they shouldn’t make u keep having appointments for medication. it should be like hey do these drugs work for u? yeah? okay cool u can have them for the rest of your life unless u reach out for a change. but no. every couple of months it’s like sing your song and do your dance for us little monkey if u want to keep the meds that make you live. if u want your brain to continue to work u have to prove that it works. and pay us money to probe it. what ever man. whatttt ever. can i just tell u i’m fine and u don’t need to worry abt anything and get my prescriptions refilled

Lil nas x getting charged with 3 counts of battery against a police officer and resisting arrest as a black man going through a mental health crisis where the police approached aggressively and tackled him to the ground is depressingly par for the course for police and specifically the lapd and it should piss people off and instead people are making jokes about it in instagram comments :/

I love when DS9 shoves a character in unnecessarily so the actor can get residuals. There're a lot of good examples but my favorite is in Destiny when Bashir walks by and just says "Morn got food poisoning today." Then disappears for the rest of the episode.

IPC formally declared famine in Gaza

Israeli article shows internal IDF documents confirm at least 83% of Palestinian casualties are civilians, making the civilian to combatant casualty ratio equivalent only to that of genocides such as Rwanda or Srebrenica and taking it far outside former conflict ratios

Previous State Spox Matthew Miller admits Netanyahu told them the war would go on "for decades" and that he had known Israel was the primary obstacle to the ceasefire negotiations for the past two years, despite publicly blaming Hamas for not accepting ceasefires

these are all things that we already knew, things i have repeatedly fought with users here on, things that are being confirmed now that it matters less

i feel like an often overlooked downside to 10-episode seasons and the death of the "monster of the week" format is that we get way less whump variety nowadays. used to be that there'd be dozens of opportunities for your fave to get punched or kidnapped or hypnotized or what have you. these days if it doesn't fit into the main plot, it just doesn't happen. this is a tragedy. we should be protesting.

the world gets a lot easier when you learn to be wrong without getting pissed or doubling down. saying, ‘you’re right, that makes sense, I was misinformed, thanks for telling me’ instead of going to war over something your ego’s latched onto will save you time, energy, and the embarrassment of sounding like a whiny little bitch

Its crazy how many good books there are

[snakeslide]

It is still sooooooo fucking funny that tumblr, the "fuck that old man" website, the villain apologist website, AND the paranormal boyfriend website read Dracula and went "Count Dracula sucks, we hate this dude." Planetary alignment levels of unlikely.

after a lifetime of hearing about aragorn but not reading the books or watching the movies, genuinely nothing could have prepared me for his actual introduction. the hobbits picked this man out of a dumpster. he is a textbook softspoken angst prince and he is covered in dirt and he probably smells so bad. he’s the coolest man alive and is so casual about it. his number one skill is Knowing Where They Are and his number two skill is Having A Horrible Destiny That Torments Him. tolkien got it in one i’m afraid aragorn son of arathorn you are the guy of all time
