…psychiatry assumes that society does not cause distress in biologically normal people, who are considered biologically normal at least in part because they are economically productive. This assumption permits the conclusion that if a person is distressed to the point of unproductivity, it is because that person—not society—is abnormal. Thus, psychiatry’s commitment to biological essentialism not only masks the role of the constructed sociopolitical environment in creating distress but depoliticizes it by characterizing that allegedly irrational distress as induced by biological abnormality.

tumblr needs to implement a feature where if someone makes a post about women and you try to make it about men in any way it immediately deletes your account and IP bans you and every device you own that connects to the internet explodes

I reference this literally every time I'm at a bar because I somewhat convinced I saw it in a tumblr post somewhere but I have been informed that this is not in fact a known tumblr post in circulation and I was shown a prophetic vision at some point leading me to form the dichotomy from first principals

Everyone's all "ohhh 2026 bring back physical media" until I start talking illuminated manuscripts and then suddenly we're not on the same page anymore

[shredsandpatches]

Well, with illuminated manuscripts it's standard to use foliation rather than pagination, that might explain it

50 years from now, veganism will be normal.

50 years from now, being vegan will be so easy and accessible that it will be completely natural for most people to eat mainly plant-based.

50 years from now, the impact animal products have on the environment, our health and our wallets will be a much bigger obstacle than buying vegan products.

50 years from now, most people will recognize the pain we have inflicted on our neighbours.

50 years from now. im sure of it.

just a bit longer.

ultimately the best way to prevent abuse is to organize society in such a way that everyone's needs are met wothout having to rely on a parent or employer or boyfriend or any one individual. obviously wont stop, like, manipulation or so on, but the ability to dangle basic needs over someone's head is one of the most powerful and consistant tools of abuse out there. if someone is able to just leave, and know that they will have access to food and shelter and clean water and education, that will enable so, so mamy victims of abuse to do just that.

Nothing in the world feels as unjust as the fate of the Disco Elysium developers.

Imagine you build this in-depth fictional setting over the course of decades with your friends, and then decide to turn it into a game for fun. You end up creating one of the most celebrated and well-written RPGs of all time and become celebrated for reviving a dying genre.

A few months later, you're fired from the company you founded for criticizing the new direction its taking. The company has the copyright not only to the game you made, but literally everything in the world of the game, which spans decades of lore you built for no profit with your group of friends.

Like, this is a nightmare that I didn't even know existed before I ran into it. To have, what is essentially a passion project that branched off from a TTRPG campaign, be pulled from your hands by a corporate entity that only yearns to abuse your creation for maximum profit. I couldn't imagine myself going on creating anything after that.

Isaac Chotiner interviews a former Biden-Harris official who tries to sell him on what a great job the Biden-Harris administration did with Gaza, which goes a little awry when the Biden-Harris attempt to rewrite history hinges on "we did a good job only getting the right children killed, not the wrong children".

Time Lapse of the Land Taken From Native Americans

via reddit

[jisdu-tsalagi]

I will reblog this EVERY GODDAMN TIME so people can understand how the US government taking more and more land from Natives is nothing new (even the land originally promised after being kicked off their original, sacred lands) and they NEED to be fucking stopped. They need to be held accountable for the destruction of our people not just then but also now.

Honestly this percentage is even higher than I expected. This is such a clear indicator of how much the democratic party have utterly alienated their base

[rui-cifer]

I have been saying this since Nov. 8th, 2024. Chiefly, that my entire analysis for Democrat victory rested on my assumption that the USA's electorate, even the Dems, were a bunch of self-centered hogs that would overlook Gaza in favor of domestic concerns but I was proven wrong based on where I saw the change in voting patterns. I was told that this analysis was "cope," but turns out, when you allow yourself to honestly analyze why you're wrong, you can often come to the right analysis!
