when christian artists change the line in hallelujah from “maybe there’s a God above” to “I know that there’s a God above” >:c

hey reminder to continue boycotting eurovision and instead turn your eyes on gaza where the last media outlet al jazeera has just been shut down so that Israel can launch its attack on the most densely populated area in the world without scrutiny. Dont stop talking about Palestine

Ooooh apparently it starts tonight so here's some important advice for people watching Eurovision this week!!

1.) Don't.

No wonder the world looks so bleak. The only jobs people care about helping people get into are "high demand jobs" in short the trades or factory work. One is specialised( a lot of which require being good at math) and one will destroy your body.

In short its always about money and never about helping people do what they actually want to do.

#just let me stock goddang shelves please #there's an article about them plugging money into a high demand job program #and i am once again bashing my head off a wall not physically #because i am so so tired of all the high paying our graduates get jobs bullcrap

Lmao you’re an adult, you shouldn’t be using the word squick. Use trigger. Use your grown up adult words to explain how you feel instead of leaning on a cutesy uwu term that no one outside of tumblr uses. It’s embarrassing.

Idek if this is serious or ironic honestly

Are you Australian? Are you worried about Australia's zero-consequence attitude towards Israel's treatment of Palestinians? Sign this officially registered petition which calls for Australia to cut diplomatic ties with Israel specifically over their treatment of Palestinians.

Insane to me that the UK government is slowly trying to legislate trans people out of existence and I have not seen a single person talk about it

#and then of course the uk has that law where you can get committed for whatever reason #thats been the same since the 80s #i was looking into it when I was talking to a friend

"If it really was all that bad then they wouldn't do it" is not that solid an argument about anything.

In this case it was about bagged milk which only exists because Trudeau senior thought it would be so much cheaper to produce.

The only benefit you get to bagged milk is an extra litre. That's it.

It is not worth the environmental impact. It uses more plastic than a 2 litre carton of milk does.

#like i know my enviromental efforts mean jack all #because we can't even recycle #no blue bin and when we had one it was just one of those wheelie bins #one for 3 buildings over 10 units over 30 people

Looks like the paralympics and probably the olympics too will have to be boycotted. Isreal is participating in the paralympics. Checked and they are also participating in the olympics.

Speaking of boycotting Eurovision, after my latest reblog (linked), I need to express my thoughts, since this morning I've read the worst takes ever.

Some people saying "I just won't watch the Israeli entry" or "Actually boycotting doesn't work, just let us have this fun thing when the world is so awful right now" or "Boycotting from your sofa is just performative activism".

My gosh. Get educated.

The Palestinian Call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israel asked for a boycott of the whole contest. A quote from the linked article says:

Participating in Eurovision for Israel is “a dream, in particular this year, when it has even more meaning.” Since October 2023, Israel has murdered more than 30,000 Palestinians in Gaza, including at least 12,300 children, and injured a further 70,000. Understanding the contest’s propaganda value, particularly in the time of genocide, the Israeli president Isaac Herzog says, “it’s important for Israel to appear in Eurovision.”

So, "just watching anything but the Israeli entry" does not count as boycotting.

"The world is awful right now" because awful people try to make propaganda out of "this fun thing", participating in a grandiose festival while people are still being killed and attacked every day.

This is exactly the right moment to think about Palestinian people! (Or the Armenian people who were killed and displaced by Azerbaijan during the recent Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.)

I am tired too, but I live in a privileged nation, where nobody is trying to actively harm me. I have a choice to watch the fun and the glitter and listen to silly songs or I can try to think of someone else who is getting attacked on the daily.

Mind you, you can still find a way to boycott the contest and listen to the songs, if you can't LIVE without them. Just don't add views or interactions to official channels who make money out of it, and don't use the hashtags. Talk to your buddies in DM and don't make it trend! How is that complicated??

And if this is still too much of a "performative activism", here's something else less passive that you can do, without even standing up from your sofa:

This google doc has a list of Palestinian people who need donations right now:

Donate hygiene kits:

Donate eSims:

And now you can block me if my post on your Eurovision tag is clouding your fun.

Please do not be antisemitic or islamophobic in the notes of this post and be respectful.

ITS GREAT LAKES AWARENESS DAY!!!!!

On this excellent day, be aware that this is the largest group of freshwater lakes in the world, covering over 95,000 square miles and reaching depths of over a thousand feet. They are beautiful freshwater seas.

Also when you die in these lakes, the very cold, oxygen-poor conditions at the bottom preserves you perfectly for all eternity. You will not rot and nothing will eat you. You will exist for as long as the Great Lakes do. Many shipwrecks still have the crew on board. Be Aware.

#lake ontario has a bunch of cracks in the bottom so you have to watch where you step #they also sunk a plane on purpose in ontario #erie is the one with the monster #and huron is just chilling
