In the first gif, you can see the loading icon like "say sike right now". Moreover, if an issue is dumbed down to literally "show me with the dolls" kind of explanation and people don't get it... Yikes

i’ve mentioned this here before, but it will remain one of the most ideologically influential experiences of my life: when i was in fifth grade i did a report on post traumatic stress as manifested in veterans of the vietnam war, and my father did me the huge favor of connecting me w/ a vietnam vet friend of his who was diagnosed with PTSD, assuring him that while i was only ten i was bright and curious and he should be as honest with me about his experience as possible.
i remember entering his office with my tape recorder, sitting in a chair that was too big, and asking him questions about war, and his life after war, while swinging my legs over the edge of the chair. i remember being very, very quiet as he spoke of pulling the car over on the highway for fear of crashing when his hands would shake uncontrollably in response to song on the radio or a smell that he couldn’t be sure was real or sense-memory. and of ruined relationships and anger and american hypocrisy.
and i also remember that was the day i learned what “valor” meant. he used “valor” in a sentence and i didn’t know that word, and when i asked him to explain “valor” he became very quiet. and i can’t remember precisely what he said, if he ever offered me the dictionary definition or not, but i do remember him looking very sad, and saying something about our country’s idea of “valor”, and also something about a broken promise. and there was an edge to his words that i couldn’t parse at the time that i would later come to understand was bitterness, that he sounded bitter.
to this day i can’t hear or read the word “valor” without seeing sunlight coming through his office window at a slant, close-to-sunset light, and feeling the kind of quiet, confused, completely internalized panic a child feels when they sense that a grown up is trying very hard not to weep in their presence.
I can't draw guns, but anyway, here :)
You stare at the skeletal figure in full tactical gear, rifle held nonchalantly in his hands. “I got tired of chasing the runners,” Death says, “This seemed easier.”

ID: two young, fluffy colorpoint cats mill about on the floor. The larger cat, Jasper, briefly rears up and peeps musically. A human laughs. "Ohoho! Beep beep beep? What you got to say?" The cats keep orbiting, the human trying to get their attention. "Junie? Junie? Jasper!" Jasper rears up and shoves his nose in the camera and grabs at the phone. He slides down with a little "Mrow!" and immediately bonks his head on a nearby box. There is a wheezing laugh and the video cuts out. /ID
