#this man talks in language of gods

Man I feel like a lot of leftist activists would do a lot better to just use common fucking language to talk about things rather than dense academic shit that's only understandable to people with PhDs and people who spend 95% of their waking life on Leftist Twitter lmao

Like, you're talking with other academics? Great, use academic language. You're a social media account trying to interact with the general public? Don't say "decarcerate", say "find alternatives to imprisonment". Don't say "collective liberation", say "freedom for all". By GOD don't say "bodymind autonomy", say "the ability to have control over our own minds and bodies".

Yes it takes a little more effort to explain shit in common language but I promise you people will stop looking at you like you have two heads and dismissing everything you say as Woke Bullshit if you like, actually get on their level, goddamn it. Not everyone has the privilege to have a graduate-school level understanding of this type of language or spend so much time reading leftist theory that they can perfectly understand this stuff.

jigsaw puzzle time!

and check out the description on the side😭:

"One of the world's great novels by the master storyteller Charles Dickens. "A gripping tale of love and death set in London and Paris that brings to life the terror and excitement of the French Revolution. "It tells how a good for nothing English lawyer, the double of a happy newly married French nobleman sentenced to the guillotine, takes his place at the scaffold."

In one sentence this jigsaw puzzle box finds a way to insult both Carton ("good for nothing") AND Darnay ("nobleman")

...

also here's an unrelated puzzle because I don't wanna post it as its own thing

i wish my family actually spoke ga ta me and my brother when we were younger instead of just speaking it around us b/c i am existing in this weird middle ground between bilingual and monolingual where i can understand most of what they're saying but i cant speak it back ta them and its frustrating

like i know why they didn't wanna teach me and my bro it, when my family first moved ta america my mother had a hard time in school growing up b/c she didnt speak english so she couldnt talk ta any of the kids and she was lonely for awhile and they didn't want that ta happen ta us but. we were born here sjkfdskf we would've learned english anyway

idc if it would've been hard i already feel disconnected from my culture as it is, i just want this small part of it yk? its such a cool language too!!!!!!!!!!!! its so expressive and dramatic its literally perfect for me!!!!!!!!!!!!

i saw what you reblogged about chinese characters and. i almost cried. how did you pass. are you okay. do you need an ambulance.

I. I HAD SUFFERED SO MUCH. to be honest i'm not one of the best students in my class when it comes to chinese, mostly bc i skipped some classes, usually bc of health problems WE DO NOT TALK ABOUT HOW I SKIPPED ONE CLASS TO GO AND WATCH MAHIRU'S MV and uh. y e a h i had to do more assignments than other students so that i could get more grades and all of that.

idk if i've mentioned this before but our chinese prof actually wanted to have like. summer classes with us, like, not officially, but you know, she was just afraid of us forgetting everything because of the summer break and was like "so yeah, if anyone wants to go somewhere and just sit there and continue learning chinese, we can do that" AND I REFUSED. honestly, i love this prof a lot and she's very funny and her classes are interesting, but. please. i need a break. also that one classmate who annoys me the most you know the one btw she actually started acting even worse i just didn't tell you anything was the first one to agree to have those summer classes and she even continues to ask us if anyone will go with her AND NO!! LEAVE US ALONE!! (also sorry can i rant for a bit. so like our prof told us that we can pick any place, since those classes are not official and we don't have to actually go to uni, so this girl ORGANIZED LITERALLY EVERYTHING WITHOUT ASKING US and went "okay that's it we're going to the cat cafe i work at. that's where we'll have those classes. that's it." and when one of my classmates was like ".. but what if someone is allergic to cats" she just. stood there. istg if i hear her say something like "oh i just act like that because i have a hyperfixation and my hyperfixation is cats <3" LIKE?? STILL?? PLEASE THINK ABOUT OTHERS TOO???)

and also. my family keeps saying that it's okay i'm just a freshman (well not anymore but still) it's normal that i'm kinda bad at chinese but also. i spent like six or seven years learning japanese and i still don't know it that well so ;w; i just wish they would stop saying things like "oh you're so good at languages and all that stuff" like. i'm not even that good at english. come on. and also we actually had one class with our seniors AND THEY WERE JUST AS BAD AS US. i even was like "b-but i thought that if we spend more time learning, we'll get better-" and one of those students was like "WE THOUGHT SO TOO GIRL 😭" i will never forget how one of those seniors was like "hey btw i think i'm getting better at chinese" and our prof was like "really? :) can you write this character for me then" and he did it while looking so confident and i thought what he wrote looked really pretty and then the prof was like "please go back to your seat before i kill you right where you stand :D"

I so seldom post because I get shy (hence why I ramble so deeply in tags... I have so many thoughts but so little backbone). BUT I've been reading Batman and Robin (2009) aka Dick and Damian's Batman and Robin run, and my GOD. I came across a page from when Bruce finally returns from being lost in time, that was just BEGGING to be used in a web weaving post. I think I have to make it, I really do. Oh Brucie Baby, oh "What Resembles the Grave But Isn't" by Anne Boyer, we're really in it now

Iona: "ah, please, do take my malaise not to heart, for a terrible tragedy has befallen me... my love, my dearest partner, my most beloved companion... is dead 😔"

Astarion: "I appreciate the sentiment but would you please stop pharsing it that way"

honestly... i think chainsaw man came out at the exact right time. if this manga/show had come out even ten years ago denji/makima would have been seen as a completely valid ship. it would have been lost on so many people that she's manipulating and grooming him.
