#btw I hate college

[the-ghost-king]

actually the most annoying thing about my coworkers (and in general, quite a lot of people) is they all say the right things to sound really progressive and like they're well read politically but the second they actually have to apply those learned beliefs they continuously fail again and again yet continue to act like they really are Those-Progressive-Thinkers™ because they want to be so bad they forget they aren't...

Hello, fellow dukhi aatmas! I am back today on time. I am super tired today. I was in college till 5pm today. I wasn't working per se but I am still exhausted. I am still watching that crime show I mentioned in my posts at the very beginning of the blog.

I am on episode 118 right now and I have realised that almost all the victims of the serial killings or ritual killings are women. In fact, I have noticed that 90 percent of crimes are committed against women. Be it assault of any kind, dowry deaths, serial murders, robberies and good old murder.

When will society realise that instead of telling women to be safe or not attract bad attention, they should be telling men (because most culprits are men) that they need to stop committing crimes. They need to learn to accept no for an answer. They need to stop being delusional. No, her just smiling at you is not a sign of her love, you idiot. She's just being a nice person.

I get these bouts of feminine rage when I see the atrocities against women. Casual sexism, misogyny, chauvinistic men, derogatory comments, objectification and sexualisation of women on a daily basis which is brushed off as a normal occurrence is so infuriating. It makes my blood boil.

Have you guys seen Bulbbul? If you haven't, you need to watch it. It is one of Tripti Dimri's best works - in my humble opinion - and also the 5th and also the best movie Anushka Sharma has ever produced. It is an excellent portrayal of a woman scorned by disgusting men and the society as a whole.

I think this is a lot for today, hm? Let us finish today's blog with a soft song.

HAPPY NEWONDERHOY YEAR 🍡

yall are about to piss me off by not having any PASSING basic knowledge of the way the u.s. military manipulates its recruits into joining by typing up one of your uninformed, unresearched, unempathetic, individualistic, unbelievably annoying posts about how 100% of the people in the military ended up there because they just Love America So Damn Much! they're extremely mature and informed at time of recruitment, they can totally leave anytime they want, they totally had tons of other avenues in life they could've taken, there was no rush at all to get income as fast as possible, and everyone in the military also totally is part of the combat divisions and personally enjoys being IN the military very much, big believers of violence. everyone in the military is shooting guns all day, that's how that works. they LOVE BLOODSHED. also I love the "amewicans haha" twang to this type of shit because you're actually TOTALLY stealing our Thing, which is turning systemic issues into Individual Issues. Instead of talking about the powers that be, it's so Personal Choice up in here. It's, "well you shouldn't have done it then. I totally wouldn't because I know better." you don't wanna talk about the military industrial complex as a whole, and you don't want to talk about recruiters, you just want to pin the blame on Specific Individual People one-by-one, as if they're responsible for the system that they're being ground up in. someone was in the military? bad person, no matter what. it's easier to believe that, I guess, than to acknowledge that Normal People (with high school educations) are manipulated and incentivized into joining a system that is Bad. at like age 18. but yeah no that 18 year old should have just been smarter lol haha anyway here are some screenshots for no particular reason

side note this reply of someone going "umm just get loans and go into a high paying field it's easy XD" as a direct response to someone trying to explain how most americans joining the military are being funneled in that direction out of a need for money.

and another person who Decided that americans join the military just CLENCHING their teeth thinking of other people, and not thinking completely selfishly about their own selves and their own income/housing/healthcare.

Anakin as Obi-Wan's Campaign Manager?? Say more right now please!

correction - anakin (19yo) as obi-wan (35yo)'s nonconsensual campaign manager

here's a bit more! all just set up, i have no idea what i want out of this fic yet word-count wise. structure wise. etc.

The Kenobi thing happens accidentally, honestly. Anakin isn’t even sure how he got into it, but at the end of September, Padmé had mentioned how formative canvassing had been to her own political outlook, how impactful it had been to help out on a campaign, and Anakin had thought—that’s it. I can do that, and then she'll see we have things in common and then she'll fall in love with me. And that night, he’d gone to his apartment and researched upcoming local elections. He’d found the list of people running for the city council, and he’d chosen one at a random. Obi-Wan Kenobi was thirty-five and up for re-election. He’d first been elected four years ago, at thirty-one, one of the youngest city councilmen in the history of Coruscant, running—as far as Anakin could tell—on the issue of city infrastructure and misuse and diversion of funds away from public goods like pothole-less roads to drive on. Even just reading the summary on the guy’s past campaign had been boring as hell, but he’d won, is the thing. He’d won, which means he has a good shot of winning it again, which would make it incredibly easy to help him along. Not many people vote in city council elections—fact. Not many people vote for names they don’t recognize, and they have a higher chance of recognizing an incumbent’s name over a challenger’s—fact. It’s only impressive to canvas for a campaign if the guy you’re canvassing for is elected—fact. So Obi-Wan Kenobi was a safe choice. A stellar choice. Anakin hit the books that weekend, printed out a bunch of blurbs on what the guy’s done—apparently it’s been mostly advocating for filling in potholes on what Anakin would bet his tuition money on is the guy’s commute to work—and hit the streets to drum up support for him. The election is in the middle of November, and today is October 2nd. Half the doors Anakin knocks on remain unopened, a fourth are closed in his face, and the remaining percentage are either not registered to vote or seem lukewarm to the idea of voting in a city council election at all. Three different elderly ladies have asked him if Kenobi is running for president. Hell, next time he’s just going to say yes. —--------- But Ahsoka isn’t wrong. Anakin hates to admit it, but he knows he has to. She’s not wrong. Something needs to change in his strategy because he’s not getting the numbers he needs. Honestly, this whole adventure has made him lose faith in the effectiveness of democracy. Maybe dictatorships aren’t so bad. It’s not like these people are voting anyway. He’s smart enough to keep this observation to himself, of course, but he wonders what could have been so eye-opening about Padmé’s time canvassing when Anakin’s having a hard enough time making this whole thing door-opening.

we need more ford haters in this fandom. this dude is a fucking loser. it has nothing to do with him being a nerd, and everything to do with him being a borderline narcissist who has ruined the lives of every single person he's come in contact with

Hello dukhi aatmas, it's me, your friendly neighborhood lazy cat. I had the worst week of my life this week. The urge to just end everything is strong right now but we must go on. There are a lot of things I want to see in the future so I must be brave. There is a lot to say about today but I am not in the mood to talk about it so I am gonna leave a song recommendation to make up for it.
