if the british people you know seem upset rn, it’s not that theyre bootlicking monarchists. the queens death is going to dominate their news cycle to the exclusion of all else, the cost of the funeral and coronation are going to be giant wastes of money straining an already hyper-inflated economy, traffic and travel are going to be fucked up. british people are suffering right now- being part of the poor working class there sucks just as much as it does to us in the US- and they deserve our solidarity. we can all get in on the jokes and memes and crab raves, but remember that her death didn’t end anything for them: it’s just the beginning of a shitshow.

The rail industry and Royal Mail (postal service) strikes planned have been cancelled out of ‘respect’ if you want an idea of how ridiculous it is here, and how the royal family is being valued above (poor) people’s livelihoods and quality of life.

Most sporting and cultural events are due to be cancelled over the next few days, but we're still expected to work. It's a perfect encapsulation of dour British culture: out of respect for your feudal betters, the only pleasure allowed to you is to be exploited.

i want to be a conventionally attractive wealthy skinny ciswoman so i can go on the bachelor and make it all the way thru the competition, and when the guy proposes to me i just like leap towards him and close my teeth around his neck and bite as hard as i can. just absolute animal brutality like shaking his neck like a ragdoll, growling ripping tearing etc, and then before anyone can stop me immediately run into traffic and die so no one ever gets the chance to understand why that happened

No one is so senseless as to choose of his own will war rather than peace, since in peace the sons bury their fathers, but in war the fathers bury their sons.

love IS supposed to hurt but not in a toxic or abusive way but because love and grief go hand in hand

[valtsv]

when you love someone you notice their absence and feel it so much it hurts. when you grieve for someone you notice their absence and feel it so much it hurts. to grieve is to have loved, and to love is to grieve.
