yooo uhhh hihihi again uh
i cannot stop thinking about americA'S relationship w/ soviet after the whole. cold war thing. for me its like america thinks about soviet a lot more that others thinks he does and its not in the hatred/raging gamer way? sort of more chilledout/tired way? also do you have any headcanons for what happens to a countryhuman when they die? like any afterlife headcanons?
im sorry for the questions its just the lack of countryhumans media i recive these days 😭 the countrhyhumans fandom is literally dead
like, after the ussr dies? america doesnt think about the ussr much. he only mentions him if it's a talking point in an argument with russia, like ohh your father was so bad i bet youll be the same. when the cold war kinda simmered in the final few years america was.. cordial with the ussr at best. he kinda acted like nothing happened lol.

Please please please stop stalking your teachers... I have seen this kind of behavoir become more and more common among my friends: they laugh about funny things they find by searching up their teachers on social media and make fun of them. The outcome of this normalization is that doxxing teachers is now just a funny tiktok trend (not sure if it's from tiktok but yes, a teacher in my school had not just her full street address but her parents' street address written on the board by two different classes.)
You wouldn't want them doing that to you, so why are you doing this to them? Please please please give teachers their personal life and privacy back, and only look at the online presence they show to you. (For example, my dad has a blog which he enjoys having students read, which is very very different than searching up your teachers on Venmo and examining their personal financial interactions -- another thing someone I know has done.)

No disrespect intended, but can we please not have round the clock coverage of everything the death and transition of the British monarchy on US news networks? There’s a helluva lot more pressing events to give some coverage to. Like the inflation crisis and energy crisis here and in Europe. Real, everyday people are suffering--should they buy groceries or pay the electric bill. Should they put gas in their car so they can get to work, or try to keep up with their rent?
I’m praying for two things. First, that the British government gets a clue and subsidizes their citizens energy bills instead of throwing a lavish funeral and coronation. Tone it down, my dudes. PLEASE.
Second, that the American news networks suffer huge rating losses from obsessively covering this.

the Israelis have blinded us to Gaza by bombing the remaining tech infrastructure. We are seeing drastic falloffs in connectivity especially in the northern and central strip, where al-Shifa Hospital is located. They bombed near Shifa earlier this week, and if you go check Israeli social media right now they have already manufactured the justification to bomb Shifa Hospital. They are calling it 'Hamas HQ'. Over 50 thousand people are believed to be sheltering there, and it's one of the last medical centers with any capacity to function despite the fuel shortage as it is partly solar powered. We likely won't hear anything for the next few hours, and ground operations are likely to already be underway.
There's not much more to say at this point, and not much to do but pray. I'm sorry.

I feel like. Part of the reason we're seeing hot takes like "video games like Stardew Valley are bourgeoisie and you should feel bad for playing them" and "if any actor in a TV show even hints at supporting any part of Israel then we need to boycott that entire show" and stuff like that is.
Online activism does virtually nothing. It does virtually nothing, guys. You can reblog and repost stuff all day and it does nothing. And so there's this desperate need in people's minds to Do Something, but social media platforms have so thoroughly trapped us into the idea that This Is How You Connect With People, that we think blogging = activism.
But nothing we've reblogged thus far has made a significant difference in the world. So we keep reblogging, desperately, convinced that if we root out the real evil in our media consumption or if we pare down our beliefs to the One True Ideal and force everyone around us to share that ideal, then finally Something Will Change For The Better.
Log off. Go give blood; there's a critical shortage right now. Help someone in your community; it might not fix wars that are thousands of miles away but it'll help that person. Call or email your local representative about issues that matter to you. Fucking vote. Do something in the not-online space. It'll matter more than 100 posts in a row about Important Things.

Kia and Hyundai Owners Face Parts Shortage After 'Kia Challenge' Car Thefts
"Attention Kia and Hyundai owners: be aware of the 'Kia Challenge' viral trend leading to car thefts and a parts shortage. Stay vigilant and safe." #KiaChallenge #CarThefts #PartsShortage.
There is a recent “Kia Challenge” viral social media trend has led to a surge in car thefts, particularly of certain Kia and Hyundai models manufactured between 2011 and 2022 that lack anti-theft controls. Unfortunately, this has led to a shortage of parts for the stolen cars, making it difficult for affected owners to get their vehicles repaired.

Hey warning for everyone but especially Jews:
Hamas has threatened that they're gonna start posting graphic videos of their torture/murder of their Jewish hostages in the next few hours on social media. These will be very graphic and very distressing, so please be very careful on sites like Instagram and TikTok when scrolling through recommended videos. Please do not share these videos and photos, it is part of the terroristic strategy. Also, because unfortunately there is no shortage of antisemites on Tumblr, please be careful when sent a video or photo on anon or from a user you don't recognize. These are intended to induce horror, don't help Hamas spread their message.

Rafah is a massive shelter with children and elderly unable to evacuate
Feb 12th 2024, 00:15 GMT
Tareq Abu Azzoum, reporting from Rafah in southern Gaza Strip
The Israeli army has been saying that there’s no victory without invading Rafah and dismantling the military capabilities of Hamas movements here.
But the civilians here are very concerned and this has triggered wide-scale condemnation among different international organisations and states in the region about the disastrous potential consequences.
Specifically, right now Rafah has become a massive shelter for more than 1.9 million Palestinians.
Evacuation centres and makeshift camps have been established recently alongside the borders of Egypt, which will absolutely pose a new significant threat also for Egyptian national security.
And let’s be very aware about the dangerous humanitarian catastrophe that will result if that military incursion happens, specifically among children and among elderly people who are unable to easily evacuate the city as Israel has claimed.
What is happening in Gaza’s Rafah as Israel threatens to attack?
Feb 12th 2024, 00:30 GMT
More than a million Palestinians are trapped at Gaza’s southernmost point, with the Israeli army preparing a ground attack.
But what is Rafah and what are the details around this announced Israeli “operation”?
Palestinian Rafah is 64sq km (25sq miles) and, as Israel assaulted Gaza these past four months, more and more people have been herded into it by Israeli forces who keep promising safety “further south” – which never materialised.
People are in dense clusters in the limited space not filled with debris or being bombed by Israel. Conditions are dire, with severe shortages.

We’ll bring you more on this breaking story soon.
