Anymore, online, I want to address the "Don't talk politics anywhere online" like the meme:

"Blocked." "Hey, unblock me, I have something important to tell you." "Unblocked." "BITCH."

It really is 2003 again Jesus Tapdancing Christ.

Like, all Republicans did was replace Iraq and gay people with Iran and trans people.

The most stupid thing I've seen in my time online is the current "Don't talk about politics anywhere."

"Don't talk about I-rael - it's antisemitic, don't talk about Gaza - you're Hamas, don't talk about ICE - what do you have to worry about if you're white, don't talk about--"

It seems no one gives a flying fuck whether or not we survive this, just that we don't dare talk about it.

Doesn't anyone get how wildly dangerous and terrifying this whole thing is? How Orwellian? How it all smacks of fascism? Idk about you but I can name off several family members who fought AGAINST fascism and I'm not about to start rolling over and playing dead for them.

Maybe it's just me, too many protests, too much abuse hurled at me from people who wouldn't want that thrown at their children or grandchildren and I'm ready to snap at the next person who does because I'm tired of placating morons in red hats and idiots online.

I've reached my limit.

THE ENTIRE WEST IS AT RISK OF BEING PUT UP FOR SALE AND I AM BEGGING YOU TO CALL YOUR SENATORS

Trump’s budget bill has many, many things in it, but buried amongst it is the MILLIONS OF ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND FOR SALE.

This is the entirety of the Arizona state forests, the entire Cascades mountain range. Swathes of pristine desert around the national parks in Utah. On the doorstep of Jackson Hole.

THIS BILL IS BIG, BUT IT CAN BE AMENDED AND ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT PASS AS IS please.

If you have ever enjoyed the wilderness, we stand to lose it all forever.

CALLING your senators - NOT JUST IN THE WEST. ALL SENATORS, is CRUCIAL.

Outdoor alliance has a great resource for reaching out.

I don’t have a huge following but please, everywhere I have ever loved, the forests I grew up playing in, the land I got married on, is all at risk and I am begging.

EDIT: I HAVE ADDED A LOT MORE INFORMATION IN A REBLOG THIS MORNING, WOULD APPRECIATE YOU CHECKING OUT THIS VERSION!!!

Baby Trump do do do.

I survived the No Kings protest in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania yesterday. The energy was amazing: a beautiful display of humanity, with American flags, Pride flags, and so loud, we drowned out an 18-wheeler's airhorn, lmao.

But definitely with a somber undertone after what happened in Minnesota and continues in LA.

Over 11 million strong.

And Trump's parade was not only a total, absurd flop... IT POURED RAIN.

[varinsson]

STILL HERE.

[varinsson]

I'm posting this bit now since tomorrow seems like it'll be absolutely crazy:

My father and I are planning to attend one of the local No Kings protests in my area (Chambersburg, Pennsylvania) and we're planning for this to be the toughest one yet. Not for us to attend but in the sense of resistance that we constantly encounter.

We've already had multiple hecklers, been cussed out and the idiots with the lifted trucks that belch black out the back have tried smoking us out. Others have had signs ripped from their hands, been assaulted, etc.

But this one has direct threats.

And this one has unlawful arrests.

And this one has a birthday "parade" for a lunatic with a god-complex that needs to be removed from office.

While the plan is to remain as peaceful as we possibly can, the events of the past several days show that isn't a guarantee in any way. We're meant to divert attention from DC because, well, you can't police a thousand tiny cuts that well.

So, if you can spare the thoughts, prayers, well wishes, whatever for the safety of everyone tomorrow, that would be grand. I pray that the entire thing goes off without a hitch... but in the case it doesn't:

We were peaceful.

We were nonviolent.

If there was anything to the contrary of the above, we were pushed to defend ourselves. We have that right still.

Don't watch 47's stupidity on TV.

Remember that not everyone in the US is with Trump.

Jeg er livredd, men jeg må gjøre dette, vi må gjøre dette. Jeg må kunne si at jeg gjorde mitt beste i møte med fascismen.

What I got: M!Eivor with the red Celtic hair/beard + Raven Clan full helmet with cheekguards.

What I wanted: M!Eivor with the red Celtic hair/beard + just the spectacled helmet, no cheekguards.

Not to mention, this game doesn't do eye-tracking correctly so when you draw a bow, the eyes don't match.
