every single person that never understood the arts loves to say things like “why are there politics in my arts now??”

remember when it was "keep politics out of video games"?

unlikely

I just hope anyone who voted for this dumbest timeline finally gets it. The people who stayed home or didn't send in a ballot, same thing. Policy is shaped by politics if you don't do politics then they're gonna eventually do you. This is not a functional 1st world Government. It's Temu USA.

This White House starting to look pretty leaky

pretty incredible timeline we’re in that the president of the united states called tiger woods from air force one to apologize for leaking that he wouldn’t play in the masters while tiger was being arrested for being zooted on pills and flipping his car

It's absolutely infuriating hearing mainstream media rationalizing the military actions that are occurring. State that it is stupid and it is run by inept inexperienced and macho minded buffoons. This is not a video game, and Hegseth doesn't realize that.

mormons face cuz they creep her out
both my parents snicker about lutherans and no one trusts that one religious group that has their windows blacked out and doors locked at all times.
we have a literal buddhist group and no one mentions them 😭
anyway war on catholics. very familiar.

me down in the south meanwhile

oh ppl are fighting catholics now?
when #baptists have been fighting #catholics down here since forever
and don’t get me started on mormons/lutherans etc. here w/us that baptists despise
my mother went on a 15 minute rant on how much she wants to close a door on a

This one isn't hard to puzzle out. The Christian Nationalist movement that Hegseth is part of is Evangelical to its core. They view Catholics with something between suspicion and outright hostility. Hegseth previously invited pastor Doug Wilson to lead a prayer service at the Pentagon. 4/

wat

Any Christian who believes a lifetime adulterer, sinner & alleged rapist like Hegseth when it comes to Jesus, and not the Pope, is not a real Christian.

Absolutely nothing from MAGA Bishop Robert Barron over on Twitter about Hegseth's banning the Catholic celebration of the Lord's Passion on Good Friday.

Ryan Goodman: "Hegseth's purge of Black and women officers is larger than was previously reported. Hegseth has taken steps to block or delay promotions for MORE THAN A DOZEN Black and female senior officers across all four branches of the military."

Hegseth is a fucking moron.

I’m glad Trump and Hegseth “totally destroyed” Iran’s air defense systems last week so none of our aircraft would get shot down.

Nothing about this war is good for America.

Hegseth is a religious extremist who is only reinforcing the “holy war” narrative.

This is exactly what we shouldn’t be doing.

In Hegseth’s Dept of War, Catholics are considered idolaters who won’t be allowed to worship in public, cf Muslims, Hindus etc (see Doug Wilson). The US army is now in the hands of a fringe cult.
The crusade to kill anyone targeted as an enemy in defence of their “Christian West” is scary.

Scott's right. This is a pattern now emerging: Hegseth doesn't want bad news reported.

#haikaveh re-up

Hey friends! I will be posting a Zhongchi oneshot, a Haikaveh oneshot, and another playable Hangman game on AO3 next week. That's all—thank you! ♡

Like an I feel awful because I can’t
so after too much thinking an sleepless nights many many sleepless nights i’m gonna have to take it slow. cuz it’s too overwhelming. and the guilt is like slowly paralyzing me.
but i can’t tell ppl this so hello stress.

talking to me like they know me and jre like oh my god I have no references no tethers it’s just this
feeling of somehow I trust this person or these groups of ppl and it’s like how?? when?? where did they come from why am I still finding random conversations I don’t remember having ????

I’m
Look I was in a different place in 2023
it’s 2026 and the group I was in? It’s all gone. All of it. What’s left is what remained with me after a divorce I didn’t ask for. and I’m not saying it’s bad In that
it’s new people it’s new building blocks it’s people

And honestly I think I’m going to have to take baby steps in basically being human again I think uhhh during the holidays it was too much
too soon
I mean it’s not
It’s not everyone’s fault
the people here that Ace met and got friendly with
the people she *sighs* grew close to but it’s just

On top of it I realized
2 years wherever I went
I kind of

It’s like I went in reverse jeezes
How do I undo what Akechi and Jay and others have fought so hard for me to not do anymore
like it’s
Ugh
Sticky
I don’t know how bad it got or was during that time but clearly it was.

But it’s weird I didn’t want this 2 years ago I don’t want it now but

It’s a thing.

Dunno it’s a weird fuzzy fucked up mess and honestly I just want to like not focus on it and sorta threw everything into political talk so
yeah
It’s a slow process

in my head so it’s

And it doesn’t help I still remember her accounts she’s still on my tumblr she’s still
present in so many big and small ways and I
can’t
do anything
and the weirder part?
A small part of me doesn’t want to
It’s like it’s ….acceptance?

I don’t know what I want anymore

But I know
I’m starting to fully remember who ///I am
I don’t remember the 2 years I was gone.
I’m still dreaming of Akechi but it’s not as consistent?
It’s weird it’s like
it’s like two different things are running at the same time so I’m in this weird war

Anyway so nothings really changed
Well I mean

I don’t know
It’s weird
I feel more like….me? Less
less umm
lost ?
Like there’s been a lot more days I’m remembering
Me
Mercy
The one who *gestures* climbed out of a hole in 2020 and didn’t stop.
The one who
it’s not a life but it’s ///mine
