I'm glad i heard Gay Witch Hunt before Casino Night because

In the first, the straight-allo-cisness really pissed me off.

The second made me cry (in a cool way)

March 21 - Truman Signs Loyalty Order On this day in labor history, the year was 1947.

That was the day President Harry S. Truman signed Executive Order 9835.

It is commonly referred to as the ‘loyalty order.’

It required the screening of millions of federal civil servants and applicants.

9835 is considered one of the key preconditions for the rise of the McCarthyite Red Scare.

It established the criteria for investigation, review and dismissal.

These included a Loyalty Review Board, a master index of those investigated and definitions determining alleged disloyalty.

Disloyalty could mean sedition, espionage, or advocating revolution.

It could also mean membership or sympathetic association with movements considered totalitarian, fascist, communist or subversive.

Soon, the Attorney General’s List of Subversive Organizations was published.

It amounted to a black list.

In their book, The Fifties, Douglas Miller and Marion Nowack comment: “Between the launching of his security program in March 1947 and December 1952, some 6.6 million persons were investigated. Not a single case of espionage was uncovered, though about 500 persons were dismissed in dubious cases of ‘questionable loyalty.’ All of this was conducted with secret evidence, secret and often paid informers, and neither judge nor jury. Despite the failure to find subversion, the broad scope of the official Red hunt gave popular credence to the notion that the government was riddled with spies.”

President Dwight Eisenhower would revoke 9835 with his Executive Order 10450.

But this order dismantled the Loyalty Boards by transferring power to federal agencies. 

It also expanded investigations to include those engaged in “immoral” or “disgraceful” behavior.

This included what it considered sexual deviance and led to the witch hunting of and discrimination against gays and lesbians in the civil service.

Can people ever be like. Normal about shipping for once?

Are we not just having fun with stories and story potential anymore? Making the blorbos kiss and have drama for fun?

Why are so many people treating it like existing in a constant state of war with strangers whose preferences and opinions just happen to differ from ours is part of the package when there's honestly no fucking need for any of it

#Both haters and shippers frustrate me in basically any fandom I touch these days #The people who get all uppity about canonicity in both directions #The crosstagging of hate into the main ship tags and imposing with headcanons and preferences in other ships' spaces #The harassment and gatekeeping and pettiness of it all #The elitism of gay ships and how any and every inclination of a het ship gets the sibling or mlm + wlw besties trestment #And how people who do ship het ships anyways get treated either with pity and “come over to the good side and like my gay ship with me” #Or outright harassment for made up nonsense reasons #The way a lot of gay ships get sanitized to shit also saddens me bc it removes so much complexity and appeal for me #The misogyny and the racism and the wokescold nonsense that simmers beneath so many ship-heavy fandoms #The way “ugh just let characters remain friends” is always applied with so much selectiveness and petty bias #Why can't people just tag their shit right so that nobody's stepping on anyone's toes #The pettiness and call out posting and witch hunting and cross-tagging just to start beef... I hate it. #Y'all need to chill tf out #chubs rambles #It's not that deep

“billy’s homophobic” has to be one of the most unserious takes

#fandom wank #close second is ‘he would join jason’s witch hunt’ #also #‘billy would call [insert cishet character] a homophobic slur’ #LIKE WDYM #when i say there’s this weird jealousy that he was canonically called a slur and their favs weren’t #anyone else get that vibe #billy’s homophobic because he hates himself and he’s gay i guess #makes sense i suppose #always the people who love nancy and steve too like baby i’m gonna need you to shut the fuck up just a little bit #getting too loud with our wrong opinions now #the insinuation that he’s the only homophobic person too like #do you understand the location and the time period this piece of media is set in #billy had ample opportunity on screen to be homophobic and yet #and yet.. #there’s just nothing to support the ‘he’s homophobic’ claims #[bangs gavel] court is adjourned

my current fukuzawa design for the bsd x witch hat atelier au i'm working on!!

fukuzawa has an atelier, with rampo as his watchful eye. there he (and, on the rare occasion, rampo,) teach dazai, yosano, kunikida, atsushi, kenji, kyouka, junichiro and naomi magic.

dazai, yosano and kyouka where all originally students from mori's atelier, before they changed to fukuzawa's, with kyouka being the newest. as such fukuzawa isn't too sure about mori, after all he's had not one, but three kids transfer from his atelier, and five of his students and one of his watchful eyes, the flags and oda, mysteriously died, upon other things... (possible association with the brimmed hats)

fukuzawa also treats all his students and rampo, like they're his children.

