one of my favorite hobbies is not being a parent
“What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; one day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sound of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants brass fronted impudence; your shout of liberty and equality, hallow mockery; your prayers and hyms [sic], your sermons and thanks-givings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy – a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of the United States, at this very hour.”
— Frederick Douglass (1818-1895), from a speech given at Rochester, New York, July 5, 1852.
usamerican soldier STUNNED into silence when he learns that his willing and paid participation in the murder and neocolonization of foreign people is a huge red flag to everyone with a conscience
usamerican civilian stunned to learn that justifying and defending this willing and paid participation (even tho it's the only way to go to college/get a job/whatever nice thing that is apparently worth more than other people's lives and freedoms) is an equally huge red flag fr fr fr
Veterans are literally the fucking problem bc they chose to go and kill people for the US empire - they are not victims of exploitation, most of them are proud of what they did, and the 'betrayal' they whine about is how they didn't get paid in enough blood money for murdering people for oil.
yea

Erika in Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper
Even in a world where Barbie and the diamond castle exists the Fairytopia trilogy is, to me, THE Barbie Yuri of all time Elina gets a new girl hot for her every movie
I'm in my Barbie movies era.
I thought I told you to leave Mermaidia alone. You did. I didn't listen.

Loved drawing all her dresses, now I want one irl
And here's some rough Bibble sketches because Bibble is awesome
Barbie movies have a weird trend of attempted regicide/usurpation. Here's the movies that have them:
Nutcracker: unpopular prince is turned into a nutcracker and kicked out
Rapunzel: princess is stolen as a baby, leaving the kingdom with no heir
Swan Lake: villain tries to infiltrate the royal family by having his daughter disguise herself and marry the prince
P&TP: villain tries to kill the princess, frame it as an accident, and marry her mother, the queen.
Pegasus: villain petrifies entire kingdom to get 2 different princesses to marry him
Mermaidia: prince is kidnapped to extract information
12 Dancing Princesses: villain tries to poison the king and imprison the princesses to take over the throne
Island Princess: villain tries to force the prince to marry her daughter so she can infiltrate the royal family
Mariposa: villain tries to poison/kill the queen
3 Musketeers: villain tries to kill the prince before he can become king to take over the throne
Mermaid Tale: villain imprisons the queen and tries to imprison her daughter and takes over the throne
Princess Charm School: villain ACTUALLY killed the whole royal family except for the princess so she and her daughter could take the throne
Mermaid Tale 2: same villain tries to take over again, with a slightly different plot.
There's also a lot of environmental destruction plots, but that's for another post.

How is your takeaway from this "oh no! They are banning asexuality!" They are banning being LGBTQIA+. They are just using a modern woke version of the acronym to define who they persecute. De facto they will only go after asexual people that go to pride parades or start advocacy groups or something. They're not gonna arrest you for not filling your sex quota lol
I’m going to respond to this with the assumption this was NOT!! originally posted with bad intent, but we’ll see if I can keep up that line of thinking.
Firstly, the OP of the tweet just happened to cut off the name of the subreddit this was posted to. Turns out it was posted to r/Asexual. You know. The subreddit dedicated to talking about asexuality and related things. It makes sense that the original poster and a mod of that very subreddit would emphasize the inclusion of asexuality in Niger’s article 25.
Here’s a link to the actual Reddit post btw
Secondly, while all persecution of queer identities is evil and unjust, it is significant to point out asexuality being included. Most of the time laws don’t go into specifying more than gay or trans identities when it comes to trying to bar rights to individuals. This article has go so far to break down and specify the meaning of every single letter in LGBTQIA and call them all an “act against nature” to justify punishing anyone under the banner. It makes sense to, again, emphasize that asexuality was also included when this was posted in the r/Asexual subreddit.
And thirdly, and this is kinda the most important part imo, this means ANYONE CAN BE ACCUSED AND PERSECUTED UNDER THIS CHARTER. People in the subreddit and even the OP of the tweet are asking “how can you even prove that?” And that’s the thing. You can’t. So it makes it that much easier to just accuse someone of asexuality in order to force them into a heterosexual relationship or punish them.
Think about it. What’s stopping a bitter ex or an abusive spouse from accusing their partner of “denying sex due to their asexual tendencies” in order to punish them? Maybe someone is career driven or just not interested in a relationship at the time. What’s stopping a business rival, a jilted flirt, or an obsessed stalker from leaving an anonymous tip that the object of their ire is an asexual deviant? Absolutely nothing.
Taking this post and dismissing it as “no one cares you don’t want to fuck” is completely missing the point on why this is exceptionally dangerous. And acting like a mod of the r/Asexual subreddit is being silly for putting emphasis on the dangers to their community is rude at best.
The fact that everyone with a queer identity now can face prison time and ridiculous fines is terrifying and it breaks my heart to know more and more countries are baking these laws into their charters and constitutions. But we should be bringing these things into the light and condemning the people pushing for this kind of cruelty, not throwing stones at each other for pointing out a specific part of the article that affects us personally.
Uplift your fellow queers. Don’t do the CIA’s job for them and try to tear our community apart with useless infighting.
I've not identified as ace for quite some time but like... People realise that asexuality is super subversive right? Like, a lot of liberal gay rights wins in the 2010s were marketed as "they want to be normal and get married and have married sex and get kids to raise while they are married" and aroace people completely overthrow that idea because there is a group of queer people whose identity actively opposes amatonormativity. Many queer criminalising laws are put in place to encourage conformity and decrease the likelihood of social unrest and for a WHILE the institution of marriage has been a brilliant way to do this. Any feminist/historian/anyone who can think about the concept of arranged marriage can tell you that but for our purposes here marriage and kids provides one singular goal for everyone to aspire to. Asexual and aromantic identities stand in direct opposition to this goal, hence the direct targeting. TLDR yes this is part of a wider anti queer agenda but aphobia is real and I will not have anyone claiming otherwise (not having a go I definitely agree with the idea that this is a wider anti queer law but you guys know that asexuality gets discriminated against right???)
