I genuinely feel like I’m going insane sometimes
everything should cost one dollar, ten dollars, or one hundred dollars. a drinky drink is one dollar. a t shirt is ten dollars. rent is one hundred. i might be convinced to allow one thousand dollars for some very big purchases like a house. i get it, you're running a business. i'm not unreasonable.
firefox just started doing this too so remember kids if you want to stream things like netflix or hulu over discord without the video being blacked out you just have to disable hardware acceleration in your browser settings!
if i ever had a yoga channel i think i would just put the minecraft soundtrack behind it
genuine actual question for you, my intention isn't to start drama with this ask.
what do you propose we as Americans do?
not voting for Biden will basically ensure Trump and the conservatives win the election, which will be MUCH MUCH worse for the global south, as well as America, as you said in your last post answering an ask.
what do we do to stop this from happening, because as Americans, our only options are Biden or whatever Republican runs this year, probably Trump.
i don't think trump will be "much worse" for the global south, and frankly anyone who says that conservatives will be worse for the global south hasn't been paying attention. maybe in 2020 i would've agreed, but this is what i've been telling you about the past three months. the world has changed. joe biden will never recover his standing in the middle east. no president has been worse for us than joe biden. so don't pretend you are concerned about the global south in general.
its okay to admit trump will be worse for local politics but let's be clear: if trump had overseen this genocide you would have been frothing at the mouth for him to go to the hague. and now you want to deny us the right to say biden is a war criminal who should be at the hague because you're scared of trump. that's okay! its okay to be scared of a worse option. but you can't ask us to lie to you about it, because that option is worse for you, not us.
you as americans should make sure biden knows his chances of re-election are getting worse the longer this genocide goes on and israel escapes justice. you should make sure he knows it's in his own best interest that israel faces the ICJ and that netanyahu, his government, and the leaders of the IDF face the ICC.
i don't know the best way to do that out of the dozens of things people are already doing in america every day—i know if everyone was polling like 18-29 voters, democrats would not be so quick to approve aid to israel and call a genocide trial at the hague 'meritless.' if more americans were openly saying they draw the line at voting for a war criminal regardless of trump (as most arab american and muslim american voters are), i think biden would call for a ceasefire pretty quick.
but what i do know is that stating 'vote blue no matter who' won't stop the genocide. it might not even save the election. there's quite a few key demographics who will be voting 3rd party now because they cannot stomach voting for biden or democrats anymore. these are not people who will be won over by 'trump is worse.' trump is worse for them before he's worse for you, so what does it mean about biden that people still won't vote for him despite it? again—it's your own bad luck he's the one who oversaw a genocide.
democrats believe by november people will have forgotten the genocide so they're letting it go on. they have openly stated this; that's how little they think of their constituents and of palestinians. when you say "as americans our only options are between trump and biden" you're letting me know you're not seeing the present but are fixated on the future. a genocide and an election are two separate events. you have plenty of options to stop the genocide right now, hundreds of thousands of people across america have been taking them daily, and none of them involve trump.
it's january. you are asking me how biden can win an election when you haven't stopped the genocide. there is a hospital being attacked in khan younes right now as we speak. as an american, your concern should not be the election. your concern should be the genocide.
many people think the election is a detriment for israel's plans and will eventually force biden to de-escalate. three months in, i have to disagree. biden is using his election as a bludgeon to continue the genocide. every "vote blue no matter who" post is a "genocide is fine!! keep going!" post. every campaign for joe biden right now is simply approval of genocide. it is impossible to avoid that. liberals who try to convince people to vote for a war criminal in an on-going genocide are complicit. its not our fault biden's campaign is synonymous with genocide, its his own.
it's in your own best interest not to make genocide a forgivable crime for a president. how he can possibly make up for it in time for the november, this i don't know. there are already some voters he's lost forever. but in order to campaign for biden, he should have at least stopped fucking killing kids. you can argue about the merits of trump vs biden when the election is here, but you can't make that argument until you actually stop the genocide.
Masterlist for all Welcome Home theories/analyses made by me!
For anyone new, I have to warn you that I personally like to think I may be reaching too far in some of these, so take this with a grain of salt should you decide to read it! This is all just for fun and none of this may even be remotely accurate guesses to the plot whatsoever!
I also wanted to mention, this space is made for those of you who are focused on the actual plotline of Welcome Home and genuinely want to discuss things as opposed to fanart, OC's, and all of that! Those things are delightful and all, but this is a blog where the actual storyline is examined! So for anyone looking for that, you have found the place!

cute ways to remind your boyfriend that your birthday is coming up and you would like to spend your special day with him by exploiting your local watering hole’s insane “get your age in free [food item] on your birthday” promotion:
Start small, not only because it'll be simpler, but because buying larger panels is actually cheaper than making them. Pearce recommends a good starting project would be a smaller panel, enough to power, say, a water pump for your yard. This way, you can practice your soldering skills and familiarize yourself with the materials.
