Shit's scary, I know. But we absolutely cannot afford to surrender to that fear, because that benefits the GOP. They want us to feel powerless, because they know we are not powerless. That's why they have so many shills and bots discouraging people from voting.
We will not demoralize ourselves and each other by doomposting in our moments of panic. If we have a panic attack, that's okay. But we are not going to spread that fear to other people in public. We will save our most scared thoughts for our private journals and close friends. And we will support our friends who are feeling hopeless.
We will remember that spreading awareness of Project 2025 and Agenda 47 has been hurting Trump. And we will continue to do this.
We will remember that right now, our only option is Biden, because without ranked choice voting, getting a third party candidate in is simply impossible. We might not like it, but that's why we're going to push like hell for ranked choice voting once we get his pruny old ass in to office for a second term. (And thank God, he can't have more than a second term; the Democrats will have to find someone else afterward.)
We will not spread conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories are the weapon of the enemy. We don't need them.
We will not publicly mock Trump in all of this. Making Republicans feel even more victimized is a losing strategy. "But it's my blog-" I'm sorry, are you playing for political keeps or are you just here to fuck around and put everyone's life in even more danger?
We will emphasize the ways that Project 2025/Agenda 47 will hurt everyone. And we will keep talking about it.
We will remember that the UK and France have already avoided far right takeovers in their elections.
All right? You got that? Because we got this if we stick together and keep at this. Shit's bad right now but that doesn't mean it has to be bad forever. We got each other, and we can do this.
no one will know which one it is.
I wish the general cultural idea of what the book 1984 contains included how fucking horny it was. Like it was very pro-"horny on main"
Your gender is now the first randomized wikipedia article you get. No rerolls.
Shout out to Realicide fans. Thanks for turning my philosophical beliefs into a tumblr sexyman. I want his outfit. I want to put him in the microwave.
They hated Jesus because he spoke the truth…
After reading Orwell's 1984, I have come to the conclusion that Winston and O'Brien is a form of toxic yaoi
Romancing the Abject, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Others’ Hate
Albert Camus, The Stranger (1942) // The Mountain Goats, "Heretic Pride" // George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) // Kate Beaton, "Hark! A Vagrant" // Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves (2000) // "cringe isnt an insult" // Augusten Burroughs, Running With Scissors (2002) // my explanation preemptive apology for this post // Hermann Hesse, Demian (1919) // Pink Guy, "Fried Noodles"
Do you think 1984 would have been a better book if it had included any explicitly queer characters?
this might be the best bait ask ive ever seen, beautiful work
broo this fucking sucks i'm gonna [remembers suicide jokes are bad for my mental health] murder an old pawnbroker with an axe, act like the most suspicious person in all of st. petersburg while wrestling with my guilty concience, confess to it all within like 72 hours, and be exiled to siberia.
The weirdo in the back of your English class. Toxic yaoi enjoyer, but I’ll also post about my other things.
