That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science

Matthew didn't mean to look away for that long. He was just trying to find something that would occupy the little ones. Thank goodness nothing bad happened, but Claire still wasn't happy

Lock Them Up—And Throw Away the Constitution?

They’re Saying the Quiet Part Out Loud

Last weekend, the Trump administration floated something almost unspeakable in a free republic: the suspension of habeas corpus. That’s not a policy dispute. That’s not “tough on immigration.” That’s authoritarianism—raw, unveiled, and shockingly open.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller confirmed they’re “actively looking at” suspending the writ. The centuries-old right to challenge unlawful imprisonment. The constitutional bedrock. The difference between a republic and a regime.

Let’s be clear: this is the most dangerous idea floated by the Trump administration since it returned to power. If we don’t sound the alarm now, we may not have the right to do so later.

What Is Habeas Corpus, and Why Does It Matter?

The phrase habeas corpus comes from Latin, meaning “you shall have the body.” This is far more than words. It is a legal shield—allowing anyone held by the government to demand a judge review their detention. It is the right to not disappear. The right to not rot in a cell without charge or trial.

It is the first domino in any authoritarian playbook.

Without habeas corpus, there is no limit to who the government can imprison. Political dissidents. Journalists. Migrants. You.

Can the President Suspend It? No.

The Trump White House is trying to justify a possible suspension by citing Article I of the Constitution, which says habeas corpus may only be suspended “when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it.” But here's the problem: Article I governs Congress, not the President. The Founders placed that clause there deliberately, as a constraint, not a loophole. Even Abraham Lincoln, in the middle of an actual civil war, had to go to Congress for permission. And when he didn’t, the courts pushed back.

There is no rebellion. No invasion. No justification.

Stephen Miller’s Language Isn’t Just Political. It’s Fascist, and Here’s Why

Dehumanization Through “Invasion”

Labeling undocumented immigrants as an “invasion” is strategic. It doesn’t just raise the stakes, it militarizes human beings. It recasts families, asylum seekers, and workers as a hostile army. This is how fascists reframe civil problems as security emergencies:

Mussolini called labor unrest a threat to national sovereignty.

Hitler described Jews and Eastern Europeans as an invading infestation threatening German purity.

Franco in Spain branded Republicans as foreign infiltrators and insurgents.

By turning people into an invading force, the state grants itself the license to use military solutions like detention, deportation, and even suspension of fundamental rights.

2. The Use of Emergency Language to Expand Power

Miller isn’t arguing the law, he’s arguing for the suspension of law. He says the administration will act depending on whether courts “do the right thing.” That is fascist logic: the law exists only to serve the state’s will. If the courts uphold the Constitution, and the executive doesn't like the outcome, then the courts are the problem.

This frames judicial independence as a threat to “national security.” That’s not governance. That’s the groundwork for autocracy.

This Would Be the Fifth Time in U.S. History—and the First Without a Legitimate Cause

The writ has only been suspended four times in U.S. history:

Civil War (Lincoln)

Reconstruction (South Carolina, 1871)

Philippine Insurrection (1905)

World War II (Hawaii, 1941)

Each time was linked to clear, immediate wartime or domestic rebellion conditions. Now Trump and Miller want to add “border crisis” to that list?

It’s not constitutional. It’s not defensible. It’s not American.

This Is the Threshold. If They Cross It, We’re in New Territory.

You don’t suspend habeas corpus because you “disagree with court rulings,” as Miller suggested. That’s not law. That’s tyranny.

Once a president claims the power to imprison without judicial oversight, elections lose meaning. Dissent becomes dangerous. The rule of law collapses under the weight of executive fiat.

We are not talking about some obscure legal theory. We are talking about the mechanism by which democracies die.

Final Word: Sound the Alarm Before the Sirens Are Silenced

If the White House goes down this road, the public must be prepared for mass resistance: legal, political, and civic. Congress must act. The courts must hold. But above all, the people must rise up before the cement of tyranny sets.

The Constitution is only as strong as our willingness to defend it.

The writ of habeas corpus is the thread that holds liberty together. If we let them cut it, we may never be able to stitch this republic back together again.

What You Can Do—Because Silence Isn’t an Option

the government openly entertains the suspension of habeas corpus, we are no longer debating immigration—we are fighting for the survival of due process, civil liberty, and the very concept of freedom under law.

Here’s how you can act:

📢 Share this post: Help cut through the noise. The public needs to understand what this means and what’s at stake. Use your platform: social media, group chats, campus forums, and newsletters to spread the word.

📞 Contact your representatives: Demand that Congress—especially Democrats and moderate Republicans—publicly reject any attempt to suspend habeas corpus without a formal declaration of rebellion or invasion. Silence is complicity.

🧠 Educate others: Talk to your friends, family, classmates, coworkers. Most people have never even heard of habeas corpus, let alone know what it means to lose it.

wishing I could freeze time so fanfic writers could write all of their slow-burn enemies to lovers and gay porn and fix-it fics and all of their WIPs and prompts without having to worry about life and other responsibilities

Found these guys at a store a few days ago...

I feel like they would be an interesting adventure trio XD

Like—

We have the one sophisticated being... and then we have the other two that are just cussing up a storm being absolute gremlins! I find it fucking hilarious.

(Bonus points if the sophisticated one is secretly also a gremlin or secretly the most chaotic one of the trio!)

TW: Pedophilia

Teenagers are rarely taught the reason why they can't consent to sex with adults.

And that's because teaching them that would completely unravel our coercion-based society.

It can be difficult to explain in detail the exact reason and all the specifics in a way that they will understand. But the simplest way to phrase it is that in some cases, even when someone agrees to something and even when they appear enthusiastic about it, there's too much of a power imbalance that it's no different than forcing them. Also, having power and being abusive doesn't require a conscious expectation to be obeyed.

Imagine a world in which every teenager understood that and was easily able to call out anyone who tried to convince them otherwise.

They'd know that there's no such thing as an employee consenting to working for a poverty wage, working in unsafe conditions, working long hours, or working without taking breaks. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to paying a bank overdraft fee. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to student loan debt. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to medical bills. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to generating profit for banks or landlords in order to have a place to live and being evicted or foreclosed when you lose your source of income. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to a police search. They'd know that there's no such thing as a child who's okay with their parents spanking them. They'd know that being dependent on someone does not mean that you can never criticize them. They'd know that if it's considered abusive to simply play along when someone obeys, then it has to be much more abusive to actively expect to be obeyed, which many adults do to them.

And people who benefit from a society based on coercion masquerading as freedom wouldn't like that.

So instead, teenagers are taught something dismissive. They're taught that what they want doesn't matter. They're taught that they're too young to know what love is. They're taught "it's the law". They're taught things that are insulting to their intelligence, which they'll naturally rebel against.
