Genuinely cannot tell if the shirtless gammon coloured Alex jones is real or another onion bit

the right wing criticism of modernity always operates the same: it identifies the alienation of modern life, but its solution is to respond to this state of affairs with the so-called "freedom" of "natural hierarchies": man over woman, white over racialized, family over foreigner, nation over other

Are women bourgeois?

Heyyy everybody! Coming to yal because I need yal to watch and share this cartoon! This is the FIRSTTTT Haitian-American cartoon in America EVER! It premiered on Cartoon Network today and they need our support! youtu.be/RyFlefn92N8?...

Holding men accountable for sexual violence against women would be, you will be dismayed to learn, exactly like the abuses of the war on terror, the surveillance of the Gestapo, and the death flights of the Argentinian junta

moon child becoming a huge meme overnight and then the original devs finding out and being the chillest people ever RELEASING ALL OF THE SOURCE FOR FREE is genuinely the best possible outcome

Canonically, the Minions always work for the most evil people in the world at a given point in time. It is so hilariously unnecessary to make a film that implies they will soon work for Hitler.

No one is forcing you to make this movie! Who thought this was a good idea?!

This image possesses a unique and powerful aura I’ve only seen matched once before

A screenshot of Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream featuring a Mii based on G1 Bumblebee. Having been given the yellow car costume, he's smiling with a caption reading "He loves it!"

the moment i saw the little car costume i knew what i had to do

You may notice my view of history, as indicated in these threads, is more than a little bit Marxist - people do the things they do because of material conditions.

It's important to understand atrocities like slavery and genocide are deliberate, calculated acts of evil, not "mistakes."

This is not to say that genocide is, like, good or natural or necessary in these situations.

But from the eyes of an amoral State unwilling to cede them their autonomy, it is the most efficient solution to the problem of a recalcitrant minority population.

This also begs the question: What happens if you have a conquered subject population that is infeasible to integrate (e.g. stateless nomads who just leave when the tax collector comes around) but don't have the need for slaves?

...You kill them. Genocide is not a modern invention, unfortunately.

Basically I'm saying:

Sexual violence against female (and often, male) slaves: Very common, horrifically so

Women being captured and sold into slavery specifically to provide sexual services to a rich man: No, bad, this is the deranged cuckolding fantasy of European orientalists!

Let's do another "historical anthropology applied to worldbuilding thread"

Yes, I said no more threads, but there's something I promised to do a thread on a bit back: the subject of slavery, that most ubiquitous of crimes against humanity.

Why do we do this to other human beings? Why so *often?*

I’ve always wanted to hold a small pinball tournament where the only rule was that you’re not allowed to move Meatloaf.

a bear vacuuming a floor as a japanese salaryman looks on in terror

found out about the manga kuma gurashi which is like those ones where a manic pixie dream girl comes into a salaryman's life and starts doing all his domestic chores for him to heal his heart except in this one it's a realistically drawn bear and the salaryman is terrified on every single page

A drawing of the artist walking around with a silly smile, while a carabiner holding keys, connected to her pants, is making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sound. Above her is a thought bubble with a robot bearing the caption "Lesbotron 3000", also making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sounds.

What do you mean it’s “lesbian visibility week”? Don’t look at me

My cat has an incredible instinct for kneading directly on my nipple when i have no bra on

politely explaining to small cat that her claws are retractable and she can actually store them inside her sweet little beans, she doesn't have to store them in my knee

the use of strap ons, toys, fingers, and diverse body forms delinked from specific sex acts or functions in lesbian sex is what dephallicizes all that which has been inscribed phallic. ironically, attempting to "bind" lesbian sex to universally prohibit or restrict parts of the body or modes of sex "by taxonomy" is a "phallic" act ... lesbians in love are constantly remixing how the body is touched and used and interpreted, and what toys and objects can be created and used as a shared mode. the barrier between the emergent ("biological") and the created ("artificial") is breached, and so the potential of lesbian sex exists in an ever-shifting biological-machinic coitus. very often this is why lesbian sex is treated as either "inferior" or "corrupted". one will claim that the strap on is "inferior to the real natural Man" whereas another will claim that the strap on is "an alien invasion upon a pure natural zone". both seek to tear apart the intimate union, and in doing so render the lesbian a creature of pure nature. but what this politics rejects is that which keeps lesbian sex so self-reflective: that the lesbian uses her hands in the act of constructing new "technologies of pleasure".

happy lesbian visibility. do not acknowledge anything you see online about people trying to call strap ons heteronormative or questioning why trans women are around or similar such bullshit and just read this and take it to heart

maybe they do evil plumbing. like dumping coins into the toilet to clog them. This is probably the source of every single plumbing problem Mario and Luigi have to fix, because toads don't poop

do wario and waluigi plumb or is their thing just copying the bros outfits?

Do Mario and Luigi do all the plumbing in mushroom kingdom or are there other unrecognized plumbers who toil behind the scenes named Giuseppe or Jonathan or something
