One really fun aspect of conversation about the water crisis that faces the American West (and genuinely much of the world) is when people ask something along the lines of “how do we solve it?” and expect this glorious answer that fits in the mindset of infinite growth or that doesn’t change the way the current world works and then you have to hold their hand and watch the light drain from their eyes as you tell them that our system is not sustainable which is why we’re in a crisis and it will take using less and drastically changing our habits or risk the consequences of running out of water and that this is the direction that we’re heading into in terms of all our resources
seeing fanart of breaking bad characters hanging out is funny and i love it but it’s also insane in retrospect because i can’t think of any piece of media where every character hates each other so fucking much. like nobody in that show likes each other at all
Sometimes you need to read something twice to get it. You might need to watch a movie three times to understand it. You might have to have that album on repeat for a week until the lyrics make any sense. You're allowed to engage with it and can keep engaging with it until it means something to you. People will see a painting at a museum and laugh about not getting what the big deal is but like you can come back, you can see it at another time, and maybe that next time it'll be different for you. I'm of the belief the "media literacy crisis" would solve itself if more people just sat down and did it again. Watched, read, played, listened, etc like I don't think people are getting more ignorant necessarily I just think we're not glorifying personally replaying things nearly as much as we should be.
Look im not saying that the DWSA versions of Spring Awakening songs are better than the original , but the DWSA versions of Spring Awakening songs are better than the original
Everyone joking about “scaring off the twitters” and “firing shots into the air to keep rent low” but few doing their part. Post homestuck.
People who never go to a bathroom with a trans person are most upset.
People who share bathrooms don't five a fcuk.

I think if the earth stopped spinning time would stop. because of days etc.
i will never fucking forgive the community on this site for the years of “ace discourse”. we were being actively hated for our orientations and everyone just treated it like a fucking debate topic or fucking mocked us for being effected by it. it became such a widespread thing to laugh at that even people who were otherwise okay with us were reblogging aphobic memes and getting mad that we “couldn’t take a joke” when we were upset by it.
and today, people who got swept up in aphobic movements look back at that time like “haha, i was such a cringe teen for participating in ace discourse” rather than “i was shitty and bigotted and i sincerely regret it”; a lot of them probably still ARE aphobic but just don’t talk about it anymore because it’s no longer trendy.
