carla connor/lisa swain | coronation street
Carla is happy with her little makeshift family in Devon: her daughter, Lily, her girlfriend, Lisa, and her girlfriend's daughter, Betsy. Until, she gets the news that she is dying of kidney failure and her whole world is turned upside down.
a rewrite of carla's 2018 kidney failure storyline but if she had a daughter in 2014 and when they moved to Devon in 2016, she met lisa and fell in love

as the start of the nwsl season commences, this is your reminder that gotham fc currently has a former IDF soldier and israeli footballer, talia sommer, on its roster.
israel has committed genocide against the palestinian people and anyone who has served in the IDF is complicit. similarly, israel is currently committing war crimes against iran and lebanon and gaza.
spread the word and boycott. boycott. boycott.
From what I read when you turn 18 military service is mandatory unless see above!
the nazis had the same excuse. 🙄
btw, she was born in the united states. it was a conscious decision to serve in the idf and live and work in israel past the age of 18.
also you are discounting the conscientious objectors among israelis who refuse to serve 🙄
Israelis are regularly able to avoid serving in the IDF. Haredi men are exempt from the draft. These are Ultra-Orthodox Jews that are studying at the age of 18 and the religious beliefs prevent them from engaging in battle. In 2024, the supposed home of Judaism and safe space for Jewish people banned this exemption and tried to begin forcing young men to serve in the army due to the belief that many young men studied and claimed to be Ultra-Orthodox to avoid military service. This infringed on the beliefs of Ultra-Orthodox Jews and their religious freedom, in the country supposedly created to keep them safe.
Jewish women can also refuse on religious grounds and they are not required to be studying at the time though they are often married or pregnant.
Israel also doesn't even bother drafting Arab Israelis (despite Israel being in the Arab World, it's almost like they shouldn't be there). Reminder: Israel systematically refuses citizenship and residency to Jews of Colour including of the Ethiopian Jewish diaspora which currently facing extreme religious persecution. Furthermore, when they do allow entry to Jews of Colour they are often subjected to sertilisation because Israel is not a Jewish state, it's a White Settler Colonial State. [Don't worry they let pedophiles in though] https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-741881 https://www.humanium.org/en/exposing-pedophilia-and-legal-failures-in-israel/
Israelis can also refuse the draft and serve prison time however the government struggles to enforce it and rarely do young people spend time in prison. There is a network that supports brave young people in doing this. Famously you may remember the person behind a Taylor Swift Stan account that went to prison. It's not unheard of or an underground movement.
With increasing Haredi Jews refusing service, the IDF is depleted and it relies on American and other Jewish-Zionist OPTIONALLY serving in the military. 23,000 troops are estimated to be American currently.
It was a choice for her to go and kill Palestinians. The civilian death rate revealed by Israel is 83%. [source] That's not war, that's genocide and she shouldn't be on the football pitch she should be in the Hague answering for her crimes as Nazi soldiers did. To this day, people are still sentenced and imprisoned for their role in the Holocaust.

