Anime studios need to strike next

Down with seasonal anime down with overconsumption down with every series regardless of how complex needing to be boiled down to fit into 12 episodes

there’s just too many shows

too many shows and they’re coming out at such an unprecedented rate that we can’t even fully appreciate them. and I KNOW that people are slaving away in unethical work conditions to make them, all so that nobody can even remember them, no matter how lovingly crafted or beautiful they really are

as a lot of attention and media coverage is going to the critical situation in palestine atm, i wanna make this post to bring some awareness to the devastating earthquakes that have hit western afghanistan (herat) recently. this past weekend over 2000 ppl died due to the 6.3-magnitude and another earthquake with the same magnitude hit the area again today.

the ppl are in dire need of financial aid since a lot of those had been cut in recent years due to the taliban taking over again. the wfp regional director for asia and the pacific said this drastic drop in funding (wfp had 80% less money for afghanistan than last year!!!) is going to lead to a famine and situation is looking hopeless. especially children and women are suffering these consequences.

here are some organizations that are working on the ground rn and are reliable! please share and consider donating, even if it's just the money u would've spent on takeout or an iced coffee today.

islamic relief and doctors without borders are 2 very well established nonprofits that always help out financially and medically in emergency situations in developing countries

visions for children - german nonprofit founded by two afghan sisters which sets up educational programs and emergency funds!

asiyah international - another german nonprofit that's running national and international aid projects!

srowzar children - australian nonprofit that's on the ground in afghanistan and always posting updates of how ur donations are making a difference!

one of the things that grates my nerves the most is "I'm white and I agree", as if poc need your white validation and your white approval when we're talking about our issues.. like you don't have to inject urself into the conversation. u can just quietly rb

[ID: two screenshots from Twitter. The first is a tweet by Apple Together (@AppleLaborers) reading “Calling all Apple worker and patrons! Tomorrow, December 24th, 2021, Apple workers are staging a walkout/callout to demand better working conditions. Strike funds are available for participants: https://coworkerfund.org/netflixapplefund/ Don’t cross the picket line! #AppleWalkout 🖤✊

The second is an image containing text reading “Don’t cross the picket line. We are Apple. We deserve a respectful workplace. We deserve paid sick time. We deserve protection on the frontlines. We deserve proper mental healthcare. Demand that Apple upholds its image with your wallet. Don’t shop in stores. Don’t shop online. #AppleWalkout December 24th, 2021.” end ID]

this gif is perfectly timed because it gives you enough time to read it, comprehend it, and still have this too-long-for-comfort moment of suspense before being punched square in the solar plexus

Thinking fondly about the entire genre of victorian hauntings that were "everybody who stayed in the house after dark saw weird shit going on for months until the entire structure suddenly combusted of its own ghostly accord" which abruptly ended as soon as we stopped lighting our homes with vast quantities of odorless gas

Local man very confidently says something that is scientifically false while calling others names for being more correct than him

I mean the article you linked literally says that you can still get and spread COVID if you are vaccinated. What he’s saying is literally correct, and given he’s urging you take further COVID precautions I doubt he’s anti vaccine. Maybe he shouldnt have used the R word but a lot of people are misinformed thinking that you can’t get or spread the virus if you are vaccinated, and he’s mad at that while informing them, which I think is reasonable

No. The article I linked says:

Two studies from Israel, posted as preprints on 16 July, find that two doses of the vaccine made by pharmaceutical company Pfizer, based in New York City, and biotechnology company BioNTech, based in Mainz, Germany, are 81% effective at preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections. And vaccinated people who do get infected are up to 78% less likely to spread the virus to household members than are unvaccinated people. Overall, this adds up to very high protection against transmission, say researchers.

That means the COVID-19 vaccine prevents you from getting COVID-19 and from spreading it to others. “Prevent” does not mean “is 100% effective at preventing,” and it never has. No one in any position of knowledge has ever used that definition to describe vaccines. If we used that definition, every vaccine in history would be ineffective.
