On Negotiations
You have to be willing to live with whatever you propose during a negotiation. You also have to prove you are willing to live with this, or else the other parties might think you are bluffing.
So, when Trump attacks Iran and then negotiates with them, it's not a reversal. The attack was proof that the US was willing to engage in a hot war.

There are a number of ethical problems with the US alliance with Israel.
And it's definitely an issue without a good answer.
On one hand, a country that explicitly wants to genocide another country getting nukes is horrendous. On the other hand, war with Iran is not a preferred outcome.
Which is why we need to thank God that we had someone like Trump with the balls to do the hardcore negotiations needed to de-escalate this.

Why Mushrooms are Starting to Replace Everything
Specifically the Mycelium.  The technology has continued to develop, and it’s now an $85M/year industry.  Effectively replacing plastic and fibreglass.  It’s now even replacing fake leather.
But, it’s entirely biodegradeable and non-toxic, (fibreglass can cause major issues if you breathe it, or even rub up against it).
It’s also being used as a fake bacon, which I am ambivalent about.  Mushrooms are the only thing other than meat that provides all of the essential amino acids for the Human body to produce protein.
It’s also being used for furniture and bricks to build with.
And one thing that is a little Mankind Was Not Meant to Know, is using LIVING mycelium to control robots.

An example for why I choose my wording.
Pakistan broke away from India to make an Islamic state. The religion in charge of the state is supported by the people in the state.
In Iran, it's being imposed. Which is actually one of the main features of Fascism. The Ethical State. In a Liberal Democracy, the ethics of the state are the summation of the ethics of the individuals. In an Ethical State, the state has the ethics and imposes it on the population.

Iran is 100% an ideological state, rather than a nation state. Iran was an attempted worldwide theological revolution that only managed to get Iran. The local populous don't agree with their government at all, and when abroad will normally identify as either Persian or Farsi.
Pretty much every group attacking Israel is being funded by Iran. All of them.
Iran refuses to recognize Israel's existence, and constantly talks about wanting to genocide them.
Israel is an ally of the US, whether people like it or not. If they get involved in a war, the US is obligated to help them.
Both sides broke the ceasefire, and Trump held both sides to task for it.
Nuclear Non-Proliferation is an international treaty signed by almost every country, and is designed to stop any country that is not a nuclear power from getting nukes. People accusing the US of picking and choosing forget that is the US could choose, Russia wouldn't have nukes.
Just before the attack the IAEA found Iran in violation of Non-Proliferation.
The conflict is being called the 12 days war.

There's a number of commercial that you can tell are AI pretending to be celebrities..
But, there are also commercial that are extremely similar, but are because a celebrity has hit their nadir and is now shilling whatever they used to hate.
And then there are commercial where I can't tell which one it is.
Can't tell if sellout or AI.

Trump does this amazing thing called NEGOTIATION.
Which is apparently a lost art.
If conservatives are so concerned about muslim invaders spreading to western nations maybe constantly bombing them then importing refugees wholesale isn't a good strategy.

I hear that Samurai Jack has well Japanese to English translation technically for the audience but why on earth would Ashi not know the meaning of Aku's name which in Japanese obviously translates to Evil. I get her mother is an insane cult leader than brainwashed them to think Aku is good but dang, not knowing your own language. How did the Japanese dub handle that?
"The characters' dialogue is being translated by the show from Japanese into English" is what I theorize/headcanon based on the evidence we have. There's no in-show confirmation that IN THE FUTURE everyone's speaking Japanese. It's just what I personally believe because why wouldn't Aku force the whole world to speak his first language?
I don't know how the Japanese dub handled Aku's name in the cult. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I've found the intro in Japanese, I haven't found the whole show.
I can say two things:
1. Ashi was literally raised in a cave. it would have been very easy for her mom to simply never use the word "aku" to refer to anything except their god.
Just like English has other synonyms for "evil" (bad, wicked, sinful, villainous, etc), Japanese has synonyms for "aku" her mom could've used instead. ("warui" "yokaranu" "yokoshima" = "bad/evil/wicked"; "warumono" = "villain"; "furyou" = "bad/delinquent"; etc.)
Not that hard to avoid one word. If I met an American born and raised in Kansas who made it to adulthood without learning the word "evil," it'd be kinda weird, but I wouldn't say they don't know English.
2. In English, Aku's name is pronounced with emphasis on the second syllable, a-KU; but "aku" the word for evil is supposed to have emphasis on the first syllable, A-ku. And in Japanese, a-KU with the emphasis on the second syllable is a real male first name.
And the Japanese dub preserves the difference in pronunciation, as heard in Aku's intro monologue: "ware a-KU wa hengen jizai no A-ku no gonge" = "I, Aku, the shape-shifting embodiment of evil".
I have a much more detailed post about how Aku's name is pronounced here, including a link to the dubbed intro so you can hear it yourself.
So it could be as simple as "the cult pronounces 'Aku' and 'evil' differently—just like everybody else does." Japanese has a lot of homophones; so the name of god sounding almost but not quite like the word for evil wouldn't necessarily stand out.
But again—I haven't seen the dub. For all I know, maybe it calls Ashi out for not making the connection. Or maybe they gave the priestess a line of dialogue like "god's haters named him 'evil' because they're ignorant and they suck." No clue.

