One of the stuff I hate about reading Batman comics is that artists will drawing shit like this:
And swear to me that these are the waynes
if anyone has money to spare for donations, im forwarding more links for palestinian aid
CareforGaza is a nonprofit that provides direct aid to Palestine, and you can donate directly here
Operation Olive Branch is a document that lists evacuating families that need assistance, which gives information on the families, the urgency, and tracks the progress of their fundraisers
eSims for Gaza lists very clear instructions on how to purchase e-sims to keep them connected, they are urgently in demand
Mutual Aid Diabetes has channels set up for you to donate insulin and medication to diabetics in Gaza, as well as lists fundraisers for diabetics seeking to evacuate
please keep sharing and adding links on this site, please add more if i'd missed any, and please don't stop talking about Palestine.
"european shrimp racism colours" are a haha funny joke because its true (and you dont even know the extent of it until youve stepped into balkans) but see if anyone thought about it for 3 minutes they mightve come to realize what racism actually is and why it came to be
the racism we see it now in 2024 is fairly recent (couple of hundred years old) and has roots in african slave trade and imperialism and colonialism of a couple of dominant european forces; and racism is, as everything in society, a construct. and as everything, happens because of material conditions and class opression. of course europe has shrimp racism, your (white) neighbours who speak a different language and have salt mines or access to the sea or whatever are closer to you than africa is. you just need a reason to conquer them.
the usa, with the black slave trade, had no strong national identity in its beginnings - it was a bunch of people from everywhere that had to find a common link (whiteness); while europe, with long-standing nations, had to find other excuses for pillaging and opression that couldnt be rooted in skin colour.
later, as the society and politics changed, so did perception of white vs poc, which is why irish/slavs/etc werent considered white in modern history for a long time - despite the skin colour. racism is not cause of the opression, its a symptom of it, its an excuse, its not innate, its very carefully and purposefully crafted because when you tell your people that you really need to go exploit this country you cant tell them "hey we need to kill everyone here because of the economy", you need to tell them "they are subhuman obviously", until it becomes accepted in social consciousness
look like okay its really funny how laois is the weirdest one in dungeon meshi but if you just put him in the regular world shed just be an autistic transgender furry not anything insane but if you put marcille in the real world youd get victor Frankenstein but a lesbian
more lizard Cardassian thoughts... I think their scales have more warm or cold undertones depending on which region/continent they're from - also the male's back ridges are spikey when they're young and become softer when they get old

i’m laughing so hard omfg
oh god sudden thought
so as per various DC social media concepts Clark has a Superman twitter where he posts left-leaning but fairly safe & tame stuff e.g. happy pride from Superman. Clark Kent also has his own twitter account where he posts his actual opinion.
what happens if uh. what happens if he forgets which account he's logged into.
scenario 1: what's clearly an official Superman post pops up on some rando journalist's twitter and is noticed before he can delete it. leads to controversy when people conclude that Superman has hired this Clark Kent person to do his social media. Clark now has to deal w the fact that everyone thinks he's Superman's social media manager. employers at the Daily Planet very confused as to why he didn't tell them about his side gig
scenario 2: world wakes up to Superman tweeting about how he hates the police
Scenario 2: “world wakes up to Superman tweeting about how he hates the police” and then the Shazam twitter account starts agreeing with him and that’s how the world finds out that two of the most powerful heros both hate the police
Billy, seeing what Superman just tweeted: oh cool we're allowed to say fuck the police now!!
Superman tweets an entire thread with sources about how cops are NOT your friend, NEVER speak to them without a lawyer, here’s 50 ways they can legally screw you over for kicks, here’s a hundred examples. know your rights, etc etc etc.
it’s very professionally worded, definitely something that would fit on the professional twitter of an investigative journalist who has made at least part of his career exposing dirty cops.

Sometime later, Shazam tweets:
sorry for the confusion regarding my previous tweet. I understand that it was a bit vague
to clarify: All Cops Are Bastards

to me the funniest part of Laios is a character is the fact that he's genuinely really good at what he does. it would be one thing if he was just a monster geek in a way other people find really offputting, but he can also bisect something twice his size in a single blow
in this way, like so many others, he and marcille are secretly The Same
