Spoilers on the movie Chinatown follow:

Jake Gittes was an honourable man. He was a man with a conscience. He had a choice to do "as little as possible" but he didn't. He couldn't just stand by and let history repeat itself. He had done as little as possible then, as a police officer, but now as a detective he wouldn't repeat the same mistake.

No, this time, he did everything. He stepped forward. He ruffled feathers. He spoke the truth. He sent a big FUCK YOU to every single person that tried to silence him and terrorise him. He defied the status quo. He wanted to crush the wheel. He wanted to break the cycle of systemic corruption and abuse. He had a plan. He tried to protect the innocent, the tortured, the forgotten. And Jake Gittes ended up losing every single thing that he held dear. The people he wanted to protect ended up dead and the abusers found a new victim, as a direct result of his actions. "As little as possible" he whispers when he sees her lifeless body, blood running down her cheeks as that monster was taking her underage daughter away, her daughter that now took her place in the neverending cycle of abuse, her daughter that was screaming in terror like a wounded animal, utterly helpless, while the police stood by, condoning, enabling. As little as possible. If he had done as little as possible none of this would have happened. But he just had to be that person who spoke the truth.

Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown.

He should have known that he would find no justice there, in Chinatown of Los Angeles. They had told him, but he hadn't listened. Now the Chinese immigrants were slowly gathering to look at the horror, dumbstruck, confounded, their tired faces frozen with a mix of shock and confusion. The police is shouting now "Come on, clear the area! On the sidewalk! Get off the street!" and the camera moves upwards as they retreat en masse like sheep, scared and powerless and dehumanised, their bodies turning into shadows in the dark corners of the streets of Chinatown.

'Cause here it doesn't matter if you're the heroic American private detective Jake Gittes or a scared, impoverished, faceless immigrant. You don't matter either way. You can't change a thing and you will never know the truth. The city swallows you whole and spits you out.

Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown.

Sometimes I tell myself that too, when I feel so angry and so helpless in my little Chinatown where I live, where we all live.

With the Reddit 3rd party app crackdown and the ongoing horseshit Elon Musk is pulling with "X", I realize a lot of people here might be pretty new. So I put together a quick and easy guide for using Tumblr for anyone new who might need it.

Tumblr was made by David Karp and we call him Daddy around these parts (^///^)

You are not safe from fandom-gif attacks ( •̀ ω •́ )✧

Speaking of fandoms, the tumblr fandoms are always ready to grab their [object] and go to war against the Beliebers ╰(*°▽°*)╯

The only safe refuge from fandom tumblr is with hipster tumblr. If you can get a cool alt-girl to take you under her wing, you might be safe... for now (●'◡'●)

You will watch the first episode of Supernatural... and then you're part of the Winchester family. (Or if you skip right to season 4, we don't blame you. It's where Destiel starts (*/ω＼*))

This is not a glomp-free zone ☆*: .｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆

Use missing e. It's the only way to make Tumblr useable on Internet Explorer (this is the most popular browser and you're probably using it right now) :-D

Our only adult-supervision is John Green... and even then does that REALLY count as supervision? DFTBA! φ(゜▽゜*)♪

Just this once, everyone lives. It's bigger on the inside. Elementary, my dear Watson.

If you see Misha Collins staring at you, the polite response is "Saving people, hunting things, the family business." O.O

I might lose followers for this, but this blog supports gay rights, and yours should too (14 gifs of Sherlock and The Hobbit)

Tumblr will teach you more about the world than you'll ever learn in school. ○( ＾皿＾)っ

Tread carefully... we have teh yaoiz O.o. Oh you don't know what that means? Well let's just say... it's full of lemons here.

If you see Hannibal Lector in a flower crown, tell him it looks very nice. His boyfriend Will Graham made it for him. (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

Do not enter the dog park. The dog park will not harm you.

too many dreams cut short 🍉

bashar is just one of many palestinians you can help continue their lives, dreams, futures, but time is running out and every second counts.

please support him here

life is tiring and hard, so please lets do what we can to take care of each other. RT, share, talk, draw, boycott - do whatever is accessible to you!

Hobie should have a little old lady who adores him

US folks, tomorrow (December 7, 2023) the senate is going to vote on sending $14.3 billion more in funding for Israel. (It’s a huge funding bill for “defense funding” for many things, but they also included more funding for ICE in the bill). Please take 2 minutes to use this action tool to call your reps and demand they vote no to more funding for Israel

And please share this action tool with 3 people you know. You can literally copy-paste this post to them if you don’t know what to say

ATTENTION EVERYONE.

GO READ THIS POST I JUST.. POSTED

KOSA is NOT being pushed through or voted on tomorrow as far as we know, but STILL CALL IN ON MONDAY IF YOU CAN.

MONDAY IS THE DAY THE SENATE COMES BACK FROM RECESS.

imagine if Cal and Kanan met after the Purge

i like the headcanon that they were bros back in padawan days, messing around and giving a headache to everyone in the temple c::

The CDC is trying to limit the new COVID booster to only people 75+, pregnant people, and the immunocompromised.

We have two days (as of September 6th, 2023) to let them know this isn't acceptable.

(since there is some lack of visual comprehension in the comments, each picture has the link to the tweet just under the picture)

Under this first tweet is the link directly to the article Laurie put in her tweet and is quoting.

For those of you getting mad at me in the comments and reblogs: saying vaccination is only recommended for groups IS a way to try to prevent people from getting vaccinated because EVERYONE NEEDS THE VACCINE! Everyone needs to know they should get the vaccine!

It's not that hard to figure that out.

Dr. Eric Feigl-Ding did the original reporting on this. I put a link to his thread in one of the reblogs, and I'm not going to be your Google beyond saying that. Go to his Twitter. Go check out Friesein's tweet thread.

URGENT!!!!

The House is voting on banning Tiktok TOMORROW. If you dont use tiktok and dont care, consider that this will open the gateway to banning ANY APP the govt disagrees with.

Please, CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND SPREAD THE NEWS EVERYWHERE ASAP!!

It's good and cool to give your characters a single simple, straightforward, non-urgent, super-achievable goal that shouldn't really cost anything or hurt anyone, make that the driving factor for most of their decisions, and then have the Plot do everything in its power to stop them.
