Secularist society that takes the cigarettes approach to religion and it’s totally legal but all religious texts require a big sticker thst says “THERE IS NO EVIDENCE FOR GOD” or whatever. And at the start of every sermon you have to give a disclaimer thst you’re making it all up. Etc. Kinda based

your parents catch you reading a bible and you have to finish the whole pack
yo…. when jet breaks in the tea shop and accuses zuko and iroh of beinh firebenders….
do you think any of the patrons looked at zukos scarred face - obviously done by a firebender - and immediately think jet was an asshole? like
jet: hes a firebender!!!!
patrons, thinking about the backstory they concocted for zuko and iroh where their home was invaded by firebenders and they barely survived with their lifes so they could come and have a peaceful life selling tea in a city the war doesnt touch:
Jet: He’s a firebender!
The Patrons to the Tea Shop internally: You fucking stupid, sir? I think you might be stupid.
Fandom has been taking down those extremely intricate and helpful GameFAQs text guides because they’re a terrible company run by rat bastards, so if you care about archiving those old guides for a smoother experience on the earliest generation of games, i’ve linked prograc’s archive of just about every single one you can think of. make sure to download the whole 7z file (its ~2GB), as this is undoubtedly the most accurate and useful tool for anybody wanting to experience video game history.
No, we lived in the blessed timeline, because the creator of a harmless webcomic character that got turned into a meme sued the shit out of neo-nazis for appropriating his art and using it to recruit kids to their fucked up ideology.

eye-opening tumblr post for me included the words “people are meant to be burdens” as in humans rely on and support one another and it’s not a bother it’s our purpose; to love and be loved in return. so if you ever think you’re being annoying just remember we were made to love and it’s going to be okay
this tiktok screenshot ruined my life i need to see the serbian pigeon movie so so badly but it doesn’t exist it’s so foul to make this bad of a point with something so cool and then take it away from me.
Tiktok marvel fans really will be out here like “movie fan SHOCKED because i’d rather watch superhero movie #54 in blue and not a sensual 1987 french horror film about a man discovering his wife may not exist set in what is gradually revealed to be a space station” as if you’re supposed to agree that superhero movie #54 is the clear winner in this comparison
Love the idea of a story about a complex issue that’s told from the perspective of something that cannot comprehend or care about the issue. The way the story would be sliced up and moments that a human would consider pointless would be focused on because the pigeon happened to be there would be hype as fuck
Ok FINE I made the movie poster of it
Mališa, otherwise known as Little One, is a pet pigeon owned by a conservative butler of the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy. She is loved, and she is pampered— until her owner is murdered in cold blood, and she is left to fend for herself in Sarajevo.
In the wilds of the city, she feeds from the poor, working nationalist radicals, and the vieux riches alike.
To Mališa, there are no ethical concerns. No politics. No burgeoning nationalism.
There are only hands that feed her, and hands that do not.
This is compelling. Consider me fucking compelled.
Final shot is the bird hearing, but not seeing, the sound of a .32 ACP pistol, and flying away in shock
Transgender people in my phone you’d better live you’d better love you’d better live long enough to become old and annoy your great grandnephews you’d better watch trashy movies you’d better meet new people you love and hate and forget and remember you’d better hang in there for better and worse you’d better smell the dust after the rain and remember that you’re alive and full of beautiful sturdy bones you’d better hold onto that friend and never let them go you’d better keep living and living and living and never stop
between tiktok and youtube slop, kids these days are subjected to possibly one of the worst media diets in the history of mankind. unlike me who was raised on the same 10 commercials for corn syrup products cycling between variety shows, as nature intended
People talk about politics as if it’s this isolated, abstract concept that only matters at election time. Somebody’s politics is their world view. It’s whether they think certain human beings deserve rights. It’s how they think the world should be. And if somebody thinks that the world should be colder, meaner, less accepting and downright hostile to people that are different to them, then sure as fuck is the friendship over.
People who don’t let politics affect their friendships are proof that they have never experienced real hardship. A person who doesn’t like trump but can stay friends with a trump voter is the person who never has to worry about being beaten when they walk into a bathroom with the trump voter
The year is 2030 and they just remade Breaking bad but now… its WOKE!!! Its now called Breaking Trans and instead of cooking meth they cook estrogen. Walter White is now Walter Black. Jesse Pinkman is now Jesse Pinkwoman. Gus is now gay and has a boyfriend who was killed by the Salamancas. Walter now has a disabled son who he defends from harassment. Saul is now a femboy twink and is named Saul Twinkman. Walter and Saul have gay sex for half the episode in every other episode, in season 4 it becomes a threesome with Mike. Tuco is now a woman named Tuca and shes also gay. Halfway through the show Walter Jr transitions and names herself Madeline. Instead of dying at the end Walter also transitions and says “I’m Breaking Trans”
Why are Palestinians not allowed to have any allies? This is the same vein of people who lament about how “oh I only trust Palestinians to talk about Palestine” - we as Palestinians are asking you to speak up. It will always be just an excuse not to care or do anything. (And yes, what’s happening in Palestine actually does involve Americans!)
weird that palestine is this far off nebulous thing that can only affect you directly if your own family is being killed over there
but funding israel monetarily, sending israel weapons, sending israel munitions, sending police and military and robotics to israel, supporting israel killing palestinians daily as a irrevocable policy is just this thing that happens out of nowhere and shouldnt be stopped by anyone
Shout out to anyone that ever made a character that’s a ‘Secret
Government experiment’ that escapes the lab and is now wanted and
misunderstood.
That’s top tier character design, thank you.
We are witnessing the grotesque reality of the martyred Palestinians and thousands of their massacred children being written off as mere afterthoughts. The way western media outlets steadfastly refuse to call the Israeli aggression and onslaught for what it is, which is genocide and ethnic cleansing, is just another way of dehumanizing Palestinians.
I’m reposting this with a link to some sources from the OP, btw; I’m sorry for not tagging them, but Tumblr won’t let me and I’m guessing it’s a privacy settings thing.
Neither “the magic is going away” nor “the magic is just beginning” but “the magic has been around for fifty years and society has only partly adjusted”
