Anyone who reblogs this post will have their user written on a poster saying "We Stand With Palestine" that I hope to put up somewhere in the village I live in, or the town that the village is next to.

I'll provide moral support too and say stuff like, "I'm not saying you deserve it, but...oh wait. Yes I am. You deserve it. I hope you step on a lego covered in horse poop," as I point, laugh, film the anti-feminist, and post it everywhere on the internet. I'm a five-foot-four, LGBT, neurodivergent Korean, but I have a large support network who will back me up as I stand on the sidelines, so any anti-feminist would be taking on a whole group in that case. It's not me you have to worry about though, it's my buddy Lukas, the most masculine intersectional feminist I know. He doesn't have a Tumblr, but he'll fight any anti-feminist, Radfem, and TERF too. He's a mixed martial artist and was winning fights against people like this in middle school while the teachers weren't looking. He's a short king too.
I'd very much like to punch a feminist.
I’d never, ever hurt a lady but I’d be happy to punch a feminist.
It’d bring me great joy.

Ouran High School Host Club. My best friend got me into the anime and when I saw one of the manga books at the library, I did metaphorical backflips. I checked it out and read it with my late Dad, best friend, and uncle when my dad and uncle took us on vacation in high school. It's one of our shared special interests (we're both autistic).

Oh, wow.
That's impressive.
Maybe I need to get out more. I took a walk today (been having mental health issues but I'm getting better at getting out of bed and going outside) but if I made 100 posts I need to walk more. I'm still proud of myself.

I saw what smoking did to my late Dad firsthand and addiction runs in my family, and I didn't want that to happen to me. Plus, I'm neurodivergent and on meds to help me with my anxiety and depression. I got it drilled in my head that I CAN'T smoke even if I wanted to by my mom, stepdad, and late Dad (who tried so hard to quit and he ultimately failed, and the smoking combined with an unrelated case of small cell cancer combined with prostate cancer killed him), and ultimately, they are right. I told my friends to shoot me if I ever give in and start smoking.
#nope#tw: depression#tw: cancer#neurodivergent#tw: anxiety#i was exposed to a lot of second-hand smoke from my dad#but i never wanted to smoke or even try it#except like once where I wanted to be my dad#he told me not to do it#even though he was a smoker#medication#autism#the cigarettes would clash with the meds and it won't end well if I do both#generational addiction

