hey so "[disorder name] dni" is ableist btw. putting people with a medical condition they can't control in the same dni list as "racists" or "homophobes/transphobes" etc is ableist as fuck and implies they're also a bad group of people that should be avoided. it's demonizing a group of people who simply have a diagnosis. been seeing a lot of "narcissists dni" and "psychopaths dni" lately and just wanted to remind you this shit is not okay.

[sponponn]

dont ask them to elaborate

[fuckthisshit-ugh]

please read this even if you're not indian. especially if you're not indian.

you've seen the jokes. india is "dirty", indians are "everywhere", why don't they fix their own country. ok. let me tell you why, and what's happening right now while nobody's watching.

first, the history you skipped: britain ruled india for two centuries and drained it. economist utsa patnaik's research estimates around $45 trillion in today's money was taken. the india that got independence in 1947 was one of the poorest countries on earth. every "why is india like this" question starts there. you don't get to profit off a robbery and then mock the crime scene.

now, what's happening RIGHT NOW:

in may the question paper for NEET leaked. that's the national medical entrance exam. over 2.2 million students took it. cancelled. years of studying, families' savings poured into coaching, gone overnight because someone sold the paper. students died by suicide after. these were kids who wanted to be doctors.

and out of that came a protest movement. a gen z group called the cockroach janta party, started by a 30 year old named abhijeet dipke, got 22 million instagram followers within DAYS. they've been doing a sit-in at jantar mantar in delhi demanding education minister dharmendra pradhan resign.

and then there's sonam wangchuk. if you've watched 3 idiots, he's the real engineer the character was based on. built solar schools in ladakh. invented ice stupas so himalayan villages have water. spent his whole life on education. he's 59 and he's been on hunger strike for 17+ days now. reporters went to see him this week and he was too weak to talk. and the troll armies are calling him "anti national" and "foreign funded". a man starving himself for other people's children. that's the thing here, anyone who asks a question is suddenly a traitor.

it's not one incident, it's everywhere you look:

• infrastructure worth thousands of crores failing within months of the ribbon cutting. tunnels collapsing in regions where heavy rain is a guarantee, not a surprise.

• youth unemployment near 10% for ages 15 to 29, 13.6% in cities. in a country of 1.42 billion where more than half the population is young.

• only about the top 3% of indians earn above 10 lakh a year. meanwhile billionaire wealth keeps ballooning and the headlines celebrate it.

• manipur burned for over two years. an ethnic conflict, tens of thousands displaced, and the prime minister barely said the word manipur while it happened.

• journalists raided. critics' houses bulldozed. activists sitting in jail for years without trial under laws like UAPA. our press freedom ranking has cratered.

• even the petrol is a fight now, ethanol blending pushed through while drivers complain about their engines and get no straight answers.

and through all of it, the PM, who came to power on religious polarisation (americans, sound familiar?), travels abroad for photo ops and has not held one single open press conference in over a decade. not one.

what i'm asking:

if you're not indian: share this. our media mostly won't cover any of it because the big outlets are owned by the same billionaires the government serves. the only reason wangchuk's fast is getting any coverage is people refusing to look away.

if you ARE indian: speak up even if you're comfortable. especially if you're comfortable. join the protests. add to this, correct me, translate it. staying quiet is a choice when nothing in this post touches your life.

india is not "dirty". india was robbed, and it's being robbed again, from the inside this time. but it's also the country where a 59 year old will starve for strangers' kids and 22 million young people will rally behind a party literally named after cockroaches, because cockroaches survive everything.

we can still save her. but only loudly.

reblog. share. don't scroll past.

It's like. you don't get your own childhood. not "didn't get the childhood you wanted," it's "didn't get a childhood that was yours." and you're supposed to be normal about it. and people tell you Oh you didn't miss much it was bad and awful for xyz reasons you really don't Actually want to be raised as a girl. well, what if I was a girl anyway and everyone acted like I wasn't. called me a name that wasn't mine. told me I was a person I wasn't until I believed it and clung to that fake person until I saw it was cutting into my hands. it wasn't mine. that child wasn't me; wasn't allowed to be me; wasn't even allowed to know there was a me. what if, on a very real level, my childhood was not mine? what if I wanted a childhood where I was actually seen, even if it hurts? and I'm supposed to be normal about it

I have so many conflicting thoughts about Shi0n Overwatch redesigns to her mask especially because of how much lore-wise it's so integral that she fucking hates being an omnic. She purposefully chose a very human mask, and while from the meta perspective it gives a very boring same face syndrome woman, the actual lore doing its best to support that decision is legitimately interesting to explore. Redesigns for her always just run into the problem of how Shi0n just ... wouldn't actively choose to present herself that way. Which is just the toughest part about touching the mask in any way ....

[transcandlewax]

i actually dont remember if i saw this somewhere, or if its my own idea, but the idea was that shion should be uncanny valley. it fits her concept very well - she tries to be human, but shes just off a bit. shes human but doesnt have the same face, and is still offputting just a bit more!

There’s a happy ending to, because the robbery was unsuccessful, the couple ended up getting the money Eden needed from a movie inspired by em! Also John only had to serve part of his sentence. Check out their wedding photos btw they’re beautiful.

[itsanidiom]

[archibaldtuttle]

Everyone go watch Dog Day Afternoon please please please it’s the movie mentioned in this thread it’s Sidney Lumet’s best imo and Al Pacino plays John and he is heartbreakingly good in it.

For pride month, here's an unfun fact: there was a trans man who was a poet in early 1900s Poland and his name was Piotr Odmieniec Włast. He burned all his feminine clothes, wrote personal letters using masculine pronouns on himself and had teeth removed to make his face more masculine (but don't try this one, okay?). He was thrown into an insane asylum by his family for being trans. He is still called a woman and she by most polish publications about him (including his own memorial website), university literature professors refer to him as a woman, and has his deadname on his tombstone.

There is a difference between women writing under a masc pseudonym and Piotr. That was not a pseudonym. He is a man.

I just think he deserves justice, and to be known by his real name. Piotr Odmieniec Włast.
