#The face of politicians

[langernameohnebedeutung]

American nutjob politicians will say stuff like: "We need climate change because tornadoes will carry us to heaven during the rapture! The terrorists are stealing Christmas!" and British politicians are like... you'll just casually find out they were 5 times asbestos eating champion of the Lower Prickwhiggle Club, their university entry interview consisted of throwing endangered toads at poor people from a bus, and everyone at their hometown knows them as that rich family whose Estate is the only remaining continuous bubonic plague vector since 1348 bc they traditionally wear squirrels for hats.

#American politicians will be like: terrorists are stealing our jobs at the steel-factory! Jesus build a wall around abortion clinics! #you're just waiting to find out which order they're going to use the words in. #Meanwhile British politics is a slap in the face at every syllable #uk #politics #nonfandom

do you guys ever wonder how many “when i’m a politician...” promises damian has made and that they all somehow revolve around anya 

#future politician damian making laws because of his wife #they say if you want a law passed all you have to do is make anya forger sympathize with your cause #the person who holds the real power in the future desmond househould is anya actually #becky calls anya the shadow government #damian may be the one facing the public #but it's actually anya who holds the ropes and runs the show #sxf #sxf 78.5 #spy x family #spyxfamily #damianya #damian desmond #anya forger

"MY life has gotten marginally better or been unaffected under the current administration, so give the Democrats YOUR vote"

that's what y'all sound like. fuckin entitled. or do none of y'all actually believe in one person, one vote lol

just say that other people's problems, well-being, stability, and dignity is secondary to your fucking comfort under the status quo.

if things are "better under Biden" for you to such an extent that you feel entitled to other people's fucking votes, I got news for ya — you were probably fine under Trump too 🙃

#all i hear is #give me your vote #GIVE me your vote — and im not talking about from politicians #your ass is so excited to vote for a warmonger and a genocidal liar #which every us president has been to some degree bc that's the real face of america #ok then you and YOUR vote can vote for biden #bitching about leftists abstaining to vote blue this election is just y'all crying over the consequences #of demanding support from the demographics you clearly DO NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT #while loudly proclaiming and proving that you do not give a fuck about them lmao #mess #clown brigade #fuck biden #make a real argument please lmao #i have read and heard them all and they always boil down to this fucking bullshit #y'all pretend there's no nuance to ppl not voting this cycle but pretend theres nuance to #vote blue no matter who #lmao ok #i aint even old yet and im too old for this shit

My partner and I can't get legally married or else he'll lose his SSI. . . The USA is a hellscape and I kind of just need to shout that into the void for a minute.

#ugh #USA #ssi #disability #actually autistic #hell #aaaaaaah #eleanor shellstrop #this is the bad place #he teared up at the end of corpse bride this man is perfect #he steals my sweaters and it's so very gender #and I can't legally marry him #I want to take a sledgehammer to a politician's face but I'm not sure which one is most responsible #also their faces are pretty hard to dislodge from their asses #ugh again

[iclimbtreestofeelalive]

okay i'm gonna say something and you all have to give me a chance. ready?

we need to stop making fun of poor american southerners who distrust the government. it's real easy to call them all conspiracy theorists and dismiss them, but half the time, its built off of a genuine feeling of being abandoned by the infrastructure meant to keep them safe.

in appalachia, a lot of people lost their homes because of coal mining operations. a lot of people worked in those mines, and then when the mines stopped being profitable, they got tossed out with the bathwater. a lot of appalachia is poor, malnourished, and i don't blame them for not trusting rich politicians who dismiss them as stupid and lower class.

if yall actually listened to half the things poor southerners say, you'd realize that a Lot of common leftist complaints are virtually identical to the rural grandma who doesn't hold with electronic money and politicians. it stems from a genuine feeling of abandonment and ostracization by the people who run the country. functionally, someone living paycheck to paycheck in the city in a tiny apartment has infinitely more in common with someone from rural appalachia than a politician. high rent, high taxes, food insecurity, feeling lied to by those in power, a general sense of frustration. it just sounds fancier coming from a city mouth than one with shitty teeth and a southern accent.

tl;dr stop dismissing southern people as stupid. they're absolutely right not to wholeheartedly trust politicians, because they've been fucked over by them time and time again, and honestly, id rather talk to a southern person who openly distrusts their representatives than someone from the city who wholeheartedly believes that Frederick Jamestown OldMoney III genuinely cares what people think and can be convinced to change his ways.

