I love watching YouTube channels do Reddit stories until they cover a vegan topic, it’s so clear that they all (usually) have a Californian, privileged, “woke” mindset. Like veganism is a choice/basic belief not a religion, it’s more political than anything else. Veganism is way more expensive than any other eating habit/diet. As well as veganism harming the environment more than it helps “the wittle animals” (farming practices, plastic wool/not sheering sheep, etc.)
And like I get it, animals are cute and you don’t want to harm them but like people are animals too and most humans need animal products from meat to honey to milk.
Veganism has to always always be accommodated how dare you suggest other wise or insist I provide you with a non vegan option. “Eat a burger beforehand you baby” is a much more common phrase in these talks than “eat a salad beforehand”
It’s so frustrating.
Anyways none of this really applies to vegetarians, it’s not the same at all and I feel like people need to understand this again. I always here about “regular” people and “vegans” with vegetarians getting grouped in with vegans. Vegetarians also can have a medical reason to be that way as opposed to vegans because there is no such thing as a medical vegan.
Like go be vegan, just don’t be so evangelical about it 🙄.
I’m kinda tired of people dismissing critiques of Clawdeen Wolf’s casting or design as just hating on gen3. I’ve had mixed feelings about leaked designs, but I actually like some things about her officially released ones. I like her little wolf nose and outfit, but there’s clearly a colorism issue. I even posted about how I was shook that g1 Clawdeen wasn’t voiced by a racialized black person and someone still felt the need to bring up g3 clawdeen, saying that Clawdeen’s voiced by a racialized black person now. As if I’m not allowed to be bothered anymore because we have g3 now. As if g3 doesn’t have its own issues.
I’d like to expand it and add facts supporting it, I’ll do it when I have time in a reblog
I really hate how people who have watched BNHA say Midoriya is a weak character. As a fan of shounen, I’ve come across many MCs. Yes, you could argue that BNHA is cliché, in which that the MC has no superpower and gains a powerful quirk. But he doesn’t randomly get a power quirk, he has to work for it. This kid spent a long time (I honestly forgot) moving rubbish from one side of the beach to the other. What drove him down that path was his determination and passion to become a hero.
He was going to take all the chances he got, he wasn’t going to waste them.
Midoriya isn’t naïve or weak in general. We’ve seen many MCs who get easily swayed by things around them. Power, Fame, Money or just being stupid in general. Even though Midoriya was quirkless at a young age, he did not let it get to him. This just made him strive for his dream goal even more.
And he never let go of that dream, no matter what he has to do to achieve it.
Midoriya weak? Hah lol what a joke
Midoriya isn’t weak because he was never weak in the first place.
Midoriya is actually stronger than we think he is. It’s your power, so hone it.”
don't read if you wanna decompress from this fucked up news cycle 💕
.. i'm willing to put money on the sniper in dallas being bl*ckpilled like tr 💀 no shot that someone who hates ice/wants better for the detainees would target a detention center WITH detainees inside . the word detention implies they would have detainees . grass is green . you get my point
how this admin still refuses to see that a lot of recent bad actors have zero loyalty to a political ideology (though they align more with the far right than other parts of the spectrum) is wild, but hey! anti-fa !!! no way someone who voted for the spray tan addict would Ever harm his cronies !!! bffr, most violent acts like this come from people who identify or align with right-wing ideology, the statistics speak for themselves dumbass?? (directed @ donut tramp, just in case that wasn't clear LMAO)
i'm not saying there's zero possibility that the sh**ter is actually left, but the fact that it's drawing more from tr sniping ck than other events (including lm since you just know the engraving aspect always causes false equivalencies in the crimes/motive/m.o.) makes me think it's furthering the agendas of those fatalist or just.. fucked up groups
helps that tr gaining infamy of sorts probably fuels a fire in some to achieve that level of 'success'
that aside.. this tylenol shit is SO FUNNY despite being insanely dangerous misinformation. like bruh, my mom must've been on extra strength cocktails with both pregnancies since i'm (not formally diagnosed but when you know you know) audhd and my brother's adhd
there's a disability tiktoker named imani (crutches n spice i believe is the username??) who posted a great hypothetical this morning on how this'll drop autism rates (summary: disability becomes a medical injury and investigating it for god knows how long withholds supports, drs scared of the blame eventually going to them for suggesting acetaminophen for fever or some other ailment, parents not seeking medical care for their kids on these matters or letting their child go undiagnosed/withholding supports means underreporting, etc).. mind you, i might be misconstruing that last point from her vid, but considering there was already a stigma and such a complexity to autism that makes it easy to go undetected well into adulthood, this'll just reverse the progress that i've noticed in recent years and set everyone back even further
what do these rich pricks even know about this shit? like genuinely, do they just assume every autistic person is low-functioning and a stereotype?? because i can assure you, some of their cabinet likely has it but hasn't been diagnosed. some of their biggest fundraisers and, lbr, most of the tech billionaires they fawn over probably have it, but either haven't been diagnosed or hide the diagnosis (or, if you're elon, you're public about it and even if you weren't, most would pick up on it anyways)
it's just so rich coming from the deflated buoy with dementia and the kennedy with the brainworm, they surely fare worse than many autistic people lol
tiny side note: anyone else feel like this is partially a way to subjugate women to different forms of harm while already forcing them to carry to term in red states?? like, there's nothing these fuckers love more than to oppress or control women, i would think they'd give equal attention to children's tylenol if acetaminophen is so harmful to a child's development – as in they would consider oral suspension to do harm as well during the toddler years (aka when you would start to see signs or notice behaviours in quute a few kids). the lack of actual evidence for their original claims would make drawing this other distinction SO easy, i'm surprised they didn't tack it on when that's such an rfk/tr*mp take and i literally came up with it in seconds lol
This whole passport business is wack as fuck Like I have to wait in the massive line and then I have to wait weeks and weeks for them to process it But the main problem I have is like okay so like we all need passports to come and go and be identified by the countries we're going to like why? We're already all here on planet earth so why do we have to show ID and be government approved just to move the fuck around?? Countries are drawn by invisible barriers and borders dude like it's all fake as hell and a way to divide us, to profit, and imbue a false sense of separation that leads to nationalism and an us vs them mentality which is so destructive Ughhhhh yet here I wait, anyway *exhales*
i’ve been thinking a lot about Kotori lately, tbh i feel like she’s more of an enigma than the rest of muse. Yes we can tell she is kind, she loves her childhood friends more than anything. She is soft spoken and supports her friends from behind the scenes. But I feel like there is more to her character that is unexplained and left up to our imagination.
Rin, Nico and Nozomi gets their own episodes in S2, which sheds light on their background, their insecurities and their problems. We get to see the anime through Honoka’s pov; We get to know more about Eli through her sister and Nozomi. But Kotori? i feel like whenever her background is mentioned its either with regards to her two childhood friends or the school.
i talked about this with @agent-dragicorn, regarding the old maid episode (also in the movie) in which she plays cards with Umi, she refuses to admit defeat even though she could’ve just let Umi win the game and they could retire early for the night. She didn’t, was it because of her pride? Maybe she wanted to spend more time with Umi? Did she want to see Umi suffer (in an affectionate way)? IMO Kotori is in no way a pushover, and definitely not a simple character, for there are many sides that we don’t really know.
