#how has it gotten this far

[seraphdreams]

a lot of you are not understanding the magnitude of this genocide. when a permanent ceasefire and end to the occupation/genocide happen (which it will, inshallah), it’s not like palestinians can go back to living life as they used to.

where will they get their food if crops/plant life have been destroyed by the idf?

where will children and adults learn if schools have been destroyed by the idf?

where will they rest if their homes have been destroyed by the idf?

where will the sick and injured go if hospitals have been destroyed by the idf?

a generation of people will be deprived of basic necessities for years to come once palestine is rebuilt. how will they live? how can they go back?

#not to mention the psychological damage that will impact entire bloodlines #children as young as six are committing suicide #they are showing signs of extreme ptsd #irreversible mental damage. irreversible. #how has this been happening for 135 days and 76 years #how has it gotten this far #where is your humanity #free palestine and end the occupation #palestinians deserve to live on their own land freely and express their culture freely #from the river to the sea palestine will be free

#good omens #´hello friends!! how are you!! #I hope you're doing well! ( ´ ▽ ` ) #I have a big cough but otherwise I am good! It's nothign bad I am just very slimey #usually I am not a cough person I am not sure where this is coming from #most of the time I just get a stuffy nose #has my nose gotten stronger #but there are good news too I have already found a VERY good chestnut to put into my pocket this autumn!! its very small! (❁´▽`❁) #it's been a very warm autumn in Germany so far so it has not really felt like fall yet #but yesterday it was all rainy and stormy and I had two new books and it was the best day possible to have a slimey cough (: #and now I feel SO much autumn I am close to buying a set of window colors #I do not know what I would to with the window colors I just have this strong urge in me to buy a window color set #the last time I did a window color was at the birtday of a class mate I think she turned 9 and I made a deer #but for some reason we did this craft 5 minutes before we all had to leave so we had to carry our window color deer home wet #unfortunatly for the deer and me I fell down the stairs of her house and smeared the deer all over me and i screamed the entire drive home #which wasn't very long but it probably felt very long for the mother who had a screaming child covered in window color deer inside her car

2.1 spoilers ahead!

Now that I had time to sit on what happened in 2.1 and gather my thoughts. I just want to say that 2.1 has been the best patch so far. In 2.0 HSR did a wonderful job showing all these different fractions within Penacony and how every single one of them had their own agendas. In 2.1 we got to see what their agendas were and how they were going to/are playing out.

The different POVs were a wonderful and amazing addition to the story. It was really nice being able to see and play the same story from another character's perspective.

Aventurine was by far the best character in Penacony for me. The way his story was told was amazing and being to play from his POV allowed us so much more insight into his character. The way his backstory was told, the way he planned to "kill" himself, and the way he finally came to terms with his own past, present, and future were so good some parts of his story genuinely brought tears to my eyes. Seeing Acheron come to the realization of his plan and taking away harmony's curse off of him and giving him a second chance and an out from the IPC I don't even have words to describe how much I loved that scene. There's also his and ratio's relationship I loved every second of their interactions. Their plan for ratio to betray him, ratio giving medicine to aventurine to use when he's close to death god every second of their interaction was amazing I could go on forever about them. I am very excited to see where his story will go on from here.

There's also the fact we got to hear Boothill's voice and holy shit I'm so excited to see him! The interactions between Acheron and Welt had me hooked I desperately need more interactions between them.

The way 2.1 ended has me so excited for 2.2. I never expected Gallagher to be excused of "killing" Robin it was an unexpected twist but I loved it very much. I have so many questions after that ending did Gallagher kill sunday? Is Gallagher truly responsible for the murders that have been happening in penacony? What happened to Robin? Where is Robin? Overall I can't wait for 2.2!!!

#I still have so many thoughts about this #but it would have gotten too long #penacony has been nothing but amazing so far #may 2.2 come faster #truly the best patch so far #very excited to see how this story is gonna end #penacony #hsr #honkai star rail #honkai star rail 2.1 #hsr spoilers #aventurine #acheron #gallagher #welt yang #black swan #boothill #dr ratio #sunday

If you have the ability, please learn to code.

