I really like this website because somebody will be like โthereโs nothing wrong with darting out from behind a parked car into traffic, bootlickerโ and you can be like okay this clearly evolved from a valid point about how the US is too car-centric. But something happened to it.
If trench warfare were made-up, it would be the most on-the-nose anti-war satire ever created. Bunch of young men shooting at each other from inside open graves, slowly rotting even as they fight to stay alive. Every so often, they get to move a few hundred metres to dig a new grave for themselves somewhere else and this is called a victory.

reblog to reassure the next person who reads this that everything is going to be okay and itโs all going to get easier soon
"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there
"There is an impulse in moments like this to appeal to self-interest. To say: These horrors you are allowing to happen, they will come to your doorstep one day; to repeat the famous phrase about who they came for first and who they'll come for next. But this appeal cannot, in matter of fact, work. If the people well served by a system that condones such butchery ever truly believed the same butchery could one day be inflicted on them, they'd tear the system down tomorrow. And anyway, by the time such a thing happens, the rest of us will already be dead.
"No, there is no terrible thing coming for you in some distant future, but know that a terrible thing is happening to you now. You are being asked to kill off a part of you that would otherwise scream in opposition to injustice. You are being asked to dismantle the machinery of a functioning conscience. Who cares if diplomatic expediency prefers you shrug away the sight of dismembered children? Who cares if great distance from the bloodstained middle allows obliviousness. Forget pity, forget even the dead if you must, but at least fight against the theft of your soul."
Iโm reblogging this again. Omar El Akkad also wrote a novel called American War. The premise being that Americans will only care about things like the Arab Spring if it happens to them. The novel is a near future dystopia combining the climate destruction of America with a second civil war. His style is very readable. Iโd urge everyone to read it.
this site is so funny you sound evil
You can survive almost anything through the right combination of:
the united states of america has declared war on affordable goods
tomboyism is so funny to me. gender non-conformity for girls is acceptable for like two minutes between the ages of 8 and 10. beyond that itโs appalling and youโre a freak but for those two yearsโฆโฆ they couldโve had it all
It's so nice being on tumblr because you don't even have to make your own post but people would still follow you anyways if you're good at rebloging posts they like
if you have OCD that moralistic post it not about you. keep scrolling. i love you
yeah even the one that gave you that sinking terror and has you planning your penance behavior and going through your whole life trying to identify when you did whatever it said about prejudice or abuse or whatever. it's not about you they don't know you and they certainly don't care about you
love that solas wears no shoes. bald ass head bare ass feet
