a pope dies after easter and now everyone’s doing catholicism revisionist history.
ya’ll: “catholics never did witch hunts! that was protestants 👆👆”
maybe they didn’t do witch hunts in europe or whatever but they sure as shit tried to beat indigenous spirituality out of people in the Americas. oh and in Africa. and in Southeast Asia. on every continent whoops.
James Baldwin has an interesting quote, something along the lines of “you kneel at the white man’s cross and he gets your land,” i.e., you accept the colonizer’s god as your own (that he is the supreme authority, that his word is law) and that entitles the colonizer to your resources.
as far as im concerned the catholic church is the religious arm of colonization. for every plantation settlement in the Latin America there were catholic clergy there making sure everything ran smoothly.
the catholic church as an institution is just as complicit in colonization (and its continuing effects) as every other european nation who participated.

[from James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time]
#this was in my drafts but im breaking my silence#you give christians an inch and they take a mile istg#if yall wanna practice the religion you were rasied to practice then do it#but dont try to convince colonized peope tht the catholic church has been some net positive force in this world#net negative#net really negative#james baldwin#sca#i know we’ve lost the culture war when tumblr fags start defending the pope 😒

I’m just gonna rant atp but I truly cannot stand how mental health diagnoses have become popularized, to the point that folks think they can diagnose people they’ve never even met… literally not how it fucking works. Oh my god.

feeling bad.. and i don't think it's just from playing rummy..
#i don't like card games i don't like games i like it even less if i have to play with my family + i don't play usually and i didn't#feel like thinking today and i hate the combination of luck and strategy#and fucking counting. for the rest of my life i'm doing the least possible amount of math i'm not kidding#it's either that it goes badly because i'm stupid or it goes badly because of bad luck and both of those piss me off so bad#and then if it goes well that's just luck and i feel nothing.#net negative#plus the way my sister was acting and trying to teach me or help me or whatever. i get mean when i'm nervous like a bad dog#well i got mean#and i'm on my period so emotionally every day is the end of my rope already :/ you know what i mean

It is interesting that the American people seem to disagree strongly with Donald Trump on most cultural issues (transgender issues, abortion, race relations, and LGBTQ issues) and yet his single strongest issue approval is on immigration. The median voter seems to want xenophobic wokeness
#it's possible for him to score negatively on most issues despite having a net positive overall approval rating...#...because many of the issues that people currently value most are his 'best' issues (economy/immigration/crime/inflation)

love how the oc asks are mainly thirsting over nyoka, then there's some Cecil kissers (ahem) and Emilio...
I mean I love him as well, he has literally my favorite signature spell ever, but my instincts tell me not to trust that man
I feel like that’s appropriate for him also in universe.



#cozy ask#twstposting#he has a net negative of being twisted from a character who is too niche.#but also really unsympathetic to an obscene degree (even if i like the guy. i hate him but i like him but-)#(I wont get into it.)#and emi himself isnt that much better he’s kind of an ass lmfao#by design of course so im not really offended.#my art#emilio estrada alvarez#el segundo strikes again.#THANK YOU FOR LIKING HIS SIGNATURE SPELL I LIKE IT TOO#Mind tho that Emilio is more heavily a 50/50 ownership split between me and oddberry.#waaay more so than the other two guys.#(maybe its 40/60 with me having 40 idk)#But i dont think anyone really cares on the specifics of that? it gets confusing anyway.

One of your posts has been copied to youtube, figured you might want to know
https://youtube.com/shorts/DaXgExWtL1Q?si=CJtW0GqdR2L-idcb
Congrats? My condolences?
This happens all the time, I'm used to it. It's funny how so many people don't know what an incorrect quote is and think I'm stealing

psych ward au idea by @rwsdarw , la terreur flavored marinette belongs to @sillysiluriforme tweos flavored adrien belongs to me, we can make this shit absolutely radioactive


any connection these two have is out of begrudging desperation for human contact and not any like for the other as a person. in the beginning their only thing in common is their affinity for causing problems. and injuring themselves by accident let's not forget that.

oops i think they escaped
#psych ward adrinette should be messy and blur the lines heavily between platonic and romantic (if romance is even possible between the two)#and some third codependent disgusting thing#but we keep them together because subjecting their issues to anyone else would be a net negative for humanity#ml au#thewarmembraceofshadow#miraculous adrien#mlb adrien#adrien agreste#marinette x adrien#miraculous fandom#adrien x marinette#marinette dupain cheng#miraculous marinette#mlb marinette

there's this really deep belief in me that says I can't post anything related to ouro anywhere anymore & I hate it & I hate it & I hate it. I have so much !! to say :(
#ouroboros-if#just this enormous sinkhole in my stomach everytime i even think about talking about it anymore. ough#im getting so close to the finished thing but my brain is just EVIL and i have on numerous occasions just thought that i should dip and then#post the game in a year under another pseud HDBDNDJFKF#i am not normal#and at this point my experience in the if community is a net negative#it is what it is. don't look at me im being vulnerable#i hope everyday that it is not too late for this story to find its right audience#. i will be handing it over with a hovering kiss on your cheek and tears like thick gruel in my throat#i am trying so hard.#BUT IT FEELS LIKE IM FAILING !!!!!!

7 Sins Legacy - generation 5 (gluttony)
It looks like Gulshan is finally on the right track with the restaurant. It has gotten a lot of positive attention from food critics, and is now almost fully booked every evening.

say what you will about svu and copaganda but the consistently repeated theme that olivia benson was fundamentally born Wrong and the way the violence of her conception radiates out and impacts every single relationship she has. she cannot conceive of an existence that does not render her as an agent of justice rather than a complex person and it infects her interactions with anyone who is able to balance that responsibility. the way law & order manages to successfully recast the police as superhero-esque christ figures is genuinely incredible and like. even the way the show itself oscillates as to what her exact fate is episode to episode. does it get better? worse? can she ever prove herself worthy? is the past ever really past? is this thing she’s been justly burdened with her burden to carry at all? in the eyes of the Law. Our Father who art in heaven. i wash my hands of this.
#like idk it eats a little bit. it worms into you a little bit.#i try to avoid talking about cop shows bc i think very often they are a net negative and i have very complicated feelings about them#but i do like shows like law and order for the same reason i like shows like greys anatomy#bc fundamentally they are polemics. the characters are not really Characters but more vessels for a message#and that inherent conflict between the Moral Argument and the characters themselves is really fascinating to me#something about free will and pre-determined fate blah blah#anyways. olivia benson i love you woman who is somehow everything#olivia benson#law & order#law and order svu#law and order special victims unit#copaganda

Also if they were gonna be mad about bad breaking free all the allays (which i stand by not being an actually bad thing to do atp) then could they have least found a more fun result other than forcing him to rebuild the entire laggy machine that, as bad has pointed out, is literally made redundant by better grinding methods? like this is the most non-consequence ever.
#net 0 interaction#im not even mad im just like???????#just have to specify this isnt neg AT ALL#prodding cubitos with a stick “do something fun please”#liveblogging
