This is more punk than the whole of punk history.

I’ll tell you what’s ferocious. Freddie’s comeback to Sid calling him “Freddie Platinum” when they were recording down the hall from each other at London’s Wessex Studios (Queen for News of the World, Pistols for Bollocks).

Sid Vicious made the mistake one day of bursting into Queen’s control room and antagonizing their frontman. “Have you succeeded in bringing ballet to the masses, then?” he sneered. “Oh, yes, Simon Ferocious,” Mercury replied. “We’re trying our best, dear.” 

Then, according to Queen biographer Daniel Nester, Freddie rose from his chair and began to playfully flick the safety pins displayed on the front of Sid’s leather jacket. “Tell me,” he asked, “did you arrange these pins just so?” When Sid stepped forward in an attempt to intimidate Freddie, the singer simply pushed him backwards and inquired, “What are you going to do about it?” Sid immediately backed down.

Freddie Mercury may very well have had the biggest dick energy of anyone who ever lived

Like I'm not going to vote for a man who's outright denying a genocide is even happened DO YOU HEAR YOURSLEVES?

There's gonna be a "leak" that'll say Biden has sternly wagged his left finger at netanyahu and then with his right hand he'll sign off on more billions for Israel. You want me to vote for someone who's made it clear that none of my interests are his interests. He's using my money for shit I don't want it to be used for. Pray tell, why the fuck would I vote for him?

@nimthirielrinon someone who's exactly like him who will get the exact same amount of support on this endeavor as every other. So, a red fascist vs a blue fascist. Neither of them has my interests at heart. Neither of them wants to protect me or my friends. Neither of them cares about anyone but white men and continuing the American imperial project. And no self righteous condescending liberal who boogeymans about the perils of a trump presidency in face of all the harm Biden has done both domestically and abroad is going to convince me to vote for Biden. Biden doesn't even like Black people like lmao I truly wonder what it is that liberals like you see in Biden when he's abandoned every single marginalized person both domestically and abroad. Voting in Biden stops what, exactly? Don't say fascism, because it's already here (look at how our only options are Red Party and Blue Party. Look at literally everything about the US). Look at how trans rights are collapsing across the US and Biden can hardly eek out a word against it. Look at how women's reproductive health and physical safety is under real threat across the US. Look at how Biden gave money to cops in 2020 and has continued to do so. Look at how the Biden administration has deported more migrants than trump. Look at how Biden abandoned disabled people with how he treated COVID and masking. Look at how often Biden goes out of his way to support Israel with the help of Congress of every single time. Except that one time he/his administration went over their heads to approve an arms sale to Israel. But there's no doubt they would have supported him anyways if he'd given them the chance. Look at how Biden said "nothing will fundamentally change" if he's elected. He was kinda wrong about that, actually. Things have gotten worse. Exponentially worse.

You're a racist and a spineless coward. Sorry genocide and innocent men, women, and children isn't a hard line for you. Sorry none of the blown apart bodies, injured, sick, disabled, and displaced Palestinians means anything to you. Sorry the violence against Palestinians here means nothing to you. Sorry you think bitching in my replies is the way to go. Sorry white supremacy isn't bad enough for you to admit that there's no real difference between Biden and Trump. Sorry your only stance is "we have vote for this man who supports genocide and hates your guts because if not then the other guy who supports genocide and hates your guts will win".

Again w the smug liberal condescension that can never elaborate on what material things Biden is going to do for a group of people whom he fundamentally does not respect. The biggest threat to my life is police brutality and medical racism because I am a Black woman/person in America. It's beneath me at this point to even entertain someone who's made it clear in their words that they don't care about me, about Black people, or about palestinians. Techniques they're using in Israel to suppress Palestinians are used here to put down Black people and vice versa.

Obviously you don't care about any of that. It's just "uhhh you don't remember 2016 to 2020". Idk where you live that daily life has gotten safer for people of color generally, but let me remind you that a few months ago a Palestinian boy was stabbed to death. Three palestinian college students were shot and one is now paralyzed. Police brutality has gone up, not down. Wages are shit, healthcare is shit, everything is shit. Part of growing up is realizing that just because the violence isn't apparent doesn't mean it's not still there.

