And It Is A Bit Of A Parallel To Clarisse’s Spear. Her Heartbroken Scream. These Objects Are The Only

Reblog to make it die faster

Friendly reminder

look, I know I've talked about this essay (?) before but like,

If you ever needed a good demonstration of the quote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", have I got an exercise for you.

Somebody made a small article explaining the basics of atomic theory but it's written in Anglish. Anglish is basically a made-up version of English where they remove any elements (words, prefixes, etc) that were originally borrowed from romance languages like french and latin, as well as greek and other foreign loanwords, keeping only those of germanic origin.

What happens is an english which is for the most part intelligible, but since a lot everyday english, and especially the scientific vocabulary, has has heavy latin and greek influence, they have to make up new words from the existing germanic-english vocabulary. For me it kind of reads super viking-ey.

Anyway when you read this article on atomic theory, in Anglish called Uncleftish Beholding, you get this text which kind of reads like a fantasy novel. Like in my mind it feels like it recontextualizes advanced scientific concepts to explain it to a viking audience from ancient times.

Even though you're familiar with the scientific ideas, because it bypasses the normal language we use for these concepts, you get a chance to examine these ideas as if you were a visitor from another civilization - and guess what, it does feel like it's about magic. It has a mythical quality to it, like it feels like a book about magic written during viking times. For me this has the same vibe as reading deep magic lore from a Robert Jordan book.

Hell yeah!

Why does the US gov’t support Israel no matter what?

Hint: it has to do with imperialism.

BT’s @keipritsker explains the crucial role Israel plays in US domination of the Middle East and geopolitics.

everyone. on christmas day, december 25th, we all search up “halloween” to make it a trending search. it would be the FUNNIEST thing ever to see halloween be a trending search on christmas day. tell all your friends, repost this, do everything you can to make sure we can do this. REBLOG AS MUCH AS YOU CAN.

While protesting the Israel-Palestine war, please remember that Israelis≠IDF. And please remember that true Zionism is not wanting to erase Palestine. It is simply wishing for us Jews to have a place of our own.

And please remember that Israelis exist when you say “from the river to the sea.”

There is so much animosity between Israelis and Palestinians. Israelis would not be treated well under Palestine, meaning a two-state solution would be the best. Hamas and IDF are manipulating all of us. Please, be on the side of the innocent Israelis and Palestinians.
