#maybe I'll regret posting this

[macrocosmus]

I don’t know how to properly express how I fucking hate how some folks talk about voting as this end all be all while also acknowledging that yeah, I am voting in every election.

I will engage with the system but I don’t trust it for a fucking second and it’s appalling that folks do.

So sure, vote, but maybe also form a union, strike, protest, riot, contribute to bail funds, take part in mutual aid, support strikers protesters and rioters, support counter protests, write to your representatives, read something off the anarchist library website, go to your local library, volunteer, be outspoken, call out shit, make graffiti, cover up fashie graffiti, find your local food banks and help out, educate folks about propaganda and fascism, play punk and commie music, anything

I know folks can do everything, but if voting is your end all be all political engagement... fuck

voting is harm reduction at best

#maybe I'll regret posting this #whatever #im not articulate and i never can get my butt to protests but im fucking trying yknow? #like everyone is saying we gotta vote to keep the good rolling from this administration #and im just here looking at half measures and people not reading past headlines #call me fucking cynical and jaded but like #buddy theres a better world out there #theres a bright future and if you're fixated on voting and throw your faith in the system like it sounds like you do... #do you even know what that brighter future will look like? #*plays Emma Goldman Would Have Beat Your Ass and smokes too much* #listen you dont gotta be like me #heck you might even be better #but like fuck #if you don't vote you're dooming us to these conservatives is so fucking annoying to listen to #you sound like a fucking liberal who went from screaming about kids in cages to simply shrugging and asking where else should we put them #im voting because its the least i can do #and yeah it does fucking help a bit #but get out of my fucking ass about it trying to doomsay me into it #you should duckduckgo image search for ratchet effect politics #maybe that'll learn you something #ALSO #i dont understand how negotiating shit actually works but i know that to get what you want you have to ask for more and #im forced to vote for fuckers who dont seem to understand that #or understand that and want to get less #wheres that simpsons screencaps of the two parties' national conventions #anyway #i've been ralmbing in the tags for long enough #if you made it this far in the tags tell me why

Is there anyway you could draw a comic about the labour and birth of Aim? Sorry I’m just very fascinated with the whole soul inside soul thing.

In childbirth, most of it is occupied by contractions and attempts = just preparation and emotions, while the very birth is the last long awaited moment after several painful hours :'D

But! Since you've mentioned the soul inside soul thing, I hope this rough explanation will help to see what precedes childbirth throughout pregnancy ♡

#zu art #ask #post dark cream #aim!sans #cross!sans #undertale #undertale au #utmv #thank you for inspiration! <3 #no sleep yet no regret *w* #maybe I'll get back to long preparations and emotions someday ;3 #preg!cross

rare wip of a new guy - anyone else take shitty photos of stuff they’re working on to stare at on their phone or just me?

#wip #drawing antlers is sooooo fun i love it (MANIFESTING) #I never usually post wips because I think my process would disgust and frighten people #this guy was meant to be a deer but I made him into a dragon by mistake #he was also meant to be a merderer but he’s not really giving serial killer #so now I’m thinking maybe I should just sell this design. I’ve never sold a character design before but I think this guy looks cool #maybe other people would like him more....on the other hand maybe i'll regret selling him.... #anyway. I’m hoping to finish him up tomorrow

a list of motogpblr creators

Hello, I initially wanted to do this to celebrate some kind of milestone of mine but I have none of them in sight and I got the inspiration for this earlier this afternoon, so, here we are.

My memory is not the best and I tried to research stuff through my blog but I already know that I have forgotten people and I obviously don't know about everyone here, no matter how small motogpblr may seems to be, so, my apologies.

Just a quick thank you to everyone who uses some of their time to create for the fandom and also a thank you to people taking the time to interact (with likes, reblogs, comments) with the content created, it's always appreciated.

i have GOT to stop going and checking out the notes on... that one post.... but it's CRAZY to me that people keep reblogging it very seriously being like "HOW CAN PEOPLE LIKE HENRY HE MURDERED 20 CHILDREN"

you mean the fictional child murder?? you mean the fake fictional child murder?? you mean the fake fictional telekinetic sci fi child murder by fake fictional telekinetic sci fi murder man on fake fictional telekinetic sci fi horror netflix show stranger things??? YOU MEAN THAT FAKE MURDER???

no you're so right there's never once been a history of fandoms liking a guy even if he did a bit of fake fictional murder what an insane concept

