Incredible the amount of abuse you take when you’re a rational human being and dedicate your life to saving lives instead of propagating lies and bullshit in your Internet circlejerk.
None of your opinions matter. You haven’t been in the ICUs with us this entire time fighting this fight. You have no conception of what this is like. Say what you want behind your keyboards, you’re a bunch of clueless irrational cowards and none of you matter. I’m not engaging any further.
I just assume all MAGA supporters are child molesters at this point because if they're not touching kids, their "guy" toucching kids wasn't a deal breaker for them.

When you understand that kids and teenagers being salty about literary symbolic analysis comes from a very real place of annoyance and frustration at some teachers for being over-bearing and pretentious in their projecting of symbolism onto every facet of a story but you also understand that literary analysis and critical thinking in regards to symbolism is extremely important and deserves to be not only taught in schools, but actively used by writers when examining their own work to see if they might have used symbolism unintentionally and to make sure that they are using symbolism effectively:
When you understand that a lot of the reaction against literary symbolism is because we don’t educate about symbolism as a communication form (people have historically used x symbol to mean y) and instead is taught as a fact (x symbol means y) so it strips analysis of any relevance to the world or other texts AND we don’t teach tropes/archetypes/genres from a young age so students are being exposed to literary analysis for the first time as 13-16 year olds and rightfully feel like it’s been made up
Delicious. Finally a good fucking addition.
When you become a teacher and you realise that the reason teenagers don’t like literary analysis in English class is because they’re forced to try and decode the ‘right’ analysis that exists in their teacher’s head and are spoon-fed small, language-based points that can easily fit into an exam answer because teachers don’t want to risk allowing multiple, sometimes imperfect interpretations in their classroom that might foster a love of reading because they’re too concerned with teaching exam technique:
When you realise that the system is set up like this because so much pressure is placed on exam results as the only metric of school success and frequently determine the amount of funding a school receives, which means that poorer schools which are frequently low-performing desperately double down on the teaching method above:
When you realise all of this is supported by a Conservative government because they haven’t bothered to read any pedagogical research published in the last fifty years and think that school should be ‘hard’ in order to ‘weed out the clever ones’ because they can’t imagine a classroom functioning in a way other than the shitty private schools they went to in the 70s:
FINALLY. ANOTHER GOOD ADDITION. DELICIOUS.

Finished this commission a couple nights ago! Had to do an Itano Circus homage while I was at it. Mechwarrior fans this is for you too!

If you think about it Battletech is far darker than Warhammer 40k. 40k is obviously science fantasy, extremely so. There are magic powers, literal demons, and eldritch forces. It is also cruel and unusual to the point of absurdity.
Meanwhile Battletech's horrors are mundane. Besides the main conceit of the setting, the giant robots, everything else is fairly grounded. Even the FTL is stringent in its implementation.
Battletech is so dark because it postulates that even if Humanity spreads itself across the stars, we can never escape the problems of the present and past. We will never escape inequality, being ruled over by so-called elites, the general population is strung along by oligarchs, corporations will exploit and corrupt anything and everything to turn a profit, a limitless military industrial complex that sustains a never ending series of wars that are fought over to see which inbred 'noble' House gets to rule over the irradiated ashes of planets that have been warred over for centuries.
Everything in Battletech is self inflicted. There are no intelligent, advanced aliens, ancient evils or divine powers. Humanity took to the stars and war followed us there. Cursed to fight and bleed ourselves dry forever.

Let's fund the country resisting a genocide, not committing one.
Ramadan is coming up and I can’t stress enough how much Palestinians have never got the chance to experience one normal Ramadan for 75years
You may not have been subjected to this, but as a person from an Arabic country, every Ramadan from every year there’s always headlines of Israeli iof soldiers or Israeli extremist settlers attacking Palestinians during Ramadan, especially Palestinian worshipers trying to pray in the al aqsa mosque
It’s happens almost every single year
Ramadan is suppoused to be Muslim people’s month of worship, of Baraka and it is very important to Muslim people
But Palestinians never ever experienced a normal Ramadan because Israel attacks them Viciously
Almost
Every
Single
Fucking
Year
And I will dare and say that Israel does it on purpose, it does it every Ramadan on purpose
And now, this year, with Ramadan being only a few weeks away, I doubt that they’ll have a normal Ramadan, not in the West Bank, and not in Gaza
All what I have to say here is that Israel will still follow this trend, something bad is gonna happen this Ramadan, keep an eye on Palestine during Ramadan
