a message, hi, hello, to the predominantly white estadounidense community on tumblr: I hope it depresses you to be American. I hope you are realizing how much blood we have on our hands. Decades and generations of it. I don’t want it to make you hopeless and helpless and victimized I want it to make you ashamed and devastated and motivated to do something. Your tax money pays for weapons that kill children overseas and if you got a minimum wage job here you couldn’t afford to live between paychecks. What a shit fucking country. Are we supposed to accept this? Is this how you want to live in ten or twenty or thirty years from now? Do you want to continue to shoulder the responsibility of our great acts of “justice” and “mercy” and “intervention” on the countless souls who don’t even live in our borders? What can your own soul live with? Don’t we owe it to humanity to at least feel the gulf of guilt we’ve made for ourselves?

The number of times that the DSMP and US politics have crossed/influenced eachother/trended at the same time for similar reason is concerning at this point

a couple of dentist visits ago i was sitting in the chair for a few hours and i was in pain and not having fun but this was when i had just started obsessing over marvey so to cope i came up with a fic idea while i was there...
ive been having tooth pain again but i hate going so to cope again all ive been thinking about is this marvey fic idea again where hurt!mike has to go to the dentist so im gonna force yall to hear about it too
the gist is that yes even though mike is an adult, he hasn't been to the dentist in a hot second (ie since high school) bc he just didn't have enough money for it to be a priority
anyways he starts dealing with some general issues: toothache, headaches, sensitivity, disrupted sleep, etc. that just gets bad enough to the point where it's obvious that something is wrong
harvey can tell he's not functioning at full capacity: is avoiding certain foods, looks like he's in pain sometimes, and just generally seems more irritable as of late
eventually it reaches it's breaking point and harvey confronts mike and has to force him to go to the dentist cuz he's fed up (also cuz he cares about mike obvi but he's not gonna say that)
mike has general dentist anxiety (he hasn't been in a while and he's also definitely worried about the copay even tho i imagine this law firm provides dental insurance lol) but harvey’s nice enough to be there for him
anyways after finally going and figuring out the issue, mike's set up for a procedure (tooth extraction? root canal? idk yet), and after said procedure harvey has to deal with gassed up mike who's either woken up from the sedative or just heavily anesthetized
basically just harvey taking care of mike from then on, giving meds and comfort when the pain becomes too much after the anesthesia wears off. i just want harvey to be all soft and sweet with equally soft and loopy mike
i have hopes to write this at some point (my depression is kicking my ass rn) but anyone else is welcome to take inspiration from this! i encourage it cuz i'd love to see what other people come up with! <3

The most devastating thing about finding a piece of media thats becoming your newest hyperfixation is how little fanfic you find if said piece of media has a small fanbase.
Like yes there are SOME fics out there but I want specific ones that make me FEEL SOMETHING and there are barely any.

Hey USAdians
Do you want to contact your representatives about supporting a ceasefire in Palestine? (or anything else for that matter)
Are you not sure of who to call or what to say?
Go to 5calls.org and put in your zip code. It'll bring up a list of your representatives, their phone numbers, a list of issues you might want to contact them about, and a suggested script for what to say.
Most of the time, you're gonna get voicemail. Leave a message. Leave your name and full address so they count you. You don't have to say anything long, just say what you want your representative to do and then hang up.
If you really want to make an impact, call again the next day. And the next day. The people who answer the phones and go through the messages don't transcribe the whole message, they mostly just give the rep a report saying "You got this many calls for issue X, you got this many calls for issue Y." A lot of short calls makes more impact than one call with a long dramatic speech.
TL;DR IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES A LOT

This week, Maggie & Tim are joined by the one and only Kate Rogal (aka Kate Favor) to talk about Season 7 Episode 3: Lassie Jerky. An iconic episode might we add. You know, the one where Shawn and Gus help out two college students filming a documentary in the woods trying to prove Bigfoot exists only to come upon a few dead bodies...

I’ll delete this if it trends because I don’t want to face real life legal repercussions for this (like I keep seeing people be) but honestly as a lifelong USA citizen I really don’t think the US has much right to exist either. And I don’t mean this in like a “don’t speak out against Israel” way, I mean it in a “frankly we absolutely should be speaking out against the USA too, we’ve just built up a system where we don’t have a bigger empire to take us down”
