i did a mini rant about it on twitter, but i want, and need, to say this here as well
it is sickening to see all media everywhere parrot israeli propaganda and lies while actively ignoring what they are doing to palestine, but especially so seeing it all being done just as much in germany, it feels even more personal bc shouldnt WE be the ones MOST critical of anyone enacting genocide?? a lesson to take from our awful, shitty, horrific history isnt we cannot criticize jewish people ever at all but that genocide is BAD
its seems like they are afraid of being called antisemitic by some people who dont know shit about whats going on so much so that theyd rather support a full blown genocide of 2 MILLION people, and it just
it scares me
i feel like a stranger in my own home, im avoiding news on radio and TV bc it feels like they are trying to brainwash me to cheer for the oppressors; we were responsible for a 5+ million genocide and now the media and politicians want us to support one of 2 million more??? what the fuck???
"well there are some evil people in this country we have been colonizing for years, guess we are gonna have to wall the entire region off so noone can leave and kill every single human life there, sorry, we had no other choice, dont look at us openly bragging about pulverizing a hospital filled to the brim with people seeking shelter from our 6000 mega bombs we dropped within a few days on this region, then calling palestinians 'children of darkness' and us the 'children of light', delete those posts, then change who we want to blame it on every few minutes bc people are starting to see through our lies, but dont you see? the bad people could have been anywhere, we had to, that hospital wasnt the first and wont be the last tho, so sad uwu"
how insane do you have to be to hear that and go "ah yes, that is very logical and justified and totally not obvious lies, heres a billion of currency and a metric fuckton of weapons to kill them all more efficiently, have fun and good luck"
?????????
if you think supporting palestine and wanting isreal to stop bombing them means you automatically support hamas you have no fucking idea what you are talking about actually and you need to educate yourself right about now, urgently
if you think the acts of one terror organisation represent an entire country and thus everyone living in it deserves to die for it, what the fuck is wrong with you there definitely are some horrible fascist, violent cults in the US, there absolutely are some in germany as well, do they represent the entire population of either countries and thus every single thing alive within its borders needs to die horrificly???
why did i have to sit in school trying not to cry my eyes out looking at fotos of piles of tortured, dead people, visit whats left over from concentration camps with all its looming feeling of doom, not even being able to stomach going into the building itself bc it made me want to vomit just being there and learn about every sickening detail of our awful history when im now here seeing and hearing it all over again, but this time im supposed to cheer for the oppressors?
i am appalled of so many countries being so complicit in supporting yet another genocide, but i am especially ashamed of my own. again.
free palestine.
It has been hard for me to talk about how what is going on with Israel and Palestine is affecting me personally, but I grew up in Gaza and most of my family still lives there. My father did not survive the bombings last week and I have not been able to contact my younger sister in days. I am try to being understanding that most people do not have personal connections to what is happening and therefore are justifying their silence, but is heartbreaking to see this misinformation being spread. What’s happening there is a genocide, not a war. It is not antisemitic to support Palestine, it’s not even antiemetic to criticise Israel. There is no grey area or neutrality regarding this, and it is so easy to find resources that will educate you on the subject. It is my people and my home being destroyed so I will never be silent about this, but I please urge everyone to get informed and start speaking up and finding ways they can help.
decolonizepalestine has tons of information on Palestine’s history/propaganda that has been spread throughout the years
UK citizens can email their MP asking for a ceasefire
US citizens can call/email their local government officials asking for a ceasefire
Jewish Voice for Peace also has many resources for ways for US citizens to get involved, including protests
Donate to Palestine Children’s Relief Fund
Donate to Medical Aid for Palestine
Donate to help get food and hygiene kits to Gaza
some stranger things twitter edits! 😊💖
Obsessing over #steddie has me trying to figure out their Pokemon teams for a crossover sketch
Like sweet lord, I do this every time I cling to new characters, just makes me understand them better. Like Eddie having an amped-up Toxtricity, or Steve having a Primarina, just because they make sense with the characters.
