By which I mean a leather sling. A strip of leather with a cup somewhere in the middle where you can place a stone. To spin it. And thwip it at dangerous speeds into someone’s head.

Not what google thinks it means apparently.

sick of hearing about "healing crystals" that "cleanse your mind and body of negative energy" i want to know which rocks can hurt you and fuck up your vibe so bad

If you get a small smooth stone and a leather thong you can add “Davidcore” to that mix.

you know i have never heard a convincing arguement as to why AO3 should not moderate the content that is posted to their website and i think a lot of the arguement against moderation on AO3 boils down to, terminally online people thinks community moderation is the same as government censorship and personally sending the cops to someone’s house to arrest them irl/

There is a line between ensuring people’s emotional and mental safety, and allowing petty authoritarians to co-opt the idea of protecting people’s safety so they can police and dictate other people’s behavior. Like some kind of fanfic HOA.

If you don’t like it don’t read it. If you don’t like the author block them. If you don’t like the tag block that tag. If you don’t touch it, it does nothing to you.

So, there's a lot of USians around who are very clearly fucking fed up with their political choices this election cycle, and planning to sit it out.

And I get it! What's the point of voting if there's no one to vote for?

The thing is, I'm Australian. In Australia, voting is compulsory. We don't get to sit out our elections, and I'll be real honest with you - we don't exactly get better choices than you lot. So how do you vote if there's no one to vote for? You find someone to vote against. And there's always someone to vote against.

Now, we have the pleasure of preferential voting in Australia - We get to rank every candidate from 1 to X, and I'll tell you, there's something so cathartic about putting the biggest bastard of the lot at the very bottom of your preferences. I understand that USians don't get that option - you get to mark one person, and that's it.

That means that you get one shot, so aim it at the biggest bastard of the lot. The candidate you most utterly detest. Put your vote in the worst possible place for them. Don't even think about who that vote's going towards, that's not the point. Remember, every vote is a vote against someone. Make sure you fuck up that someone's election day!

Cults are not just a white people thing. Especially in the US, predatory high control groups actively target disenfranchised people, especially immigrant populations who don't have the best grasp of English, and entered the country with a head full of American exceptionality propaganda.

Again. For those who have not been listening.

You are not just voting for the president. You are voting for everyone they will put in charge of a million little important things the average person doesn’t pay constant active attention to.

Like this shit.

This shit ads up.

A small victory to celebrate for today

TIL In an epilogue at the end of the original 1931 Dracula film, Dracula breaks the fourth wall and taunts the audience, saying vampires are real and to be afraid. In a 1936 re-release, this was censored by the Hays Code, out of fear it would encourage belief in the occult.

They’re setting up to be able to call the election a fraud again. By purposefully using language that implies Trump is a guaranteed winner to people who don’t have the in-depth knowledge to know better, they’re making it easier for themselves to convince those people that another election was stolen.

They’re prepping for another Jan 6

This. This is what I hate about the “glorious revolution mindset”.

If a revolution was feasible, why jump immediately to the most violent and bloody option, and if it isn’t feasible, why insist on a hollow social gesture that ultimately does nothing but affirm to other people that you have strong personal beliefs.

This revolution shit is egotistical. It’s devoted more to the idea of leftism than the substance.
