I can't believe MCR is real what the hell ??? Check them out on my etsy
It's time for the anti ai post a lot of anti ai people might not like. But it's crucially important you don't react badly when someone asks you if something you wrote is AI.
I get it. You feel insulted. You've always writen this way, and AI has stolen it after being fed the entire internet. Neurodivergent writers are more likely to be confused with AI. It all fucking sucks and I'm not arguing with any that.
You can have your feelings, you can tell your best friend and bitch about it privately. But I am asking you to please reply to that person in a neutral to mildly positive manner.
'No, I did not use any AI, it's all my own writing.' - Perfect. Just leave it at that.
This is so, so important because we cannot under any circumstances allow 'asking if something is AI or not' to become a thing that is considered rude or antisocial. AI techbros would love nothing more.
Half the backlash to fat lib content essentially boils down to "I can't believe you're FORCING me to not be mean to you"
Thin people are absolutely relentless with this. "But I have to TELL them!" "I can't just not SAY something!" "We can't just PRETEND it's fine to be fat!"
They really seem to think the main reason people are fat is because we're simply drowning in approval and no one has been brave enough to inform us that it's better to not be fat, actually
I have seriously been called a murderer for saying "Hey actually maybe we shouldn't all be starving and poisoning ourselves all the time" but like yeah haha fat people are just drowning in approval;;;;
Green eyes shouldn’t actually be considered an eye color. It’s just not common enough, it’s a VERY SMALL percentage of the population, 1-2%. Green eyes are also caused by an irregular mutation. Most people have blue or brown eyes, so those are the two eye colors.
All the “green eyes” positivity is actually a bad thing, by the way. Having green eyes is linked to higher rates of retinal melanoma. You’re celebrating something dangerous that can cause suffering.
And besides, most people with “green eyes” lean closer to blue or brown anyways. They should just make up their minds and be brown eyed or blue eyed. And if it’s too hard to tell, they should get corrective surgery (because green eyes are dangerous, and associated with more difficult medical care!) or at the least wear contacts so they don’t confuse people. But also they should be required to
I hate to sound like this, but green eyes are a far more recent development than blue eyes in the mutagenic history of humans. So humans weren’t created to have green eyes.
And hazel eyes? Those are just a variant of brown eyes—come on, they’re far closer to brown than green. They just have a couple greenish traits. And there’s no way there’s that many green eyed people, or a wide variety of eye colors… It’s just not natural.
I don’t have a problem with green eyed people, they didn’t ask to be born that way—but there’s just too few of them for it to be an actual eye color. We don’t need all this “green eye positivity” or putting green eyes in media. The internet is making people delude themselves into thinking it’s more common than it really is.
‼️ THIS POST IS ABOUT THE TREATMENT OF INTERSEX PEOPLE ‼️
✅ I HAVE GREEN EYES THIS IS SATIRE ✅
⚠️ PLEASE DON’T SEND ME ANY MORE THREATS OF VIOLENCE IN DEFENSE OF PEOPLE WITH GREEN EYES?? ⚠️
💧 THIS POST IS NOT ABOUT EYE COLOR?? IT’S ABOUT INTERSEXISM AND BIGOTRY 💧
this kingdom is going to shit man
An honorable mention that lives forever in my heart
This is gonna sound supremely insanely haterist of me but hear me out:
If someone is talking about swastikas in the context of naziism and antisemitic hate crimes, you do not need to bring up the fact that it is actually a Buddhist or Hindu symbol of good luck or prosperity or peace. We know that. We know. You have eyes, you can see that those are not the swastikas we are talking about. Please please please can you use an iota of reading comprehension. I don't care that this is the piss on the poor site, you can choose to improve yourself.
It's so funny/neg, because I've seen this discussion when people have tattoos of them, too. Like, who do you think is getting tattoos of a swastika? Buddhists and Hindus know that this would be a bad fucking idea.
"Oh, but you see this picture etched on the desk isn't angled right to be the nazi symbol-" I no longer trust that anyone arguing this really believes this. You know, you fucking know.
hindus do actually get tattoos of the swastika. hindus paint swastikas onto walls and clothes and hindu children etch them onto school tables. i know this because i'm hindu and i've drawn the swastika with ball pens at the back of my hand many times. the holocaust was one of the worst things to happen in human history, but that doesnt give you pass to act as if--and im so sorry if this sounds harsh--the world revolves around you. just because nazis used the hooked cross on their flags doesnt mean anyone else who's using the sign (not the hooked cross. i mean the swastika.) is a fascist bigot.
oh, and on that note, hindus have been literally begging yall to refer to it as the hooked cross. i personally tried to ask europeans why they're calling it the swastika and not the hooked cross, when hitler (and the nazis, iirc) literally referred to the sign as hooked cross, and they piled on me. yall keep clinging to the false translation made by a white man for whatever reason, refusing to use the actual vocab used by the genociders--and yes, i am actually going to whine about vocab because words and points of view matter.
what nazis used was not the swastika. it was the hooked cross. acting as if anyone and everyone who uses the swastika and/or defends its use is a monster among humans is wildly immature.
