Creature of the Void

The same is happening in Canada. Vancouver tourism is noting that there is a 20 percent drop in bookings from last year, which is strange to have a drop just like that. It's because Vancouver hotels increased their prices by 113 percent

@JTburnerman after seeing how insufferable you are, i cant fathom why she would legitimately miss you. if you cant trust her and assume shes cheating because she loves you by some miracle of the gods and wants to talk to you, i think you should just be single

Maybe the worst text to receive when you’re girl’s at a party #fuckmetotears

@moopreet make something for yourself if you dont like it. the kitchen is already hot without a heatwave, ofc shes going to make something that isnt going to keep her in the kitchen longer than absolutely necessary

being Indian during a heatwave sucks because you’ll be sweating your balls off and your mums like “we’re eating daal for dinner”

This is called a stress position. This is not yoga. Try it on a cold floor, with your hands zip-tied, and see if you can hold it even for 5 minutes. Now imagine being held that way for hours, and even days. Stress positions are used in torture to cut off circulation and create extreme pain in the joints. Postures of humiliation are chosen where you cannot see what is happening, and have no chance to remain calm, clear, and alert. . Having your kidneys exposed to cold air creates vasoconstriction, high blood pressure, strains the renal system, lowers immunity and causes acute physiological stress. I think of how many people in the world are being tortured right now as I write. I don't have to say this but I will. There are very few people who will put themselves aside to help others. There are only a few who would try (and even try again) to deliver food and medical supplies to Gaza. Both Canada and the US are ratified in the Geneva conventions against torture. In war time or in peace time, torture is not legal. Stop supplying Israel. Stop supporting Israel. Apply sanctions. If we do not stop Israel's use of torture, one thing is clear. We are complicit. We know this. Write your elected officials, and for God's sake, speak up already.

@mashakleiner there were homes and infrastructure here before colonizers came. and i would love to see the unedited footage to understand what prompted them to say that to you, rather than something pieced together without context

@G_itsVictoria Colonizers built this country and all the homes. And all the technology, including the infrastructure for the internet that you use to hate colonization. And I actually do listen to indigenous people: x.com/mashakleiner/s…

Last time I checked, Vancouver was a city in British Columbia, Canada. What are foreign flags doing in Vancouver city council meeting, and where are the B.C. and the Canadian flags?!

@mashakleiner its funny you think i own property lol. if you bother to even listen to Indigenous people about land back they dont want to kick people out of their homes like the colonizers did

@G_itsVictoria If you believe it was stolen, then why are you still here? Lead by example, give away your house and leave.

@mashakleiner Vancouver was built upon unceded territory, acknowledging the nations land was stolen from doesnt make those flags foreign

@G_itsVictoria This is Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. These are the only three flags that belong in public offices. Every other flag - people are free to fly in their front yard, living room, or tattoo on their shoulder.

@sockmoments if youre lucky to have the green ones theyre like the nectar of gods

only right answer is white or blue btw

@rainylavndr everyone who would want the earrings is Isuldur, and we are but humble Elrond pleading to someone already swayed by dark machinations

ideas for what to do with jewelry that makes decisions for you:

@wyomelo this is literally the only correct thing to do with jewelry that whispers to you

Idea: AI earrings that whisper to you and help you make decisions

@oliretta1890 meryl streep, the woman that you are. my god.

this is insane

People are actively trying to murder this guy while he’s live streaming

canadians need to stop this mass psychosis about tim hortons a shitty fast food chain is not something to base your delusions of cultural autonomy on and how many immigrants had a hand in making your farmers wrap is not a barometer of your nation's health

@nogunjou @shadowjeon there is no respect of culture superficially. you either know enough about a culture to know why words are used and actions are done, and in what context is appropriate if you really care, or you just appropriate aesthetic without caring bc you think its trendy

@G_itsVictoria @shadowjeon Again, they respect the aesthetic and the culture on a superficial level. Bling, fashion, etc. Liking hip hop doesn't make you a historian People are making it like they're trying to insult black people instead of just copying rappers' speech patterns without any deeper meaning

Since this is making a comeback: THIS IS LITERALLY A *FAMINE* FOOD. A dish made primarily for survival. A minority of malnourished Haitians living in slums who lacked food access ate this, esp post-2010 Earthquake. It isn’t a national dish.

@nogunjou @shadowjeon if they "clearly respect" hip hop, then they would know the context of the word and also know that they shouldnt use it. as it stands, they just like the aesthetic and dont care about the heart of hip hop otherwise they wouldnt use 니가 in place of the n-word

@shadowjeon Sure but if we're talking about context then it's evident that the K rappers are just trying to emulate the aesthetic of hip hop culture that they clearly respect So using the N-word is more like a term of familiarity among people in the same cultural community ("wassup my N-")

@SoToR75 @SecondRingSZN look out, the CCP is sending top secret agents to feed America's homeless

@SecondRingSZN Disgusting CCP astroturf 🤢

Locals: you must avoid going into skid row at all costs Chinese guy who can't even speak English:

@wispiicoatl your redesign is so cute! i think it would be great if it were a comic or other still media format, but it would lilely be too hard to animate cleanly without it looking messy/missing details shot to shot

Girl I’m bored let’s practice character design!!

🇮🇳🩸👩🏽‍🌾Les travailleuses de la canne à sucre en Inde SE FONT RETIRER l’utérus pour ne plus manquer une journée de travail. Dans le district de Beed (Maharashtra), des ouvrières de la canne à sucre subissent des hystérectomies pour ÉVITER LES ABSENCES liées aux règles, aux grossesses ou aux fausses couches. Dans le système de travail « jodi », les couples sont surendettés et TRAVAILLENT jusqu’à 14 HEURES PAR JOUR, sans congés ni protections, poussant certaines femmes à voir cette opération comme une solution pour continuer à travailler. Malgré des enquêtes menées en 2019 révélant plus de 13 000 HYSTÉRECTOMIES dans le district de Beed et des promesses de réformes, les militants dénoncent un manque de changements concrets. Les conditions de travail extrêmes, le MANQUE D’HYGIÈNE et la pression de certains médecins FAVORISENT ces opérations. Les autorités locales, sous pression médiatique, ont lancé de nouvelles enquêtes et PROMETTENT DES MESURES, mais les activistes estiment que le système reste inchangé. (The Guardian)