i’m rlly trying my best to be normal abt this 😭😭
Then & Now 💞
Even the believers wouldn't have predicted that photo. Ten years later. With that caption
JUST FELL TO MY KNEES IN THE MIDDLE OF MY LIVING ROOM SOMEONE CALL 2016 ME SHE IS NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS
one thing i am quite grateful to Brian David Gilbert for is the phrase "If you needed ME to tell you that... I'm glad I told you that."
it has been etched into my brain for the past six years, fundamentally altering how i consider knowledge gaps held by others, as well as myself. people usually need to be told stuff before they can know it! that's how knowing stuff works! this is an extreme example played for laughs but it's a legitimately helpful philosophy!!
do you have that post that's two guys changing a billboard that says "gay is sin" to "gay is in"? i'm starting to fear it only exists in my memory and is no longer of this mortal coil
no no wait i feel like i remember this as well
i have no idea if i have it though or where it exists on tumblr or elsewhere.
tumblr, help please
No idea what the origin is tho
yes, this! thank you
i also do not know the origin tho
When I was about to go to college my dad, who is a thoracic surgeon specialized in lung cancer, sat me down and told me I could be a stoner, but absolutely not a cigarette smoker
His logic was:
He’s operated on hundreds of cig smokers but no stoners
The average stoner doesn’t smoke nearly as many joints as a cig smoker smokes cigarettes. Many cig smokers will smoke 10+ cigs a day but the average stoner doesn’t smoke that many joints
Joints don’t have as many carcinogens
It is generally harder to quit nicotine than weed
People can have medicinal cannabis but no one has medicinal cigarettes
He was a stoner in med school and turned out fine but some of his cig smoking classmates are already dead
@buticaaba you are absolutely correct! My dad hates vapes. He says the lungs of cig smokers look black and kind of like asphalt, and that the lungs of vape smokers retain their pink color but are covered in burn like blisters. He participated in a double lung transplant on a 20 year old vape smoker and has done multiple drainings of vape smoker lungs that filled with fluids because they’re absolutely full of blisters.
When you smoke cigs you’re clogging your lungs with tar and other nasty stuff, but when you hit a vape you’re quite literally giving your lungs chemical burns.
✨ They have a connection ✨
Kevin is the real villian in Home Alone
The movie establishes that the phone lines to the house are down, that’s also why nobody is able to call Kevin at home. The movie also establishes that all of his neighbors are out of town which is why he couldn’t borrow their phones. The movie ALSO BEGINS by introducing the main antagonist as a “police officer” which is why Kevin doesn’t trust the cops. I’m so tired of the ignorance. The slander.
FINALLY we’ve reached the time of year for home alone discourse
#he did what he needed to do to survive. then he did a bunch of other stuff he felt like doing (via @hotcrossedfangs)
home alone is just die hard for kids
He also stole that toothbrush so was even more scared to call the police in case they arrest him for theft too
Kevin knew that ACAB ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Keep in mind that the robbers could have turned around and left at any time. Kevin set up the traps, but they didn’t have to walk into them. They could’ve left and robbed an easier house, but didn’t because they wanted to get the 8-year-old who was beating their asses. At some point, it stopped being about stealing the McCallisters’ stuff and started being about killing Kevin, at which point Kevin was justified in doing whatever the hell he wanted to them.
Skdhsjdhsk okay Home Alone discourse? xD I recognize this is a joke but I’m jumping into the shark pit regardless because I just love this movie and wanna talk about it so HERE GOES
Lol so yeah actually the phone line argument is a bit confusing because yeah the phones are down at first, but they obviously were fixed at some point since his family tried to call him from the airport in Paris or later on he wouldn’t be able to order pizzas or call the cops from his house at the end of the whole attempted robbery night, so there IS the question of why Kevin’s family doesn’t keep trying to call him daily.
HOWEVER, as people have already mentioned, Kevin thinks he’s a criminal due to stealing a toothbrush and has already been chased by a cop, he’s not gonna contact the police about the robbers.
Calling the police about his family leaving him? He’s not gonna do that because he doesn’t KNOW they’re in Paris, Kevin believes he magically wished his family out of existence the night before they left after they were all right dicks to him. He doesn’t know they have the power to come back, that’s why he asks Santa to return them later on, what use is telling the cops who (in his eyes) will probably blame him for it?
Also ppl be criticizing him for the booby traps like this isn’t the THIRD time Kevin’s had to chase these guys off his property? First he tried to fake a house party, they still came back, he tried to fake a MURDER, they spied on him and declared they were coming back again. Kevin’s given them two nonviolent chances to leave his house alone, they’re the grown men deciding they’re gonna come back and rob a house they KNOW has an eight year old in it. They announce their presence by knocking and taunting that they know he’s alone and “helpless” in there and that they’re coming in anyway, what their original plans for dealing with him were, we don’t know. After they spring his first traps, their plan switches from robbing the house to specifically harming Kevin in revenge.
These guys are trespassing on Kevin’s property AGAIN after multiple warnings, and they’ve announced themselves with a declaration of intent to harm him, he can’t call the police or they’ll discover he vanished his family and committed toothbrush crimes, Kevin needed to defend himself and he had FULL RIGHT to do so however he saw fit (which all proved entirely necessary seeing as literally nothing he threw at these men actually stopped them from trying to hurt him, they kept coming until his neighbor saved him)
Respect Kevin 2kforever 😤😤😤

oh by the way, in Danish, "fag" means "subject" and "slut" means "end" so on library shelves you will see "fag slut" to note where the break in book topics is

if the very idea of autism frightens you so much that you would allow your child to die of a preventable disease: you do not deserve to be a parent. i understand that people can be led astray; i understand they have their excuses. i am just never going to forgive any fucking ableist who sat back and pretended like neurodivergence was a fate literally worse than death.
speculative fiction writers i am going to give you a really urgent piece of advice: don't say numbers. don't give your readers any numbers. how heavy is the sword? lots. how old is that city? plenty. how big is the fort? massive. how fast is the spaceship? not very, it's secondhand.
the minute you say a number your readers can check your math and you cannot do math better than your most autistic critic. i guarantee. don't let your readers do any math. when did something happen? awhile ago. how many bullets can that gun fire? trick question, it shoots lasers, and it shoots em HARD.
you are lying to people for fun. if you let them do math at you the lie collapses and it's no fun anymore.
YOU GET IT