IDK, chat me up if yall have ideas too

Listen motherfucker okay the idea of the popular former jock and the punk metal kid actually getting to know each other and falling love has so much potential to be so amazing. Will we realistically get this? Probably not. Should we? Yeah. Will I be harassing creators, actors, or other people who just ship something different? No.

DAILYSTRANGERTHINGS BIRTHDAY WEEK day six: favorite outfits
this is way too small to be put in a full gifset but
eddie getting jumpscared by robin and robin stopping to (seemingly) apologize
I live in a real world with my sorrows in tow. Ching Yeh
CHrIsT, the homosexual yearning is unbearable
I felt like this guy in high school, it’s excruciating the level of adoration I have for him
😀 I just think he’s neat 😀

This is why I need fanfiction. Every shiny new character that gives me gender euphoria fucking DIES and I need to fix it.
CHAPTER NINE: THE PIGGYBACK ⮑ Stranger Things 4
As Bed Bath and Above, so Bed Bath and Below
Once again, I will fully endorse reading fics by @palmviolet as well.
Sub-Culture was a work of love from how it reads, with inserts of culture and crisis of the time period, really getting a feel for it.
The Lathe has been absolutely crushingly painful to read, but I’ll still go to it again and again like a moth to a flame, despite feeling like an emotional masochist when I do.
Prepare for your hearts to crumble, and stay hydrated.
steddie fic recs pls!
YES YES THANK YOU get ready i have a LOT
chelsea by randomascas is a popular one, but for good reason. ft background ronance, tragic eddie backstory and steve being on the brink of death yet again. canon compliant excluding volume 2 (which i suggest we do <3)
the backseat lovers by froggieyama doesnt have a plot, but god does it describe their love in such a beautiful, lovely way
whole lotta love by @stereobone is such a quintessential steddie fic. steve and eddie are dating. steve does not realise they're dating. i love my bi himbo king. (this one is explicit, but honestly i don't think the sex is all that graphic and it is just one part, so read at your own discretion)
you got me running like a hurricane by @anniebibananie is the ultimate fix it, in which eddie doesn't actually 100% die in the upside down and instead finds his soul tethered to steve. basically. this one's very sweet, whilst also having a tiny bit of angst to make you go "ouch"
keep me in your glow by birthdaycandles ( @steveharrington ) is very nice. eddie helps take care of steve post volume 1, which apparently includes doing steve's skincare because of course it does. they're so cute
we're just kids in the dark by fagurfiskur ( @perlukafarinn ) is the fruity four sleepover fic of my dreams. nancy brings tequila, eddie brings pot, steve gets his hair braided and everyone has a fun gay time. also shotgunning!!
L is for linoleum (and nothing else) by localman ( @locallmann ) is a heavy one, i'll admit, but i cannot recommend it enough. there is an unfortunate lack of trans eddie in fanfics currently, and i feel this one does a really good job of realistically representing both his and the others' struggles as queer teens in the 80s. see individual chapter notes + the fic tags for tws, but i seriously implore you to read this if you're comfortable
sir stephen strider find his suzie by @lesbianrobin is VERY very cute. steve fills in for lucas during hellfire, and dustin witnesses steve and eddie flirting like crazy during the campaign. honestly, this one made me giggle a lot, and i left it feeling all warm and nice. the way the author writes steve and dustin's relationship just DOES IT for me because it feels so natural and so them. also dustin's little spiral about maybe being homophobic has been on my mind since i read this. god i love it.