#appalachia #gettin real tired of this #hot take: southerners were right when they said never trust a politician theyre the devil #its easy to laugh but jesus christ are they wrong?? #those in power rarely came to power through just means #there i rephrased it fancy will you listen now #jesus christ #some people genuinely were never taught the fancy words to make people pay attention so you have to pay attention anyway #please note that i didnt mention race because thats an intersection im not qualified to talk about and would very much like to hear about #but jesus christ. have you all considered that maybe. just maybe #southerners arent stupid. trump was fucked up and awful and a piece of shit #he won because he at least Appeared to be sympathetic #leftists so so rarely try to actually understand poor people they dont like and its gonna be what fucks this country over #edit: hey terfs reblogging this 👋 #fuck right off unless youre prepared to include trans people in this statement #poor trans southerners exist!! i know an awful lot of them!! #im trans and southern and if you touch my post you acknowledge that trans people are breathing thinking people #with our own rational thoughts and opinions and live complex lives and face similar issues

[shesgonnachangetheworld]

look if the general election ends up being biden v trump (which it very likely will), there are plenty of logical and pragmatic reasons i'd want biden to win, obviously. but the pettiest reason is that i just never want to hear about donald fucking trump ever again

#text only #politics//// #whine whine complain complain #i'm tired of his big head #i'm tired of all the ~~exposes~~ written about him by former allies who were *so sure* the leopards wouldn't eat their faces! #i'm tired of people memory-holing 2016-2020 #i'm tired of people acting like he's funny #i'm tired of the circus #it's nice when politicians are boring and competent because if i want entertainment i'll watch a movie or read a book!

[bolithesenate]

not to be a fanon girlie on main but I think we should consider taking away the 'human' label from Dooku

he comes from a planet that has at least one magic space dragon, was under Sith hegemony for a while and according to wookiepedia has enough of a chiss population that they count it distinctly.

honestly, the exact details I don't care about. Are most serennians part chiss? did the sith do some fucked-up genetic fuckery and alchemy on them that still has unexpected influences on their behavior/immune system?? Did they just evolve funny because that's the same planet that gave us the magic space dragon???

a combination of these?

something else entirely?

like. if we can decide that no, stewjoni are their own thing, then surely we can give the same treatment to Serenno

#is this mainly because I want Dooku to have been completely feral as a kid? maybe #let him bite some people #and then as he gets older he's got the perfect poker face 24/7 but INTERNALLY he's tearing throats from politicians left right and center #and he never tells anyone about it #because its deeply embarassing to him #the only ones who know are yoda (because he was a little too prey shaped) and thracia cho leem (who stitched yodas arm back together) #serenno #dooku #star wars #random boli thoughts #star wars headcanons #for the mines! #⛏️⛏️⛏️

Thinking about Aaron bushnell tonight. His words are running on a loop in my head. I will not be complicit in genocide. Him screaming for Palestine and freedom until he burns to death. Please god let someone hear him. For all the martyrs. For every person still under occupation, deprived of the dignity of a peaceful life they choose. We’re screaming in the streets for change every other week. And will this government, who only speaks in blood and guns and war, listen finally to fire? 30,000 Palestinian souls later, and we are still asking what it will take for these empires to crumble. That is too many lives lost in silence. May every single one reverberate for generations to come. I will not be complicit.

#from the river to the sea #free palestine #there’s too many martyrs #their names and faces are in my heart god #they should all still be here #these soldiers and politicians and zionists with such evil in their hearts #how can we imagine new futures in the midst of all this hatred and murder #dev speaks #aaron bushnell

[queen--kenobi]

Listen I love stoic Fox but imagine Fox, under the safety of his helmet, making Kermit faces when a senator says something stupid. He can control his expressions obviously, but when he’s wearing his helmet, he has the freedom to make those faces

#Persephone speaks #Commander Fox #Is this kinda cracky? yes #But it's also really funny to imagine a politician just saying something batshit insane and Fox just making a Kermit face

[kittykatninja321]

what is it with people (liberals usually for some reason??) and weird Freudian projections onto politicians? “We need this politician to be like a mother/father to the country” no we don’t

