so yeah that fire in Lahaina, Maui? That was what indigenous activists were trying to prevent. That is why Land Back movements wants indigenous people to be the stewards of the land that was once theirs. Not kick out white people and settlers. But to prevent shit like that where a bunch of tourists/settlers won't destroy the planet in their ruthless pursuit of productivity and profit. So yeah, think on that.

People are asking how was this white people fault?

Power lines, in Hawaii they are owned by Blackrock and Vanguard, keep catching on fire because they forget to turn off their shitty electricity. So when they eventually topple over, white people forgot to cut the Guinea grass planted by colonizers 200 years to feed cows which changed Lahaina from a a swampland to the fucking tinderbox that it is today.

But hey, grass is grass and no need to mow an invasive species, right colonizers? Oh shit, that global warming that these fucking oil companies spent decades telling us wasn’t real is real and that dried up the land in Maui?

Now motherfuckers are trying to buy land off of the indigenous people in Maui because colonizers just love having part time homes, right?

But yay let’s celebrate the fucking billionaires who own homes in Lahaina because they are donating. Nope, no fucking correlation there right?

Indigenous Hawaiians have been saying how tourism is killing their islands for over a decade yet you fucking assholes keep mentioning how Tourism is the point of Hawaii as if that culture wasn’t just about living instead of living for profit.

They don’t want you there but you fuckheads insist of making it your timeshare goal. So yeah. It’s absolutely settler’s fault that this shit happening.

Do ypu like anything abt worm? I feel like I only see negative posts abt it from you but isn't your url from it?

oh i love worm. it was absolutely formative to me and 90% of it still holds up. it's one of the best written stories about trauma ever written--the core concept--externalizing, literalizing trauma as superpwoers--is executed upon incredibly, over and over again. every character, even momentarily appearing characters who get one chapter from their perspective and then never appear again, is written with depth and sympathy. the powers are fun and the worldbuilding is clever but fun powers and clever worldbuilding are a dime a dozen--the strength of worm is its profound and visceral exploration of trauma. wildbow Gets It in a way that 99% of writers just don't.

why do i do so much (or reblog so much) wormcomplaining? there's a few reasons. one is that tumblr is the only worm fanspace where wildbow isn't a fucking snap of the fingers away from appearing and arguing with you so it's the only place where wormheads feel able to criticise his works--so the overall tone here is going to skew critical. two is that ward (worm sequel) was bad and bad in the specific way where the version of it that was good is clear as daylight so you want to post about it all day. finally here on wormblr dot mil i think we all agree that worm is great. worm is good is like the baseline foundation on which all our other posts are made. we're making them for our little insular club of wormgirls so i think we all make our worm hateposts with the unspoken message that worm is good. but to be clear, despite everything:

worm is good

so embarrassing when i forget im checking someone's blog and i start scrolling through and liking and reblogging shit as if it's just my dash. it feels like wandering into someone else's apartment and not noticing and making myself lunch

Avatar

reblog if i can wander into your apartment (blog) and make myself lunch (like and reblog as if it's my dash)

Welcome to my funky apartment, have a look around and feel free to clone stuff to yours, leave me silly sticky notes, scream into the void tube, or stuff anonymous postcards into my mailbox. Just don't repost stuff, that's stealing from people I care about.

You are the first ever completely ethical vampire: you post the terms and conditions of trespassing, make it clear in the memo that said people are subject to be fed on… You can safely say that humanity’s stupidity has kept you alive for thousands of years.

Avatar

I mean is taking advantage of stupid people actually ethical? Wouldn’t it be ethical to express your needs and you survive on the charity and goodwill of people who wish to due anyways and your ethics still make you make sure that they have tried all the alternatives?

Since we’re playing that game, is it really ethical to take advantage of the suicidal like that?

What crossover would Taylor Hebert Worm do best in?

And no, she can't leave the place she goes to.

My little pony, where she's the only human around; Scooby Doo, where she's going to adjust oh so very well to fighting costumed villains nonviolently; or the Cthulhu mythos/lovecraft, specifically Pickman's Model with the things beneath Boston.

Avatar

Honestly I feel like Taylor working with the Scooby Gang would be great....Like, once she goes through the initial adjustment period she would integrate really well.

She'd be solid friends with Fred and Velma.

Daphne would lead to an emotional crying session when Taylor realises "Oh, this is the friendship I should still have with Emma"

Shaggy would give her some weapons grade kush that would calm her down

She'd feed Scrappy-Doo to Altas.

I love it when you point out to usamericans that the USA doesn't actually have a name and they get really pissy and reply "of COURSE we have a name!! AMERICA!! Just like the United States of MEXICO and the United States of BRAZIL!!!" and like:

For a country supposedly named "America", y'all seem to barely use the word "America" when referring to your own institutions.

The name of your country is United States. "America" is just the location it is mostly located in.