How to spot Liberal Zionist Propaganda 101
This post is by no means exhaustive at all. There are many Liberal Zionist talking points but these are just some of the most common ones. While on the surface they seem a little naive and hopeful at best, they are very much harmful. If you claim to be an ally to Palestinians, this post is primarily for you!
For starters, liberal Zionists will often try to both-sides the issue of Palestine, talk about how it's complicated, they'll claim that the conflict hurts both Israelis and Palestinians, how the only way forward is one where Jews and Arabs "just need to get along," amongst other things. They also often like to centre themselves, even when acknowledging Palestinians as the victims of Israel or this "conflict." From time to time, they also like to engage in tokenising certain Palestinians whose views tend to more or less align with theirs. Here are some common arguments you may hear from them:
1. Any form of justifying Israel's existence or claiming that the only solution is two states
It does not really need to be said why justifying Israel's existence is harmful but justifying its continued existence also means legitimising Israel's land theft, its expulsions of Palestinians, and its ongoing harm to Palestinians and other populations. Reducing any sorts of “solutions” into a binary is unhelpful. Needless to say, a 2ss would not even address any legitimate concerns Palestinian have, such as the right of return, and would only legitimise Israel’s colonialism. Talking about a two-state solution also implies that the root of the conflict lies in Palestinians not having their own state rather than being an occupied people. It is very much also possible to construct a paradigm where Jews and Palestinians both live together on the same land as equal citizens that doesn't involve two separate states, much less an ethnostate.
2. Security for Israel could only come through peace
This is a similar talking point to the one above. Not only does it centre Israeli safety and security above Palestinian liberation but it mistakenly assumes that once Israel makes peace with Palestinians, it'll achieve security. The reality, however, is that Israel's imagined security has quite often come at the expense of peace. In fact, "peace" has just acted as nothing more than a smoke-screen for Israel to carry out its expansionist policies, particularly in the West Bank. When liberal Zionists talk about peace juxtaposed with Israeli security, they're talking about attaining a negative peace rather than a positive one.
3. Israelis are not their government.
This point does nothing to actually help Palestinians. It is also an incredibly tone-deaf thing to say when Israel has targeted many Palestinian civilians by having alleged proximity to Hamas, such as being family members of militants or leaders (inc. children!), civil servants in a Hamas-led government, or even any male above the age of 15 they consider to be a potential combatant! It also deliberately erases Israeli civilians' support of and culpability in Israel's actions towards Palestinians.
4. Netanyahu and/or the Israeli right are the source of conflict.
While it is true that things have gotten inadvertently worse under Israel's various right-wing governments, they are not the source of conflict, but rather a product of extremist nationalism and Jewish supremacy perpetuated by the system. Both the 1967 occupations and settlements were undertaken under centre-left governments in Israel, and Israeli policy under non-right wing governments has been just as harmful towards Palestinians and has paved the way for where we are today. Blaming Netanyahu just also obscures the violent nature of Israel's military occupation over Palestinians which long precede him coming into power.
5. Netanyahu and Hamas are two sides of the same coin
I don't think I've seen any allies give validity to this claim but it's an extremely reductionist claim and is sort of similar to the one above. Groups like Hamas are merely a response to the Israeli occupation while Netanyahu is a byproduct of it. While some Israelis may see Hamas or their actions as an "obstacle to peace," Israel's actions and policies long pre-date Hamas and how Israel is currently responding to Hamas is no different to how Israel has engaged with Palestinian militant groups in the past, regardless of political affiliations or political goals. It is also important to note that Hamas has agreed to the establishment of a state along 1967 borders while Netanyahu aims to prolong the occupation and empower the settler movement (some of whom are part of his coalition government) as much as possible.
6. Israel is not a settler-colonial state.
While it is indisputable that Jews have historical connections to Palestine, that doesn’t automatically make you Indigenous or negate Israeli settler-colonialism. Colonialism in particular describes a relationship of exploitation. There are many cases of this, but we most clearly see this in the West Bank where Israel exploits natural resources on occupied Palestinian territory for its own political and economic gains. In terms of settler-colonialism, it is widely known that Israel expelled hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to make way for Jewish refugees and migrants to the new state of Israel, and is still actively facilitating Jewish migration to Israel today while denying Palestinians their right of return.
7. (X) doesn't help Palestinians.
It is not up to anyone to determine whether certain tactics or strategies are helpful or not. This point only seeks to discredit pro-Palestine organising. Only Palestinians get to decide what is actually helpful for the cause or not.
8. Any sort of Hamas-blaming.
On the surface it may seem like there’s nothing wrong with this, but this point is often harmful and usually lends itself to right-wing talking points because its objective is to deflect blame away from Israel. Certain arguments blaming Hamas also aim to minimise Palestinian suffering perpetuated by Israel. It also paints Israeli violence as retaliatory to Palestinian violence which only obfuscates Israel’s (and by extension, the US’) role in its state military apparatus and the differing power dynamics between Israelis and Palestinians. In other contexts, this point seeks to also legitimise certain opposition, such as the Palestinian Authority. Hamas-blaming also tends to sometimes lead to racist diatribes about Palestinians and their culture.
9. Al-Jazeera is not a credible news source.
Al Jazeera is a news source like any other. It has varying editorial policies and therefore will have equally good reporting on certain issues while having terrible reporting on others. The difference is that Al-Jazeera's news on Palestine is credible because it comes directly from their Palestinian reporters on the ground and first-hand eyewitness accounts. Western news sources are no more or less credible than al-Jazeera. Compare this to CNN, NYT, and any other Western news sources where Palestinian voices are often entirely missing from the narrative.
10. Overemphasis of antisemitism on the left
Antisemitism is a real issue and has the potential to fester in left circles if not directly addressed head on. Combatting antisemitism is extremely important, however, it is not an issue exclusive to the left. There is also a double standard in that no one expects Zionists to call out Islamophobia and anti-Palestinian racism. Certain accusations of "antisemitism" also seek to distract from what's going on in Palestine by making it about Jewish comfort and feelings. Combatting antisemitism, Islamophobia, anti-Arab racism etc is always important as the basis of good politics.
Last but not least, be wary of native collaborators or any sort of normalisers! They are Palestinians or Arabs who try very hard to appeal to Western liberal consensus and can end up perpetuating a lot of harm to the cause and/or other activists. You will know them when you see them.