The guy in white is actually Indian!
This is Bishop Stephen Chirappanath of the Syro-Malabar cardinal from Kerala, standing apart in a sea of Latin red. That white and gold robe, stitched with the St. Thomas Cross on the back, carries a 2000-year-old Christian tradition that reached India in 52 A.D., before most of Europe converted.
The Syro-Malabar Church is the second largest Eastern Catholic Church with over 4.6 million members. It follows the East Syriac rite, not the Latin rite. It is fully self-governing with its own synod, liturgy, and major archbishop. This is not just aesthetic. It is continuity. A living Indian Christian tradition, older than many parts of Western Christianity.
As this image goes hard, it is actually very cute to know the reason it is going hard is because of an Indian in it.

Oh for fuck’s sake, people calling out racist writing in fanfic isn’t “censorship”. I say this as a fic writer but some of you need to get off your high fucking horse.

Every - single - part of the copypasta is based off a flawed premise.
You worship a cowardly and sinister god Christian. Christ has brought you nothing but misery and tyranny, and told you to hate your truest self and discard the pleasures that enhance your life. He has made you a slave and told you freedom was a sin. There are thousands of gods, and he alone is too cowardly to admit to his followers he is not the only way. Your world will one day perish. The slaves of Christ controlled the world for a time but that time will end and the old gods will reclaim their world. Your dear capitalism will be abolished, your nations will have no borders and your cities will have no police. Your suburbs will disappear and your nuclear families will fade. Your grandchildren will be queer and pagan and they will laugh to think that anyone ever worshipped christ. Hail thor, fist of the revolution. Hail Hel comfort to the oppressed. Hail Odin guide of the people. Hail Saga voice of the poets. The gods of this world have spoken to me and shown me the path to freedom. I hope someday you are no longer on the path of tyranny.
Bruh, one of my mutuals received this same ask, work for word. You think I'm gonna abandon the religion I gave up everything for, because of a lame copypasta? YOUR ancestors rejected their false gods, you need to do the same.
I was a pagan, when I was a child. I grew up in a pagan household. There's no freedom there. Real freedom is in Christ. Your beloved Norsemen kept slaves. Christians freed them.

Weiss: You will forgive me for my lack of understanding of the morés of the less well off, but is it still considering cheating if the partner is actively involved?
Yang: Can't you just call it a threesome, like the rest of us?
Weiss: Yes, well, some of us don't have quite as much experience in such endeavours as you do.
Yang: Are we talking guy-guy-girl, or girl-girl-guy?
Weiss: Again, you will forgive my lack of understand of the social morés.
Yang: Even if the guy is involved when his girl is doing another guy, he's still a cuck.
Weiss: And, the latter option?
Yang: As long as the new girl isn't trying to, like, humiliate her, or anything.
Jaune: That's still kind of sexist.
Yang: Even if you benefit from it?
Jaune: How would I benefit from this? What, am I a swinger, now?
Yang: *eyes Weiss*
Yang: Alright, how about this? I reserve the right to be turned off if a guy acts like a cuck?
Weiss: Framed as a personal choice, it is no longer sexist.
Jaune: What if the guy is uncomfortable with his girl cheating on him, even if it's another girl?
Yang: (to Weiss): Sorry, I tried.
Ruby: Tried what?
Ren: Personally, I am uncomfortable every time that Nora - encourages - me to find greener pastures.
Ruby: Why are we talking about sheep?
Ren: She encourages me to sow my wild oats.
Ruby: I thought mares eat oats.
Nora: And does!
Weiss: And what do sheep eat?
Jaune (deadpan): Little lambs eat ivy.
Weiss: And I still have not the slightest idea what we are talking about.
Ren: If at least one party is uncomfortable with it, it is cheating.
Jaune: Thank you.
Yang: And what if you want him to hold your head down to the girl's - you-know-what. I mean, you want him to, but you want him to force you. You know what I am saying, right?
Ren: It is best to speak with your partner about this ahead of time.
Sun: To be honest, I enjoyed my time with her, and while I definitely felt something, it seems she didn't.
Sun: *shrugs*
Jaune: Sun, not to be that guy, but why didn't you fight for Blake? I mean, you guys were in a serious relationship!
Sun: Eh... Not really anything I can do.
Jaune: Look, I'm probably gonna piss off a lot of our fans by saying this, but cheating on your partner is STILL CHEATING, regardless of what gender you're being cheated on with! In fact, it's sexist to think that cheating ISN'T cheating so long as you do it in a mlm or wlw relationship!
Jaune: THERE! I said it!
Ruby: OH NO! Jaune! You're being cancelled!
Tumblr media
Jaune: I TAKE IT BACK! THE FUTURE IS WOMAN! ONE PODCAST IS ENTIRELY ENOUGH TO CALL YOURSELF A COMEDIAN IN YOUR SCHNEETER PROFILE!
Jaune: (POP!) Hah... Hah... Oh thank god...
Ruby: ...Okay, Jaune might not be able to say it, but I will; cheating is still cheating when your partner is uncomfortable with the relationship. Either set the boundary or break up!
