The "Jedi no fight in war because that's wroooong" crowd never seem to have anything to say about original trilogy era Jedi fighting in the galactic civil war
"But that's different!" They say
Is it?
The reasons for the Jedi to fight in clone wars are the same as the reasons to fight in the galactic civil war
The separatists: are lead by sith, are an oppressive tyrannical regime, committed multiple genocides/atrocities, and intended to wipe out the Jedi
The empire: are lead by sith, are an oppressive tyrannical regime, committed multiple genocides/atrocities, and intended to wipe out the Jedi
The only thing that makes the empire worse than the separatists is that they're a human supremacist regime
(Also it's never a good idea to sit out a conflict where one side wants your culture/group dead, your neutrality will not save you, it will in fact get you killed)

ATLA fans getting more pissed that Sokka’s not sexist in the the live action more than they did when we found out the actor faked being indigenous is interesting to me.

Ok well no one asked me for this (potentially) unpopular opinion but I'm going to give it anyway. I do agree that the nuclear family is bad, but quite often you see people making that argument by trying to assert that it's bad because it's a Western capitalist innovation which is unsustainable in a world where both parents need to work in order to pay the rent and also encourages parents to be authoritarian, and extended families all living together under a single roof such as is allegedly commonplace in non-Western societies is a much better way of raising kids. And my opinion is that no it isn't.

Il thinking about how shigaraki most likely never got the full birds and the bees talk, so if he ever got you pregnant, it would be like:
You: “Tomura, I’m pregnant.”
Shigaraki: “Is it mine?”
You: “Yes.”
Shigaraki: “... Is it yours?”
You: “...”
IMAGINE YOU TELL HIM YES AND HE'S JUST LIKE, "we were so careful, though?"
Like, TOMURA!!! You just think you were careful because you don't know what careful really means... wearing a condom isn't being safe if you proceed to fuck so hard that it literally ends up SPLITTING💔💔💔
He's like, "oh yeah, huh..." while Dabi and Toga just groan in the background ajkhaljk

The trailer shows part of the car crash, I'm sickened 😔
Actually, they haven’t even filmed that yet! They were supposed to film it right when Elizabeth died and now they keep pushing it back. Reports are saying they’re nervous about filming it.
What’s in the trailer is probably some weird foreshadowing that they’re going to try and do.

10/10 I really liked this book. I liked how they went off of that little nursery rhyme. And I think the way they changed the title to fit the times was clever. It’s still a part of the rhyme but less offensive. There are definitely points where “oooh you can’t say that anymore.. oh boy.. no no no..” I was shook at one point, but that’s what it was like at that point in time.
I didn’t really mean to read it in one sitting, but it was good and well paced so I read all of it. Dunno what time it was when I started reading, but I would make a guess that it took me between 2 hours and 90 minutes. Usually shorter books like this take about the same time as a movie. Like coralline or a Nancy Drew book, or a Shakespeare play.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

I just think that 'animals are living intelligent creatures that have feelings and deserve to be respected' and 'when done properly farming is beneficial to both people and animals and there's nothing wrong with raising and killing animals for food, clothing, and other products' are concepts that very much can and should coexist

I am actually so serious I think it really messes with a childs creativity and joy to tell them to never make a mary sue OC. Like that unbridaled form of joy where you make a self insert OC who super cool and everyone loves them and they have every superpower in the world SHOULD be something a kid makes, it nourishes their ability to create things for fun and not be stifled by "oh but what if my character is too overpowered and cringey...". whatever