Actually, some of my headcanons and the way I portray Thranduil have changed in recent years but several also haven't changed much/at all. I actually had Thranduil's sister's (Calemir) mom divorce Oropher because I wanted to see more blended family dynamics in the people of Arda, but I wasn't sure if I should mention that, so I tried something different but decided I liked the divorcing thing better.
Additionally, Thranduil's mom no longer got taken by gold sickness, but she did die after being attacked while playing in the woods with Legolas one day. She and Legolas were taken to Gundabad by The Witch-King of Angmar, and she chose to save Legolas over herself. She wasn't mad about the necklace either, it just had sentimental value to her, so she was disappointed.
More of how I portray Thranduil
-Thranduil and Legolas are incredibly close, despite their misunderstandings.
-Legolas has lived in joy, despite his difficulties, which causes people to shame him for having depression or, in medieval terms: being an ungrateful pessimist who complains despite his happy childhood.
-If anyone uses the age-old "People have it so much worse than you" on Legolas, that person will be summoned to the throne room to apologize to both of them.
-He's either a power bottom or a needy bottom, and there's no in-between. He'll be completely obedient to get what he wants, though.
-Is a generous but high-maintenance friend and romantic partner.
-Surprisingly, he's a cuddler, and he loves hugs.
-He's as much of a dork as Legolas is.
-Thranduil and Legolas were both soldiers when they were young, not children, but not adults either. This was an act of desperation during wartime because of the situations they were both in and because they were running out of resources and adults to send to battle.
-Thranduil's relationship with Legolas mirrors his one with Oropher. Oropher was a loving father, but he struggled and he and Thranduil misunderstood each other.
-His mother was a Silvan elf and the sister of Amdír, who I have changed to a female Silvan elf and Celeborn's mother to get rid of the imperialist/colonialist elements in Tolkien's work.
-Amroth is Celeborn's brother alongside Galathil and they are Thranduil's cousins. Galadhon is Thranduil's uncle, and Elmo, Olwë, and Thingol are his kinsman. Through Celeborn's maternal aunt, he's a grandson of Elmo and the grand-nephew of Thingol and Olwë.
-Celeborn was close to Thranduil when he was a baby, as Thranduil's mother died young because she was killed for a crime she didn't commit shortly after his birth. Celeborn knew of his aunt's innocence and was furious to know what had happened. He took it upon himself to help Oropher babysit Thranduil.
-Thranduil has an older sister through a different Silvan mother who also suffered a tragic fate, so Oropher has some issues that caused friction in his otherwise loving familial relationships.
-The mother of his sister was the queen of the Silvan elves. She died in battle, but she came back to Arda, so Oropher remarried her and became the prince consort of the woodland realm so that the colonialist element of Oropher, a Sindarin elf, becoming the king of the Silvan elves because they were 'leaderless' and 'uncivilized' isn't there. Yes, I know he adopted their ways, but it's a colonialist narrative to have a 'not-civilized' group adopt someone who's 'civilized' as their leader, even if they adopt their ways.
-Contrary to popular belief, Galadriel, Celeborn, Elrond, and Thranduil do all get along, they just don't see eye to eye and are friends that are like siblings and constantly argue.
-It's actually Oropher that doesn't like Galadriel because she's a Noldor even though she had nothing to do with the kinslayings and even condemned her relatives for such actions and he thinks Celeborn is a bad influence on his sweet baby children.
-"This is what happens when you remain a bachelor and fraternize with the enemy!"
-I'm definitely thinking of Ming Lee and Meilin Lee for Oropher and Thranduil, a loving but overbearing and overprotective and even controlling parent.
-Or like, a hybrid between Elinor and Merida and Ming and Meilin.
-Celeborn would bounce baby Thranduil on his knee and play with him and spoil him rotten.
-Some of Oropher's contempt for Galadriel and the Noldor rubbed off on Thranduil, but he and Galadriel later made a truce, and eventually made up because Thranduil loved his cousin Celeborn more than he disliked Galadriel at the time even though he disagreed with Celeborn's choice to marry her and even argued with him on it.
-Celeborn got them both to stop arguing with him and each other by threatening to call off his engagement to Galadriel and to never speak to Thranduil again. That immediately got them both to shut up.
-When Elrond and Thranduil were younger at meetings, Elrond tried to parent him, even then, despite being younger than him by 30 years.
-As he was a Noldor, Thranduil and Oropher disliked both Elrond and Gil-Galad, but for Elrond, the feeling wasn't mutual.
-One day, Thranduil saw Elrond chatting with some other elves about how much he cared about Thranduil and even though Thranduil hates him and the Noldor in general, he doesn't hate all Sindar and even considers Thranduil a friend.
-This broke Thranduil's heart into a million tiny pieces and from that moment on, they were besties.
-Used to be friends with Thorin when they were both princes.
-Thorin had romantic feelings for Thranduil and vice versa, but Thranduil was also in love with another, a Silvan elf that was a commoner and a baker.
-Thranduil is old and grumpy and HATES pie (Lee Pace said so), but he used to love pie, namely blueberry pie, one his wife would make for him. He turns up his nose at any pie that isn't made by her, even if it means being rude to a host, as he hasn't touched pie since due to his grief.
-His first word was blueberry. His second word was a curse word.
-Thranduil thinks Thingol was the biggest prick alive, but also thinks that he didn't deserve to die. His prejudice against the dwarves stems from here.
-His wife was alive when Thrór denied him the necklace she had commissioned for her: this led to her getting gold-sick and led to her death, cementing Thranduil's hatred of the dwarves: he holds them responsible for the death of his wife.
-Secretly, Thranduil blames himself for her death for failing to stop her and save her. His wife spilled innocent dwarven blood as well as the blood of men and orcs to get her necklace back. Thranduil hates himself more than he hates the dwarves, and these two things overlap, due to his prejudice and self-blame, he projects his self-hatred onto the dwarves and comes off as more prejudiced than he is.
-Thranduil started drinking in a desperate attempt to not die from heartbreak, he became an alcoholic because he's desperate to stay alive for his people and his son. He wobbles on his throne and passes out in a puddle of wine surrounded by empty bottles no matter what he's doing.
-Thranduil is actually a part of the white council and he maintains many of his alliances to keep supplies coming to the forest, but he wasn't present at the meeting because he was at the middle-earth equivalent of All Addicts Anonymous.
Edit: at first I didn’t remember where I found out the bits about the colonialism/imperialism in Thranduil and Oropher’s narrative about becoming the leaders of the leaderless silvan elves, but I do now. Credits to @diversetolkien for inspiring these ideas/headcanons about Oropher and Thranduil marrying into preexisting Silvan royalty.

