a negroliberal is just a temporarily embarrassed black conservative. hope this helps
hip local coffee place is holding a book swap and people are unloading their Neil Gaimans en masse like whole sacks of cursed amulets
"girl dad" this, "girl dad" that. if im being honest you guys are so fucking weird about gender roles and bioessentialism
"the world isn't kind" ok??? Much more importantly are you?????
"we just dont know why the Iraq war happened!!" is an unbelievably stupid take even for this website
When Everything Everywhere All at Once said “The only thing I do know is that we have to be kind. Please, be kind, especially when we don’t know what’s going on"
When the Good Place said “Why choose to be good every day when there is no guaranteed reward now or in the afterlife… I argue that we choose to be good because of our bonds with other people and our innate desire to treat them with dignity. Simply put, we are not in this alone.”
When Jean-Paul Sartre said ”‘Hell is other people’ is only one side of the coin. The other side, which no one seems to mention, is also ‘Heaven is each other’. Hell is separateness, uncommunicability, self-centeredness, lust for power, for riches, for fame. Heaven on the other hand is very simple, and very hard: caring about your fellow beings.“

Elon Musk just did the sieg heil at the inauguration???? DOG?
there's part of me that finds the musk situation amusing. exactly what part of "apartheid emerald mine" or "nazi descendent" ever made people think he was admirable. or was it all of that unexamined internalized white supremacy?
anyway
if you're feeling powerless right now—and god knows I am—here's a reminder you can donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds, the Trans Law Center, Gaza Soup Kitchen, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, and hundreds of other charities that will work to mitigate the damage that has been and will continue to be inflicted
life continues. we still have the capacity to do good, important work. that matters
*gritting my teeth* the only way out is through and by god im taking all of you with me
the most depressing part is that it's not even kamala's stance on genocide that is costing her the elections. i wish it were. it's people genuinely shifting for trump. but it's the pro-palestine movement that's going to get the blame for it.
democrats (and liz cheney) begging for george w bush's endorsement and acting like his "silence" in not endorsing kamala is the worst most indefensible thing he's ever done in his entire life………… god you really can just kill 4 million people in the middle east and american liberals will simply not hold that against you at all

too many u.s. zionists won't admit the reason they're zionists is because they fell for the pretty celebrity propaganda. absolutely empty-headed
cannot imagine what it must be like to be a liberal who champions terrible shit and people your whole life. i hope those people are careful not to hurt others with their behavior. and consider others people and not someone to fill a pre-defined role as a means to a self-absorbed end. the gender essentialism i keep seeing in blue magas is alarming. now why can it co-exist peacefully with liberalism. that's a question
Friendly reminder that there's always somebody out there predicting the imminent end of the world. I've lived through a bunch of predicted apocalypses throughout my life and not a one of them has ever happened. The world won't end this time, either.
half of mohammed's family is still sleeping on the streets. his own conditions are dire and he's terrified for their safety. the water is poison, the heat is suffocating, food and medicine are priced exorbitantly.

there is no amount of "contributions to society" that justifies the intentional subjugation of specially selected people groups (which by design maintains the artificial elevation and social and historical preciousness of such "contributors" in the first place). idc how often somebody quotes some poetry or holds up a watch. fuck that. whole apparatus down to the language is blood garbage and unmarked graves. At least stop lying even if you can't fix it
