Comeback, a work in progress

Lyrics:

as the world heats up and the ice caps melt

there are screaming children bleeding out

and we’re busy fighting amongst ourselves

instead of doing anything about

one step forward and ten steps back

every day another story to keep us off track

they let us die and take away our rights

and call us ungrateful if we try to fight

this is the plan that runs so deep

the dead stay quiet and the living sleep

we're so busy being someone else's sheep

that we don't hear the wolves at the door

as the world heats up and the ice caps melt

there are screaming children bleeding out

and we’re busy fighting amongst ourselves

instead of doing anything about

we build walls to keep each other out

instead of building bridges to end doubt

the bigwigs lie and twist the truth

while our empathy withers, uncouth

we work harder but fall behind

and who we are has become a crime

our minds have been poisoned with grime

we’ve gotta fix it, now’s the time

we need to rise up and walk tall

together we can break these walls

the chains of oppression must fall

are you listening, this is the call

People don't like to admit it bcs cringe or w/e but Homestuck really did revolutionize the webcomic as a storytelling medium and I am endlessly frustrated that before webcomic artists could really stretch our legs fucking webtoonz swooped in, set a new, more restrictive standard, and then monetized and monopolized the ever living fuck out of the concept of The Webcomic until it drove away anyone who couldn't be a professional quality manga artist for free, and now the only webcomics that actually feel like spiritual successors to Homestuck are so obscure they're basically cult classics that you have to beg people to read.

Like it's just so wild to be in high school and see Homestuck be like "we're using like fifteen different artistic mediums to tell this story bcs we can" and be really fucking inspired by that, only to grow up and see basically every webcomic ever have to conform to One Single Standard or fucking perish.

uuh I’m not even saying this but Homestuck didn’t revolutionize anything

source: been reading webcomics since way before Homestuck existed

Y’all I learned there’s a limit of 30 tags on Tumblr today.

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators

My brother's girlfriend had HPV, so he went to get himself the HPV vaccine. There is a fee to pay (nothing much, something like €87) but it's completely free if you're in one of the "at risk" groups.

"What does that mean," he asks. "It's free if you're gay," he's told. "Ah. Would I have to like, prove it, or...?" "Just put in a check mark here."

My brother is in no way, shape or form attracted to men, but also he's stingy as it gets. So now he's officially gay. Congrats bro.

"Doctor, give it to me straight" "You sure, there's a fee" "… Give it to me gay"
