📢 ISRAEL HAS KIDNAPPED ALL 12 CREW ON BOARD THE MADLEEN HUMANITARIAN AID SHIP 🚨

Earlier this evening, the IOF boarded The Madleen humanitarian aid ship, headed to break the siege on Gaza.

As a result, 12 foreign nationals have been kidnapped by the IOF and their fate is currently unknown.

You can help.

You can contact the relevant ministries of foreign affairs for the crew on board The Madleen and also the UK foreign ministry as this was a UK flagged ship.

This is a violation of international law and an attack on the UK's sovereignty.

The crew on board The Madleen also reported white "paint" being poured on them and it's unknown what this substance was.

Please write to your local representatives and the relevant ministries of foreign affairs to demand the safe release of all 12 crew members who were on board The Madleen.

This is a crisis.

hey sorry not to be an asshole but I saw someone say that a sports team posting about pride month was "pandering" and I need you to log off and touch grass because now more than EVER it's important that large institutions (and especially those that could easily be right wing like sports teams) show the fuck up for queer and trans people. especially trans people. so no it is not "pandering" to take a stand for a marginalized group of people that are currently under attack for trying to play sports. be so fucking for real

I know the whole Hbomberguy Tommy Tallarico thing is extremely old news by now but I think I just had a firsthand Tallarico Experience TM.

A couple days ago I watched the vid together with my husband who hadn't watched it yet, and last night were talking about it and laughing about the whole "first american to ever work on sonic" thing and I was like. "What even were the tracks he composed for Sonic? Lemme look them up"

So we looked up which tracks he composed for Sonic and the Black Knight and ended up accidentally finding out that:

None of the three tracks he contributed to the Sonic and the Black Knight soundtrack were actually original compositions, they were remixes (with VERY slight changes, we checked) of songs originally featured in Black Dawn and Adrenix, two games Tommy Tallarico Studios made music for back in the 90's.

None of those original tracks from those games were even composed by him, they were composed by Todd Dennis, a former Tommy Tallarico Studios employee.

We weren't even trying to expose him or dig deeper into anything, we were just trying to look up what was the music he made for Sonic and ended up finding out that the work that, according to him, warrants him the title of "first american to ever work on sonic" wasn't even like. Making any original music but literally just polishing up some decade-old tracks that he happened to own the rights to because one of his former employees composed them for two completely different games.

Like this guy's entire persona and career are built on a web of lies so delicate and multilayered that just by being curious about his work on Sonic we accidentally found out about two additional layers of mistruth we weren't even previously aware of. Truly the gift that keeps on giving.

Male character: I'm not attracted to women.

Fandom: Oh, he's gay.

Female character: I'm not attracted to men.

Fandom: Oh, she's a lesbian.

Any character: I'm not attracted to anybody.

Fandom: Well, we don't know that they're ace/aro/aroace. It's open for interpretation. They're not canonically ace/aro/aroace unless they specifically say they are.

Hmmmm. I wonder why we're so frustrated in fandom spaces. I wonder if there's a reason.

the inflection is exactly the same. I have been thinking about this for an hour. was this on purpose or is this just how people are naturally compelled to say these words in this order (via @biderverse on X/Twitter)

Arthur's lighter or as I like to call it the AntiDivorceInator!!!!!

Malevolent fans getting a season opener of their main character crawling out of a grave naked and trembling and covered in blood and then murdering someone is like winning some kind of award I think. Most fandoms can only dream of their blorbo being placed in such a situation.

I laughed so fucking hard at this
