It's actually crazy how Kill la Kill shouts at the top of its lungs how it's ABOUT FASCISM right from the get-go and this is like the least discussed aspect of the series, because people are much more interested in arguing about all the nudity. Honnouji Academy is a microcosm of a fascist state. Those who pledge loyalty to the regime and spread its influence are given rewards and a better standard of living, and all the while a lower class is maintained so the upper classes have someone to look down on, distracting them from the system's oppression. The show is not subtle at all about its intermingling of school systems and the military, or how the students take pride in being part of a greater whole. The very first scene of the first episode literally opens on a history lesson about Hitler. It's soooo not subtle.

“Do it scared” but please realize that, if you Do It Scared too much and don’t let yourself rest + relax + have fun in between, you will fuck yourself up. If you “do it scared” all day every day, you will burn out badly and quickly. Sometimes this is temporarily necessary but please keep this in mind.

When you “do it scared” eventually you’re supposed to be less scared, eventually doing it scared is supposed to teach you the worst won’t happen, or it won’t be as bad as you think it is, or that the best outcomes are worth it, or you’re more capable than you thought you were. If you do it scared over and over and you’re still scared and you’re always scared, maybe it was never about pushing yourself, maybe something bigger is going on and what you really need is to be kind to yourself while you figure out what that is.

A compilation of FFXIV sillies I sketched this month

If the right way is too hard, fuck it. Do it the wrong way.

Folding clothes keeps you from getting the laundry done? Stop folding clothes. Put a basket in your room and throw your unfolded clean stuff into it right out of the dryer, it's fine.

Rinsing dishes off keeps you from loading the dishwasher? Load them dirty and run it twice.

Chopping onions keeps you from making yourself dinner? Buy the freezer bags of chopped onions.

You forget to take your meds and don't want to get out of bed to get them? Start putting them next to the bed.

Can't keep up with the dishes? Get paper plates. Worried about environment impact? Order biodegradable ones online if your local store doesn't have one.

Make the task easier. Put things where you use them instead of where they "go." Eliminate the steps that keep you from finishing the task. Eliminate the task that is stressing you out.

Do it the "wrong" way. It's literally fine.

Seeing tumblr users tag their blorboposts with "gay panic" is making me insane. This term does not mean what you all think it means.

Gay Panic Wikipedia page: The gay panic defense or homosexual advance defence is a victim blaming strategy of legal defense, which refers to a situation in which a heterosexual individual charged with a violent crime against a homosexual (or bisexual) individual claims they lost control and reacted violently because of an unwanted sexual advance that was made upon them. A defendant will use available legal defenses against assault and murder, with the aim of seeking an acquittal, a mitigated sentence, or a conviction of a lesser offense. A defendant may allege to have found the same-sex sexual advances so offensive or frightening that they were provoked into reacting, were acting in self-defense, were of diminished capacity, or were temporarily insane, and that this circumstance is exculpatory or mitigating.ALT

tags: I feel like through (hopefully) ignorance there's been a semantic shift on the internet the last few years so I think a lot of people genuinely just Do Not Know what gay panic actually means. However it, uh, kind of important to know.ALT

I am also pretty sure it's ignorance in 99% of cases. But. Please understand. That captioning something "gay panic" has deeply dark implications.

babe you are implying he's about to commit a hatecrime

tag: thinking about that gay water vodka soda thingALT

Waking up to that image is in fact what sent me down this path

brightly colored boxed vodka soda called "gay water." the marketing is criminally stupidALT
cutesy purple polaroid sticker that says "gay panic" in rainbow lettersALT

they are selling alcohol with this cutesy sticker design. fuck, man

People in the comments: lol didn't you know 'gay' used to mean 'happy'? Language changes, why would you want to stop this phrase from having a positive meaning

Places in the USA where Gay Panic is still a legally admissable defense for homicide:

Wikipedia map of US states that have bans or are considering bans on the gay panic or trans panic defense. About 30 states have no bans.ALT

I can't tell you how to tag your fanart. But if you read the tags, tons of people had no idea 'gay panic' had any alternate meaning, and I think if this were me I would want to know. This is not an outdated term and I'm sorry but some of you are being fucking stupid about this.

Was there ever a news event in our lifetimes that the media fumbled more aggressively than Columbine. They genuinely got every single detail wrong

From reporting that they killed someone for saying she believed in God (a different girl who said she did survived) to not reporting that they sought out students of color while yelling racial slurs - on Hitler's birthday & a day after the anniversary of OKC and Waco - while promoting the idea that you have to watch out for loner bullied nerds. Even though later research shows that the shooters were, in fact, bullies themselves, who had a wide social circle, and they were, you know, Nazis motivated by racism and not the video game Doom (1993).

It's a generational fuck-up, the GOAT of bad reporting bc it's still with us. The narrative of persecution after "she said yes" is a huge reason the evangelical right is like how it is today (they made a biopic that uncritically repeated it just a couple years ago!) & they still push the idea that it's primarily victims who do that sort of thing and not aggressors & people still shared that stupid video of Marilyn Manson saying he'd "listen" until a couple years ago (though the shooters being abusive Nazi creeps would uh, not diminish Marilyn Manson's desire to befriend them, I feel)

Thinking about this again and the other fundamental fuck up was the media reporting on Columbine as a shooting, when in fact they planned it as a bombing and only started shooting people when their bombs failed to go off.

Which isn't a minor mistake to make bc so much of the coverage was based on the idea it was targeted: that they targeted Christian students or that they had a list of bullies to kill. But obviously if their plan was to just blow up everything, that doesn't make any sense. Basically every aspect of it - from the conservative persecution narrative to the revenge narrative to just about everything else claimed in the aftermath of the attack - falls apart when you realize they were truly just aiming to indiscriminately murder people. Which we've known since 1999 but which doesn't stop people from making movies about how they were definitely hunting people who believed in God, and giving interviews where they say they would've Listened