#This post is about Drew Barrymore on her show saying that the country needs Kamala Harris to be ‘Mamala’ #because of all the division hatred :( (she said this to Kamala’s face while Kamala looked like she was trying not to cackle). #Also do y’all remember that one viral twitter thread from the lib who projected their daddy issues onto Bernie Sanders #And that one lady who was like ‘If I Couldve Been Your Mother I Would’ve Fixed You’ @ Putin when the war in Ukraine started? #girl what is going on. Honestly parasocial relationships w/politicians disturb me more than parasocial relationships w/ celebrities #like not only are these people ghouls who are going to fuck you over they’re not even hot or talented? Like have some self respect

[hussyknee]

I love living in this fascist shithole.

#every day i dream of snapping Ranil's weasly neck with my bare hands #remind me why we stopped assassinating politicians #i'm so tired #both muslims and tamils are deeply invested in palestine #one of the few things that's united them since the aragalaya #so obviously it can't stand #that and ranil is trying to bring back the glory days of his uncle when he could slap people in the face with his dick #palestine has been really retraumatizing for tamils because it's horribly similar to what the state did to them #fuck the usa #islamphobia #racism #sri lanka politics #sri lanka protests #pro palestine protest #free palestine #knee of huss

people constantly forgetting that Shmi Skywalker exists will never stop making me legitimately angry.

she was so strong, and so brave, and managed to give Anakin as normal as a childhood as she could, but fans, Disney, etc. ignore her every Mother’s Day, and every time they talk about the Skywalker family.

SHE STARTED IT ALL and she’s thrown to the side like garbage.

#if she had lived and was freed with Ani she would have kept him safe from Palpatine #you really think this woman notice a child predator in her face if she saw one? #the Jedi were useless and the politicians were too naive #don’t get me started on the misinterpreted comic that has people thinking that Palpatine used to force to get her pregnant #heaven forbid she’s simply not telling the stranger interested in her son the truth of his conception #I know this is my trek account but I’m angry #shmi skywalker #Skywalker #Anakin Skywalker #Star Wars

[poppy5991]

You remind me of Present Mic. If only because I feel like he’d try anything once, and is canonically willing to throw down with people who are making stupid decisions. I feel like he’d be more than willing to yell at people breaking protocol too, and I think you do a decent amount of both while remaining fairly laidback overall lol.

😂😂😂😂

Ok this made me laugh really hard

Not much of yeller though. It’s just strongly worded disapproval.

#fun fact about me: leadership no longer lets me talk to politicians bc I got too blunt with them during COVID #apparently the blatant disapproval on my face when they made decisions was not welcomed lol #me and a colleague were told to ‘simmer down’ #but I’m very laid back with my staff bc they do a good job haha #and in my personal life

[minglana]

i just remembered that i think i passed by a certain politician the other day when i went out with friends🧍🏻‍♂️

#the thing about being aragonese is that the chances you see the aragonese president on the street are never 0 #ive seen him twice already. once when he was mayor of zgz and another time when i was just randomly walking in uesca #both times i had evil thoughts come to my head just from seeing him #this time i saw a different politician. almost laughed in his face bc of how ridiculous his political party is turning out to be #these past yrs. they had a rly ridiculous scandal and honestly. ljkfdsljkfsl #z xarre

ah genderkoolaid (the op of the queer post) is one of those transmisogynistic bloggers that believes in “transandrophobia” :/ his pinned is all about it

oh anon this is not a can of worms I’m equipped to speak on in depth due to not publishing anything about my agab or gender identity on this blog.

#I will however say that intentionally putting trans people against each other to see which trans identity is most oppressed #is not productive #and a lot of baby queers seem to like to make this into a pissing contest and it shouldn’t be. #we’re all T slurs in the eyes of the cishet #yes trans femmes and trans mascs face different issues #but it’s honestly extremely online behavior to argue with other queers over who has it worst #it just reminds me of the aphobic nonsense that was big in what 2018 or so? #infighting is such a weird focus to have in a decade that’s shaping up to be built on stripping our basic human rights again #when the cishets are using words like ‘exterminate’ and ‘mutants’ to describe trans people #why are you putting trans men and women against each other #what are you doing #I don’t care who is the most oppressed when there are politicians trying to give us all the death penalty