The scripture is Exodus 22:25 – “If you lend money to any of my people who are poor, do not act like a moneylender and require him to pay interest.”

So you can charge interest to big companies, but not to poor people. The entire payday lending industry just got wiped out.

The concept of Accord is so funny to me. Like he's just this short ass guy that constantly dresses like he's heading to a business meeting. But the second you stop holding your arms at perfect 90 degree angles he imagines the Wallace and Gromit jam machine except its throwing knives at you

its incredible. guy who gets mad about someone sneezing too loudly and promptly starts inventing a personalized rube-goldberg machine of suffering for them in his head. convoluted cartoon anvil trap but the anvil is real and also going to hurt you

i can simulate versions of alec you dont even know about

dr who is so crazy imagine your species goes extinct except for two theater kids who call themselves The Orthodontist and the Administrator and they just go around causing problems and destroying your entire culture's reputation

did you hear about the ancient race of enchanted elves? they fell into the darkness of their own hubris. anyway that over there is the two survivors, Wiz and da Boss, who are only taking breaks from kicking each other in the nuts to make out

Ok but Zuko using the knowledge he acquired during his banishment to help him as the Fire Lord. Like making small talk with Earth Kingdom dignitaries about their local foods that he enjoyed and even misses. Like having in-depth conversations with his captains about sea currents and navigation. Like, in the middle of a meeting with several high-ranking naval officials, pointing out flails in security, like how a person can cling to a Fire Nation ship for hours at a time, or climb aboard using hatches on the upper decks, or disguise themselves as a lower ranking guard with easily accessible spare armour….

Though none of his experiences can prepare Zuko for the long, awkward silence that comes after he admits to doing or at least knowing something illegal and/or completely buck wild

fire lord zuko: you should maybe revisit the security measures around the water ducts that the sealturtles use

northern water tribe leader: that’s not necessary, no one can survive submerged in the artic ocean for so many minutes

zuko:

zuko: remember that time the fire nation attacked you

Zuko: okay first you have to promise not to get mad

Earth King: Tell me about your first visit to Ba Sing Se.

Zuko:

Avatar

Okay, but before all this:

Advisors: Princess Azula did perform the astounding feat of infiltrating Ba Sing Se…

Zuko: Huh? Oh, that’s not hard. It’s pretty nice, if you don’t mind the brainwashing, but you can’t get a spicy octopus for love or money. We ate so much jook. *shudders*

Advisors:… you got in too…. interesting.

*

Advisors: The mysterious Water Tribe city at the North Pole

Zuko: It’s a pretty place, if you like ice.  Lots of sealturtles. They have a really nice little sort of sacred grove thing there, too, I kidnapped the Avatar from it once.

Advisors: …. we have some questions….

*

Advisors: We still have not found the Fire Lord’s secret supplier of new weapons - 

Zuko: He’s at the Northern Air Temple. (Realizing they’re all staring at him) Oh, no, I haven’t met him personally, but I have friends who have. He sounds like a very interesting guy.

Advisors: SO MANY QUESTIONS

*

Zuko: (while directing post-war reparation efforts) Oh, and we need to send a lot of people to work on replanting the forest around this obscure village.

Advisors:…. may we ask why?

Zuko: Apparently the local panda spirit is pretty mad about having its forest burned down. 

Advisors, now afraid to ask: ….Yes, Fire Lord. 

*

Every now and then, the curiosity gets too much and they’ll bring up something like ‘legendary sand benders’ or ‘Southern Islands’ and Zuko invariably produces some tidbit of local knowledge (either his own or gleaned from the Gaang’s stories) and six Foreign Ministers have resigned in fear and the seventh one only barely held it together when Zuko greeted an envoy from a tiny, insignificant Earth Kingdom island with ‘Listen, I am really sorry about what happened last time, I hope the supplies I sent helped with the rebuilding, do you still have that giant eel thing?” IS THERE ANYTHING HE DOESN’T KNOW.

Advisor: Before we start the meeting, I’d like to address the anniversary of Captain Zhao’s mysterious disappearance…

Zuko: At least he died doing what he loved?

Advisor: What do you mean, died?

Adviser: “There still has been no word about the whereabouts of the vigilante known as the Blue Spirit. The last reported sighting was in Ba Sing Se. It is imperative we find more information about him.”

Zuko: “Oh you’re still looking into that?”

Adviser: “He is a wanted criminal in both the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation for espionage, theft, assault and battery, breaking and entering and breaking numerous other local laws and customs.”

Zuko: “Huh when you put it like that it does sound pretty bad.”

Adviser: “My Lord, surly you heard of him and his crimes.”

Zuko: “Of course I heard of him. Its just… I mean considering all the good he did. His heart was in the right place?”

Adviser: “…”

Zuko: “Ok, so don’t get mad…”

Zuko really quickly pardoning himself for his crimes before he finishes his next sentence
