#ffxiv #vierapril #vierapril24 #oc: eyrie kisne #i should have a gpose tag #me grabbing the microphone this line of alphinaud's lives rent free in my head #do you ever think about how he treats them like a tool? like they are a puzzle piece in a game? #do you think about how his idealism was taken advantage of but also that alphinaud was already kinda an asshole? #not saying that he is evil or anything of that nature #but an asshole of a conceited young man who sees politics as a game he has won thus far #without the reprocussions of what it means that these are people with lives and families? #I THINK ABOUT IT A LOT #how much this one piece of dialogue shapes so much of his and WoLs relationship #anyway the dead bodies are livia + wilred + minfilia for reasons im still kinda rotating #something of livia representing the death of the empire as its great evil #but wilred and minfilia as innocents #wilred as the innocent who wanted the best for his people #and minfilia trapped as a victim to her dream of a greater tomorrow and the loss of humanity #anyway ARR right?

Rafah has been and continues to be bombed and terrorized. Rafah was supposed to be a 'safe zone.' HALF of Gaza is in Rafah (1.2 million people). The targeting, invasion, and brutality happening in Rafah is intentional. The IOF are war criminals -they're continuing to slaughter and genocide Palestinian people who haven't had anywhere to go. This has been going on for 9 months. 9 MONTHS. The occupation must end and Palestine must be free.

PSA: If you don’t support abortion, but don’t believe the government should mandate vaccines, you don’t care about being “pro-life,” you care about being pro-rapist and pro-white. Government control of bodily autonomy does not just disappear when it applies to things you don’t want.

#oh right they think it does #they think they’re exempt #listen to dead men don’t rape by delilah bon i am BEGGING YOU #I don’t even know how to tag this #pro life #pro life losers? makes sense #we’re pro-choice here and will always will be #but yeah if you believe the government should mandate other peoples bodies #then you should actually fucking believe that #instead of supporting rapists and wanted non-white poor ppl dead #<3 #pro choice #social issues #? #pro life die #please #abortion #bodily autonomy #political #?? #who knows #if you aren’t pro choice fuck off

am yisrael fucking chai.

#at this point im just gonna be real: if you see what happened yesterday as anything but a tragedy #you are fucking larping as a ‘freedom fighter’ from the safety of your home without using the brain god gave you #hamas took control of palestine via COUP they have not had a democratic election since then. #hamas is liberating jack shit. they are ALSO OPPRESSING PALESTINIANS. palastinian civillians are fucking meat shields to them use your head #the bodies of israeli women are being paraded around naked with their goddamn heads blown off right now #israeli and palestinian civilians are being killed by hamas right now. if you see this as liberation and not a tragedy or injustice #i do not know what to tell you other than to stop using civillian deaths to justify your political beliefs #and i say this as an anarchist #it’s easy to call this liberation on tumblr.com when your home isnt being used to store weapons or as a launching pad for rockets #or when your neighbors arent currently hostages or your daughters dead naked body isnt being paraded in the streets #i will not apologize for being more concerned about palestine’s civilians than the safety of the hamas. #i will not apologize for being worried when there is a grand total of ONE jewish state on earth and people are chanting to kill all israelis #i care about jews. i care about palestinians. i care about the civilians who are living in fear. #if you think that is controversial feel free to block me ✌️ #rosie speaks

okay so I loved Witch King but. I gotta know. Why are people calling Kai "the witch king"? He's not a king. He's not a witch.

I assume this is Backstory Stuff that happens in the very long & significant gap between where the flashback sequences stop and the present day starts but 👀

#if i missed something and this was super obvious do tell #my current theories are 'most people don't understand what witches are' #'witch king' as in 'the king's witch' #'witch king' as in the guy who's in charge of witches? #people implying that he suborned/controlled Bashasa? #or maybe he took Bashasa's dead body at some point I guess we don't know he *didn't* do that #but I don't think it's likely they would both have been aware of the obvious political repercussions #witch king #meta #mine

legitimately what the fuck was that

#ig im dissapointed lmao #sorry most of it i just kind of expected (bram regaining his body and stopping the vampires. fyodor dying bc there isnt really anything els #you can do with him. dazai and chuuya both alive) #mostly i wish aya awakened an ability give her oneee also i want to see how they manifest #idk we'll see soon where this goes ig but 1. i really wish fukuzawa had just died alongside fukuchi and 2. that there would be some calmer #chapters more focused on political repercussions rather than more fighting but the 2 hours later thing isnt really pointing to that huh #ill have to reread this arc at some point bc fukuchis and fyodors plan got so convoluted i was barely following it #and also 1. what abt sigma do they just. leave her there #i mean surely not bc she has info on fyodor but dazai really just did not care #and 2. yeah i wish fukuzawa died but now that he didnt. does he???? just keep the one order #and wheres that fucking page #and whats exactly on it #bc i dont think they can just rewrite anything 1. they dont know how much space is on it and theyll need a lot to fix this mess #2. god knows if they even can do anything or if theres some condition written in already thatd stop them #also asagiri for the love of god get into anticapitalism bc you cant just go into criticing states and military without talking about it #and i still need the hunting dogs dead even if i know its likely not going to happen #but how are you going to go all “absolute power corrupts” and “omg fukuci dont create a military state” and then just leave the super cops #running around and getting redeemed bc “they mean well” yeah they do but it doesnt matter #they are complicit in the state violence THEY ARE state violence #asagiri pls i can show you theory you havent even dreamed of #txt.

