the way people are inclined to believe jonah magnus who doesn’t believe in fate/bloodlines and who longed to become an immaterial extension of a fear ‘deity’ is more likely to be tory-aligned than og!elias who was raised to believe he is better and more deserving simply because he is a bouchard is honestly. very strange
stop telling people that voting doesn't matter stop it stop it
incremental change is frustrating and feels like it gets nothing done but it's how the american government works (for better or for worse) and if you get paralyzed by 'we need to revolt voting doesn't matter' that's one more effective vote for the fascists since it's one vote we lose.
I'd much rather have slow but tangible progress (or even just prevention of fascist progression) than everyone sitting around going 'let's wait for the revolution' when no revolution is likely to come while everything gets worse around us.
Obviously, still do whatever it is else to support the antifascist movement. Donate where you can (and do your research!) Go to protests if you feel safe doing so. But do all that AND vote.
nothing like taking a break from writing for work to...also write.
i now have 4k of maybe the most niche fic i've ever written (julie the reagan-hating waitress and the unnamed fry cook from this fall in love and also hate reagan together).
does it even count as fanfic at this point if zero canon characters have even been hinted at thus far? i will leave that to the philosophers.
it will ultimately incorporate a tiny bit of canon characters, i'm just not there yet
pls drop me an ask or a chat if you're up for a beta read! it would be a big help
it kind of sends me that even though they've been the main enemy on tumblr for like 10 years now people on here seem to have no idea what terfs actually believe????
This is relatively long (around 10 minutes) but I feel i must share this because it's a great starting point for everyone to understand the current political climate in the united states.
- If you call yourself a leftist, watch this.
- If you call yourself a conservative, watch this.
- If you call yourself a libertarian, watch this.
- If you don't care about politics, suck it up and watch this.
Everyone who finds themselves to live on the same soil that once belonged to the native americans who were so cruelly wiped by colonial forces, watch this.
After you watch this, I am asking you to share. Visit this guy's account on tiktok (@watchfulcoyote).
Don't let this be "just another one of those obnoxiously long political tiktok videos." Let this open your mind into something worth exploring.
Anyways, may all colonial and imperialist nations fall and may all their leaders burn in the pits of hell.
Free the Middle East, Free Africa, Free the Oppressed Peoples of the world.
