seeing people (and by people I mean. not even russians) already speaking about the whole thing going on in Russia as if it were a fucking quirky joke. “Oh I’m considered an extremist in this country I don’t live in at all! Uwu!” “LOLZ I’m proud to be deemed a danger in Russia!” “PROUD ASSIGNED LGBT EXTREMIST BY RUSSIAN LAW” You know this shit is very likely going to get people killed right. Like. You know that, right. People are very likely going to die because of this law. And you know you’re not helping in the fucking slightest right

I need to people to take it seriously for a bit. Tonight the police had raided several gay club in Moscow. They claimed they were called because of drugs which is definitely not true. This is fear mongering at its most obvious. People were hurt. Police officers were taking pictures of people’s passports, you should understand that their information will be used in the future to further the oppression. They want people to get hurt. A club in Saint Petersburg had stayed that they were denied rent because of the new ‘law’. It’s not a joke or a funny tweet to laugh at and get your one minute of social media validation for your sorry ass.

Russian LGBTQIA+ joke about it because it’s a coping mechanism. Sure, make jokes but remember that first and foremost it’s a dangerous reality for many.

Yan Dvorkin - a trans activist who helped thousands of people (including me) - left the country with his husband and with only a couple of bags. Months before that, he had his disabled child taken away, then he was taken to court and fined for his activism and if he stayed, he would be charged with extremism for sure. Terrible torture often resulting in death, inhuman conditions, constant humiliation are the things that happen to activists and lgbt people in prison. So, everyone who could ran from the country. I can't run yet, so I keep my head down and try not to leave any traces of my existence on social media because people absolutely have gotten prison sentences for leaving a comment. I'm always scared and exhausted, so are my friends.

It's not a joke and Russian government doesn't think you're a danger - they just think you're a degenerate subhuman not deserving of any rights. Please, have empathy

You go into a creepy mansion and there's a cloaked figure learning how to play the organ from a YouTube tutorial on their phone. You leave them to it.

I want this to be an Easter egg for speed runners in a video game. You normally find the boss playing the organ if you play for the normal like 20+ hours that you would be required in a standard playthrough, but if you horse tilt noclip through the castle in BK mode you find the boss taking a piano lesson.

The way they're acting like "ceasefire" means "go blow yourselves up" is just. A ceasefire is nothing. It's less than the bare minimum. It's not "rebuild what you destroyed." It's not "pay the victims remaining of the families you killed." It's not "rehabilitate Gaza." It's not any of the demands that could be made in this situation. It's just... Stop. Stop killing them. And even that is treated like it's so fucking extreme and if you call for it you must want Jews to die. Politicians with an agenda can really demonize anything.
