I feel like I need to say this, even though I know saying it won't help in any tangible way. This blog is 100% on the side of Palestine. Israel is built on stolen land and that land belongs to Palestinians.

To say that Israelis have an ancestral claim to that land is like if I went back to my childhood home, broke in while the family that lives there now was out, changed the locks, and said it was my right to do so and that the family could go sleep in the garden shed.

And I understand, in a way, why Israel would do what they have done. It is basic trauma psychology: When you have been hurt severely and made to feel powerless, it feels so good to hurt others in the same way. It makes you feel like you are in control, like you will never be hurt again. When you have been subject to genocide, it feels good to enact genocide on others. Unfortunately, you are still a monster for doing it.

Before you bring up Hamas, there is nothing Hamas could ever have done that would justify what Israel is doing now. Especially because the vast majority of the victims of the current horror have no affiliation with Hamas. Israel has extracted its toll in blood for October 7th a dozen times over, from children alone.

Do not bother trying to argue with me. You will be blocked immediately. I'm going to go buy an e-sim now.

I want to sincerely apologize for the assininity I perpetuated when I was younger and dumber. Unfortunately it will happen again

Say it with me folks

Intrusive thoughts are distressing and repulsive to the person thinking them! That's why they're called intrusive!

Impulsive thought: What if I ate soap?

Intrusive thought: What if I drank bleach?

Impulsive thought: What if I trip my friend?

Intrusive thought: What if I stab my friend?

Impulsive thought: What if I cut all my hair off?

Intrusive thought: What if I cut all my fingers off?

Impulsive thought: What if I jump into the lake?

Intrusive thought: What if I jump off the cliff?

Impulsive thought: What if I punch my sibling?

Intrusive thought: What if I rape my sibling?

Know the difference!

Did you know the Earth is the only known planet with a moon that is the right distance from the planet so that it appears the exact same size as the sun, and makes total solar eclipses possible? What a miraculous planet we live on!

They should've called Stan "Stein" in the English dub since their coat of arms is Albert Einstein

Fucking seriously?

Witness and suffer.

I need a chewelry shaped like a bullet for two reasons:

1. It would help combat the infantilization of autistic adults by being a very mature item instead of something that looks like a toy

2. So I can say I'm "biting the bullet"

Okay, I'm gonna say it. Huilian Jiang made the right choice choosing her career that she'd worked towards her whole life over her boyfriend. The fact that he went off the deep end is HIS fault, not hers. He chose how he reacted to that.

A proper anime boy

Some fucking creature

At first I thought y'all were calling Laios autistic just cause he was obsessed with something weird, but no he really is autistic isn't he

Hot take Scissor Seven would've been twice as good if Redtooth had been a lesbian woman.

Think about it. Chairman Jiang is first introduced by trying to destroy a man solely because he likes to collect and wear women's underwear. Her entire character is centered around a very strict, cisnormative idea of "purity." Then her and Redtooths' backstory is revealed, and you find out about the whole drama with the white lotus purity school, their feelings for each other, and how she lost everything and he let himself be possessed by a demon because romantic relationships were forbidden to them.

Think about how the context would have changed if it had been a queer relationship. Redtooth, bitter and angry not just because she couldn't have the woman she loved, but because any romantic feelings she expressed, no matter how "pure" and non-sexual, would be treated as monstrous. Deciding that if she was going to be a monster no matter what, she might as well look like one. Then Huilian Jiang, doing everything she can to erase this part of herself but unable to deny it, burying her feelings deep inside her and trying to handle the guilt she feels by enforcing the queerphobia she was taught.

Also then the show would actually pass the Bechdel Test.

Nobody is listening when we say "Genocide," so maybe we need to start using the only other word that accurately describes what's happening in Gaza right now: Holocaust.

Fuckin ironic that the same people who think conversion therapy works believe you'll always be your birth gender no matter what you do
