scream because you cant help all of them and it doesnt feel fair that i get the protections of my country of residence#where i could probably choose to spend the rest of my life here#but i feel like that would just be abandoning so many of my friends#idk man it's a really weird feeling!!#all i can do when im chatting with my friends in the US is go 'haha i hope they let me spend another 4 years on my phd'#while we're all filled with existential dread#why is it fair that i feel comfortable to be visibly queer or not worry about having access to abortion??#just because i got lucky and got into a university and could afford to move abroad a few years ago??#and yes im fully aware that even this whole post is coming from a place of privilege of being usamerican and that many many people have#it much worse#idk it's just. god. why.#xena.txt
