Peace, Goodwill to All Men AND Women

Of course, I am going to blog about peace and goodwill today. And, in so doing, I am sucker-punching the enemy of my soul. I have had way too many reasons to throw in the towel lately than I care to talk about. But you probably know that I can’t help but talk about it. My peace was interrupted by a printer problem and then a computer problem. Because I am a blogger and writer, AND greeting card…

the whole lot of tf 141 deserve a little kiss. they deserve to have their cheeks cupped while your thumbs swipe at the skin just underneath their eyes. they deserve a quiet moment with their love—the one who grounds them back down because they need to feel that they’re alive, that they’re okay, that they’re safe.

GETTING ON TUMBLR TO BLOG ABOUT THE SOUNDTRACK VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!

It's really interesting to explore the place of religion in the Lockwood and Co universe, partly because Stroud sort of paints it as a coping mechanism/blind faith/mental crutch in the books (or extrapolates things like ghost cults, the Combe Carey monks, etc. from it)

Ik it’s my own fault for picking a spicier script for a 500 subscriber special on YouTube but I am dying a little recording this 😭

i cannot keep drawing this dude on my phone but god do i love drawing him (+ bonus colors)

wHIRL!

Whirl honey ohhhh wow.

You’re actually disgusting. How can you support a genocide? How can you be pro Israel when Israel shouldn’t even exist in the first place, it’s Palestine!!! it’s not a conflict, it’s a genocide!! Israel is oppressing and killing Palestinians for the past 70 years, but yet you side with them. Palestine retaliates for the first time and Israel get shook, it’s not nice being on the receiving end but they love to dish all that harm out themselves. You’re a nasty nasty human being and you have no humanity or heart. Because no normal person would stand besides colonisers like that. You’re disgusting. Shame on you

I'm really not going to fight with you. I'm just going to say that killing people is wrong, for any reason. And my friends are in imminent danger and I am scared for them.

Hamas is not a government, they do not care about their people, and they did not start this war with the intent of making life better for Palestinians. They started this war to murder jews. they went to a music festival and killed people and took hostages and raped women and beheaded children and murdered holocaust survivors. and if you think that's ok, then YOU are disgusting and deserve shame.

If you think murder is good, unfollow me right the fuck now.

There is so much nuance missing from conversations. things are not black and white. Jews and Israel HAVE colonized in part, and they HAVE reclaimed their ancestral homeland, and they HAVE accepted UN border guidelines in 1948, and they HAVE cut off resources from gaza including for civilians and they HAVE done a lot of fucked up shit.

But our government colonized, claimed land that didn't belong to them, disobeyed international orders, cut off resources, murdered people, and fucked up too. America has way less of a right to exist than Israel.

NOT that it should matter in this discussion, but I believe in a two state solution, I genuinely don't care where the lines are as long as everyone has access to their holy sites, I think Netanyahu is terrible and hurts Israel and diaspora Jews.

But no one has the right to kill other people.

Super cool how after my post about 'pls let me have this one space to escape the trauma' resulted in multiple asks about this.

I know we all hate bitch ass Calvin and his pre-determination, but I just learned the term Arminian and think we should show homeboys Jacobus Arminius and John Wesley some hate too <3

pros of learning how to play fighting game:

undergoing a learning experience, trying out something entirely different from anything i have previously played

i get to look at a little guy do cool things on my screen :)

cons of learning how to play fighting game:

i am clumsy as all hell with the inputs

the order in which you press and/or hold buttons to create inputs is less like trying to get a sequence of movements right and more like playing a rhythm game (down then while not letting go of down press forward then let go of down and THEN press an attack button on the other side of the keyboard). i suck at rhythm games. hell world

sometimes, the damn things just... won't register? at all? you do a half circle to forward input and the game says "half circle forward? oh, sorry, that's ensenga :)" or, worse, "too slow, that's a regular heavy slash move :)". brother. why must you do me like this.

the area between the knuckles of my ring and little finger hurts like a motherfucker (though this has hurt in various areas since at least this morning, but i'm willing to bet that practicing quarter and half circle inputs for at least an hour did not make the situation any better)

Nevermind trying to figure out whether they're talking about flowers or one of the characters (the o in front of Hana actually makes that quite obvious, who'd've thunk it)

Are these little girls or are they young women? Are you talking about a dad or a husband? Which girl's perspective are we even dealing with here? Augh!
