after seeing the eras tour movie twice in one weekend, I can officially say that tay is my idol, hero, role model, and celebrity crush
I am completely obsessed with Willow. Don't worry about it.
It truly means so much to me the way the white characters in The Acolyte aren't main characters, or if they do have a bigger role they are non-human characters like Jecki and Master Vernestra. Like for once it's not on sight that I clock tokenism or dehumanized BIPOC characters. For once in Star Wars I'm seeing a reversed ratio of white to non white. For so long it's been 4 white for every 1 non white character. I want to go back in time and tell the 8 year old me that our time is coming.
ok looks like we're gonna be doing the same thing, different verse, now that it's Kamala Harris on the Dem ticket instead of Joe Biden.
friendly reminder that one of these 2 people is getting elected. there's not a magical 3rd party person who's mystical and perfectly progressive who is gonna come out of the woodwork and save us. not voting or voting 3rd party isn't a "protest," it's capitulation. so let's do a comparison:
I forgot to add to this that Trump also stated he will deport any non-citizen who protests the war in Gaza.
In case you don't believe me re: the last Trump point.
hi! i love your contrapuntal poems so so much, and i was wondering if you had any advice on how you write them? like what your process is like and how you match them up!
- @cowboy-heart
Hey there! Okay, in my experience, writing two poems and then trying to match them up so that it makes a third one is almost impossible. What I do instead is this:
I write one poem (usually the left side, for some reason), so it looks like this
And THEN I start to write both the second and third poems and the same time
From here ^^ you start to write it diagonally, I guess? Every time you add a line to the right side, it has to make sense both vertically in the second poem by itself, and horizontally in the third poem.
This version of the left side is what I consider to be the "raw" version- all of the line breaks are completely arbitrary
- don't be constrained by these line breaks! make your own! see the difference i made between the first picture and the second picture? "he is our brother;" works better with "he never let me play alone."
Pro tip: semicolons are your FRIENDS because they can act like commas or periods
ta-da! does this make sense?
try it! tag me! enjoy!
The dehumanization of Palestinians in mainstream media and news is massive, I have never seen it this bad in my entire life and it has been abhorrent long before this. It terrifies me to know how widespread it has become especially throughout the imperial core - however - I have also never seen this many people talk about Palestine, either. Palestinian liberation is something on a lot of people's minds now, solidarity efforts are global and I've seen people from all corners of the globe voicing their support. It's astounding

Kit: Dare.
Jade: Kit, you have to sleep.
Kit: Uggghh, I hate this game.