Here’s the long-awaited post I promised about my OC for Thranduil’s sister.
So sorry it took this long, I had some stuff I was dealing with irl.
Calemir. The older sister of Thranduil. She’s actually Thranduil’s half sister. Oropher split up with Calemir’s mom and married Thranduil’s mom, being one of the first elves to divorce their spouse.
Thranduil’s mom was executed on false charges, and Oropher didn’t realize they were false accusations until it was too late, making things between him, Calemir, and Thranduil complicated. Nevertheless, she helped Oropher to raise Thranduil.
Calemir is a very independent woman of Russian-German, Algerian, and Scottish-Irish descent who’s outspoken when she has to be, since she’s a woman of color in the Middle Ages, but she’s otherwise more laidback and less outspoken when she’s with her loved ones. She’s like a blend of Roxanne from the 2021 film Cyrano and Merida from Brave in personality, an intellectual, romantic, and courageous woman who’s ahead of her time. She challenges the status quo and corrupt authority figures and she’s a skilled warrior who bravely fought against the forces of both Melkor and Sauron.
She mentored both Thranduil and Legolas via pulling naughty pranks with them and getting into mischief with them. She’s easygoing, warm, and playful. She has a way with words, and she likes to mess with people sometimes and she doesn’t mind offering advice, but she’ll answer in the usual manner of the elves (she’ll say both no and yes) unless there’s no time and she needs to give a more straightforward explanation.
For all her positive attributes, her faults tend to get in the way of them. She has Thranduil’s temper, impatience, and stubbornness, but lacks his mistrust and cynicism. Her temper only comes out if you push her too far and she’s otherwise relatively calm, but she’s extremely stern and sharp-tongued when she’s furious and past her limits. She also has Legolas’s competitiveness. She also expects people to have common sense and basic decency and becomes frustrated when they don’t, especially if it’s coming from people that she knows have been taught better, and she tends to get petty and judgmental over people not having any logic or respect, ironically not showing them any respect for being idiotic and rude, even if she takes into account as to why they might be that way and if they have a valid explanation or not.
Legolas takes after Calemir the most in his family, as they’re both eccentric individuals who are capable of coming up with witty comebacks to insults at the drop of a hat, they are the liveliest people in the room, and the similarities never seem to end.
Now, this is more based on the way I interpret Legolas, so these attributes of Calemir are based on that: Calemir and Legolas are both self-conscious individuals deep down and both of them are oblivious and they are reckless, flamboyant daredevils, but they are intelligent in their own way. They’re the type of people to stick their hands directly in the mousetrap to get the cheese, but they do so while wearing protective gear that enables them to not get killed and escape with the treat.
The reason I chose those gifs at the top is because if I could choose an actress to play her, I’d choose Jennifer Hudson. She’s a beautiful, plus-size elven woman with all the feminine charms and grace you’d expect of an elf. She likes both feminine and masculine things and had Thranduil not been the heir as Oropher’s only son, she would have been the queen. Yet she’s a queen in her own right and plays a crucial role in running the kingdom of Eryn Lasgalen.
Calemir’s name means green jewel. I used one of the name generators @determamfidd used for their elf OCs in Sansûkh, one of my favorite gigolas fanfictions, to make Calemir’s name.
I will add more to this post later.