another one by lesbianrobin - my hands are tied may be my favourite steddie fic to date. there's a Lot of steddie handcuff sex stuff on ao3 and whilst i DO love it unashamedly, this fic is just. so good and so realistic because YEAH duh steve would probably associate bondage with his trauma and have a panic attack why is nobody else thinking of this. i really really Really love this fic (JUST TO CLARIFY THIS IS RATED TEEN!! no sex dw)
you are going to die in your best friend's arms. (but he won't let you leave like that) by oaseas is so so SO SO good. it follows dustin as he becomes unstuck in time on the day that eddie died and tries over and over to save him and break the loop. it has some absolutely wonderful bonding moments between dustin and both steve & eddie, and whilst the steddie is not the Primary focus we do see dustin slowly realise just how deeply the two care about each other as he goes through each loop. i absolutely adored this fic, and genuinely felt emotional at times. highly highly recommend
last but not least, a sign of the morning by @toedenandbackagain . this is a LONG fic (86.8k!!! love), and just such a good slow burn friends to lovers. i love when fics include steddie having history pre vecna, but often find it cheesy or unrealistic. this, however, i felt was completely believable and very well written. i was reading this as each update dropped and let me tell you the way my heart sunk at the end of chapter 11?? i was going absolutely insane i was so upset and so affected, and really i think that's telling of how well written this fic is. cannot recommend it enough
i could probably keep going, but i think 11 recs is good for now lmao. please please check all these out and support the authors!! steddie writers on ao3 are the backbone to society atm they're doing some incredible work
Ya’ll better get to writing those apocalypse fanfics, I’m chompin’ at the BIT for some good ANGSTY FUN
And he’s not going to stop. Ever. Not until he’s taken everything. And everyone.
STRANGER THINGS 4 S04E09 | “The Piggyback”
dont play defense
this is the funniest god damn thing ive ever seen
I legitimately feel sick to my stomach when I read shit like this. Joseph is a human being, just like the rest of us. Sure, we’re allowed to feel emotions seeing his performances, feel excitement when we see him in public, but for FUCK’S SAKE, leave the man alone!
It’s garbage like stalking and harassment that makes good actors want to stop being social, stop acting. Ya’ll did the same thing to Finn Wolfhard, who was a minor when he started acting. A MINOR. Regardless of the age of the person, can we all STOP being monsters towards the people we admire? These folks have a hard enough job of keeping public faces amidst the people in the industry, let alone clamoring fans who resemble piranhas instead of supporters.
Treat human beings like human beings, regardless of their status or public face. I’d like to experience the slow death of the planet with at least some happiness and comradery, thanks.
i just want to get this straight
joe basically became famous overnight on may 27 after the volume 1 of season 4 of stranger things dropped, right?
in the eight weeks since then, people have:
found his spotify and followed him, prompting him to make all of his playlists private
allegedly leaked his address and email (i haven’t seen any proof and i don’t want to since that’ll mean seeing them for myself, so i’m just taking people’s word on this one)
allegedly turned up at his house???
apparently weirded his dad out enough that he made his twitter private
filmed him from a distance while he was out with a woman
posted videos of an alleged dating profile of his
stalked the facebook profiles of his family and friends in order to find photos of him from the ages of like 12-20 and then post them all over tiktok
a teenager in another country stole the photos of a girl who met him at london comic con and accused him of sexual assault
and this is all without even getting into him being overbooked by hundreds of people at his first convention. all of this stuff is from people who claim to be fans of his. why the fuck would anyone want to be famous or interact with people who claim to like them when this is what happens in the space of two months
Watching this little fucker on Netflix got my brain on fire, been roped into a nostalgia wave, really missing the things I grew up with. Growing up queer in a queer household gave me the opportunity to see gems like Jeffrey, To Wong Foo, Priscilla (Queen of the Desert), Nowhere (a Gregg Araki film, wonderfully dingy and insane). I really miss those days like a child misses summer.
If you haven’t heard of it, go watch Jeffrey! It’s a wonderful queer comedy about Manhattan in the height of the AIDs crisis, and the title character’s journey to accept things about himself despite his fears of breaking his self-imposed celibacy.

I don't understand how people who believe in a kind of hell (and that people are/should be eternally damned there) can resolve the fact that, since we live finite lives, we can only do a finite amount of sin/wrongdoing. To me at least, infinite punishment for finite wrongdoing is unjust. You could perhaps resolve this by saying some sins are infinitely wrong, but there doesn't seem to be a justification for that. Another consequence of infinite punishment is that all sins are treated equally: if eternal damnation is truely infinite, then everyone who is eternally damned has equivalent punishment. I guess fundamentally I don't understand moral absolutism. I'm just curious how people think about things like this.
