FUCK. honestly just FUCK. We missed a very important day yesterday.

I’m not missing it this year.
why does this have 32k notes? it’s just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. it’s just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain
no one tell him
Scheduling this to post on March 15 because it needs to happen.
March 15 again and here we go…
I have been waiting all year to post this.

This has been in my queue for months.
I missed it last year and I vowed that would NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.
omg i didnt reblog this last year!
blaze it, i whisper as i light my homework on fire
I’VE WAITED 2 FUCKING YEARS TO POST THIS BECAUSE I MISSED 420 2 FUCKING YEARS IN A ROW
your url is…interesting. but yeah I’ve scheduled this for exactly in a year
Learning about the Ides of March in middle school was so surreal for me because it’s my birthday, so when the teacher started talking about March 15th and Caesar’s murder, everyone who knew my birthday gave me the side eye like I was the one who stabbed him, so I was sitting there like
are u insane like me
been in pain like me
upset that u couldn’t protect Nellie Crain like me
It’s the 10 year anniversary of 2009…
we let fireflies be a hit the same year tik tok dropped what the fuck

2009 is actually my favorite genre of music
Just another lovely day out with Townsville’s chaotic trio :>

I hate it when your parents are like “I know you better than you know yourself!” Like no you don’t
Like oh, you’re an expert on the inner machinations of my psyche? Name three of my top ten existential dreads
“But I raised you!” Ya and the only version of me that you know is the one I carefully crafted so that you wouldn’t ask me questions because it became obvious early on you couldn’t handle the honest answers
It’s cleaning time again only instead of using just the faucet I decided to try the shower head instead. I left him like this for 20 mins while I cleaned out and scrubbed his cage.
I feel like Africa is playing in his head

I was high off my ass last night and had this dream where I was in this dense ass forest and sitting there was a tall woman. She was so tall I couldn’t see her face but she was wearing gold and I was like “uh...hi?” And she said “I made you, do you know that?” And I nodded and she was like “I hear your thoughts. Why do you hate my creation? Why do you try to destroy yourself? I made you perfect as you are. Please don’t break my heart”. Then she started crying and it flooded and I woke up with fucking heart palpitations like what does it Mean™️????
polar opposite of this post
the inherent eroticism of wearing a dagger strapped to your upper thigh
thinkin about my (openly gay) lit professor today saying, “one of my favorite historical anecdotes is the time that Oscar Wilde was in America, at the same time that Walt Whitman was active and writing poems about sticking his tongue down other men’s shirts, and Wilde went to Whitman’s house exactly one time and spent several hours there, and ever since all these historians have been like ‘what could they have been doing???? it’s such a shame we’ll never know...’ and I just.... we know. the only question now is who was the top.”
here’s a handy checklist for anyone considering redeeming a villain!!!
are they…
❏ a wife beater? ❏ sexually abusive? ❏ violent towards small children? ❏ extremely racist? ❏ a goddamn fascist?
if you checked any of these boxes, not only should you not redeem that villain, but I’m also going to come to your house and pour sewer water into your sock drawer for even considering it
I totally understand why one would feel that way, but basically what you are saying is, the above mentioned people are true evil and can never change and thus giving examples of how such a change might happen must not be written?
Or am I missing something here?
By all means, write well written, conflict-filled, problematic and problem-solving redemtionarcs for abusive charakters!
Give them some rolemodels who actually look at their actions and learn to consider the consequences!
Yeah, this. Redemption doesn’t mean ‘all is forgiven’, or ‘we all act like it never happened’, it doesn’t mean ‘you can move freely through the world as if your victims don’t exist’, it doesn’t mean ‘your harm stops having consequences’.
It means: a person realizes that their behavior was horrible, stops doing it and tries to fix the parts of the damage that can be fixed. Showing that and showing the capability of change is GOOD. We NEED redemption arcs like that.
(and an important part of that redemption arc might be the moment a character STOPS thinking that they will one day be forgiven by all, accepts that there are permanent consequences for their actions, and continues their commitment to never harm someone like that again.)
Actual fascists can and do stop being fascists and become active antifascists. Groups that facilitate that difficult process have always been an important part of antifascism.
Showing that sort of change in fiction and non-fiction is GOOD. Making it clear that those who did terrible harm can stop doing that harm, can take real accountability for it and can repair some of the damage is important.
People have to stop conflating “all is forgiven” with “being a better person”
Because those two things are not the fucking same.
Does OP not realise that people like this can actually redeem themselves IRL? And do? Like there are reformed ex-abusers, ex-racists, and ex-fascists who have publicly renounced their former behaviours and have actively worked to become better people.
It doesn’t mean the people they’ve hurt have to forgive them. But it does mean they’re working to do something good with their life rather than evil. That’s what redemption is.
Redemption stories remind us that it is always possible to make the choice to be better than who you were yesterday. And isn’t that so much better than the message “well you’re evil now so you may as well keep being evil because you can never fix yourself”?
I think @queeranarchism is referencing Life After Hate, which is a real organization that helps get people out of far right hate groups. Here’s the link if anyone wants to support. https://www.lifeafterhate.org/