If someone is talking about swastikas in the context of naziism and antisemitic hate crimes, you do not need to bring up the fact that it is actually a Buddhist or Hindu symbol of good luck or prosperity or peace. We know that. We know. You have eyes, you can see that those are not the swastikas we are talking about. Please please please can you use an iota of reading comprehension.
i dont know mate, its probably because those people see you spitting out the name swastika and feel the need to defend their own culture and identity (i'd say religion too, but i see sanatan (what yk as hinduism) as a philosophy and not a religion but thats a whole other thing entirely)? because you keep using the word swastika? ever thought of that? because hindus are already oppressed in their own lands, are hate crimed every now and then, and centuries of oppression and hinduphobia have made them incredibly sensitive to such things? that they're just trying to take care of the culture they managed to save? how would you feel if someone referring to israel's faults--whatever they are--kept saying "star of david" this and "star of david" that? would you not feel the need to correct them, defend your identity?
"Oh, but you see this picture etched on the desk isn't angled right to be the nazi symbol-" I no longer trust that anyone arguing this really believes this.
if you wish to isolate yourself in a bubble of anybody whoever dares to use this exact symbol in whatever angle is a BIGOT and a NAZI, then go right ahead, i suppose.
true, h¡tler called that thing a hakenkreuz, the english media referred it to the nazi hooked cross, in various European countries it is still called hooked cross in various languages, but for some reason, Americans insist calling it swastika, which itself is an auspicious word. That said, all the nazis who try to appropriate from Hinduism or Buddhism while intimidating Jewish people, may they get cursed to hell.
BTW this is why “Nazi” is sometimes used as a racial slur towards Hindus and Indians, and falsely accusing us of being Nazis is one of the many flavors of hate crimes against us.
What makes it funnier is India is one of the few countries in the world where Jews were never persecuted against…
Indeed, Hindu king gave shelter to Baghdadi Jewish refugees, Sassoon family was one of them. They lived and thrived in India. India also gave shelter to Polish refugees in WW2. Not many can say that they have given shelter to many communities, be it Iranian Zoroastrians, Baghdadi Jews, Syriac Christians, Uzbek and Uyghur Muslims, Tibetan Buddhists, Hakka Chinese etc.
its not 'for whatever reason'. they specifically chose to call it swastika instead of hakenkreuz so that christianity's image would not be tainted. They placed the stain onto a pagan symbol to keep their image clean and left us to explain ourselves to the world for the rest of eternity
idk what white mcrblr did this time but i’m taking it as a sign i should get serious about that server for mcr fans of color. so. just to gauge interest:
would you, nonwhite mcr fan reading this, join a mcr discord server specifically for poc
yes
maybe
no
no white people button but if you wanted to reblog this for reach that would be cool
also if anyone would be potentially willing or interested in helping me moderate such a server, even if you don’t have any experience doing so, please hmu
OP: Share beautiful and practical stitching techniques.(cr 随心意针线)
theoryslop. you only believe in it because it has evidence supported by and relating to the narrative and themes of the work
truly one of the most upsetting things to hear in pretty much any context is "i'm used to it"
let's hear some flat affected cheers and listless applause from the anhedonic crowd
no one is coming to save you its true its true someone might be coming to hang outttttttttt though. someday
fuck everything. whats the media people ASSUME youre into. what are people surprised that you havent watched/played/whatever
Man, the flesh sucks. I'm gonna abandon it for the machine.
Hey was anyone gonna telle that the machine is also subject to change? The nature of my decay is just different now. Shit sucks. I'm gonna abandon the machine for the divine.
Bad news about the divine
europeans be like “omg north americans are so racist it’s horrible” and then elect fascists
I would like to emphasize that I agree with all of these tags by the way. My post wasn't aiming to pin all of Europe's grotesque racism on the new elections.
A few weeks ago I was at a board game night with some of my old classmates from various mainland European countries. They started talking about how horrible Trump's treatment of immigrants is and how they're so glad to be in Europe where nothing like that is happening right now. I asked them what they thought about the fact that their own governments were complicit in turning the Mediterranean into a mass grave of asylum seekers, and some of them legitimately didn't even know and were surprised to hear that their own governments had enacted policies that caused the deaths of thousands of asylum seekers.
Even here in Iceland, almost nobody has been talking about the fact that some of the far right populist parties have legitimately been talking about wanting to establish detainment camps to keep asylum seekers in.

This post is a few months old now, and the bit about Iceland is now outdated, because Alþingi (the Icelandic parliament) passed the bill approving the detention center for asylum seekers. It will be legal to handcuff and detain children there.
Never let anyone from Europe feed you the lie that racism and fascism are unique to North America in the 21st century.
This post made racists angry enough to harass me over it, which all that's going to do is make me bring this post back and reblog it more.
[ID: tags from @/hieriscurtisii: you all are still being too nice about european racism if you think the electing fascists is the thing to point to. Europeans turned the mediterranean into a mass grave with social democrats and green parties in their parliaments like. /end ID]
