Cuba has run out of diesel and oil, energy minister says

The minister says the situation in Cuba is "extremely tense", as a US-led blockade of oil to the country causes widespread power cuts.

Fucking sickening, heartbreaking, disgusting. Hospitals, ambulances, water pumps, so much infrastructure shut down and so many lives hurt and lost because of it, all of this at the whim of the world's most brutal empire because they can't stand to have their will resisted so close to their shores by a society that has chosen time and time again to stand proud for the dream of a better world, a world without this blood-soaked hegemony.

I don't think there's any way to help Cuba get fuel directly, but links below if you want to help them with other goods in this terrible time

CSC campaigns in the UK against the US blockade of Cuba and for the Cuban peoples' right to self-determination and sovereignty

ive said it a billion times before but more ppl would love the music we made if they just didnt hate black people like so many people just refuse to listen to genres by black ppl and miss out on so so so so much music theyd love and they only get exposed to it when a nonblack steals it or imitates it poorly like u bitches r missing out bc ur scared of r&b and rap 😭

[anglaised]

no but fr tho it is terrifying how racism is not a dealbreaker for most people like they just say its bad to look polite……scary ass people

[anglaised]

“those poor tradwives are doing bdsm wrong!” they are making entire communities built on the idea that they have to “save” the human race* (*white people) by having as many white children as possible and convincing other white people to push back on reproductive rights and purposefully cause the deaths of brown babies because they think we r ruining the planet by being brown, i dont give a fuck if it was somehow about kink, these women and their families and friends are apart of our society and they r literally getting poc killed can we focus on that

[anglaised]

theres a reason u associate east asians with femininity and black people with masculinity and it has nothing to do with actual masculine or feminine “behavior” and everything to do with race science 😭 u have been taught race science, u haven’t unlearned race science 😭😭😭😭 READ A BOOK ABOUT RACISMMMM

[crazysodomite]

The popularity of the "incompetent stupid piece of shit husband and competent wife who loves him anyways" trope in media is a psyop to make women believe its normal to settle for an incompetent stupid piece of shit husband

[crazysodomite]

But if a woman acted incompetent once then she will be literally crucified in the street and she's evil for manipulating her husband into settling for less and suddenly it's not a silly endearing sitcom trope 🤔

Fun fact, OP! The way you've drawn Tenna in the last panel is the perfect size to fit on a standard 27x27 fusebead pegboard!

Less fun fact, I am out of black fuse beads-

[verysadpaper]

OMG THATS AWESOME. I’m honored my little Tenna could act as inspiration for you! I hope you can find more black beads soldier 🫡

also I don't think parents "these days" are uniquely terrible, I just think neglect is showing up in new ways as technology progresses. today's ipad kid would've been wandering around in a ditch alone all day and night before. parents not wanting to have to deal with children is not a new phenomenon.

(IM NOT THE CREATOR OF ALL THESE CONCEPTS, it goes without saying that a lot of these ideas came from other Deltarune theorists and bingo boards)

It's always "stop harming yourself or we'll have to lock you up!!!" and never "what do you need to change to want to harm yourself less and how can we help you make some of these changes?" and that's why we're not getting anywhere

[storyweavingspider]

Dead serious I think a lot of the current state of affairs can be attributed to the fact that for some reason we stopped punching white supremacists as the default. Brief but glorious period of time in US culture where being publicly racist was met with ass beating by more than just Black folks.

[storyweavingspider]

Need whites to start bringing this energy back instead of missing 20 different attempts at one person

[storyweavingspider]

Like I talk about being an Abolitionist a lot and believing in the intrinsic value of life/only seeing death/murder/etc. as an absolute last resort

However, to be clear, I am NOT a pacifist and in the words of Nina Simone, I ain’t bout to be non-violent honey.

They’re killing trans women, particularly Black trans women, as they always have and will keep doing in increasingly horrific ways. No amount of protests will keep us safe. Cops definitely ain’t gonna keep us safe - over in Philly they beat and arrested 15 people at a pride event in the Gayborhood while the “official” city pride event was apparently costing $10 per person minimum.

They’re abducting racialized people off the streets and occupying entire US cities like DC and Memphis with the explicit goal of disappearing as many of us as they can, regardless of “citizenship”, visas, or anything else.

Black people are being actively lynched. Black CHILDREN in particular have been found lynched after being “missing”. I can literally go on Twitter or Facebook for less than a minute and discover a new lynching or murder of a trans woman.

We are especially being taken when we are alone, when others leave us alone, when others do nothing.

We have to be willing to protect ourselves and each other if and when needed. We need to get a lot more comfortable with ACTION not just words, with not turning away when we see something happening before we get caught up in it.

Will the person you saw and turned away from go missing?

Will they be dead next, or worse?

Even if you can’t stop it, can you get their name? Can you record it? Find their families?

It cant just be us fighting always, especially as things get worse. You have to start moving too.

Punch a white supremacist, but don’t let it stop there. Don’t keep turning away just because it’s hard. You have to be willing to act.

[werewolf-transgenderism]

irritating as fuck when people get mad at Black people existing in premodern historical fiction/fantasy media. like first of all, you're racist. and second of all, you are acting as though Black people didn't exist in premodern Europe which is simply false. especially when we're talking about the Mediterranean, like what the fuck do you people think is along the southern half of the Mediterranean Ocean?? everyone's on boats, there are GOING to be interactions with Black people in Northern Africa, and there are GOING to be Black people in Mediterranean Europe. stop being stupid. your imagined homogeneous white European past is not historical reality, get over it you massive losers

[abyss-in-machines]

We owe it all to them.
