Propaganda under the cut.

Tabitha Scarlet:

owns a mine, has banned her ex girlfriend from said mine, has a lot of Mom Trauma that has resulted in her wanting to be vulnerable while simultaneously believing she cannot afford to be. also some paths in the game lead to her killing someone and she's not as upset about it as she probably should be

She literally runs one of the largest coal mines in the area, coal baroness, strikebreaker (does not want her employees to unionize), if you build up a close enough relationship with her you can find out she's not really a horrible person and she's just dealing with the weight of hundreds of years of obligations on her shoulders but it still doesn't excuse the fact that some of her inspirations include Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Ford

Morte Asherah

I will level with you I have not finished this game (i am close to the end though). however. I love her dearly and I want you to know her because so few people do. that said oh she's going to lose immediately. the fanbase is 3 people wide. but look. look. she's fantastic. morte is a 16 year old anarchist who we learn early on in the game is absolutely Adamant on bringing on armageddon and destroying the entire world. she is also the deuteragonist of the game. we are not actually avoiding killing the world here. she is also: the most down with murder good guy I have ever seen in an rpg who isn't at all framed as Evil at first or even an antihero. so far she has not taken a Single alternate route to solve a problem when it could be solved by killing somebody. where any other jrpg would have a stealth mission go down to try and get these papers from a lord without anybody noticing, she just says "fuck it let's just kill him and take the papers off his corpse". she literally just kills all her problems. jesus h christ. she has a bounty on her head from the very start of the game and multiple fun monikers like Lady Death and The Scarlet Plague. my personal favorite is beastslayer for the simple fact that in this game the entire upper class is composed of furries. she is So Much. she just Is a guillotine. also as a bonus (maybe not a bonus?) she's like. from an outside perspective kind of generic? like until she opens her bloodthirsty little mouth if you see her you'd assume she's just Jrpg Girl. she looks like it the few cgi cutscenes in the game show her like she's a Jrpg Girl. she's pink and ruffly and Loves Murdering Authority Figures and is very fun and upbeat about it all. her magic attack in the game is a molotov cocktail. she's fantastic.

Alberta's energy regulator ruled Thursday that it won't reconsider approvals for Suncor to expand an oilsands mine into a wetland once considered for environmental protection. The decision opens the door for expansion of the company's Fort Hills mine that has been before the regulators for more than two decades. It unlocks an estimated billion barrels of bitumen. "This is part of Fort Hills moving forward," said Suncor spokesman Leithan Slade. But scientists say it's also likely to doom a unique patterned fen — a peat-producing wetland featuring long strings of trees and shrubs separated by narrow pools that is host to 20 rare or endangered plant species and more than 200 species of migratory birds, including endangered whooping cranes.

hi so I'm trying to not send in a rec until I've finished the game the girl here is from, but in case I don't finish it I just wanna like. make you Aware of morte asherah from sands of destruction. this isn't a submission if i finish the game youll be Getting a submission but I think you really need to behold her. she's fantastic she's a 16 year old anarchist who has literally never met a problem she could not murder and the best part is she is a good guy. her ultimate goal is to kill the entire world. and she's a good guy. she is very pink and very ruffly and her damaging magic attack is a molotov cocktail. she's delightful. she is the most down with murder good guy I have seen in my life. if any of the Three sod fans in 2023 see this and want to submit her with their expanded knowledge please do so but I worry I'd be doing an injustice if I submit her without full understanding of Just What Her Problem Is

HELL FUCKING YEAH

The more time goes on, the more I think we (= westerners, especially white westerners) are just so fucking bad at guilt. I feel like guilt is among the most pernicious and dangerous emotions out there --not because guilt is literally deadly in isolation, it is an excruciating emotion but it will not kill you in itself, but because we have been trained to associate guilt with worthlessness (I partially blame christian values, the idea of impurity and sin --not to downplay, of course, the danger of a community judging you or being expelled from that community on the basis of being considered a danger to its other members due to the thing you've done that has been generating this guilt), and so we must, absolutely must, protect ourselves from simply feeling that guilt and processing its cold indifference washing over us, and we must do so through any means necessary. This can involve defensiveness, denial or reject of that guilt altogether so we are mentally protected from having to reevaluate ourselves and our place in the world, or can involve wallowing in and using it to self-harm --focusing on the pain and on self-hate rather than on what the guilt is telling us about ourselves and our heritage; blinding ourselves to it still in a twisted way.

I think it's also complicated to know how to manage guilt in a world where we're generally (as a whole) deeply powerless. It feels unfair to be called out about not doing enough when you know that pulling even mediocre heroics on your own will most definitively do almost nothing, hurt you, and be buried in a way that might be extremely unhelpul --not to mention, that it would actually hurt you in a very real and final way and lead to entirely thankless results, even if it was the morally correct thing to do. I do not want to pretend that it's not, very often, the results that awaits even serious and well-practiced activism --or even mild activism, major shoutout to everybody who got maimed or arrested or even killed on zero basis simply because they happened to be at or even near a protest, when they were not brutally attacked for no reason even outside of activism because an officer was racist or sexist or queerphobic or simply bored that day. There are genuinely good reasons to be scared.

