Monkeypox
Monkeypox has been around since 1958!
Now that COVID is winding down, mainstream media needs another disease to keep people glued to the news.
Weird how when pandemic restrictions are being lifted, monkeypox suddenly appears. 
I wonder how many people will overlook this obvious coincidence?

had a human au thought of Barnaby and Wally. idk doing their taxes or going through bills together since they share a house & Barnaby going "hey we could get married for tax benefits and health insurance. wait no what if i want to marry Howdy someday? it's illegal to be married to two people." Wally goes "we could get divorced" and Barnaby gets legitimately sad like:

We all know that S3 is gonna be about the Second Coming-slash-Final Judgement blah blah blah blah blah but what i NEED is for Jesus to radiate so much little sibling energy™. I need them and Crowley to be a chaotic-sibling-bestie duo ok??? It's one of the only ways i can heal
#good omens#crowley#i need jesus to be a very chill dude (gn. they could be a little girl for we know) who pops out of the silver plane and surrounded by CIA#angel bodyguards and then they see Crowley and just fucking runs up to him to choke-bear hug hybrid him the way only little clingy sibs do#and then the angel operatives freak out#jesus: GASPS!!! HI BESTIEE🥰🥰🥰!!! how are ya doin?#crowley: what#angel mafia: !!!! AKDSKSDHASDJKL#and then crowley proceeds to kidnap him and then babysit him. they go to the barbie premier and the Eras tour and the bahamas and just went#around the world. leaving chaos in their wake. we're talking about confusion bafflement and maybe a whole ton of buffets being suddenly#replaced with fish and bread that could feed 6000 people. and then they fuck over governments without even trying and giving the poor the#queers the conspiracy theorists and all of the marginalized peeps everything they WANT#and where was aziraphale in all of this? stuck on heaven's top floor just seething that he can't go out cause the metatron locked him in.#the metatron angel-proofed the whole building just so aziraphale cannot leave. they're in lockdown and everyone is panicking. Aziraphale#the pedantic loophole-obsessed bastard that he is. was like "If they fucking angel-proofed superheaven then I'm gonna escape the good old-#fashioned human way. He then demolishes the glass with his bare fists. everyone screams and he walks out of heaven wearing#his tartan and shades because cool bamf angels don't look at the chaos they unleashed.

Just so we're clear and consistent, if you're truly set on holding government workers and politicians accountable for the lockdowns and authoritarian Covid policies, you better include Trump and everyone in his administration/cabinet. Because you fuckers are acting as if Biden came in out of nowhere in 2020 and forced you inside for a goddamn year, while Trump just didn't exist or something. We're gonna blame one half of the country for locking everyone up for a year while supporting the other half who didn't seem to have any problems with it either until it became politically inconvenient for them to do so.
And don't get me started on Fauci. The easiest way to put it is he for sure would not have had all that power if Trump had not appointed him, without Senate approval either mind you.

I understand that UK politics has gone to shit but GOD DAM who ever is naming the scandles is doing a good job.
Like partygate and the lockdown files 👏👏👏 10/10

People are acting like the lockdown files are a revelation. They tell us nothing we didn't already know.
It's been well-known that Rishi Sunak and Matt Hancock and all the other tories are complete cunts for quite some time.

just so you know how normal the UK is, left wing climate change activists and anti-monarchy protesters are getting jail time and beaten for simply holding up banners and being considered disruptive whilst right wing bullshitters against shit like ULEZ (literally about having areas that are specifically for ultra low emissions so we, y'know, don't constantly have to breathe in fucking car fumes and other pollutants because some fucking people actually bizarrely want to???) and road safety limits EVEN FUCKING RIGHT NEAR SCHOOLS are driving basically massive vehicles through the streets and are not considered a disruptive protest

The room is too hot thinking about global warming and the end of the world in my lifetime. Wrote a fancomic in the notes app about it.

Does it annoy anyone else how certain people have retroactively redefined what Lockdown was in order to downplay it?
"Oh yeah it was 3 weird months" is what I came across today. Three months?! No, for some of us it was over two years of a total change to our lives, lifestyles and liberties.
Whether or not it was 'worth it' is another issue that has strong arguments in either direction that I don't need to get into on this post. But Jesus Christ. People who bleat on about how "oh that was just Restrictions" as if a different name transforms your lived experience and trauma are absolutely infuriating. Sorry but a nice rebranded euphemism doesn't change what actually happened!
As a society we were fractured. Not for three months, but for literal years, depending on where you were. There are young new humans that have grown up never seeing anyone beyond their parent(s) or immediate guardians. There are older folk who have heavily deteriorated through lack of social contact and become shadows of themselves. People with poor mental health going in who've found themselves struggling, and fraying, and coming close to the edge. Some haven't made it across.
And people who experienced none of that have the NERVE to say that as long as it wasn't strictly CALLED 'lockdown' as we lived through it, then it was perfectly fine and nothing to worry about?!
What privilege and small mindedness.

So hey, normally my blog is for my blorbos, but IRL I'm stuck in China in large part because of my cats.
Tumblr media
The animal import laws for Britain are ridiculous - actually, they're impossible to fulfill right now and for the foreseeable future due to the COVID lockdown.
So I'm asking if you would be so kind as to sign this petition. When we hit 10k signatures, parliament will discuss the issue. Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

living in a country where gun law control is wayyyy tighter than USA... seeing that article about " job hazard" just... totally.. baffles me.
they think its OK to send their kids and teachers into " war zone " all the time? SIGH....
unfortunately lawmakers straight up don’t care since it never affects their children, who usually attend private schools with stricter rules and protections…
Tumblr media
putting a read more since this shit is traumatizing lol
no joke, there was a public shooting about… 5-10 minutes away? at a mall outlet a few months ago. pictures and video footage of the scene was leaked, and it quite literally looked like a massacre in a horror film. survivor and witness accounts were equally as horrifying - there was a man who rushed to the scene after hearing the gunshots, and hearing his story… it was heartbreaking. i still frequently think about the story he told about finding a little girl with no face because of the weaponry the shooter used. and, get this: wanna know what the state officials said about the incident? “thoughts and prayers 🙏”.
not to mention, back in my sophomore year of high school (10th grade, i was 15 years old), there was a school dance. a car backfired in the parking lot, and there was widespread panic - kids running around, trampling tables and chairs, freaking out thinking that there was a shooter. i wasn’t personally there, but just knowing that my friends felt that fear was chilling.
there was also a false bomb threat on the school the year prior that caused a lockdown, but that’s a little less interesting lmao
but, yeah. shit sucks. i live in one of the leading states for school and public shootings (texas), and every time i go outside (not often), i’m always mentally preparing myself for an incident. making sure i wear comfortable running shoes, keeping an eye out for anyone suspicious, staying close to the people i’m out with. we’re pretty much living in constant fight-or-flight in this country nowadays… unless you’re rich, of course. they just don’t care.
there’s a reason why yours truly is going into sociology and political science, i’m hoping to do a little bit of good in any way that i can :')
