The UK gets a new prime minister just whenever. Completely random intervals

[punkrock-bottom]

It may seem random but it’s actually not! We get a new prime minister after the previous one enters a protective chrysalis after a period of relentless eating and growing, and they then dissolve into a biological soup. They then reform into the new adult prime minister. It really beautiful to see 🥰

hate when christian’s call the bible “the good book.” it’s not that good you should try harrow the ninth

I think if I heard I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas in the correct circumstances it could move me to tears. It's like the promise of a brighter future that never came to pass

cemeteries were a structure, believed by archeologists to have ritual purposes[1], where lichens were grown and worshipped[2].

not even two years after the 2024 racist riots and attempted pogroms, we are back to more racist riots and attempted pogroms.

a mosque in scotland had to be put into lockdown. they are going door-to-door with hit lists and addresses in northern ireland, setting houses alight. they firebombed an imam's house in manchester. people of colour are being targeted and attacked by racist mobs in the street in broad daylight.

and instead of widespread condemnation or wall-to-wall coverage, the UK media and political establishment is filling air time talking about the "legitimate concerns" people have about "illegal migrants"

white people will literally be like if u arent nice to me Im going to become a nazi. and think they’re making a great argument

[uptownthots]

this stupid shit has been around for so long and it’s crazy to me there are still people with enough rocks in their brain to believe it. “Oughhhhh if you aren’t nice to you oppressors they’ll become bigots instead of allies” if someone’s support for marginalized groups hinges entirely on whether or not that group is niceys, they’re by definition not effective or useful allies and, by admission of this argument, an active danger to the communities theyre supposed to be allied with because they can Enter Bigot Mode the second they become displease

The Left Hand of Darkness

[nebulations]

[ID copied from alt: Fanart for The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula Le Guin. A scribbly drawing of mountains and glacier with two very small figures dragging a sledge across the landscape, sun just warming the tips of the mountains. Handwritten scribbly text reads "I think we might make it, he said," then over a drawing of a figure almost silhouetted in the foreground (Genly Ai) looking towards a figure whose fur-lined coat is illuminated round the edge with light as they look out at the landscape, "with that complete simplicity / I had so long taken / for irony" End ID]

[ID: tweet edited to be from David Ward, handle iamineskew. Edited text reads ‘The thing people don’t get about eskew is that yes: it’s wildly expensive. Yes: it’s wet. And yes: it’s difficult to navigate and the people are turning into worms. But the food? Also sometimes worm people.’ End ID]
