good vibes for all

got bloodwork done with my psych to rule some shit out and it looks like I'm B12 deficient but my vitamin D is fine so I can't even make any good jokes about it *kicks a rock in the parking lot*

At least you can get this song stuck in your head now:

Because I circulated a call to action about it here that got some traction: to those of you who contacted Maine legislators when it counted, thank you— it worked. Maine just passed sanctuary-state-level protection for trans rights.

for me, the absolute height of humor is giving dogs human titles or positions, or acting as if they are fulfilling the tasks of same. if u refer to ur dog as ur secretary in front of me, i will be a grinning, giggling mess for the next hour. if u tell me ur puppy is “helping” you cook dinner by gnawing on soemthing under the table while u chop things, i will be delighted. when i read an article abt a dog being elected mayor of some town, i basically stop breathing.

because people are saying "germany has banned irish" or even "germany says the irish arent white" (literally please learn how to read): this is about the occupy against occupation camp for palestine in front of the bundestag and only affects the camp and surrounding areas. doesnt make it any better but the state or city have not just banned a language period and yes you can travel to berlin and speak your mother tongue

but why are they doing this? there are now so many protests and gathering for palestine around the city that the cops simply do not have enough translators to check if anything illegal or anticonstitutional is being said in arabic (and now in any other language because the protests are getting bigger and berlin is a very multinational country), but its not like they did only accurate translations before, they kept accusing people of saying things they did not say to denounce the protestors of course so its not like they are so interested in accurately following and representing the speeches and music on the camp site but its a requirement they got from the interior ministry for constitution protection nonetheless. they allowed arabic after 6pm that day because thats probably when they got to book a translator/get an arabic speaking cop on site.

HAPPENING NOW: texas state troopers are menacing a pro palestine protest on ut austin's campus. AN ENCAMPMENT HASNT EVEN BEEN ESTABLISHED YET

one arrest has been made at ut austin so far. protesters are seemingly boxed in on all sides. in a follow up tweet to this one, op notes students are attempting to dearrest the protester.

edit: after having posted this i found a tweet from ut austin's newspaper saying a second person has been arrested.

Hundreds of Jewish anti-war demonstrators have been arrested during a Passover seder that doubled as a protest in New York, as they shut down a major thoroughfare to pray for a ceasefire and urge the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, to end US military aid to Israel.

The 300 or so arrests took place on Tuesday night at Grand Army Plaza, on the doorstep of Schumer’s Brooklyn residence, where thousands of mostly Jewish New Yorkers gathered for the seder, a ritual that marked the second night of the holiday celebrated as a festival of freedom by Jews worldwide.

The seder came just before the US Senate resoundingly passed a military package that includes $26bn for Israel.

The thing is that getting Palestine free is both very difficult but not as difficult as getting South Africa free. South Africa had more resources than Israel does, it could hold out so much longer and still the apartheid was ended by people working tirelessly and boycotting and pushing for divestment and sanctions. These methods will work for freeing Palestine too.

I know it doesn't feel like there have been many successes, but all the politicians are feeling the pressure. Pressure that we are able to sustain and even increase as we come up with new initiatives and convince new people to join.

One of the reasons they're resisting our pressure so strongly is because they know that when we see gains we will push harder, we will continue to push until the stones falling becomes a rock fall and Palestine's freedom is secured. They know if we get a taste of the power we can wield we'll turn that onto freeing Congo too. They know we're unhappy and have been for a long time and their very secure system starts to look a lot less secure when we start mobilising to change things.

There's a bunch of adhd advice out there that's like "people with adhd tend to work better under deadlines due to the anxiety so here are ways to artificially induce a stress response in order to get you to get work done" and it's like well what if I don't want to be stressed out all the time in order to function

when i was a kid my parents bought me an inflatable doll of the Scream by Edvard Munch (??) that was significantly taller than i was at the time and i used to slow-dance with it and pretend it was my boyfriend. It had its hands attached to its head obviously so it felt like he was always a bit horrified to be forced to dance with me

i didn't need no imaginary friends i had Screaming Joe right here !

I love this website I love it when people tell us what's wrong with them
