"nooooo don't dissolve the violently racist settler colonial stste of Israel, because the jews would get displaced, lose their homeland and that's bad"

Are there bad ways to dissolve it that would actually cause displacement? Sure but that's not the point of doing it. Israelis (then former Israelis) can stay there and don't need to be violently expulsed, but the state of Israel cannot not do its current politics. Even if they could not do it, why not do them in a Palestinian state instead? Where's the harm?

Look I know Centrists and Right Wingers that point to Africa and talk about how white settlers got to keep living there, just without their previous colonial privileges, why do I see stuff like the above from leftist complaining about leftists being antisemitic?

I have talked about leftist antisemitism and how it hides before as well, it's an important topic, but this ain't it.

Furthermore upon checking, the people that cry antisemitism about the call from leftists to dissolve the SETTLER COLONIAL STATE OF ISRAEL are always Israelis and Zionists with very clear agendas

#if you feel spoken to by this because you reblogged something today #that's on purpose #check the accounts you reblogged from with a critical eye #that means being more diligent than just seeing if they call themselves Zionist in their bio. see what other things they reblog/post #dog whistles aren't always just people being antisemitic. Zionists can also use dog whistles. learn to recognize them #apart from tte fact that Zionists themselves are hilariously antisemitic but that's a topic I won't dive into right now #edit: fixed some typos

Making a regency gown: Finished

Here, have some dogshit-quality photos of the finished dress because my phone is a worthless overpriced potato masquerading as a camera

I swear it looks better in person.

I'm actually pretty pleased with the final gown even though I used 100% the wrong fabric and the skirt could use a whole entire panel more width. The floral embroidery on the hem (4th pic) came pre-embroidered with the fabric, but the dots and vines were hand-embroidered by me.

I finished the embroidery 3 weeks ago but didn't post pics because I was still holding out hope that aforementioned dogshit camera would cooperate. And well, I finally said fuck it, I'm tired of trying to get decent photos while standing on a chair in front of my bathroom mirror while 19/20 of the pics I try to take come out blurry. These 4 photos are just the least terrible of the bunch 🤬

Look. I agree, that announcement was pretty awful. But guess what? The team has stuck together for way worse, they're ride or die. And that includes you. Robot or not, you're still friends, and I know they'd do anything for you

I DON'T KNOW. I'M NOT AS WELL KNOWN AS, SAY, [Engineer gayming]. YOU THINK THEY'LL EVEN RECOGNIZE ME?

I swear I’m not trying to start shit but the way a lot of people draw/write/mod Johnny Silverhand to look at act nothing like he is in canon is so funny to me. Like are you sure you like this character? Or do you just like Keanu Reeves?

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

I am BEGGING younger drivers. drive carefully. give yourself room. for fuck's sake use your turn signals and don't fucking weave thru traffic. this is not a video game, this is real life and if you get into an accident, you could get killed or kill someone else VERY easily

#my poasts #for tagging purposes #driving carefully won't save you from ever getting into an accident #but it WILL reduce your chances

[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled "immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]

a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”

#dinosaur #evolution #comic #prehistoric #animal #wildlife #paleontology #biology #poetry #comics #original #my art #archaeopteryx has no direct living descendants i know #but i wanted something aerial and the dinosaur to bird connection is classic and well known anyway #also the chicken over any other bird is very on purpose #its the mix of truth and comedy and genuineness and the fantastic in the mundane #its me asking you to see something so wonderful in something taken so un-seriously #and to love it both ways #also the jurassic park thing #where someone saw the reconstructed gait of a dino #and said. hey hang on. i know that walk. #and pulled up footage of a chicken walking #which jumpstarted the entire study into the link between dinosaurs and birds #in the end take whatever you want from it i just thought id provide some insight #i always like it when other artists do #the point is that i enjoy when people laugh at the end and when they dont #and i like it when they cry. i like it best when they both laugh and cry. eeaao intent #anyway mourn your losses but to live is to change #also hi guys i finally figured out tipping after 5 months so no more annoying ko-fi link

Disgust has absolutely no ethical weight. If you are basing your ethical positions on the emotion of disgust you should stop, it is entirely unjustified and leads to a huge amount of harm.