I haven't seen many posts about this, but part of the reason radical feminists and women in general are getting effectively silenced is because men control tech, and there are few women with the skills to set up our own networks.

I'm not saying learn to code and get a job in tech, but your activism can be so much more effective if you have a solid coding foundation. Need a list of all the Crisis Pregnancy Centers (fake abortion clinics) in the USA, in a data format that's easy to track and update with new info over time? That would take hundreds of hours manually. I can write a scraping script, set up a local sqlite database, and get running in a weekend. If I want to make that list public-facing, but don't want the hassle of setting up a more robust database like PostgresQL or MySQL, I can export a JSON file and make a web page that generates listings for each entry in the file.

Automating manual data entry saves so much time. Web scraping saves so much time. Knowing how to access APIs to get the data you need saves so much fucking time.

I highly recommend Python as a beginning programming language. It's a mature language that is still updated, has wide support, has a lot of free learning materials aimed at people who are new to programming, has intuitive syntax, and it has a ton of libraries and frameworks that cover the spectrum of tech needs. If you want to do it, there's probably a way in Python.

#radfems do touch #radfem friendly #radfems please interact #radblr #radfems #okay but seriously i am begging you #learn to code #the trans movement has gotten as far as it has in large part due to effective leveraging of technology by a handful of men #if you’re someone who feels like you can't do much real-life activism due to health issues #having coding skills is like having a superpower #it's insane how quickly you can process thousands of pages of data once you know what you're doing #all without having to leave your room

this might just be the pessimism talking but there are times when I feel the body positive movement is straight up Over. even stuff from now that’s meant to be body positive, or is packaged in that way, is of a lower caliber. like it feels like it’s gotten worse.

#this shit has LEFT #the standards are even lower rn than they have been before #and 'body positivity' has been overtaken by images of bodies that are already socially accepted #and commercially accepted #all the way up to and including bodies that are literally just like. plastic surgery shaped #and none of it is for fat people anymore #and where I saw people more openly criticizing shitty depictions of women's bodies in the past i don't see that shit anymore #and the term 'body shaming'. god how far that has fallen #that gets used if someone so much as implies that kim kardashian esque plastic surgeries that people get #are not fucking Women Empowering Operations #like it's gotten so bad that ppl are saying it's feminist and empowering that so many women are getting bbls #and conversations abt how people get pushed into WANTING to make these alterations w constant negative feedback about their bodies #gets put into a neat little 'smh not very body positive of you' argument #where AM i. #sergle.txt #plus size models are getting smaller. conversations abt body positivity have gotten worse. concerns get shut down faster.

My biggest piece of advice for folks who want to get into fitness would be: Do not follow fitness influencers (or do so very sparingly).

Please be very critical of what is being said when people talk about fitness. It's important that you learn how to exercise properly for your body, and to learn safety and harm reduction, and that isn't what I mean when I say not to follow influencers.

When you want to get into fitness, think about what piques your interest. Do you want to do cardio? Weightlifting? Yoga? Running? A mix of any of that (or none of these examples)? Think about what you think would spark interest and joy, and learn to do that fitness in a safe manner.

I think the biggest reason I even have a healthy relationship with fitness over food is because I haven't followed any fitness influencers, and out of all the ones I've seen, I would only follow one of them, maybe two. Out of all the ones I have seen, and there have been plenty. What I have done instead is research what I want to get into to make sure I am not accidentally harming my body, then, I think of my own goals and work toward them.

I'm sure this won't work for everybody, and that's okay. I wanted to make this post because I think there can be this pressure to "look fit" when you're into exercise and I think that can be a slippery slope.