#i actually love this #this is making me so happy to create #i also have more ideas for mori's atelier #i don't know what to do for the guild though... #but i do for the decay of angels and the hunting dogs!! #but i have so many ideas for this so if you'd like to know more just ask!! #i'm just getting started after all #bungo stray dogs #bungou gay dogs #bungou stray dogs #bsd anime #fukuzawa yukichi #bsd yukichi fukuzawa #bungou stray dogs fukuzawa #bsd mori #mori ougai #witch hat atelier #witch hat atelier qifrey #wha qifrey #wha #tongari boushi no atelier #tbna #wha fanart #tbna fanart #wha coco

Hey, if Belos thinks magic is evil, and all magic comes from the Titan, and witches and demons worship the Titan as their god, then, logically, Belos would believe that the Titan is the Literal Christian Devil.

This means nothing I just think it's funny

Also that makes King the Antichrist

#toh #the owl house #oh belos you puritan fucker #philip looking at the Isles- 'it's the devil. you know? from Bible?' #i wonder if he ever got pissed off at living on Satan's corpse #i just like to imagine philip wittebane getting irrationally angry about random shit #as long as I'm talking about my headcanons allow me to indulge a really stupid one in the tags here #christian colonists spread homophobia to every culture they can get their grubby little hands on #but despite this there is no homophobia on the boiling isles even though we know philip has a stranglehold on their history and culture #maybe he was too concerned about the witchcraft thing and just didn't even give a shit about 'evil' people also being gay #but I'd like to believe that philip is a gay homophobe and all this witch hunting shit is him compensating for something #if you read this stupid shit i love u #my rambles

I know everyone's mostly just making fun of the fact that Belos hasn't seen earth in like 400+ years, but,, what if it's somehow going to be canon?

I mean, we saw with the whole Grimwalker thing that one of his character traits is that he will never really accept being wrong. Every single time a golden guard decided that what Belos was doing is wrong, he killed them and tried again, most likely in hopes of this one staying loyal to him, because he can't possibly be the one in the wrong, right?

But at the same time, his main motivation is "saving the humanity from evil." And, well, the main issue with this is that he only thinks of the outdated humanity from 1600s. He probably didn't think that it would change because to him, humanity was good as it was. In his mind, it wouldn't need to change or improve over the years.

And since the DoU includes the portal, there's a good chance he'e going to see the human realm as it is now-- and if he does, he's definitely gonna be shocked that humanity moved on when he couldn't.

Sometimes I forget that not everyone knows how bonkers Idaho politics are. It's still very much the Wild West out here, except even the Wild West had safer gun laws.

#i dont think you could take guns into bars back then but literally anyone could be conceal carrying legally at pretty much any time now #our lieutenant governor basically tried to invade mexico when the governor went on a business trip #and shes a militia member who swore in other militia members into the militia on the capitol steps #they're trying to annex parts of oregon and washington #the bird sanctuary militia takeover guy is running for governor #im considering loudly protesting outside his mcmansion home about it because thats a protected right #but i have to face proud boys on horseback if i ever want to protest a leftist cause #we had a gay witch hunt that shares a name with a house flipping tv show

The thing about so many people being mad at Izzy's death is that they have no fucking media literacy.

Did it make you sad? Does it feel unfair?

YEAH! THAT'S THE FUCKING POINT!

It is sad. It's unfair, even.

But what it's NOT is bad writing or "bury your gays" or cruel to the viewers.

