Can I be honest with yall I don't want to hear SHIT against cishets at pride this year

"But it's not FOR them!!!" The biggest military power in the world belongs to a christofascist nation overseen by a felon found guilty of 34 federal crimes and has greenlit a gestapo with more direct funding than the entire military of Canada for the purpose of ethnic cleansing.

At this point if anyone is trying to exclude anyone benignly pro-queer from a pro-queer space I'm just going to assume you're a fed or something idk like something something destabilize the movement from within or whatever

You also can’t guess if someone is cis or not just looking at them.

Not “Only my reading of canon is correct” or “Interpretations are subjective and all valid” but a secret third thing, “More than one interpretation can be valid but there’s a reason your English teacher had you cite quotes and examples in your papers, you have to have a strong argument that your interpretation is actually supported by the text or it is just wrong and I’m fine with telling you it’s wrong, actually.”

as you get older, you start realizing that you are not always right and there’s a lot of things you could have handled better and many situations where you could have been kinder and all you can really do is forgive yourself and let your mistakes make you a better person.

[seithe-adahl]

Or rather you realize how much you messed your life irreversibly, because you didn’t have a safe space that allowed for mental stability and you had to leave home while you were lost and too immature.

And you especially regret every days not having known the pieces of medias that saved your life earlier, because it would’ve given you the strength you so needed to face the world and accept yourself a little more, so you could’ve done a lot of things differently and maybe be able to survive independently.

[corseque]

this just can't be the world we live in, I just can't accept it. I grew up thinking it would be only natural for things to only get better and better, I thought the generation that came after would be even better than us, I thought cruelty and greed would be punished and that people would understand and be more educated than their grandparents. But everything in the world, every facet and every plane, just has this jello core of weakness and stupidity, and that has been the hardest thing for me to accept

[kragehund-est]

it actually is insane to me that it's a cultural norm for men to suck ass at getting their wives/gfs gifts. especially when they whine about how they have no idea what women like.

man, you're not getting a gift for Female Domestic Partner. you're getting a gift for Natalie, a person whom you have been married to for 7 years, whom has lived in the same home with you for a decade, whom speaks to you every day about her thoughts and interests, whom you presumably love, and whom you can directly or indirectly ask what she wants. it's not that you don't know what half the human population wants, that's irrelevant. you don't know what Natalie wants and that is inexcusable.

Capitalism has turned violence into the sole privlege of the wealthy in ways it never has before. The NeoLiberal idea that fighting back against a regime that was built on the backs of the poor and continues to profit from their suffering is somehow wrong needs to fucking die, and die screaming. 

Just because you can’t see the hand that’s choking you doesn’t mean you aren’t still being assaulted. Just because the violence is invisible doesn’t mean it isn’t still violence. Capitalism and Liberal Centrism use obfuscation, backdoor dealing, evasion, scapegoating, propaganda, and the ignorance of the people living under these systems to conceal and distract from the invisible violence inherent to wealth disparity. 

The existence of the ultra wealthy is inherently violent. They use financial, political, and social privlege to take food from the mouths of the hungry, medicine from the sick, and homes from the unhoused. Venture capitalism and industrial wealth deal directly in committing violence against people. Our quality of life, our environment, our institutions; even the lives and futures of our fucking children have been indisputably and irrevocably changed for the worse if not outright destroyed to serve the bank accounts of the greedy few. Unchecked grifting and those who uphold the system that allow it have killed millions and will only continue to do so. 

Captitalism is cultural violence. It is the monster that eats its own young. Those who use their privlege and power to maintain a system that was built on and incentivizes the exploitation of and disregard of human life deserve fucking death. 

The world needs more violence against the rich. We need to remind them why Democracy and due process are the kinder alternative to being dragged into the streets and murdered with their entire family by the people they have spent generations exploiting

happy birthday veilguard I wish I had never met you

Tell me again why violence isn’t the answer.

kate mulgrew putting her whole heart into flemythal’s “i will have my revenge” monologue just for that storyline to basically be dropped is at the top of veilguard’s list of crimes for sure

Also I am asking all of you, once again, to learn about ecosystem conservation and restoration instead of wallowing in "we are already past the point of no return" or that it will take "millennia" to restore ecosystems.

You have to understand that nature does not work in the same timeframe as ours. Protecting and restoring ecosystems is RIDICULOUSLY inexpensive and requires very little industrial technology; shovels and saplings are not exactly high-tech. But it takes time and long-term projects with people determined to do it. Maybe we are too focused in our "we want it now" thinking, but what you see today is not what you may see in 10, 20, 50, even 80 years if you live that long.

But it works. It's working right now, and when capitalism is replaced by socialism and we stop thinking on short-term gain, when our societies are focused into the common welfare instead of accumulation, it will even work better. Again I could point out to individual examples but instead, I encourage you to learn about ecology. We are well past from the catastrophic "Earth will die and there's nothing we can do" predictions from the 80s. We know what to do, we know it can work.

First-of-its-kind study definitively shows that conservation actions are effective at halting and reversing biodiversity loss

A new study published online today, April 25, in the scientific journal Science provides the strongest evidence to date that not only is nat

This article talks about this very much in the "see? ecology can help the economy too!" tone that unfortunately is sort of necessary to convince people in the current capitalist system. But I don't want you to focus on this right now.

I want you to KNOW how doable this is. How inexpensive this is, how POSSIBLE THIS IS. That people working and loving the land and nature they live in is possible. That these projects WORK, THEY DO restore and preserve ecosystems. That humanity is neither a plague that destroys everything or a passive bystander on its own destruction but that these are actual things that can be, are, and will be implemented, backed by actual science and results. This is not empty #hopecore #hopepunk feel good stuff, these are things you can learn about, even work towards, and you can most certainly demand they are part of our society.

Are you listening to me?

"I'm just losing hope." Then get some fucking conviction. Millions of people around the globe are working their asses off and seeing results. What they are doing IS WORKING.

This orange peel story was huge years ago: https://www.scientificamerican.com/podcast/episode/a-fruitful-experiment-in-land-conservation/

Beavers reintroduced to historic wetlands improve them at such a level that we can see the improvements from space: https://news.mongabay.com/2023/09/nasa-satellites-reveal-restoration-power-of-beavers/

Africa is successfully slowing desertification and restoring historic farming soil with their Green Wall project: https://welcomeafrica.org/en/africa-combats-desertification-with-a-belt-of-life/

There has even been success at regrowing coral reefs--something which I am old enough to be told was impossible. But people have been hard at work for decades since then, and this is one of the results: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/03/240308123248.htm

REPAIRING THE DAMAGE IS ENTIRELY WITHIN THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY.

THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE IF YOU HAVE THE CONVICTION TO BACK IT UP.

i hate when ppl act like the only reason to not like a "sad" ending is because you can't take it or whatever. personally as a tragedy enjoyer, i hate a poorly written ending. i hate an ending that is just kind of a bummer. i hate an ending that feels mean-spirited to the audience. i hate an ending that's redundant. i love a sad ending that is thematically consistent, poignant, and bespoke to the rest of its narrative.
