I swear louis and harry’s teams live in an alternate reality because the way they try to sell these stunts is always so ridiculous and so fucking predictable.
oh, here’s an idea “what if we search for rockstar makeup girlfriend on her pinterest? and also let’s dress her like a pop punk queen (even though she never dressed like that before) because that would reaaaaaally appeal to your fan base?” or even “you know what would be a great idea? if you and the director of your upcoming movie show up (along with the paps *wink wink*) to your manager’s wedding and you guys hold hands while at it?? (nooo it’s not a problem that it’s in the middle of a pandemic)” or maybe “we know you haven’t really acted like a father in the last 6 years but what if we bring the kid to JUST ONE of your shows and for the rest of your interviews that’s ALL you talk about even though you have an album to promote?” oooooor “even though she is a boss woman who calls herself a feminist, what if she abandons her whole career (and also her kids) to keep following you and your world tour while you pretend she doesn’t exist and you never, ever, aknowledge her???”
do these people live under a ROCK? I SWEAR if they did the most basic research this shit would not be so laughable

I've seen a Palestinian woman gaslight herself into believing Political Zionism has nothing to do with the extremist "Jewish Supremacy" idealogy that has controlled Israel's policies since the beginning of Israel's existence.
Palestinians are pressured and even gaslit into accepting an ahistorical, revisionist, asinine history of political Zionism that presents it as a purely white supremacist ideology that has nothing to do with extremist Jewish Supremacy. This bullshit should be unacceptable.
It's truly insane how Palestinians are pressured to this extent to coddle the feelings of anti-Zionist Jews.
Are the victims of ISIS pressured at all to coddle the feelings of Muslims in general? Are they even expected to give a damn?

At least there are honest Jewish historians debunking this asinine, revisionist take:

I’ve talked about this with some friends, but the whole Spotify/audiobook drama legitimately makes me want to cry.
If you are unaware, earlier in the month, Spotify, who now owns FindawayVoices -- an audiobook distributor and one of the only major rivals to Audible on the creator end -- announced that their ToS would be updating.
The ToS updates were horrendous and basically allowed Spotify to make royalty-free translations of our works, as well as create derivatives, and basically just fuck us all over and feed all of our hard work into AI.
The backlash was so swift that less than 12 hours later, Spotify sent out a panicked “Sorry our wording wasn’t clear!” email with a promised update. Less than 24 hours later they issued a statement walking back the changes to the ToS, and have since been pulling a “we never said that, you misread our unclear verbiage” when in reality the verbiage was very clear (Not Spotify trying to pull a “gaslight gatekeep girl boss ✌️”), they just didn't expect to get dragged out into the metaphorical court of social media and get publicly annihilated with authors withdrawing their work from the platform and customers canceling their subscriptions left right and center.
Anyway, the walk back was acceptable enough for me to not feel the need to remove my work entirely from FindAway -- which is good because I would have lost access to the global audiobook market if I had, not to mention global library access. Which, again, is good. A significant chunk of my audiobook earnings comes from Libby, and I’d honestly be lost without that $20 every month. (we get paid quarterly but it breaks out to about $20 a month.)
What the walk back was not good enough for, was for me to trust them to keep streaming Hunger Pangs on their Spotify streaming service. Because quite frankly, I don't trust them not to pull some more ToS bullshit, and this is the part making me want to cry.
Why? Because I’m going through my royalty reports, and for the single month of December 2023 alone, Hunger Pangs was streamed so often it earned $400.
In one month.
That's more than I earn from Audible in a year.
That's more than I earn from kobo, b&n, libby, libro.fm and several author distributors combined in a year.
I’m going to scream.

END the copaganda that not giving your DNA to your cops makes you more suspicious.
END the copaganda that if you don't tell your side of the story to a cop you're going to be arrested.
END the copaganda that not allowing the cops into your home without a warrant is criminal behavior.
END the copaganda that not allowing cops to interrogate you without an attorney present is inherently more suspicious.
END the copaganda that if you don't speak to a cop that stops you on the street, you are breaking a law.
this is all bullshit and it is framed in a way that destroys your constitutional right to be protected from unreasonable intrusions into your life and into your home. it is a way for cops and the law enforcement system to intrude on your privacy in ways they are legally not allowed to, by making YOU feel like YOU will be seen as a bad guy for standing up for your rights.*
demand to see a warrant. if they stop you on the street, ask if you're being detained and if so, why. do not speak to cops without your attorney present. that is WHY miranda rights exist. you are ALLOWED to keep your mouth shut.
*ALL of this is stuff that will be more dangerous to do if you are black or brown or visibly trans or queer or disabled. if at ANY POINT you feel that you are going to be at risk of harm for doing these things, you are NOT at fault for complying. your rights are important but they are not more important than preserving your life. stay safe out there y'all.

yes i am obsessed with touch-starved crowley and aziraphale being touchy and needy and clinging to each other.
yes i am ALSO obsessed with post-divorce era hate sex with as little touching as possible because they have capital I Issues TM and are suffering because they're still touch-starved.
we exist

zak brown saying "breaking up with daniel was very difficult, blah blah blah." i'm sorry were you not the one that hung him out to try in the media every single fucking week in 2022, and told him over the fucking break that he was losing his seat even after he released a public statement that he was committed to the team? you don't get to be all sad about it now that everyone loves him again, like fuck you actually.

I think Wyll is prettier than Astarion. There I said it. Astarion is more interesting certainly but mainly because Wyll is easier to look at. I just kick my legs and giggle whenever he's on screen. Mesmerized by him. Cannot tear my eyes away type shit.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, please learn to talk to butches, in fact, learn to talk to people, just be normal about butches, start with treating them as human beings instead of sex objects for your fantasies.

Hey if you're a white person (as I am too!) and reading the stuff about End OTW Racism (@end-otw-racism) is making you uncomfortable CONGRATULATIONS THATS THE POINT bipoc have been uncomfortable in fandom for decades and some of yall can't face being uncomfortable for five seconds and still have the gall to have shit like BLM in your descriptions.
Put your money where your mouth is. Be uncomfortable. Actually read what they're talking about and what changes they're proposing instead of jumping right to BuT wHaT aBoUt My DaRk FiC (they want to protect your dark fic and help ensure you're safer from harassment over it!)and ThEy'Re PrO-cEnSoRsHiP (they are explicitly not).
I'm so fucking tired of having my posts and those I reblog on this topic largely ignored on my personal account, but ESPECIALLY I'm furious about how ignored posts on racism in fandom are when I put them on the danmei art sideblogs.
I see racism every single fucking DAY as part of running those accounts. This isn't some nebulous thing happening elsewhere, this is us!
If you don't care, I really need you to take a long hard look in the mirror and ask yourself WHY DONT I CARE?
Because YOU SHOULD FUCKING CARE.
