"I would kill for you. I would die for you" would you take a break for me? Would you sit down and rest? For a day, a week, a year? Would you let others take care of your needs for me? Would you let yourself be held for me? By me?
drives me up a wall living in a very very red district, like “no democrat is ever going to win any local election, let alone a real leftist” district, like “our school board members ran on who was the most anti-mask” red, like “I pass white supremacist signs on the way to buy weed” red
and being in the local leftist community and the guy who runs the anarchist book club and the lady who helps keep the warming shelters open and the people who marched on city hall when a local business was getting death threats for having a drag show are all members of a discord and we get on this discord and have frank discussions about how best to vote
the people who do the protests and the mutual aid and all the real work
going “okay, they’re both fascists, but this one lacks ambition and seems happy to just glide in the position” or “they both suck, but this one can be reasoned with if you frame it patriotically enough” like we don’t even have a democrat to vote for. we know what a vote is. we know what we hope accomplish with it. we know what it can do, and we know what it can’t.
and going from those discussions to here where people think that your vote is some kind of fucking??? enabling maneuver??? as if someone isn’t going to end up in that seat regardless of what you do???
we didn’t build this system, we just live in it. we’re just trying to survive. a vote isn’t a statement of your values, it’s not an endorsement, it’s not a marriage contract, it’s a strategic play you make to keep alive.
the biggest mistake I see leftists making is overestimating their own popularity. “well but everyone would be leftist if they just-“ no, stop, 1) you can’t possibly know that 2) everyone will not just
Please for the love of GOD stop thinking about voting as if it’s an endorsement, or that playing the electoral politics game by withholding a vote will ever get you anywhere. Voting is a a tool. When you vote, you are choosing your enemy. Democrats are a less formidable enemy. It’s that simple. Biden’s NLRB has given huge wins to the labor movement, also known as the only realistic force for liberation we have available to us (which will include ending genocide). Stop making it harder for everyone just so you can feel some bs moral superiority. Tell them you’re not gonna vote for them, make them look as bad and evil as possible. But as a simple practical matter, why the fuck would you risk letting things get objectively worse? Fixing this rotten country will take a long time, and any time republicans gain power they use it to roll back another ten years of progress. Why lay down and let openly criminal fascists ransack the country during this crucial time for the planet? You can say there’s no difference between them, but the republicans are just vastly more dangerous. We can’t afford to go any further right than we already are. Electoral politics is a distraction from real political organizing, but forfeiting your ability to set more favorable rules of the game (i.e. by keeping the worst of the worst out of power) is a foolish and self-defeating strategy.
genocide joe and the democratic party do not give one single shit about how you feel voting for him or if you think he is the lesser evil. every strident social media post and attendance at a protest and deep seated personal convictions and letter to your congressman are adults from charlie brown going Bwa Bwa Bwa to them. you speak one language they can hear and that's the ballot box. & if you vote for genocide joe, what they'll hear is "it doesn't matter how much the left whines, we can openly salivate for genocide and they'll still vote for us." if this doesn't lose them votes it is a green light for every democratic candidate in the future to take the exact same stance, forever. how can anyone who claims to care about electoral politics not understand that

funny post however you referred to a neurotransmitter as a 1:1 determinant of a certain mood or affective state so i shan't be reblogging
see and be seen
a couple of parts from kendall’s tvtropes page that leave me aching
LET THE LIGHT IN
festen as inspiration for succession makes total sense and i've heard so much said about succession's style, but to me, these deliberate zoom-ins, the messy handheld mock doc type stuff, it all conveys a desperation to capture the moment as it is, since the present is the only reality, since the past as a rule is always ambiguous and unreal. a home movie but (like festen) the parts that are very unfortunately happening right now. the past has and can be rewritten but what actually takes place in succession as we see it cannot be refuted because we're witnesses. our participation is definitely a part of this. and the camera knows all of this, its work enhances this sense of fleetingness. there's such a sense of now, of presentness because the present is all we have to make sense of in this story.

got your stupid ass. this is a gnome post. give me all the fucking berries right now
Welp, methinks thats enough internet for today
- me after watching a deepfake of myself being tortured for 6 hours
What do you guys think Roman’s screenplay was about?
I really can’t decide what genre it would be, what the themes would be, etc. Like, I think he definitely has it within himself to write something funny and biting.. I know the show implies through Kendall that it was bad, and it would definitely be more in line with the tone if it was, but Roman’s got a real emotional intelligence/self awareness that I think could be interesting in a creative work.
If Jesse were to decide, he’d probably say it was something like that new Ben Shapiro trite Lady Ballers.. but this is the same guy who said Roman will have friends to go to after the finale which is like ?? have you watched your own show? So I guess I’m just curious, in a death-of-the-author sense, what the Roman community can cook up about our favorite emotionally stunted boy
Mommy needs you to smoke the whole cigarette so you grow up big and strong, ok sweetie?
and i think to myself. what a wonderful world
six moths since the succession final btw, six months since i’m the eldest boy, six months since i love you but i cannot fucking stomach you, six months since the walmart colorblock boys t-shirt, six months since meal fit for a king, since months since kisses boys on molly, six months since the stitch rip. six months since real television.

HE'S DEAD????
🏫 student-council-president follow
The Examiner just confirmed it. They're saying it was an hiking accident. He went in the woods near college for a walk and fell down the ravine... It was a girl with her dog who found him the other day when the snow had melted and she called the police. Broken neck and everything...
🔍 truecrimeenjoyer63 follow
You still believe it was an hiking accident? lmao come on. There's clearly something else behind this. Not to mention NONE of his friends have ever spoken about it or anything. Ain't that suspicious for anyone else? They have to know something.
🏫 student-council-president follow
Stop using his death as an excuse to start fights and get clout omg... You people are horrible. Maybe let's not make assumptions on things we know nothing about and just be respectful towards him and the people grieving???? The police will take care of it it's literally not your business

Not the same discourse again... No one cares about your opinion on them. He died. TWO of them died. And you're here speculating on them and still treating the whole thing as a joke?? Gross.
🏔️ mount-cataract follow
no fr y'all did the same with bunny corcoran when he went missing and now you're doing it again... i don't care if you didn't like them i mean they were kind of weird but... at least just try to be a decent human being in front of an actual tragedy. all you people should be ashamed of yourselves.

Semi-motivational quotes from Hayao Miyazaki
somehow, amazingly, i have hacked the impulse that makes me mindlessly scroll on my phone. it's not gone but i've paired it with a conscious thought process that goes like, "what's my goal here? i'm looking for entertainment, for information, for something that makes me feel more optimistic and interested in the world i live in..."
and because that kicks in between apps, too, i'm not doomscrolling as much. i'm intentionally seeking out posts or videos or whatever that actually mean something to me. when i'm not satisfied i walk away or pick up a book instead. most subtle yet impactful change i've gone through in years
i did not intentionally set out to change this. i've just been working on my mindset in general. hey, turns out having a good therapist again helps
