😳wow bestie umm. That was kind of blasphemous of you?? 🤭 haha like kind of heretical even 💞
some of y'all didnt grow up as the person nobody has a crush on and it really shows
some of yall never have to deal with the constant doubt in your own ability to be loved to the point where you get second hand embarrassment at the idea of someone being in love with you and finding you attractive because you’ve been diagnosed with ugly and cringy your whole life and it really shows
the legality of parodies is so funny. if you take a bit from someones work without their permission its illegal UNLESS you make fun of them
amazing
Hot take but you can’t learn about paganism without also learning about white supremacy and how it uses pagan religions to push hate group agendas all over the world today. If you don’t learn about the connections between the two and how it operates, your ignorance enables white supremacists to keep on doing it and using it to recruit others. People in our community who do nothing and stay silent are literally a part of the problem, there is no opting out whatsoever. Divorcing the two makes the issue repeat itself over and over and over again.
It’s not hard to include this in your research and stay aware. It’s the bare minimum.

Spotify Premium ad: “Imagine playing music without interruptions! Infinite skipping! Replay the song you want! And even do it offline? No ads! Whatever songs you want! For a small monthly payme-” Me: *nods, turns off Spotify and turns on my MP3 player and does all the things they offer, but for free and with songs they don’t even have*
For those of you who might not know how to do any of this:
- To convert CD audio into mp3s, you just follow the steps here
- To play mp3 files, you download an mp3 player like Winamp here and away you go
- On mobile? There are plenty of free mp3 players for your phone available, too, so check them out
You don’t need to be tethered to an online streaming service for your music. Be free.
You can also rip audio files from youtube and find files all over the internet. It is far easier to come across great and lesser known music if you dont limit yourself to spotify.
Anyone know what app I can use to play mp3s on my android phone? Google play music doesn’t pick up my mp3s :/
do you think in the 80s y/n was getting sold to duran duran
Hate hate hate hate how in my adult life being anti-war went from being the majority opinion to a wacky fringe idea and I'm somehow not supposed to blame the democrats who had power over the military much of that time
I feel like the course of the Obama administration really mutated liberals. I might be wrong, but I feel like over those 8 years they went from people with progressive-ish ideals that voted Democratic because it was the closest to what they wanted, to people who got involved with insane tribalism where being a Democrat became An Identity and they started to project their ideals onto the party, no matter what the party did.
I think this happened because of a combo of two things:
1. Obama's very good PR campaign which made him and, by extension, the Democratic Party, symbols of undefined ideals (Hope & Change). I believe this was a very effective way to breed cognitive dissonance among liberals, where concrete examples of Obama tossing out campaign promises could be washed away with fuzzy positive feelings.
2. The unprecedentedly bonkers and horrendously racist response conservatives had to Obama. During Obama's first term I personally spent a lot of time constantly attempting to debunk nonsensical conspiracies around him which pushed me towards "any criticism of Obama/the Democrats is right wing insanity" that I had to unlearn as I became more leftist.
Absolutely. Obama managing to keep a progressive image despite abandoning all his progressive promises pretty much established an entirely new ‘reasonable’ set of standards. He so thoroughly normalized Bush policies that telling someone that we can maybe do better than 2008-2016 makes people look at you like you’ve grown a second head.
Also reminded of how his embrace of the drone warfare program helped kill the movement by satiating those who only cared about the lives lost if they were US military.
What we just went through with trump we had 8 years of under Bush and yet only 12 years later they are willing to sanitize, nay praise Bush Jr who was once the ultimate evil for 8 straight years just because he thinks Trump is a loudmouth. Bush/Obama era politics has solidified parties that were crumbling into massive sports teams: policy doesn't matter, strategy doesn't matter, corruption doesn't matter. Only wins matter and they can be gained at any cost.
Biden is doing with Trump's polices what Obama did with Bush's.
