Its a crime that old spice is marketed just to men, I want to smell like a cinnamon stick, please and a thank you, but my mom’s like “you’re going to smell like a man!” A.) Ok sure. I’ll smell like a man, then. What do I care. And 2.) what does a man naturally smell like?!? I was at an understanding that humans in general mostly smell like. Y’know. Sweat. But apparently dudes smell like nutmeg! Sounds fake but ok

[ID: Tweet thread by @LunaOi_VN, broken up into three images. Tweet 1:

Sometimes I forgot that I was born when Vietnam was still being comprehensively embargoed by the US.

The economic sanction was lifted when I was 15 and my life change drastically since then.

Lemme tell ya, sanction sucks.

[Tweet 2:

In the sanction time: - No fresh milk except this condensed milk. It was like super fancy at that time. - No soft drinks like Coke, pepsi… - Virtually no candies or cookies except when I was sick or it was Tet holiday, my mom would buy me some Hai Chau cookies.

[images of condensed milk and the aforementioned cookies]

[Tweet 3 (beginning of second image):

- No clean water. We had to drink yellow water from our well. - No stable electricity so of course there was no fridge, no oven, no electric rice cooker… - No gas/electric stove. I had to cook with straw/wood stove my whole childhood.

[Tweet 4:

- No new clothes. I had to wear old clothes from my older brother. - When I was 10, I was chosen to study in art class but I could not join because my mom could not afford new art supplies for me. - Meat was somethign very fancy at that time. I could only eat beef twice a month.

[Tweet 5:

- Virtually no medicine except for some basic anti-biotics and vitamins. - Mostly all the vaccines we had were from Cuba. Thanks, Cuba! And yes, Cubans vaccines are running through my veins to this day.

[Tweet 6 (beginning of third image):

After the sanction was lifted: - I finally could have some fresh milk. - Instant noodles became affordable. - Finally new clothes! Hell yeah! - More medicine, more vaccines.

[images of consumer food products, IDK]

[Tweet 7:

My final thought:

Fuck the US and its sanction!!!

And fuck YOU if you think sanction doesn’t affect a whole country’s economy and the life of millions of people just because the US says so.

[Tweet 8:

Vietnam was under US sanction for just 25 years, meanwhile Cuba has been under US sanction for 60 fucking years!!! That is I am so pissed at any fucking bootlickers and CIA-sympathizers who blaimed Cuba for what they has been going through. #HandsOffCuba

ICYMI:

Members of the Red Lake Nation sent out to perform a ceremony on their treaty lands, but were assaulted & arrested. They chose treaty lands at the mouth of a pipeline Enbridge is has been trying to lay (With pushback and even sabotage from water protectors). Treaty rights surpass all federal and state laws, but Enbridge and their badge wearing guard dogs don't care.

This is Alex Golden Wolf explaining (they've since been arrested, their venmo & the bailout account are below).

Update from Red Lake Treaty Camp now:

Alex Golden Wolf, Two spirit Indigenous leader of the white Earth Nation was violently arrested out of ceremony before the completion of the ceremony. Alex is a staff carrier, and a care taker of Indigenous Children, she helps with language and art skills at Camp Migizi.

Today at Red Lake Treaty Camp indigenous leaders gathered at sunrise to do ceremony in front of the gates of the construction site where Enbridge is drilling under the Red Lake River in order to lay an oil pipeline on land protected by treaty rights. This sacred ceremony was interrupted by police with no regard for indigenous traditions. Along with Alex Golden Wolf, around 20 indigenous leaders and allies who formed a peaceful blockade around those in ceremony where arrested.

Red Lake Treaty Camp is currently under blockade by the police, with no one allowed in or out. A water protector who locked down to the drill this morning was extracted and work has begun again.

Water protectors are being threatened. Treaty rights are being trampled on. Indigenous two spirit folks are being assaulted. Stop Line 3.

Venmo: @Alex-golden-wolf

it’s wild to me the way ppl react when they learn that some memes explicitly endorse fascism. like the fucking buff aryan dude/tradwife thing or “reject modernity embrace tradition” (literally just a nazi slogan and nothing else)

sooooo many times ive seen ppl, as soon as theyre informed about this, say “well isn’t it still ok to spread those memes if you’re using them to make fun of the original fascist intent?” like……….. you just fucking learned what the intent was. how do u expect anyone to believe you were Doing A Satire about that intent before you even knew about it? it makes. no sense.

cis people when a trans person turns out to be a bad person: oh so i can misgender them now? i can misgender them now right? now it’s okay for me to completely disrespect their identity and show other trans people their pronouns are a privilege right? i can do that now? i can be blatantly and violently transphobic to this person even though it has nothing to do with what they did right?

POST PLUS IS COMING, WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT!

Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.

SO WHAT ARE WE DOING?

Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.

Ad revenue.

We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.

WHEN IS THE PROTEST?

AUGUST 6th, 2021        12 am Eastern Time (US)          5 am Greenwich Mean Time          6 am Central European Time          8 am Moscow Standard Time          1 pm Australian Western Time          2 pm Japan Standard Time          3:30 pm Australian Central Time          4 pm Australian Eastern Time AUGUST 5th, 2021          11 pm Mountain Time (US)            9 pm Pacific Time (US)

THE END TIME IS 24 HOURS FROM START TIME!!!

So no posting, no queues, no likes, and no reblogs!

WHAT IF I CAN’T/WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

Like this post and share it AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE. Use the hashtags #tumblrlogoff2021 or #postplusprotest on ANY and ALL social media.

WILL THIS WORK?

Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing SOMETHING.
