too many people's support of fascism/surveillance/incarceration comes down to "well *I* am NORMAL and GOOD so these things would never affect me"

this does not apply if you wear exclusively leggings. Those things tear all the time you need like a million on standby

news media not even referring to palestine by name but instead using hamas as a rhetorical scapegoat and ‘front’ for the ‘other side’ of the ‘war’ i see you and i will not forget your morally bankrupt ‘neutral’ framing

as far as i'm concerned all gore is necessary

tbh the fact that cats purr was an unnecessary bonus we don't always acknowledge. they're already cute and baby and little and soft and make silly noises and do funny shit. but they also like to cuddle and make a soothing pleasant noise to indicate they are happy when they cuddle you? huge. huge for the human race.

Celiac anon I'm not ignoring you it's just I've got too much to do over the weekend to formulate an answer

hey, so i saw this post by @/palipunk [tumblr link] about a gofundme campaign to help someone evacuate gaza right now, with a tweet where the organizers are asking for only 250 people to each donate €100 to help reach the goal. i have almost exactly that and thought to become one of the 250 people, but i realized i could try to help stretch that money even further by matching other people's donations.

so, boost this post and whatever amount of money you have to give--50, 20, 10, 1 or less--donate it to the GFM linked below and then send a screenshot of proof of your donation either in a reblog on this post or in DMs to me, and i'll match it, up to $100 (which is a little less than €100 but it's what i have).

i'm hoping that at the very least we can get another person's worth of donations and double my original donation, maybe more if people keep donating through this post after i've sent all mine, but even if this post gets no traction i'll still be donating the full $100 within the week. there's nothing to lose, please boost to help Walaa Abusamra and her family evacuate gaza right now, and donate anything you can if you have it.

"people in real life: hey man how's it going" is a killer phrase. instantly neutralizes whatever insane discourse you find online. gonna start using that from now on

[Image Description: firstly for the record op's profile pic is the Ben Afleck (pale skin, short dark hair, short dark beard and mustache) looking exhausted and holding a cigarette meme, set against the bisexual pride flag (a thick pink horizontal line, a thinner purple horizontal line, and a thick blue horizontal line).

First Image: a meme photo of a medium sized dog with long brown and white fur and a long narrow snout. The dog is facing the wind, causing its fur to be blown back comically. The photo is edited to say "They weren't lying. That reading comprehension is piss-poor".

Second image: a photo of Taylor Swift (a tall white woman with long blonde hair), posing against a black background in a sequined silver leotard. In the upper left of the photo is a an arrow pointing to her that says "This woman is not queer". To the right of her it says "pls [please] stop calling her queer I can't keep living this way".

Third image: Ben Afleck again, this time his hair even shorter, sitting in a car and vaping, once again looking completely exhausted. End I.D]

all goofing aside I genuinely don't understand the urge to reimagine Taylor Allison Swift as a secretly queer icon when the pop music scene(TM) is like. literally overflowing with women who actually like women. Gaga and Kesha and Miley and Halsey are right there. Rina Sawayama and Hayley Kiyoko and Rebecca Black and Kehlani and Victoria Monét and Miya Folick if you're willing to get slightly less top 100. Janelle and Demi for them nonbinary takes on liking girls. like what are we doing here. like I'm not even saying you can't enjoy Taylor but why would you hang all your little gay hopes on her.

okay americans i gotta ask because as an European i grew up with lots of american shows and cartoons and in a lot of them there was an episode where they give the protags a doll or an egg or a bag of flour or whatever and told them pretend to be its parents or something

yall are pro mental illness until they hallucinate

yall are pro mental illness until they dissociate

yall are pro mental illness until they self-isolate

yall are pro mental illness until they're paranoid

yall are pro mental illness until they split

yall are pro mental illness until it's too Scary for your comparatively neurotypical brain to handle
