ngl i kinda hate the woke 2.0 and friend that's too woke "jokes" because any bigotry that is normalized enough will have you get dismissed as "the friend that's too woke" for calling it out. like i've seen people called wokescolds and shit for saying it's bad to use mental disorders as an insult. it's basically a way to tell you that it's ruining the optics to point out bigotry or to justify being bigoted since it's to the "right targets"

[krookiecookie]

also it's so unfortunately ironic how racism is downplayed in these ways when the term woke is literally AAVE that got bastardized

[krookiecookie]

being woke is just an aesthetic for so many people and you can really see it in their worldview

one of my friends in a discord server was talking about how they were nervous about their first scheduled acupuncture appointment. another friend offered to do a tarot reading for them. sent this picture.

i kind of love the names benvolio and malvolio bc the etymology implies that malvolio is benvolio's waluigi

I do think it's helpful to remember that most of the USA is way hotter than Europe and that's part of why we like big bevvy so much. We aren't just hedonists, we're also too fucking hot!!

(disclaimer that this post looks like it has History behind it [by which i mean i assume a previous post prompted it] but we haven't seen any context if it exists, sorry if i miss the mark with my comment due to that)

no cause i speak as a european, big beverages started making SO much more sense now that like. well one, shit's getting warmer bc of climate change, and two, our own heat tolerance is getting worse, in no small part because of the meds we're on. and, honestly dude, even if it WAS just hedonism, i basically always end up wanting more beverage when i finish mine, even in large sizes, so like. i'm with y'all on this one, big beverages fuck

For real!! It's all "why do you need a drink that big" but when it's 95F/35C and cloudless sometimes you just gotta replace your blood with two liters of cherry coke.

the thing about being bullied for being weird as a kid is that even if you've always embraced being weird your brain is still always looking for the line where it's too much. you can be as proudly and intentionally weird as you want and you can love being weird but your mind is still convinced there's a point where you get too weird and people start treating you like a weird looking bug again. also it feels like you reach that point 500 times a day even if everyone you've spoken to today found you pleasant and likable and even if you're completely alone in your house with nobody looking at you at all.

the one recurring fat character in the boys is a fascist sex pervert whose power is having an expandable dick. sometimes i kinda fucking hate this show

[pocket-deer-belly]

the fucking "every evil character on this show is a freaky sex pervert who has weird kinks" thing feels like an accident, it feels like they wanted to include characters having sex in fun/funny ways and there's slight nods to that with the main characters, it feels like an oversight at best. but consistently every fat man on this show is a fascist, a misogynist, etc. it feels a lot more pointed and less like an oversight. the boys implicitly typecasts fat men as misogynists who can't have sex "normally" and their lack of sexual normalcy lends them to fascism.

personally I am of the opinion that vegans who are like “the way our food system currently works under capitalism on a large scale is exceptionally cruel to all animals including humans and is not sustainable, so I’m doing what I can to make the most ethical choices available to me about what I eat and encourage others to do the same” are generally very reasonable people who I agree with in spades. but vegans who seem to think human beings are not themselves animals who are ultimately also part of the food chain but instead some kind of other paternalistic higher entity that can never engage in ethical and sustainable hunting practices (and especially the fringe I’ve seen who think other carnivorous animal predators are also evil and need to be eliminated) are people I regard as foolish at best if not actively anti-indigenous and racist