#one of the members of the fan club found it and was very seriously defending themselves in the notes too #like “I NEVER SAID IT WAS COOL THAT HE MURDERED THOSE KIDS I LIKE HIM BC I THINK HE DIDN'T DO IT” #which like I get why you're rolling up in defense since the post is calling you fucking crazy but the defense itself is also funny as hell #bc it's just not that serious lmao. stan him AND the murder if you want idfc #in fact I think the fan club is a bit annoying and I'd probably like them better if they DID think he murdered all those kids #say it with your whole chest. child murderer jones murdered all those children and he's my pookie #but like. I'm sure plenty of people are reblogging it lightheartedly like ''yeah haha funny #he murdered a bunch of kids and people edit him with cat ears or whatever isn't that crazy!'' but like. some people seem like #they're taking it seriously lol #and it's just like. not that serious lmao I'm sorry this is our most hysterical discourse yet #I don't even really LIKE the fanclub but wtf lol #anyway. y'all ever heard of like. a horror slasher fandom? #should I main tag this? #nah. I want to a little bit but I should not #ok nvm I will #I will regret it maybe but I'll do it #stranger things #byler #henry creel

trying to draw ponies is kicking my ass why did i think it was a good idea to make a saiki k pony au

[sunshades]

One thing about canto VI is like. I see so many people predicting it'll be about Fighting Evil Wife or Breaking Codependent Toxic Relationship and I just kinda think that would suck? If the major theme isn't grief AND love and the way both are seen as like Kinda Weird/inappropriate in the setting of the city. Then I'll be very sad.

#bell.txt #not putting it in the tag i dont wanna spam but yes limbus posting yes girls will be thinking about mortal regret #LIKE. LIKE. remember the discourse on twt about how like it was bad writing that yi sang didnt mourn dongbaek etc #and like that was the thing right. thsts not a thing you do in the city. that was part of why roland (who takes lots after wh's themes) #was so exceptional. that is the whole thing about the sickness of the city #to say it in comedia literary criticism terms: sins are split between wrongly-directed love and excess of love with sloth (lack of love) #being an outlier. i think heatho and generally og wh is about excess of love and not wrongly-directed love. it is the thing that lasts #all the way to the other side. it is the shared coffin and meeting again in the next life #i think itd be AWFULLY disappointing to get some boring boring 'they make each other worse' take. being APART due to societal pressures #makes them worse and horribly lonely. death makes them worse baby. so in my mind thats it #we get to see cathy die or still be unreachable in some way and then in very roland style we get furioso mode #and then the ending is about recognizing the love that has in fact been there all along and carrying it with u. and hoping to reunite some #where some other time. NO more slander of that awful girl. YES to the comfort of the memories. #me typing over my foscolo notes like i can surely post about heathcliff really fast and not write a novel in the tags (unaware) #i have more thoughts about this in regards to ruina with xiao and some stuff from leviathan but in the meantime. listen to my ramblings boy #ALSO. considering that implication. he feels for her what queequeg feels for ishy.

suga loves horror movies. and he loves horror of all kinds but he especially loves the campy stuff. like movies that are objectively kind of bad but there's also heart in it. you can tell the creators were passionate about it and loved what they were doing. he feels this way about bad movies in ALL genres but there's something special to him about "bad" low budget horror movies specifically.

and he loves finding these movies and forcing his friends to watch them with him. everyone is on high alert whenever suga recommends a movie for movie night because nine times out of ten it's going to be AWFUL. and he's going to rave about it for an hour after as if it's the best thing ever made.

#hq!! #sugawara koushi #my headcanons #<- i'm starting a tag for just my headcanons #its midnight and i need to shower b4 i go to bed so im not retroactively tagging any posts but i will. later. maybe. #ANYWAY. extra commentary in tags like always #bad movie enthusiast sugawara koushi vs lowkey film snob ennoshita chikara. fight. #suga and ennoshita having passionate debates about film is something SO important to me #and like actually i think ennoshita would sort of understand and RESPECT suga's take on bad movies even if he disagrees #(im going to regret posting this at midnight bc everyone's sleeping but its fine i'll just rb it again tomorrow)

[dracomeir]

Anyway, I had enough of paranoia preventing me from posting stuff. I haven't said shit about any AU of mine for a hot minute, so today I'll say something about King's Guard. I won't be writing this story for awhile (like a year or more in the future since I write slow), and this is prologue stuff anyway so it isn't that much of a spoiler. If you're like me, you'll probably forget this by then anyway. Still going to put it under the read more though. :3

Warning: Major character death, but also not.

For better context, Pico and Boyfriend had no idea about the other's true identity as an assassin and prince respectively. They happened to bump into each other in the market when dressed as commoners, and increasingly frequent encounters made them slowly fall for each other.