You dumb shits.

"But Izzy is disabled!" So are Lucius and Ed.

"But Izzy was suicidal!" So was Ed.

"But Izzy was an elder queer who came out later in life!" (Debatable but) So was Stede.

"But Izzy was abused!" So was literally everyone.

Y'all just don't want death to happen to your favorite characters. Which is FINE and a very NORMAL response but you're doing way too fucking much.

It's like when Noah died in The Raven King and people were sending the author abuse about it. Like SOMETIMES SAD THINGS HAPPEN! If everyone got off scot free and no one suffered consequences you'd get the end of Breaking Dawn. Which NO ONE can argue was 'good writing'.

I don't know man, it's like you're allowed to be sad your fave died but this witch hunt, this crusade of virtue signaling trying to assign your bad feelings to some Great Bigoted Crime of Problematacy is just fucking ponderous

you're natalie scatorccio. you take some acid the night before your team leaves for nationals. next day your plane goes down somewhere in the canadian wilderness. one of your coaches dies the other loses a leg btw the girl you hallucinated at the party last night destroyed the black box and you're stuck here for 18 months now. you start a fling with the guy they send you out hunting with but the homecoming queen wants to lose her virginity before she dies so she throws you under the bus and takes your man in a gay way, but you don't even really have time to deal with that because your other teammates are trying to have a murder orgy and sacrifice him at the alter of the wilderness gods. you save his ass and then spend the next two months hiking in below zero temperatures on a major caloric deficit trying to locate your man's missing brother who is definitely probably dead and you're definitely probably going to die if you keep looking so you fake his death and that goes pretty bad because the resident witch says she can still sense his aura and it turns out against all odds the teenage brother did survive two months in the wilderness alone, but happy endings right? wrong. your boyfriend can't get it up unless he's thinking about backwoods jesus and you're all starving to death. group decides short straw dies for the good of the group and who draws it but you? the wilderness wills the hunter bring food to the table. run. now the boy you killed/saved/killed says you can trust me I know a place and the earth opens up and swallows him and you reach for him because he asks you to and because in another life that's the kind of person you are. but here you're the hunter and you know how to love the thing in your scope but still pull the trigger if it puts meat on the table, especially if it means the meat isn't your own. you have nine months left. there's nowhere to run.

Joyce staying at the cabin with Hopper and El to keep them safe bc no one in Hawkins knows they’re alive. Will, Jonathan and Argyle staying at the Wheeler's bc they have more room and presumably aren't in danger like the others.

OH WAIT there's a witch hunt for the Hellfire club, which means all the boys are in danger from the townspeople. OH WAIT the boy who came back to life has returned from the West, the same boy whose assumed death jumpstarted this small town's curse in the first place! The same boy who apparently everyone and their fathers knew was gay...

THE END IS NEAR! THE GAYS ARE RESPONSIBLE!

+ Time jump early somewhere in between.

Now picture how that would look in an 8 episode story format, leading up to a final battle lasting about 2+ hrs, and that's loosely how s5 is gonna go down.

#byler #enter satanic panic #enter religious imagery #enter small town blaming the apocalypse on two boys falling in love #NO but deadass... #I could see a gradual realization in 5x01 #with them making a plan but then realizing it wont work bc townspeople are hunting down members of hellfire #the whistleblower for the hellfire club in the eyes of the town was jason #and now jason has been found dead #and before he died he told the townspeople that members of hellfire club were protecting eddie... #jason basically signed all of hellfire clubs death certificates #now that citizens are seeing real life impacts as a result of what jason said was caused by these kids playing dnd... #that they're now working for the devil himself #shit is going to get bleak af... #it could get so bleak that something horrible happens instigating a time jump early on #the duffers have said s5 is pretty quick in motion with continuing the events directly after vol 2 #but then they imply that there is a shift after those first two eps... #so i think it's likely we're getting at time jump in time for 5x03 #putting the rest of the season post time jump and preparing for the ultimate final battle #that is my guesstimation at this time
