i like snakes and a free palestine

aside from the aforementioned affection towards snakes, i also hold a great deal of fondness in my heart for hollow knight (i am extremely normal™ about collector), rain world (miros birds are the best creature i will not be accepting criticism on this), command and conquer red alert 2 (kirov reporting), in stars and time (one must imagine sisyphus stuck in a time loop), and about a million other things.
i played through slay the princess and spent the whole game pretty much completely ignoring her in favor of dicking around with the narrator (there is no good ending because the narrator always dies) and the voices (contrarian is the best one), which probably says a lot about me (i am aromantic asexual (this will not stop me from rebugging horny™ shit that i am tangentially interested in)).
fuck it i'm a girl now (still he/they tho)
i also like to draw and make games & shit.

i think the worst part about "internet activism" is people who share the worst pieces of news possible and don't have anything to say besides "we're fucked" or "we're so cooked lmao"

shut up

shut the fuck up

it literally does nothing to actually positively affect things (no ideas for a plan forward, no call to action), and tanks morale. stop doing it!

yep

I personally think incredibly vague calls for too-risky-for-anyone-to-actually-be-willing-to-start violent revolution type stuff is just as bad. So much "we're so cooked burn it all down" instead of actually thinking through the sorts of things that can have an effect

(Maybe because said actionable things are bureaucratic and not romantic, like campaigning in local elections)

It's especially infuriating, because we all (should) know that that's almost always the point of the actions in the news. The people out there making society worse do it to make you feel helpless, so that you'll accept their extremist non-solutions. The scale doesn't matter, from organized crime in local neighborhoods to national political parties subverting courts, they want you to trust people less and consider joining their nonsense as a legitimate route forward...

I imagine these people as Doomguy in that one comic where he turns out to be the demon for realsies except instead of "rip and tear" they say "post and share"
