Hero of the Year 2025

I'm calling it early - I doubt anyone will beat The Right Reverend Mariann Edgar Budde

(I sure hope I've addressed her correctly)

For the most stunning act of bravery, class, integrity, and speaking truth to power that has graced the USA in far too long.

Not a single shake in her voice as she spoke directly to one of the most vengeful, spiteful, and (unfortunately) powerful people on the planet, while also receiving glares of hate and outrage from the despicable VP and his wife.

It's not the first time she's stood up for what is right in defiance of trump's actions, but while many may speak out on it, there have been scarcely any with the backbone to follow through on the opportunity to do it to his face, and especially on live television. She had her moment, and she didn't waste it.

May she be the inspiration we all take forward with us into the turbulent times ahead.

Star Wars is about normal people rising up against a fascist regime that benifits off of systematic suffering btw.

Yes, it is a space opera about ppl with lazer swords.

Yes, it's a universe that can tell stories beyond our wildest imaginations.

And it may seem silly on surface level, but it is ALSO a political allegory that nearly perfectly demonstrates how the coruption and greed of a few destroy the lives of many.

To any all of you reading this, I want you to understand that the politics of Star Wars is not-- and never has been-- fiction.

To my non-american followers who are watching this shit-show go down, I urge you to understand that the corruption in our nation runs deep, and that a great deal of the American people are terrified of what is to come. We did not vote for this, just as the people of the galaxy did not vote for Palpatine. Our liberty IS dying, and we are NOT the ones applauding. I implore you to separate our government from the people because we are not one in the same.

To my American followers, the times ahead of us are dark, and I know it's difficult to think about, but we must hold out hope. We must acknowledge that our government no longer serves us, but they have no power if we are not complacent. NOBODY is immune to propaganda, and in these next couple of months you will be seeing ALOT of it, so I beg you to stay informed. The media we consume WILL become riddled with right-wing propaganda derived from lies and fear-mongering. Our best line of defense against this will, and forever will be, education.

Hold out hope in our communities, hold out hope for a better future, hold out hope that we may one day come out of this with a new system for the people BY the people.

"The empire is a disease that thrives in darkness. It is never more alive than when we sleep," and so I urge you to WAKE UP. Wake up, and search for the light, wake up and protect those you care about, wake up, and FIGHT for what you believe in.

Despite what some people want you to believe, you are not powerless. WE THE PEOPLE are not powerless, and we CANNOT continue to be complacent in a system that benefits the rich while we are forced to suffer.

And even if we do suffer, even if we face hardship, even if we must endure the darkness before we see the light, we are in it TOGETHER. Although you may feel alone, know that you are NOT. Even in isolation, we can find something to fight for, and in these trying times, we must fight for each other. We must fight for not only ourselves but for our loved ones, and for our futures. We have to fight for something bigger.

End of rant; i love u all and stay safe 🫶

Hey, american trans and non-binary people. Just a Canadian Cis scientist here but I see you, I know you're real, and I believe you deserve better than this. 4 years will pass. People will keep fighting for your rights to exist safely. It's worth sticking around for. The world is a better place with you in it. I promise.

I’d like to get off this sinking ship

Ain’t no way Trump just said the government would establish two genders: male and female, in his inauguration speech, and people are still trying to say that queer folks have no need to be scared 😭 fucking losing it

instead of scrolling mindlessly on tiktok, consider:

staring into the bathroom mirror, trying to discern hints of your parents' faces in your own

falling into a vicious cycle you will spend decades of your life trying to crawl and bite your way out of

placing your ear to the mossy ground. do you hear it? is that the earth's heartbeat, or your own?

whispering forgotten hymns from a dead language into your pillow and listening for a response

putting your tongue to something you would otherwise never get to taste

climbing as high as you can in the tallest tree you can find and reaching up to brush the sky with your fingertips. it can't be that high up, right?

reading

falling to your knees in an empty field and screaming until your lungs give out

listening to yourself talk and realizing that all you say is an amalgamation of thoughts and feelings from other people, some of which you will never see or speak to again

establishing a tentative peace with the spider in that dim corner you can never bring yourself to reach into

scrolling mindlessly on another social media app that just doesn't hit quite the same

it cannot be overstated that democrats handed the tiktok victory over to republicans on a silver platter. party of useless dipshit ghouls

[wiillatree]

I don't like how we're lining up with Star Wars accurately to this day

[wiillatree]

Just in case any of you are confused, TikTok being banned and coming back not even 24 hours later with a giant "we thank President Trump" message is NOT a win. It's a huge red flag and a sign that this was a thousand percent planned.