When the night the crown prince was going to be named arrived, Pico used the masquerade as an opportunity to sneak in. A few other assassins from the Ravenlight Order, the group he works for, joins him to ensure the prince with the Voice of Authority wouldn't escape. All the ginger was told about his target was that he had blue hair, and that he would be wearing a raven mask. He was also told to proceed with caution since there were rumours about the danger of the prince's Voice. It alone could cause the heaven's light to smite him, and he didn't want to get into a fight if the rumours were true. He could only do so much as an ordinary human after all.

As the target was walking to the throne to accept his role as crown prince, Pico emerged from the crowd to strike. He ended up slashing the man's mask in half, and saw his lover beneath it. With no time to think, he betrays the Ravenlight Order to protect him. An unknown third party overwhelms him as a curse of silence was placed upon Boyfriend. The ginger was stabbed in the back, and his vision faded as the prince was taken away. He thought it was over when a female voice echoed in the darkness.

"I can give you the means to live until you avenge your king. All I need is your soul."

I don't know I just feel like....

We just watched a man self-immolate in his military uniform. And I don't want to sound like an idiot, because it's much more than this but, couldn't you say that was a very extreme form of conscientious objection?

He could not be complicit anymore, but there is literally no way out of being complicit in this genocide if you live in America. For him especially, being trapped in military service. But for all of us. All of us are trapped in complicity in some way, and we can try to counteract that sin with as much meaningful direct action as we can possibly do, but all of that action comes with some proportional level of risk.

So, a man burned himself alive in an extreme form of conscientious objection (the only form available to him - one of great violence)

And people are still on here telling people to suck it up and vote for Biden.

I just... maybe I'm really stupid and I just can't see the logic y'all are putting forward. Because the way you lay it out it all seems to make so much sense to you. I understand we're trapped in a two party system. I understand the Republicans don't have the same consciences we do and are gonna vote en masse for Trump. I understand Trump is a danger globally and domestically. I understand all that, and I don't want his second term to come to pass. I'm not ignorant of how dangerous he is.

But a man self-immolated to object to the system of complicity he's trapped in, and the most logical response y'all have to a bunch of people wanting to opt out of complicity in this election, and the next four years of horrors that will be done in their name is to tell them, you just have to suck it up and be complicit. Your only tool is to make a phone call. You can try to protest, but there's a non-zero chance you'll be beaten and arrested and have your life ruined, by the way. You can donate to try and put a bandaid on the horrors you're seeing through your phone screen everyday (and you should, but God it's sure not stopping anything). But you're not allowed to object to being complicit in the selection of the Genocider-In-Chief.

It's not going to stop the genocide. We know this. It's not going to stop the election. We know this. It's not going to change anything directly, and Trump is going to get elected (which he will either way. most people who would vote against him are doing it anyway, y'all are fighting a very very small online minority).

But a man self-immolated in his military uniform. He didn't think that act was going to directly stop aid from going to Israel, or stop the genocide, or destroy the US military industrial complex. He didn't think his one small (but extremely brave and impactful) act was going to solve everything. Everything that was going to happen is still going to happen just with one less man in uniform.

But it wasn't nothing. It didn't do nothing. It's not his fault that the military will keep on chugging. It's not his fault that things are getting worse in Gaza every day. But he's not complicit anymore and he sent a message. And he had to die to achieve that.

And y'all are telling us we can't even do the very small act of not being complicit in the presidency. It's a less effective act of protest, but I also don't have to die for it.

It's not a boycott (I've seen this strawman, i don't know why you think we think that). It's not going to "send a message to the government" (obviously, we're not ignorant). It's to the Party that runs these candidates, and makes money off of "pick us because we're not the other guy" then commits crimes against humanity. I don't want to roll over and be fucking complicit in that.

Parties and candidates look at those numbers. they see how many people voted for them last time and how many people this time.

They don't care about our voices, and our protests, and our emails. They care about donations, and they care about votes. That's it. That's all they look at. If the emails and the phone calls and the protests don't result in a drop in one of those two things, they don't fucking care.

I don't know. This is a long ass ramble, but I'm trying to work out my feelings about this. Because we can't opt out of paying taxes, we can't really opt out of the benefits of living and being born in the Global North, we can't opt out of work, we can't opt out of the military, we can't opt out of following the law without extreme violence being brought against us. We can't do a whole fucking lot besides call, email, donate, and protest in a way that doesn't get us beaten and arrested, and if you do get beaten and arrested, you'll be dealing with the legal consequences for years or potentially the rest of your life.

And a man burned himself to death to object but I can't withhold my vote???