Again, your response just shows how little you actually care about the people you want me to assume you claim to. Disgusting.

I think these tags highlight an important factor.

The loudest VoteBlue folks are white liberals who are on the cusp of fitting into (or being excluded from) the white mainstream.

They think Biden will extend the white mainstream just enough for them to be comfortable and hate anyone rocking the boat.

I'm queer and disabled too. And Biden needs to stop killing people in Gaza before he gets any support from me.

Biden is the President. Biden is vetoing UN resolutions. Biden is shipping new weapons to Israel. Biden just signed a bill that forbids US embassies from flying pride flags, because it also provides money for Israel to kill Palestinians.

He said he doesn't like that part of the bill he signed. I don't care about his crocodile tears.

Liberals have taken the easiest moral test of recent memory and utterly failed it.

Hell, they have failed it despite it being a political loser for Biden.

Biden's policies are what is going to put Trump back in the White House, not my criticism.

Hey remember not to fall for this type of stuff- For those not old enough to remember, or was before your time like me, we've fucking tried this. Again and again. And with the current two party system, where you can only vote for one person rather than your ordered top picks like Australia does, means that your options are vote for the lesser danger or hold the door open for the greater evil.

I recommend everyone looks up and reads about the 2000 American election, where a good amount of people voted for the green party to show their support for climate change and a candidate who promised to do something about it but rather than the voting split evenly, it was just democratic votes that then went to the third party. If you remember, that's how George Bush won.

And keep in mind that "moral arguments" like this actually help the republicans win. You're completely correct that Genocide Joe is a horrible human being with weak foreign policy and even poorer domestic standing. That's not the issue here. The issue is that the only other option is Project 2025 and the end of democracy and the United States as we know it. That's not an exaggeration. The Supreme Court ruled that any crime done by the President of the United States is exempt from prosecution as long as the President is using their Presidential Powers. That was this week.

If you want actual, tangible change, you have to vote every single time. In every election you are eligible, local and national. Politics is a slow game towards progress that can very easily slide into right wing and fascist hands if you don't keep playing. It's not fun, it's not fast, but it is necessary.

LIberal demons will not get on my post, a post made by a BLACK QUEER PERSON talking about all the forms of violence i and others like me are facing or at risk of facing, to say that every word out of my mouth is a trick or lie and something that can be "fallen for"

BIDEn gave more money to police officers after ALL OF AMERICA and PEOPLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES were protesting in SUPPORT of George Floyd.

Racist pieces of shit calling the genuine fears of minorities "moral arguments" unelievably racist (and homophobic, classist, sexist, etc). Not that you care. You're telling a marginalized person to vote for a man who has proven he wants me dead.

"b b b but project 2025" is being led into the US by the democrats currently in power and has been in motion since the REAGAN ADMINISTRATION. The parts of P25 that liberals fear monger about the most have foundations going back DECADES. DECADES. They have foundations that democrats are enacting RIGHT NOW. Jailing homeless poeple. militarization. genocide. anti-masking as part of the mass disabling event known as COVID. anti masking as part of the surveillance state. disaster capitalism. the shock doctrine. youre truly one of the most vile and nasty liberals ive ever had the misfortune of encountering.

i hope whatever evil and painful thing God has planned for you gets multiplied tenfold.

"youre right that biden is killing people domestically and committing genocide but that's not the issue here"

#I'm obsessed with the fact that Jackie and Ruby go to the same bar, which could mean nothing.

starting an elite paramilitary black ops group who sneak into the homes of authors and cut one to three zeroes off any number of years given in a fantasy or sci-fi novel

"this important historical event in my fantasy world happend 10,000 years ago" like fuck it did you lying asshole. you know what 10,000 years ago looks like to Us? the fuckin start of the neolithic period! hjow many important historical events from then are we all still worried about dipshit?

see no hate to you tumblr user s-ock-s but this is like a perfect example of the phenomenon i'm being sarky about which is that people really badly underestimate how long big lenghts of time are in terms of human history:

ea nasir was only 3,800 years ago. which is still a fucklong time but it is small peanuts compared to 10,000 years ago! something that happened 10,000 years ago is nearly three times past from ea-nasir than ea-nasir is from us. 10,000 years is a very, very very long time (on the timescale of human history--for a rock, it's nothing. but i'm not comlaining about geological worldbuilding here)

Adobe is going to spy on your projects. This is insane.