Tonight I m thinking about Polybe, who was a greek soldier taken hostage by Rome, and who after his liberation fell so thoroughly in love with it that he devoted his life to writing its praise, compiling its history and politics.

He saw Rome as the looming giant of war, got swallowed in its maw, and still fell for the beast.

And the beauty of it all is that all of his love letters, wrapped in clever words and cleverer ideas, changed it forever, and so the beast got changed by the man it devoured.

The city swallowed his culture whole, and so he brought his home to the city, not through war as Rome did, but throught love and written words.

The beautiful irony of the eternal city bringing the greeks to their knees only in the end to be marked forever by the awe one soldier held.

And how tragic and yet beautiful for him to still love it after wearing its chains and tasting the iron of its blades.

And what more fitting fate for his words to be some of the first to give us today a clear image of some of Rome's aspects.

Rome, through his hand, is taught to us with the love of a man who had all the reasons to hate it.

Limp Wrist - Want Us Dead

Two men were hung in the Middle East just for being gay. Some Texas punks got killed cause someone thought that they were strange. Trannies are beat and murdered by some sick fucks full of hate.

They want us dead.

#limp wrist #want us dead #the political climate in the US has me scared for real #last days of weimar vibes #living inside a trans body #transgender #oh and I’m not mad at Martin for using the t-slur #he’s family I’m cool with it

My toxic trait is looking at cringe comps and having mixed reactions but omfg that one “body empty” video where the person slumps over like a cORPSE- like alters POSSESS the body- I’m rolling I’m giggling, like it’s so rare that I’ll fucking straight up physically pass out switching, even back when our barrier were miles high

My bsf said we look like we’re about to SNAP when we switch, like we’re sitting there seething or something lmao but still it’s so funny to think about alters/parts as ghosts possessing a body like omg get your own

#I’m not fakeclaiming but that vid was so obviously staged and overdramatic but it had me cackling #‘’body empty’’ ajishJSJSNSKISN #that line killed me dead #like we’ve had harsh switches and they’re pretty scares now in days but nsjsjsbsnlmao #and bsf’s words were ‘’you just look like you’re at a restaurant behind a screaming child and you’re trying so hard to be polite’’ #we did learn that the blinking thing is v v common though #like we even intentially do it because it feels like it speeds things up #like how frogs eat lmao #// #🍄

[ionlylikemycat]

ok but is it a bad idea or a really bad idea to poke at the lump in my thigh with an exacto knife bc if it’s only bad maybe i should do it actually

#lemon speaks #tw body horror #i don’t think this applies but i’m being polite #i am so bad at this kind of thing #this is why i always scar bc i Cannot leave things alone #this is why my toe hurts!! #bc i was picking at it #it’s bad #i have peeled sections of my foot skin off with a knife before #it was dead #like the dead skin around your heel #i cannot be trusted with sharp things man

[snekdood]

ive watched the first half hour of the santa evita series now. its really well done on a technical level, im especially happy with the costume and makeup. the music is sort of horrid and it brings down the gravest moments so far.

what sticks out the most to me is how deeply unsettling this is. obviously its par for the course but. some shots of oreiros body as eva look a lot like stan brakhages the act of seeing with ones own eyes, this way of treating the dead body as it is -an object, not a person anymore. at the same time, the way she is framed, lying still, with other men standing above her, or the way julio kept her lock of hair and the journalist strokes it -its so uncomfortable in a very specific, creepy way. of course there can be no neutrality in the corpse of a woman like evita, but there is still this lingering feeling of something being fundamentally invasive -not necessarily the embalming, i think, as much as the weight of her fame and reputation as the body is taken away and bargained with. her mother probably did have a point, beyond the religious, with cursing the doctor.

#i think a lot about the politics of dead bodies about funeral rites about respects and intrusions #theres something almost kitsch in the idea of embalming the body of an icon to always have it present for the crowd. catholic kitsch maybe #and theres a whole conversation to be had on the last wishes of a person and where their own ownership of their bodies ends #and it makes me think of the upcoming marilyn monroe movie and how there will be a rape scene and #its all so ghastly. how people will assume what the dead want. or worse what they think is better for them #anyway