Okay, I did some more research concerning the fairy gala, and it’s more so the writing than it is Vil and the teachers. Idk what Yana Tabosa was thinking when she had Vil whip Leona, Kalim, and Jamil and referred to them as ‘exotic’ and other things, but this is a problem with Yana, Disney, and Aniplex themselves, so why waste time hating on a fictional character when you could take steps to fix that problematic writing and those equally problematic characterizations instead?
I’ve read some posts about some problematic elements of the Diasomnia uniforms, the inaccurate characterizations of the characters of color in TWST, and how events like Glorious Masquerade and Stage in Playful Land and their respective event characters are handled negatively, and they explain all this better than I can. One of the users also has valid reasons for disliking Vil and they aren’t just blindly hating. That said, Vil is honestly a great character and so are Leona, Jamil, and Kalim, but Yana, Disney, and Aniplex honestly did them and the other minority characters in TWST (ex. Sam) dirty and not only did they handle the events such as Glorious Masquerade and Stage in Playful Land poorly, but even if it was all a misunderstanding, I don’t get how that can just fly over people’s heads and why people can’t just take accountability and try to be more careful in the future if it does. Also, Yana is 40 years old and she’s been in the industry for a long time. I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but that seems suspicious.
Edit: I didn’t see that initially when I watched the videos, so I must have either missed it or it got censored.
sighs. no vil's backstory is not "him being mad that he was typecast". and even if it was he'd still be valid to be angry at that because being typecast, especially at a young age, can hurt your self perception and cause others to see you in a bad light no matter what you do. and we know that vil experienced this, because it literally showed him being bullied. because he was typecast. but anyways his actual reason for overblotting is that no matter what he does he can't win. it doesn't matter if he puts on a better performance than neige, because people will vote for neige anyways, it doesn't matter if he's a talented actor, because he will keep getting the same roles he's always gotten, and it doesn't matter how hard he tries, he won't ever be appreciated for the roles he plays

Several of these. I have depression and it would stink to be thought of as lazy because that’s a common misconception about depressed people, but I’ve also been gaslit by my own high school teachers and called manipulative for relaying what I had already been told by other teachers. They were the manipulative ones, not me. They just didn’t like the message, so they decided to shoot the messenger.