For general graphics: use GIMP For vector graphics: use Inkscape For drawing and illustration: use Krita For print and web publishing and design: use Penpot For PDF authoring: use LibreOffice For PDF reading and form filling: use Okular

All are free, open source and cross-platform. None use AI.

Friends, enemies, whoever: there is a massive, money-soaked rightwing voter suppression effort targeting social media users who identify as progressive and/or are seen as potential Democratic supporters. Let's all keep that in mind, okay? Let's not make accidental unpaid operatives of ourselves, all right?

Please return us to a world where Notp and squick are used for a ship you don’t like instead of just making up a load of bullshit about how immoral it is or w/e lol 

a short selection of concepts and phrases that used to be commonplace in fandom and we’d really benefit from making that a thing again:

NOTP: the opposite of an OTP (One True Pairing). It is a ship a fan strongly dislikes. The word is a portmanteau of ‘no’ and ‘OTP’ and thus is not a contraction of any particular phrase.

Squick: anything that is a deep-seated, visceral turn-off. Squicks may be shared by many fans or be specific to one; one person’s kink may be another person’s squick.

YKINMKATO, or kink-tomato: Your Kink Is Not My Kink, And That’s Okay: used to indicate support for fannish diversity and to distinguish between disapproval or kink shaming and simply having different taste.

DLDR: Don’t Like, Don’t Read: a phrase used to warn against complaints about an aspect of fic or meta. A “live and let live” philosophy of fandom, which places the responsability for avoiding content one doesn’t want to see on the side of the fanwork consumer, rather that on the creator’s.

SALS: Ship And Let Ship: similar to the above specifically about shipping tastes.

YMMV: Your Mileage May Vary: a phrase used to acknowledge that any given individual’s personal opinion on the topic at hand may differ due to their own tastes, standards, values, experiences, etc.

As the OP points out, all of these crucially imply no moral judgment of what they’re designing.

(definitions lifted more or less wholesale from fanlore’s relevant pages)

bring the healthy fun back to fandom!

If ever a time comes when I don’t reblog this when it appears on my dash, assume I’m dead

Let’s bring this back

What kind of position is he filming these videos in? Is he laying on his stomach, kicking his feet in the air?

hate to ruin the illusion buuut

Horrendous choice. Truly one of the creators of all time

that is a fascinating choice, think of all the extra effort to produce the illusion of something easy

“bi women bringing their cis-” bi women can do whatever they want shut up

fifteen: quick question what's worse: killing every living being in creation or killing the guy who wants to kill every living being in creation

ruby: first one

mel: first one yeah

kate: definitely the first one

fifteen: results unclear i will now use this as another reason to hate myself ✌️

I love that when the Doctor falls for women, they're the coolest most badass people (think of River, Rose, Yaz, Romana, etc.), but when they fall for men they're always loser nerds (Fitz, Rogue, Koschei). they've got the best taste in women and the worse in men. that's real bi/pan representation there.

I haven't seen this circulating here on Tumblr, so I decided to make my own post.

last saturday, in Porto, there was a pride parade going down the street and this old man was standing there, by his front door, waving the portuguese flag. most people on the parade probably thought the same: old person waving the national flag? he's probably protesting against the parade, he's a nationalist of some sort.

then the old man called for that person to come near him. the whole parade stopped. everyone just.. stopped moving. they didn't know what to expect, and most expected the worst. and that person decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and approached the old man. and then... they traded flags, he hugged the person and then he waved the pride flag happily. everyone cheered him.

such a wholesome moment. 🥹❤️🌈
