Uchiha Clan Supremacy— 🪭

#naruto #sasuke uchiha #itachi uchiha #madara uchiha #obito uchiha

Collins is gone.

Namaygoosisagagun First Nation/Collins has burned to the ground. The entire community is nothing but ashes after being quickly consumed by wildfires. They did not have any support from emergency services, and no one offered aid. The community saved themselves by escaping into boats because no one came.

Mishkeegogamang and Cat Lake have lost power. Families are ending up in shelters with nothing. Armstrong, Lac La Croix, Whitesand, Gull Bay, Lac des Mille Lacs are currently in the fires path and all members are being evacuated.

All this loss, all this devastation, and it was entirely preventable.

After steadily underfunding wildland firefighting and purposefully excluding Indigenous wildland firefighters and Indigenous wildfire organizations from wildfire operations, firefighter training, decisionmaking, and resource exchanges, in 2025, Doug Ford slashed the forest firefighting budget.

It's hard to ignore his decision to cut funding and leave us out of adequate fire training (even though we've lived with forest fires for thousands of years—far longer than settlers have been in Canada—and made sure fires like the ones we're all seeing today were prevented through kinisitotēn) when, despite making up less than 5% of the population, we account for 42% percent of all wildfire evacuations in Canada.

And when we are successfully evacuated, we face discrimination and racism—like Kashechewan—because it's always been easier to blame us than it is to blame the true culprit: denialism, corportate greed, and colonization.

The people of Collins and every other impacted community deserve better.

Right now, the AFN is currently accepting donations to help Collins First Nation. If you're able to, please consider donating.

ONWA (Ontario Native Women's Association) is another great place to donate to. They have outreach vans going to motels and inns and offering food, water, resources, and cultural support to those impacted by the wildfires.

I adore how each of the akatsuki are a different facet of grief/loss. And it goes from most literal to most metaphorical:

Konan: Loss of home; loss of a loved one. Konan is the most obvious representation of grief. A war orphan, she lost everything she held dear. She lost her parents and her village along with them. Her home was devastated by a war that she was too young to comprehend. When she was finally old enough to do something about it, she lost the first and only love of her life. Her actions and attitude later in life are at least primarily motivated by/explained by his death. The mission of the akatsuki is literally structured upon her grief.

Sasori: Loss of a family. Sasori's goal in life is to live eternal--never to die and decay like those that were most important to him. Sasori never recovered from the absence his parents left in his life. Much like Konan, he seeks to somehow remedy this absence through control. Just like she parades Yahiko's body around, he constructs his puppets.

Kisame: Loss of allegiance. After sacrificing everything he could for his village, Kisame had to directly face the self-serving nature of his superiors, and it was his first introduction into the sphere of political corruption. It's so tragic that he cared so much about honesty and transparency, and he never was able to extricate himself from the machinations of others, whether it be fuguki or obito.

Kakuzu: Loss of trust. Kakuzu was betrayed by the village he was brought up to serve. The village that he was taught to believe had his best interests at heart. After surviving a suicide mission, he was rewarded with torture and prison. Any sense of faith or fidelity to anyone but himself died along with the village elders he slaughtered in his escape.

Hidan: Loss of empathy. It was so difficult to come up with a pithy line for Hidan, but I think empathy sums it up pretty well. Hidan is, definitionally, a reactionary. He couldn't stand that his village was moving away from the traditional ninja-for-hire economy (for reasons that aren't relevant right now but significant in their own right). He sought out individuals and institutions that validated his ideology and turned to violence in order to restore what he saw as the correct way of things. He claims to be spreading his message for the betterment of the people, but he is completely blinded by his egomania.

Deidara: Loss of purpose. Deidara is so interesting because he doesn't have a defining "moment" in which he experiences this loss. His loss is instead over time, starting when he was a teenager and ultimately culminating in his suicide. Deidara has this unflagging need to prove himself as the most true artist to ever exist, with the purest purpose that most clearly aligns with what "art" is supposed to be. But in doing so, he burns himself out, not unlike a star that collapses in upon itself under the sheer weight of what he's trying to do.

Nagato: Loss of innocence. Nagato *is* the akatsuki. He's the figurehead, and as such, his specific iteration of grief is most archetypal of what "the akatsuki", as an organization, represents. Nagaato was also an orphan. And similar to Konan, he also began to believe in something better, until Yahiko's death. But while I think Konan focuses on Yahiko's death itself, and mourns Yahiko the person, I believe that Nagato focuses on what Yahiko's death *represents*--the unending plight of the most oppressed. He assumed the role of leader after Yahiko's death, and it was only after Yahiko's death that the akatsuki switched its focus. Would go into what I believe the progression of the akatsuki mission statement to be, but I realize I'm just rambling rn lmao

Itachi: Loss of self. Itachi really destroyed and betrayed himself for nothing smh. He was brought into the shinobi system at such a young age. His "prodigy" status ultimately signaled him as someone to be taken advantage of--too young to understand that he was being manipulated and indoctrinated, but talented and "mature" enough to carry out the desires of his superiors. And ultimately, he sacrificed his own values and became a person that was hardly recognizable from the child he once was.

I'm deliberately choosing not to include Zetsu and Obito. Zetsu because he is a part of the larger akatsuki conspiracy and is therefore outside of the general "mission statement." Obito because I think he deserves his own post. He is the foundation of the "modern" (post 3rd ninja war) akatsuki. And I believe that it was his losses that shaped the modern (post-3rd ninja war) akatsuki into what it was--and he unknowingly sought out people experiencing the same grief as him for his conspiracy-organization

"Guy" and "man" have different connotations with adjectival nouns. Like "tree guy" = arborist but "tree man" = he lives in a tree, or maybe he is a tree.

thedupshadove

"I know a guy" = "I have a useful contact."

"I know a man" = "I am about to tell you a story."

turtletotem

“He’s a great guy” = he is pleasant and fun and well-intentioned

“He’s a great man” = he has saved countless lives and changed the world irrevocably

*Stares into the middle distance* Anyone ever think about how a lot of normal/encouraged parenting tactics are also textbook abuse? Like...

Tracking (phone tracking apps are getting increasingly popular for parents)

Controlling appearance

Stopping a child from spending time around friends (grounding, taking away communication with people outside of the house)

Making a teen ask before going anywhere

And more that I don't have the energy to write out

The reason these things are considered acceptable for parents and abusive for everyone else is because youth are second class citizens who don't have the right to self determination

#spying on them (looking at browser history. reading their dairy/personal posts) #controlling the type and amount of food they eat #discouraging or trivializing their child's interests #feeling owed demonstrations of gratitude or affection

Hikaku after Madara made him clan head, left Konoha, came back multiple times to draw everyone else in his epic divorce and attack the village he co-founded, all while having to lead a clan in a village where the village head's little bro is spreading rumours about their magic eyes and its effects on their mental stability:
