in case you missed it, the US recently vetoed a UN ceasefire resolution for the THIRD TIME in 137 days.

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

This is a monument to the US colonization of the Philippines. The US killed at least 200,000 Filipinos in the Philippines-US war and US imperialism until now greatly affects the Philippines. The struggle for liberation of colonized peoples is one. I, for one, welcome this defacement, and would actually like to see it vandalized even more.

I'm pretty sure this would be Godzilla's reaction if he saw Baby Kong.

Also, I really gotta get used to his new design....

If you know the reference, you have my utmost respect

Did I scroll through a bajillion playlists on Joel’s channel, and procrastinate studying to draw this? Maybe?? Possibly? It was fun drawing this though! And if I may have spent a lotta time rewatching stuff from six years ago, welll nobody needs to know lol.

i love the tower princes. i love that there’s absolutely no way in hell that this friendship is even remotely good for either of them. love that they assuredly are making each other SO much worse with every second they spend together.

Honestly the story of mlp must be very weird from the pov of a random guy in ponyville, like one day a new antisocial librarian moves into town, and like a year later that librarian ascends into godhood and becomes the new ruler of the entire world

“letting the palestinians people escape gaza” to get away from the israeli military campaign against them when they have no right to return is population transfer which is genocide. biden’s plan that all the stupid liberals are praising is a genocidal continuation of the nakba. and it’s not like this is biden’s only option! israel is a us client state which the us is actively arming! biden is helping commit genocide

The Biden admin is quietly preparing to pressure Switzerland to block a bid to probe violations of the Geneva Conventions ― aka war crimes ― by both Israel & Hamas (+ others).

Today in “things you do when you’re definitely on the right side of history”…

As always, death to imperialism.

I forgot that people are finding out Joel for the first time on HC so this is the first time they’re hearing Joel has a Tumblr. Like ya should’ve seen him credit fanart he got from Tumblr in his videos that shit was more wild lol