So we feel guilt because of this fear, because of our isolation from any serious movement and the fact that we privilege our comfort over letting action taking over whatever else we have going on, and because fear and comfort knowingly keep us into inaction --or action that doesn't feel like enough, or that we feel doesn't achieve much of anything (which I think is never true: even giving someone a glimpse of hope for a second because we made an effort towards them is always always worth it in my opinion, it's not nothing and it's not a cop-out --of course it's not enough and we collectively need to find ways to do more, but it's not nothing and it should never discourage people from taking action --but I digress). But I think we start making a mistake when we point at this very real powerlessness as a shield from the guilt. Both can coexist. Both have to coexist. It isn't fair that some people are being forced to be courageous when we can afford to remain cowards. It is not even a moral judgement that condemn our souls forever, weakness is human and lack of individual reach against an overwhelmingly powerful and removed system even more so; it is a simple fact that we *have* to acknowledge if we want to take a clear look at the actual situation instead of camouflaging it behind self-justifying walls to give ourselves temporarily relief from that awful feeling. And I'm not saying it's not a constant effort, to keep those instincts of self-preservation at bay, or that some people don't have really good reasons that they cannot act more than through social media or miniscule donations or by talking about it around them, or being powerless to even do that without putting themselves into real and concrete danger --or that letting guilt in will be pleasant or even healing. It won't be. But it's also not the point.

Yeah, I get that it's hard to truly reckon with the fact that almost everything that made us (= westerners, especially white ones) is soaked with blood, imperialism, white supremacy, sexism, queerphobia, and a whole sweve of truly rancid ideologies that we cannot afford to passively accept as our lot. We were not given a choice in that legacy, and we don't have a ton of leverage over reorienting our haunted civilizations into something that isn't a horrible nightmare; but it is a fight that is happening right the fuck now.

I genuinely think guilt is a feeling we are not taught to handle in a healthy way; and because we have essentialist, pseudo-religious and punitive justice concepts terminally untangled with that feeling, guilt governs our politics and our private lives in the most rabid and unchecked way imaginable. But guilt will not kill us, unless we allow it to, and it will help literally nobody if it does. Guilt isn't evil in its soul-crushing pain as much as it is informative. Guilt is unbearable, unfliching clarity. But fever boils us alive because there is an infection that needs to be destroyed.

#thoughts #personal #not zelda #palestine #free palestine #guilt #cw self harm #(not graphic and really in passing) #sorry it's quite different than usual and it's a lot and I don't know if I'll agree with everything in five seconds #but I feel like we don't talk enough about the impact of guilt on our lives and psyches (and politics) #I am not great at guilt either (tho tbh I don't know many people who are) #but I'm trying to get better at simply... shutting up and Feeling It #I'm sure there's a way to face guilt that isn't destructive or self-pitying or generally useless #but I am.... I am so pessimistic about the future #not in a: let's all give up and cry but in a: we must fucking brace ourselves and look after one another #and put our foot in the sand right now because everything is unnacceptable and we need to acknowledge it much harder #if we let it fester it will only get uglier and uglier #and it doesn't mean we won't win or that hope isn't an absolutely essential component to it all #I am ultimately optimistic that there is an After to capitalism and imperialism and that brand of self-centered preservation and brutality #and this general oozing of toxic and unprocessed guilt #But #let's say that we'll all have to lead our own fights against it at some point #and I think that time should be right now #tl;dr imo there's no hope for justice and genuine resistance without facing guilt and resisting the urge to deny or fret against its ache #which doesn't have to equate with allowing guilt to rule us and use it as a tool of self-torment #anywayyyyy #saw a LOT of very weird reactions to the gaza genocide in my personal circles #some that really disappointed me even though they came from people I know to be better than this #so #yeah

@reddawnmultimuse continued from here

Deidara had noticed Sasori beforehand, though he didn't realize it. Mistaking him for a puppet that his partner had accidentally left behind- much to his distaste. The voice in his ear makes him scream, blue eyes just barely catching strands of red. Of fuck him. Fuck him, the puppets alive. Fuck no. A hand quickly grabs the nearest item, some kind of bottle, and whirls around with it raised, ready to attack. Only then does the familiar voice slowly process... and the blonde is left blinking like an idoit, looking bewildered. "Sasori-no-danna?" He stutters out, blue eyes flying over him frantically. He's... young-looking. Not a grey hair in sight, and... handsome? Deidara feels his cheeks heat up and curses himself internally. His danna is hot. He hates to admit it, but it's the truth. "I..." He chokes out, quickly setting the glass down and trying to create some space between them, embarrassed to be so caught off guard like this. "You... you're... hair's fluffy..." Really? That's what had to come out? Kami kill him now...
