Cookie-Related Stuff

Link in reblog

Link Contains:

  • Some dialogue snippets I've been writing
  • My fancast (very much a work in progress; I have very specific mental voices that I can't find English actors for)
  • Sync Pairs ala Pokémon Masters (Some I need second opinions to help decide)
  • A review of some of the English voice cast of Kingdom
  • [NEW] An attempt to follow Devil Cookie's path in Ovenbreak's Storyline.

And probably more in the future!

just to be completely clear, the amount of military power and political influence Israel has has NOTHING to do with its settlers being Jewish. Israel is a force for American & European interests in the region and they're just doing what America does and allows/encourages its close allies to do.

war crimes aren't considered war crimes when someone America finds useful is doing them. european and american pushback against anyone criticizing Israeli apartheid & genocide is 100% because these crimes are useful to American & European hegemony.

Governments that are deeply antisemitic, like France, aren't suddenly caring about Jewish people. Jewish people, persecuted the world over, don't hold some kind of hegemonic power outside of Israel.

The state of Israel and its attendant brutal treatment of the locals are both incredibly useful to the US, and American hegemony means we're expected to celebrate both.

not bc they're Jewish. this isn't a break in the pattern of western antisemitism and it's not evidence that antisemitism doesn't exist.

it's just like how you could get fired for saying shit against the US war in Afghanistan when i was growing up. it is 100% about US military and political interests (ok slightly western europe too but lbr)

any bitch that says "you can be critical of israel but-" or "israel had racist government but-" should swallow a goddamn boot

i'm not "critical" of israel, i think it shouldn't exist. i don't think anyone has a right to a fascist apartheid ethnostate built on the mass graves of an indigenous population. and reducing the horror of ethnic cleansing, genocide and apartheid laws that palestinians have been enduring for decades to just "israeli government is kinda racist" makes me fucking lose my mind

@masriyah what do you think should happen to the Israeli people, if Israel were to dissolve & it all becomes free Palestine?

i don't know and i don't think that's more important to think about than the dismantling of apartheid and settler colonialism under which palestinians are suffering right now

Three big points here:

  1. After the end of Apartheid in South Africa, white South Africans have continued to dominate the country economically. In fact, the richest white South Africans have only INCREASED the amount of wealth they're hoarding since Apartheid ended. South Africa has the worst wealth gap on the planet, with race remaining the largest determining factor in a person's socioeconomic standing. Despite white South African moral panics about "white genocide," Black people are disproportionately at risk of violence in post-Apartheid South Africa. Based on historic precedent, Palestinians are at higher risk of socioeconomic exploitation and ongoing violence than their colonisers even if the Israeli state is abolished.
  2. If you're genuinely concerned about Israelis, maybe consider that living in a fascist state that is arresting people for social media posts that aren't genocidal enough is something that already exists and is happening to them right now and that not living in a genocidal fascist state would be better for anyone who isn't fascist and genocidal.
  3. Israel is carrying out genocide. Creating moral panics about hypothetical reverse genocides to demonise resistance to an actually ongoing genocide is straight up fucked. Go fuck yourself.

worst relationship status to have w someone is “objectively they’re a fine person who is nice but i don’t enjoy their company as much as they enjoy mine”

second worst relationship status to have with someone is “objectively they’re a fine person but they Bother You”

secret third technically more harmless but in practicality more frustrating relationship status is “objectively they’re a fine person and they like so many of the same things i do but they like them in a fundamentally different way that is harmless but reads wrong to my brain and it has made attempts at forming an actual bond with them aggravating more than anything”

tbh i think stuff like this is why so many people, especially younger people, fall into this trap of “well if i don’t like a person or thing, they must be bad”. it would be so much easier if you could dismiss them as bad and move on. but it’s like, no, Objectively Fine people or things can just not mesh well with you for totally subjective reasons. and sometimes when they’re people you mesh much better with their brain than they do with yours. and sometimes you have to live with that.

Is it just my luck, or is Life Makeover really, REALLY pushing Roy as a love interest over the other three guys?

I've wound up with a whopping 6 of his Ally Cards, with my second most being a tie between Gerald and Ashley at three each.

He's also the focal character of the first Mind Travel chapter, which is going to help endear him a lot more over the rest of your allies.

Your recent Kira stuff just made me realize how horrible Hayato’s situation was…

People don’t give Hayato enough credit, not only was his dad replaced by a killer, and his mother loves them more, but Hayato can’t even see stands. Dude was on a uphill battle and he’s like 11

His situation is chilling, and I think that’s why him and his story really interests me

Okay honestly it didn't hit me how funny the concept of Weird Al's Even Worse album is until I found out they'd have gone on sale side by side.

"Hmmm, do I want Bad, or Even Worse?"

i don't care that they're that they're technically physically owned by a soulless corporation, i feel like that in spirit the muppets would and should be on strike

Kermit is up with union leadership making impassioned speeches about how we could all be kind and fair and how we all deserve a kind and fair world.

Miss Piggy is getting ready to burn someone's house down. Allegedly. Nothing is on fire. There's no law against making bespoke molotov cocktails. It's a hobby. So what it's got Bob Igers name written on the side.

Felt that it’s important to share videos like this too.

The world wants us to forget that they are people.

People who dance and play and smile just like you and I.

And it's important to share things like this, to remind them the world that they are human.
