Imagine my shock as a neurodivergent teen when I first realized that using large vocabulary and eloquent speech doesn't make you less likely to be misinterpreted, rather it adds an entirely new layer of misinterpretation I had never even realized existed in the form of people thinking you're being snobbish or condescending when you're just trying to be specific

Miriam-

I absolutely adore a duel-wielding assassin archetype as that is how I play every DA game. I just finished absolution and wanted to contribute to the fanart pool~

fenris—for all his talk to hawke and isabela about wariness and staying alive and guard what you have, keep your head low, even dragons are eventually slain—says outright he would have duelled the arishok for isabela if he’d been in hawke’s place. like yeah the kid who gave up everything to fight for his family’s freedom is still in there. and btw he literally loves isabela

No joke, go read The Open Veins of Latin America before even trying to send me a political ask. Mandatory reading.

It's a cliché that every Latin American leftist has read it and quotes it, but that's because it's written in such a clear language with undeniable strenght on its facts. It presents the history of Latin America solidly just in the first few pages, and it only gets more engrossing the more it goes on. While it is now a bit outdated in the sense that it was first published in 1971, the historical, social and political issues presented are -in an unfortunate way- still current. It is a relatively short book, passionate and in a clear, poetic language.

Sometimes it's good to return to the basics, and this is THE basic book if you want to understand the effects of imperialism in Latin America, and our struggle for freedom and identity.

Instead of losing your time with half baked twitteroid takes, go read it. Here you go, for free, in Spanish, Portuguese and English:

Hey . Maybe I am tired of having no money .

In Canada it is both Pride and Indigenous History Month as I make this post . And I would like to maybe use this chance to ask for a little bit of Fin@cial Aid

It has been impossible for me to get a job . The economy of my city has been on a downhill for years and now it’ s becoming near impossible to get hired . I live as frugally as possible , yet I keep finding myself asking for my parents to help keep my bank acc above the negatives . I do not want to always rely on my family to keep me afloat financially as we are all struggling . If I can take some of the strain off myself and my family by doing this , I will feel marginally better

It have been a struggle for me to feel comfortable posting this , as I keep trying to convince myself I do not deserve aid in my current position . Yet , the longer I let myself think like that is another day I end up struggling anyways . There is no shame in asking for help
