Bambie Thug’s attempts at showing solidarity, and Alexander’s hopes that artists competing might be able to use their platform to advocate for peace, have ultimately proved useless. With Eurovision still going ahead, and Israel still competing, it proves how the only effective way to protest would have been to withdraw. Real action, after all, speaks louder than words. Instead, empty gestures, performative victimhood and self-preservation from the EBU, broadcasters and those competing have left a stain on Eurovision. [...] It leaves the future of Eurovision in a mess. The hypocrisy of the EBU has brought its credibility into the question, as has its fraudulent claims of apoliticism; just as the decision to exclude Russia was political, so is the choice to allow Israel to participate. This year Eurovision has chosen to support violence over advocating for peace. Going forward, it’s going to be hard to feel united by music after that.

Francis getting flustered by punk dilf Arthur 🥺

Yes 🔥🔥🔥

I'm not accepting prompts at this time, but I just had to write a little self Indulgent blurb about this.

Arthur wound the blanket tightly around Matthew just as he used to when Matthew was a boy. Though Francis hadn't been around for it, they could still picture a smaller Matthew with his rosy cheeks and wild curls being wrapped up by Arthur just as tentatively as he was right now. Sometimes Francis wished Matthew was still that little.

But if he was honest, he preferred Arthur like he was now. Piercings weighing on his ears. Already striking eyes further emphasized by the stroke of black eyeliner and eyeshadow. The tips of his spiky hair dyed green (because that was all he could get away with when dealing with his bosses). The worn graphic tee of some band Francis never heard of or cared to listen to but Arthur loved. The coloured ink just peeking out from under his sleeve.

Arthur's punk look had always made Francis weak in the knees but to see it paired with his parental side made Francis almost swoon.

When Arthur met their eyes, Francis quickly looked away, cheeks flushing an incriminating red.

Rules

Please tag your submissions for the event as #nedcanweek2024 and feel free to tag the blog @nedcanweek to be sure I see it.

Fanfiction, fanart, headcanons, moodboards and any other creative outlet will be accepted. Just please tag any necessary content warnings (ex. Gore, unrequited love, character death, etc.). If there is any confusion, feel free to message me or send in an ask

NS/FW will be allowed but must be tagged as either ns/fw or nsft. But No rape, non-con, incest, underage, etc.

Side ships/past relationships/poly ships are allowed in your content, but please try to keep NedCan as the focus

Interpret prompts as you will and prompts don’t have to be the main focus of the work; the prompt just has to be a part of it in some way. For the free day you can do whatever you want, but the prompt of Sports is there for those who want a bit of guidance.

Don’t post prompts before the designated dates.

If I don’t reblog your post please give me at least 24-hours before messaging me about it because it might be that I’m just busy that day. But if there is an issue do reach out.

Most of all have fun!

Everybody does the exact same stupid shit. That white nationalist anon I was getting a while ago would send me story after story of some random black guy or immigrant committing a violent crime against a white person. Well, yeah, people are violent, you're gonna find those if you go looking for them. And there's a lot of racial animosity in the world, so you'll even find racially charged ones if you go looking! No shit, Sherlock. We could play this game all day. You find me a news story of a black guy killing a white guy, I find you a news story of white guy killing a black guy. This does no one any good.

TERFs are identical. News story after news story of a trans woman raping somebody. Yeah, the world is an awful place and people rape each other. I can find you a news story of a cis woman raping a teenage boy and getting three months in jail. I can find you a news story of a cis mom killing her disabled kid cause they're too much work. But I don't want to. The world sucks shit, why gorge yourself on the tragedy?

Zionists come up with news story after news story of pro-Palestinian/BDS/whatever protestors being antisemitic. Yep. A lot of people out there hate Jews. And there has been a genuine rise in antisemitism since the Oct. 7th attack, and that's awful. There are no excuses for that. Do you know what else has happened since then? The Israeli military has slaughtered tens of thousands of Palestinians, including huge numbers of innocent civilians—men, women and children.

People are often terrible to each other. Welcome to Earth. If you go looking for bad actors in a big enough group, you are guaranteed to find them. How about this. What about all the black people who didn't kill a white little girl? What about the black little girls? What about their hopes and dreams? What about their chance at life? What about all the trans women who didn't rape anybody in a bathroom? What if they just want to go about their lives, without constant public scrutiny of what genitals they have (as a cis woman, can you empathize with that? Constant public scrutiny of what you're doing with your genitals?). What about the 30,000 Palestinians who have been killed, and the 70,000 who have been displaced from their homes?

Fear has made you a monster. Fear has driven you to demand slaughter and oppression of innocent people because they look like guilty people you read about on the news, and since they look the same to you, you feel fearful—how can you tell whether these are the innocent ones or the guilty ones? Best to oppress and slaughter them preemptively just to be safe. I am here to tell you that this twisted logic of self-defense does not hold. I do not care if you feel safe—I do not care if you are safe—if the cost of your safety is innocent life. The world is a risky place. I am not going to deny that. Horrible things could happen to any of us. If we go around preemptively attacking other over it, we do not make it a bit better. And, needless to say, danger comes from everywhere, from every group of human beings, and oppressing the people who make you nervous will not, in fact, deliver you from danger. It just makes you a monster.

I don't know if anyone has sent any positivity for @koolkat9 but I love how she writes EngGer and EngFraGer just. So much. Whether in an AU or canonverse or historical hetalia, I love the softness she gives the characters. Their dark parts aren't ignored, but I love how she can focus on them striving to be more than their trauma and work with each other to be better. It's always nice to read. Sometimes on rainy days I just want to curl up with some tea and read her backlog of fics.

♥♡∞:｡.｡ 　Positivity for @koolkat9 ｡･::･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

#ahhhhhhhhhhhh #one of the greatest compliments I can get is that people come back to read my fics #and that's exactly how i try to write these characters #imperfect with dark pasts but trying to be better #positivity #positive vibes
