#that and the fl*mes like please

[batsarebetterthanpeople]

It drives me completely fucking insane when people who are literally OUTSIDE OF THE FANDOM repeat the deranged conspiracy that Guz Khan got fired for Palestine support. Guz Khan as not said that. No one who works on Our Flag has said that. The only people who have said that were hiatus brained fandom types who were looking for a reason he got fired before they had the context of the 40% BUDGET CUT which was the actual reason he got laid off, owing to the fact that he was one of the most minor recurring characters on the show. Like you guys need to use your brains oh my god. Maybe you should go to an actual protest instead of making shit up.

[mad-voidling]

Okay I kinda get why some of you guys are Like That about the Judgements

[dandelioncasey]

Listen, i am aware that UP is a part of SMEN (which I will NOT be doing thank you kindly, I'm actually not self destructive to quite that extent) but this description reads like my character also has ADHD and just forgot to eat today, which, same 🤣🤣

[thedeafprophet]

i really do think about like. The way the princess talks about being 'raised' in the honey in Reunion and acts of it being a good thing really just fucks me up a little bit because

that was neglect! that was bad! that was active endangerment! that was horrible treatment towards a child! and the implication here is that she was raised that same way

and i dont know if thats geniuenly what she believes. or if its what she came to believe, and has to believe.

idk i have the inclination to go 'ha she was probably really creepy as a child too' but then i think about the actual reality of her growing up and its just. eugh. especially conjected with her adult actions of seeming to not want to be alone in what she is..

obviously none of it comes close to excusing what she does or became, but it paints such a tragic story.

[flamemons]

oh no!?

[uniquezombiedestiny]

what happens when passion becomes obsession? when the search becomes the hunt? the hunter, the hunted?

[gingerbreadmonsters]

I HOWL AND I WHINE, I'M AFTER YOU

[soup-scope]

This song is so Freelancer and Gavin coded

[selkiecoded]

What isekai are you reading if you don’t mind me asking?

okay... but youre not allowed to make fun of me... its called "50 tea recipes from the duchess." korean woman gets fired, gets isekai'd into the body of a duchess who is timid to the point of patheticness and everybody fuckin hates her. is like uggghh well i dont care if im hated as long as i have my special interest: TEA. and with her autistic girl swag (label pending) she makes both the society and her cold intimidating husband love her. 70% of it is her infodumping about tea to the delight of everyone around her.

[deityofhearts]

I think that protective male leads are nice but the line between protective and possessive are so often crossed and idk how many more obsessively possessive male leads I can take in so so sick of them let that girl have friends for christs sake

[warlordfelwinter]

making a list of all the items I'll need to complete my ambition and seeing just how much garbage I'm still going to have to collect like

[cheesey-rice]

Hmmm the drama I'm watching is losing me a little bit.

[thedeafprophet]

everyone talks like seeking is obscure and omnious, meanwhile i have like 5 different tags filtered for it to avoid it, and smen still ends up on my dashboard smh

Israel has cut water, electricity and food to Palestinians in Gaza. They are buying 10.000 M16 rifles and plan to distribute to civilian settlers in the West Bank to hunt down Palestinians. They're bombing the only way out of Gaza through Egypt, after telling refugees to flee through it, and have threatened the Egyptian government in case they let aid trucks pass through. Entire families, generations, are being wiped out and left to wander the streets hoping they don't get bombed.

Palestinians are using their last minutes of battery to let the world know about their genocide and are being met with a wall of "What about Hamas? What about the beheaded babies? Killing children on either side is bad!" even though the propaganda claims have been debunked over and over again. How cruel is it to ask somebody to condemn themselves before their last words? Or before grieving the loss of their entire families? When there's no such disclaimer to Israelis even though their government has shown over and over genocidal intent? Like who are you even trying to appease? What will your wishy washy statement do against decades of zionist thought infiltrating evangelical and Jewish stablishmemts?

Take action. Israel will fall back if public opinion turns its tide. The UK fell back on its bloody decision to cut aid to Palestine under public scrutiny. The USAmerican empire spends $3.8 billion dollars annually solely on this proxy war while its people suffer under a progressively military regime as well. News outlets are canceling last minute on Palestinian speakers while letting Israelis tell lies unchecked. Palestinian refugees are being targeted in ICE establishments and mosques are already being hounded by the FBI. France and Germany have banned pro-Palestine protests, while Netherlands and the UK have placed restrictions . You have the chance to stop this from turning into repeat of the Iraq war.

I want to do something but there's hardly anything for me to do from Brasil besides spreading the word and not letting these testimonies fall on deaf ears. I'm asking you to do this same ant work from wherever you are.

[mxnd-infxction]

think i mentioned this in an earlier post but my mom's tryna drag me with her down to florida (if it ends up that way) and i keep TELLING HER NO but shes like "erm well um uh have you considered [so and so]" like have you considered i don't care, and never asked to go down with you

i've told her over and over, it's either las vegas or atlanta for me once i finish college here

(and tbf we're a bit pressed for time because we're moving out of sc by next june and that's set in stone)

i told her today that i wanna move my career into the hospitality/tourism/entertainment industry and she was like "OMG GREAT!! YOU COULD WORK AT" blah blah fuckin blah, once again dont care didnt ask

"ouh atlanta is a high-crime area!!" no shit dumbass every city has crime

first of all not every single neighborhood is highcrime, itp is sure to be worse but i'm sure the traffic is worse. it's not like i'm moving to the n4k3d city in vegas or some shit like that (speaking of the crime, i wonder what her perception of atl is? the neighborhood i'm looking at apartments in is like on the outskirts of itp, it can't be that bad??? then again she's republican sooo)

ok end of rant i need to look at shit on zillow. will rant again l8r lulz

[srirachaz]

one of my favorite stupid things about the shitty c-list cdramas i watch (and tbh it shows up in some of the nicer quality ones too) is when a character has some kind of incurable terminal disease that modern medicine is failing can be easily remedied with...

needles. like acupunture.

i think it's bc authors know jack and shit about medicine and can't be bothered/aren't paid enough by webnovel sites or drama producers to research specific illnesses and their treatments but it takes me out every time.

it makes sense in like...wuxia or xianxia, but when it's a modern drama it fuckin kills me. bonus points if the "modern" doctors are listening to wrist heartbeats to diagnose things like literal cancer or if there are magic chinese medicine pills that are complete cure-alls, OR if the "modern doctors" are surgeons (of all specialities, obviously) as well as general practitioners as well as specialists as well magically being renowned experts in chinese medicine and/or are like...nationally known but anonymous Secret Doctors or Magic Doctors or what-have-you.
