When labour was in government we had no food banks … because there were so few homeless we didn’t need food banks

Buzzing for a general election. Not so buzzing that every social media timeline is going to be filled with middle-class white girly pops saying 'Labour are no better' whilst the over 4 million children living in poverty in the UK right now might like the option of finding out xoxo

I’m really upset as I forgot that the UK is not park of the European Union so I cannot sign.

Fuck Brexit

Tagging this with gay fandoms sorry

There's currently a European proposition to ban conversion practice in Europe

If you're European please sigh it

in fics where luke gets plopped into the prequels i want every jedi within ten metres of him to think hes the weirdest jedi theyve ever seen. he has negative lightsaber form. he doesnt know what a kata is. he handstands when he meditates. his solution to sith is to try and have a chat. hes a political radical who keeps suggesting revolution. you ask him what the jedi code is and he says "kindness and compassion and helping those in need :) ". you ask how he used the force like that and he says some shit about how you are a luminous being limited only by your mind. the councils authority is just a suggestion. he is somehow the new favourite of both qui gon and yoda

Israel doing well in Eurovision is a completely predictable result of the boycott. The people who are watching & voting in Eurovision are now at best willfully ignorant and apathetic and at worst actively pro-Israel, meaning there will be a disproportionate amount of people willing to vote for Israel and even people voting for them because of the boycott.

But saying that means that boycotting Eurovision was the wrong call completely misses the point of the boycott. The point is not "Israel should not win Eurovision", it is "Israel should not be allowed to compete in the first place". The point of the boycott is not to give the EBU views or money, so if you've been boycotting... don't give them money or legitimacy by voting for someone tomorrow to prevent Israel from winning. If Israel does win, that does not mean boycotting failed; it only further delegitimizes the competition and confirms we should burn the whole thing down.

I think the reason Israel received so many votes was because the majority of the Eurovision audience were Israel supporters as many of those who support Palestine boycotted the voting and viewing of the show so the audience was majorly filled with those on the side of Israel or those who do not understand what is happening in Gaza

Here you go

"the white dragon bodes well for albion, for you and arthur, and for the land that you will build together."

Lmao I love that one fic where Merlin raises aithusa and just gaslights the kingdom and tells everyone that she’s a bird

Ohhhhh, tahts makes sense sorry I got defensive

My one Merlin fic pet peeve is that when it’s one that Arthur says ‘I knew about your magic Merlin, I have for years ‘ and Merlin is just … ok with that, and relieved Arthur isn’t going to kill him or be angry.

I always expect anger from Merlin, all the things he has sacrificed because he could not tell Arthur what he was, everything he lost, everyone he lost.

And Arthur knew the whole time, and did not tell him, it just seems that it would make more sense to be angry.

That’s just my opinion tho :\

I assumed that someone would share my opinion, I just didn’t want people to get cross with me, obviously it’s not just my opinion

Incorrect Quote

Merlin: I am not out of control I am a law abiding citizen!

Arthur: Really? Name one law

Merlin: Don't kill people?

Arthur: That's on me. I set the bar to low

Merthur touches

In medieval times, in Merlin, Arthur and the other knights slap each other, sit super close, and whatnot. Probably would slap each other's arses, if they weren't always wearing chainmail.

So, Arthur slaps the knights on the edge of their shoulders. But with Merlin, it's always close to the neck/shoulder joint. Can't quite keep from cupping Merlin's face and confessing his love.

Well, I think.

Obviously all their touches are deliciously unnecessary.

And Arthur always looks inexplicably (pretty explainable, actually) sad when he says stuff like, "we can't be friends," and that one scene when he thinks Merlin has feelings for Morgana, and he says, "she can't be your friend, let alone anything else," but it was contemplative and sad like he wasn't really talking about Morgana...

And obviously, none of this is especially revelatory—but it's sort of a eureka moment that there's all this fodder and the tidbits are titillating.