When South Africa dismantled apartheid, it did not end with the expulsion of all white South Africans. They became part of the new South Africa, just without the criminal discriminatory oligarchic powers the apartheid goverment had. When Bolivia recognized its indigenous heritage and became a plurinational state, it did not mean that people of European descent were expelled in masse. It meant the recognition of the previously discriminated indigenous and mestizo people of Bolivia and the beginning of a path of integration and revalidation.
What I mean is that it's ridiculous to think that decolonization inherently means mass suffering and relocation, that's what colonization does. Decolonization is recognizing the crimes of colonization, but more importantly, material, political and social steps to give power and self-determination to the exploited native people who were victims of colonialism and imperialism.
In multicultural societies, you don't go like in that Peter Griffin meme with a skin tone chart and saying 'well, you go back to Europe, you go back to Africa, you stay here'. You build a new society on the paradigm of dignity for exploited people and equality under the law. People are acting like this is some sort of fantastic utopia instead of real initiatives that were done in living memory, with successes and failures, as all such initiatives have. One must ask why are some so insistent that multicultural societies can't thrive, especially when for most of history, societies were indeed like that. Consider why you think like that.

Okay, as unrealistic as this seems, hear me out: Legolas and Malleus being childhood besties. I mean, yeah, he’s a dragon fae and dragons have a bad rep in middle earth, especially to dwarves and elves, but I heard Lilia is aware of other worlds somewhere so I bet one day he took little Malleus on vacation with him to visit an old frenemy of his (Thranduil) and Malleus and Legolas meet each other and they go: “Oh! A friend!” Legolas recognizes that Malleus is a dragon fae and not a dragon and he’s aware of dragons/lóngs in the very far east who are benevolent (unlike Smaug), and Legolas was much more accepting as a kid and he’d just be happy to have a friend at all since he was considered to be the “weird kid” growing up and he had no friends because no one wanted to befriend him. He and Malleus would be menaces to society together. On that note, imagine Lilia and Thranduil as frenemies. Thranduil doesn’t trust anyone and claims to be suspicious of Lilia, but he tolerates his presence despite that as he secretly likes his company and the fact that Lilia has remained by his side when he lost everyone and everything else. He always has a guest suite and presents prepared for Lilia when he comes to visit. Lilia by contrast doesn’t always agree with Thranduil (he doesn’t like his prejudices nor does he agree with his politics and policies), but he adores Thranduil nevertheless and always brings him trinkets from his travels and dotes on Legolas, who calls him “Uncle Lilia” and considers him family. Lilia definitely helped Thranduil to raise Legolas when he was struggling and they learned how to be good parents together. Their friendship is probably helped along because Lilia has the hots for one of Thranduil’s relatives. I’ll tell you more about my OC/concept for her in a second post at a later date. In the meantime, imagine something like this as the dynamic between the four.
Edit: She’s Thranduil’s sister and I’m working on writing down some stuff about her as I’m going to have to for the post I’m gonna make.
Legolas, after sneaking out with Malleus: Don’t let Ada hear us. It is SO past my bedtime.
Thranduil, storming in: LEGOLAS! It is SO past your bedtime!
Legolas, nervous: *gulps*
Malleus, who actually fears Thranduil’s wrath: *cowers*
Malleus and Legolas: *bolt to Lilia’s room for protection as they scream bloody murder* AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!
Thranduil, giving chase but fails to catch them: AND DON’T FORGET TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH!!!!!!
Lilia, who helped Legolas and Malleus sneak out like the menace he is: *pokes his head out of the bedroom* Thranduil! What did I say about yelling at the kids!? Screaming won’t help!
