Literally already people on BluSky bitching and moaning that people on Fedi are being killjoys about the guilty verdict.
I'm so fucking sorry we know liberals check the FUCK out the moment they think shit is over.
I'm so fucking sorry they keep over hyping everyone up about consequences over and over again for jack shit to happen and that it still gives people faith in this fucking useless system of "justice."
I'm so fucking sorry asshats keeps acting like the legal system is gonna save us when it is literally designed to protect assholes like Trump but this guilty verdict will cause people to falsely believe once more it works, so they'll plug their ears and sing a little song in front of anyone who feels otherwise.
Perhaps, if anyone gave flying fucks about what is happening to those of use most harmed by these ongoing bullshit beliefs so we got to actually have fun without constant existential dread all the damn time, we could joke and giggle freely with all y'all.
I already know how capable people are of lying to themselves. They're down to let tons of people like me fucking die from a pandemic to pretend shit is "normal." They're gonna think he was convicted so there's no way he can win the presidency now, relax like this shit is all done, and usher in a wave of fascism they have no tools to deal with and will actively deny exists.
Enjoy being nothing but silly for a bit though I guess. Fuck the consequences of our actions amirite?
Anything from Vox Media and The Atlantic is now untrustworthy in any capacity from now on. Remember this when reading or linking to any articles in the future.
To every person who has shown me kindness
To every person who has injured me
I will cherish and nurture the memory of you until the flame of my life is snuffed out of existence: Equally
For you have made me, and I can only hope for better or worse I enriched the making of you as well
It's pretty homophobic that I don't get to be tempted into a cat carrier with treats to go see the doctor and instead have to get into a wheelchair van with a random stranger that always shows up way too damn early instead...
See, I didn't even bite the dentist ONCE but god forbid someone squeeze something tasty for me out of a plastic tube to lick up for being a good girl after! :meowbongorage:
As I recently had to study some things involving Japan's diplomacy with the PRC for an anime related article, this is hilariously marvelous in ways far to complex to explain in a fedi post
Watching The Sword and the Stone on the VCR as background noise and have to share my objectively correct opinion that Arthur absolutely fumbled by not living out the rest of his life raising a family with this absolute queen.
He had an absolutely adoring lady who was head over heels for him AND a cutie to boot? How DARE he leave her heartbroken! Fuck England, we didn't need British people taking over the world but she did need her man! :meowbongorage:
Heck, feeling a tad rough today. Worn out is an understatement. One of those times you're so tired it's hard to do things that help you recharge, ya know?
I need like, non stop cuddles and silly movie watching. Perhaps pizza, or like, those easy throw in the microwave yakisobas. Caffeine also wouldn't hurt.
Who's down for a dollar store run and snug? I'm sure we can travel through the internet to make this happen! :meowthinking:
Unfortunately, I actually have to make an unavoidable trip to the bank before it gets brutally hot outside so I don't get to just sit and be eepy and comfy :meowsad:
You'd better realize disability justice, Palestinian liberation, and SO many more causes are all tied together in this one movement and show solidarity.
Without the Black Panthers, we disabled people would not have succeeded in this occupation of a federal building.
These same people also called for the liberation of Palestinians. From a press conference in 1970, “We support the Palestinian’s just struggle for liberation one hundred percent. We will go on doing this, and we would like for all of the progressive people of the world to join in our ranks in order to make a world in which all people can live."
Even back then, people claimed these Black folks were "racists in reverse" and called them antisemitic. This pattern would continue to be used to silence people. Hell, remember when the BLM movement came under fire for its support of Palestine while Palestinians painted murals of George Floyd?
When you come to realize Black people have higher rates of Disability than the white population because of garbage our police state puts them through, you should start to get it. We ALL must fight against colonizers across the world.
P.S. Let's not forget when Netanyahu himself sent cops to beat and arrest disabled protestors in Israel who were occupying roads, buildings, and even set up a one week encampment at one point, to fight for basic disability rights from 2017 to 2019.
Oh wait, did you never hear of the Disabled Panthers movement in Israel? Wonder why that got hushed up! Anyways, did you know the NYPD trains with the IDF? Who gave them the idea to beat folks occupying buildings and starting encampments do ya think, was it the guy calling for cops to be even more brutal to protestors this very week?
In all seriousness, all of these movements are the same movement in the end. We all want liberation, justice, and fair treatment. We're all tired of fascist police states taking that from us. Remember the 3.5% rule and let us all be a part of those numbers together to liberate the world!
Love medical rides to appointments, love being picked up 20 minutes early to my scheduled pickup time. Love being dropped off an entire hour before my appointment starts. Love having to wait up to an hour after my appointment to get a ride home. Love how my time as a disabled person is valued by society at large /s
LOVE being dropped off over three blocks from my requested location!!! LOVE getting absolutely soaked trying to wheel to my appointment in the rain where my grips are so slippery on my chair from the water that I can hardly get traction!!! LOVE that the driver ignored me saying we weren't in the right place and forced me to get off anyways!!! LOVE THAT EVERY NECESSARY MEDICAL APPOINTMENT I GO TO INVOLVES BEING EMOTIONALLY BRUTALIZED BY PEOPLE WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO CARE FOR YOU!!!
Americans think "from the river to the sea" means Palestinians want to wipe everyone out because they remember what "from sea to shining sea" meant for indigenous people in their country.
Canadians think think "from the river to the sea" means Palestinians want to wipe everyone out because they remember what "a mari usque ad mare" meant for indigenous people in their country.
