You can only reblog this today.
Reminder that when you break the law, cops come and drag you to jail. When oligarchs and their minions break the law, several lawsuits are filed, while they're left to continue breaking laws.
The mythos of our "checks and balances" is being ripped apart before our eyes. There is no balance. Only meaningless security theater that does not impede their disastrous actions at all.
"The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them."
- Turkish Proverb
Okay, trees, I know it's hard to understand but those billionaires? That orange stain now in office? They're the axe, honey. They've always been the axe.
And we've never been anything but kindling to them.
one year ago today, we released our second debut studio album.
how to build an ocean: instructions is an album concerned with detachment and subsequent reattachment to the people you hold close. it is an album about finding home in unfamiliar places. it is an album about falling in love with the city you grew up in.
most importantly, it is an album for you and for you alone.
to celebrate the anniversary, iain has created an epilogue documentary chronicling the aftermath of this album. a part two to the album documentary, chronicling a process that was flawed in all the right places.
you can watch that by clicking on the link here.
the future is bright.
thank you. bears in trees forever.
This is your daily reminder to drink water
Reblog to remind others
autistic ppl be like "i cant be autistic, i dont have special interests!" and then spend 20 minutes ranking bears in trees songs by how fast they make them cry (i regularly edit the playlist based off how i feel that day)
dear usamerican high schoolers looking for a way to resist fascism: sit through the pledge of allegiance.
no getting up. no looking at the flag.
everyone will be looking at you. you'll be sweating like a fucking hippopotamus. your teacher will sternly tell you to get up. you'll feel stupid and that maybe its not worth it because you're just a kid in a classroom. but I'm here to remind you that there are no real life consequences to detention. there are however real life consequences to resisting a thoughtless performance of nationalism.
guys absolutely HYPE update. so basically me and my dm called and we decided that the rest of the party should fight zombie bug, and im gonna hide, and then bugs going to get possessed bc of some necromancy magic and im gonna come out and play evil bug, and theyre gonna kill evil bug and bring regular bug back. theyre also all going up a level and in going up two, so theyll be level 3 and ill be level 4.
ok so a little backstory first, im in a dnd campaign with some friends. i play a character named bug, shes a half-orc barbarian who is just an absolute tank but a ray of sunshine. its the third session were fighting, we split up, bug has 17 xp. me and the fighter i went with are fighting, we decided to flee because i have low xp and so does he, and we lost sight of the monster. the fighter makes it out alive but i roll a nat 1. in our campaign we have a homebrew rule where if you roll a nat 1 you take 1d4 damage, so i take 1 damage and dont make it out of the room. its the monsters turn, it uses it claws to stab into my back and pick my up. it uses necrotic blast, getting 3d6 damage to me, i currently have 9 xp. the dm rolls all 6s so its 18 damage, 2x your xp means you dont get to roll the death saves so BUG IS OFFICIALLY DEAD. IM MOURNING, IM GONNA RIOT, THIS IS MY PERSONAL HELL
