Super important PSA: the most punk rock shit ever is being compassionate and empathetic to other people and animals and the world

Well then you're disagreeing with history

To be clear, fuck Israel. But Israel is a pawn of the USA, always has been. The US and its Imperial Leader (the POTUS) does nothing it doesn't already want to do. Genocide and war is as US American as apple pie

Gotta love the framing here. The author of the piece makes it sound like the USA has always been a peace loving innocent country until the Evil Israelis whispered in Trump's ear, a wee impressionable smol bean, and made him go to war! No mention that the US has wanted to bomb Iran since the 80s

You got it backwards. Israel is a de facto military base for the USA. The US has always been a settler colonial genocide machine since before its creation. Israel is just a convenient fall guy for the USA's depravity

Took the words right out of my mouth. This paints the Trump Administration, and the US Government historically, as some sort of peace loving entity when in reality, Israel is just an extension of US settler colonialism. As Biden said, if Israel didn't exist, the US would have to create one

I mean judging by how transphobic both the paper and the Trump Administration are, this makes sense

Got a little bit of sleep. Well rested enough to tell Yappy Marxist Leninist's and Anarchists to get offline and Organize, Y'all just talk shit about each other online just for the hell of it. The Drama is Infantile behavior. Lenin would hate your ass, Kropotkin would hate your ass.

everything we are seeing now is the consequence of having a political environment in which indifference to the deaths and suffering of other people - even by the state whose supposed responsibility is to safeguard their welfare - is a superpower rather than a political liability

Those in the imperial core owe the world much much more.

I'm honestly shocked at this. I really enjoy a lot of her Youtube content, this is very upsetting. I would have thought that out of everyone SHE would see the dangers of using (as Steph Sterling calls it) Regurgitative AI

Exactly, it's called ACTING! FAKE IT!

Buddy I have ADHD, this take is ableist AF

Fellow historian here. My critique is that popular history sacrifices accuracy for readability. Pop history is often entertaining but just as often straight up wrong

Re-traumatizing yourself in order to convey "authentic" emotions in your performance is actually really unhealthy (I'm an actress)

You are literally proving OP’s point 🤦🏻‍♀️

some of you are letting bad people lead you from a reasonable observation (zionism bad) into some pretty dark fucked up shit and I'm disappointed in you

post a gif of who you wanted to be as a kid

Couldn't have said it better myself!

The Platner stans are a fucking joke

If you're at a table with 10 Nazis, there are 11 Nazis

Mom read the nutrition labels and calculated calories per dollar so we could stretch our foodstamp money.

Happy International Working Women's Day to all my fellow women proletarians!

Also, obligatory FUCK FRANK MILLER, the Fascist scum

Comparing the three films, IMO The Punisher is the best of the lot. The abysmal treatment of women in Sin City turns otherwise phenomenal films into utter shit shows. Therefore, The Punisher tops this mini marathon

The Punisher on the other hand has much more conventional visuals. That being said, the story was solid, really only one plot hole which is minor, the action is fantastic, and the few women characters are treated respectfully when they appear on screen at all. Thomas Jane is MY Punisher! 3/

Sin City and its sequel are peek Frank Miller. Which means that, while the visuals and action are breathtaking, the women are either powerless waifs or femsploitated sex workers. In every case, a man must save them from danger. It’s also Laura Mulvey’s worst nightmare: male gaze in the WORST way 2/

I did a mini comic book movie marathon yesterday: Sin City, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, and The Punisher (2004). All films I enjoyed as a teen/young adult. Here are my thoughts 1/

Trans Kansans Struggle With ‘Cruelty’ As Driver’s Licenses Are Invalidated - Truthdig The Kansas Department of Revenue last week sent a letter to Kansans affected by a new law that requires the gender marker on a driver’s license to match a person’s sex at birth.