#fitness #anti diet culture #honestly i'm grateful i didn't seek out fitness influencers of my own volition because i'm not sure if i would still be as motivated... #...to go to the gym if i had. what i personally think has saved my relationship with fitness is that this was deeply personal to me... #...so my ~fitness journey~ has been a very personal and private thing that i don't want altered... #...ABSOLUTELY i want to be safe about how i achieve my goals. but i am not changing the GOALS but the METHOD #i want to start running (maybe) so i have been researching how to run properly and that's about as far as i'll go #i just wanted to post this in case it makes somebody think about their *own* goals if they also want to do exercise #it's definitely complex because i can totally respect that some people follow fitness influencers for ideas and whatnot #so obviously this is just what works for *me* amd sometimes i HAVE gotten fotness ideas from these people

ok but you know what's kinda funny??

this past week and then again when i started the episode i was thinking how there hasn't really been much interaction between mawin and tinh? like, we're in episode 8 already and i still don't feel like tinh likes mawin back (in a crush sort of way)?

and the funny thing is that roughly halfway through the episode i was contemplating this and then went "ok but what if. and hear me out. mawin and ton lmaooo". bc they've been interacting quite a bit recently, you know? and i was just mostly thinking that as a joke

AND THEN. IN PART 4. MAWIN AND TON?? HELLO?? MAWIN GETTING STOOD UP BY TINH?? TON RUNNING INTO MAWIN AND HANDING HIM THE FLOWERS???? HELLO?????????

i thought i was joking but. am i onto something here?????????? help????????????

#please tell me i wasn't the only one who saw that last scene of them on the stairs and went 🏳️‍🌈?👀 #23.5 degrees #23.5 #23.5 ep8 #adrm #no bc like. if they wan't me to be into mawin x tinh then i really need tinh to start showing signs that he's actually into mawin #so far the only thing i've gotten from him were friendship vibes #and there are only 4 eps left #so like. it seems a little late to start developing a romance?? #why would they have tinh stand mawin up at this point you know? it seems a little late esp considering how little screen time they get #it has me very 🤨 #like. are we really supposed to believe that there's a blossoming romance between mawin and tinh? #bc i'm not convinced just yet #but ep8 suddenly has me very 👀 about mawin and ton ngl

It's weird that Larian seems to show Astarion a lot of favoritism in terms of content and yet his companion storyline is such a side quest compared to all the others. As far as I'm aware he has no real connection to the mindflayers/Absolute other than the initial kidnapping/parasite insertion, which is - like - the bare minimum needed to have a connection at all.

His conflict with Cazador is such a random aside when you're in Baldur's Gate. It's like yeah I need to stop the other two Chosen, I need to solve this murder conspiracy, locate the Elder Brain, deal with Raphael, figure out what to do with the Crown of Karsus, and... oh yeah, I guess there's Astarion's thing to deal with, too.

It's hilarious, really, because it means while this one huge, world-ending event was going on there was also - by complete coincidence - an entire OTHER world-ending event happening just down the street that wasn't connected in any way. Not only is the Absolute's army on the march, but Cazador is trying to become the Vampire Ascendant at the same time and only ASTARION knows about it. Cazador is literally just some OTHER bbeg whose centuries-old plan happens to be coming to fruition the same week as the Chosen's.

I literally almost forgot to do his plotline because it had so little to do with the overarching conflict of the story. The only connection he ever really makes is with Raphael, who he needs ONCE for ONE minor thing and that's it. And Raphael isn't even that important to the Absolute plot, himself.

Astarion doesn't really have any connections with the Chosen, any other characters, any other antagonists, he's just kind of his own thing. Once you deal with Cazador he's just kind of along for the ride. Meanwhile, Wyll's father is integral to the Chosen's plan, Shadowheart has the plot McGuffin that can foil the Absolute, Lae'zel's people are sworn enemies of the mindflayers, and Gale wants the Crown of Karsus for himself, not to mention his Goddess is literally tasking him to deal with the Absolute.

Everyone else has a good reason to be there EXCEPT ASTARION. Like he's just there because he has a worm.

Anyway, rant over.

#baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate iii #bg3 memes #astarion #anyway just read about how astarion got a bunch of extra content written for him that other characters didn't get #so i'm a little salty #and needed to rant #i'm sure astarion stans will find some way to interpret his lack of plot relevance as tragically beautiful and poignant #also i'm sure karlach has some connection but i haven't gotten her story far enough to see what it is #if nothing else she cares a lot about wyll so that's something

I miss you Lorna… this is such a mess

This is an old message and I had several other similar messages, but I miss you guys and hope you’re all doing well!! I’m sorry to see nothing has improved.
