cant get more fascist police state than snipers on rooftops overlooking peaceful protests.

this is what democracy looks like.

also the way that the nimona movie showed that hate is a taught behavior?? the way that gloreth, the hero worshipped for slaying monsters, was fully accepting of nimona until her mother told her what to believe? until that generational bigotry was passed down? the way the director’s motive wasn’t even power like most evil government figureheads in media, but rather a fear of monsters destroying the kingdom because that hate had been instilled in her too, like it had in gloreth? the way ballister was also indoctrinated into hatred of “monsters” until he was just as outcast as one? because only then was he willing to change and learn?? and how even people with good hearts and good intentions like ballister and ambriosius and even the queen herself are still capable of perpetuating bigotry and unnecessary violence when they don’t take the time to understand or learn about the “others” they supposedly hate????????? i need to lie down

"This is Bob. Bob sits on the porch and meows very early every morning until I go out and fill food bowls. Some days Bob taps on the door with his paw so I will move faster. Bob is NOT my cat. I don't have a cat. Bob is feral and doesn't let me touch him....yet. I am only allowed to feed him."

THE MOM IS RIGHT. DONT GET RID OF PHYSICAL MEDIA. YOU WILL REGRET IT. YOU WILL REGRET IT. DONT LET SPOTIFY CONTROL YOUR POSSESSIONS

The mom is absolutely right. Also, I can tell just from this one shot that they have enough room for them. This isn't a studio apartment situation.

I still have all my copious piles of Tori Amos bootlegs and b-sides, and just... piles of others.

Even Spotify can randomly just restrict content for whatever reason

Heres a screenshot of a remix album by a artist I really like that I’ve been listening to for years then all of a sudden Spotify gives me this prompt

With companies keeping content digital only then dropping it with no prompt, physical preservation is important

environmental storytelling

Saw a post about working class butches in physical labour jobs and wanted to make my own, so: I love you butches who do childcare or early education. I love you butch nurses. I love you butch house cleaners and janitorial staff. I love you service industry butches. I love you butches who do sex work. I love you working class butches who do “feminine” jobs you are cool as hell

btw! I was made aware that many people don't know that we're boycotting Eurovision this year, so.

we are boycotting Eurovision, as per BDS guidelines.

don't watch the stream, don't engage with the videos, don't post it about it on social media using hashtags that are going to trend.

had a conversation at thanksgiving last night that basically boiled down to my grandmother saying “if you don’t love dolly parton, you’re a communist,” to which i could not help but reply, “i know so many communists and every single one of them loves dolly parton.”

denis villeneuve just announced that they're changing the design of the dune logo for the second movie. here's the rough draft

you came back wrong and i am racked with guilt because i cannot bear to see you like this and i should have let you rest. i loved you so much that i defied death itself but i do not think either of us are happy

this is what microwaving leftover pizza feels like

stop it i was trying to be gothic

no i dont think so

getting denied for top surgery after my cat sends a concise and compelling email to the doctor explaining that if she cant step on my tits 24/7 she might get bored or maybe even have to stand somewhere else

I need to be kidnapped by kind aliens who take me to the alien vet and they know exactly what's wrong with me and they cure me and feed me nutritious meals
