YEAH BUT THIS ONE WILL BE DIFFERENT
me: i’ve got another idea for a fic
them: you literally have seven unfinished works
me:
People love talking about being warriors of social justice. They condemn any country who’s against it. But somehow the activists always fail small countries. Countries who don’t have big economical value outside of their territory. Countries they don’t know much about.
Artsakh and Armenia have been under attack since September 27th. It’s a continuation of the ethnic massacre started in 1915-1917. International media outlets have published only a few and very neutral articles about the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Congressmen and congresswomen, UN, OSCE, goverments’ representatives have only “urged” the terrorist attacks to stop. Meanwhile countries like USA, Russia, Israel, Georgia make it possible for Azerbaijan and Turkey to get ammunition, which they use to target not only board soldiers ( born in 2000′s) but also innocent civilians.
The internet community has been silent for the most part. Armenians and other supporters have made uproaring trends and have provided information and countless informative infographs so that the online community would be informed and would spread the word. But the coverage is still minimal. People refuse to join.
Artsakh is being attacked the same way as Palestine, Crimea, Lebanon. All small locations, counties that have been failed to be protected. Countries who fight every day to keep their indigenous people and lands alive.
Why is the world silent? If the issue was about a nazi group attacking jews, the world would go apeshit. So what’s the difference? Why the favoritism? People still need help, be it jews or armenians or any other nation.
Wildfires, dying fish and burning cathedrals get worldwide news coverage the first day. But people, actual people, are dying and no one bats an eye.
Locally speaking, a trans person flees an abusive home and the gofundme post gets 5k notes (as it should). But countless people die because of their ethnicity and religious views and the posts about them never surpass 1k notes.
Why is that? Please take a second to reevaluate your bias and actually recognize how much of your online activism is performative and how much of it is actually useful, unbiased, based purely on human rights.
Okay last one of these for a while lmao
I’m hearing from android users that they can’t access the rec list page on my blog due to technical glitches in the app, so I’ve made a post with links to all the fic rec lists I’ve compiled. I’ll try to keep it updated below the cut:

lily colins made emily in paris so she could hang out in france wear cool clothes and make out with a ridiculous number of hot french men and she’s not wrong about any of it
I could never get into Supernatural or Buffy The Vampire Slayer or Teen Wolf, but of course I'm watching My Babysitter's A Vampire now that it's back on Netflix
Nunca me identifiquei tanto assim com algo na minha vida
they get fogged up when we drink hot beverages. they get smudged for no reason. we will push them up using anything in our area (i.e shoulder, whatever is in my hand, scrunching my nose up so they get pushed up, etc.). they get knocked off our faces all. the. fucking. time. when we change clothes we either take them off or they fall off when we pull our shirts off. we have to clean them after being in the rain. we own multiple pairs of them, not just one lone pair for our whole lives. most people don’t wear them in the pool, but some have extra old pairs for the pool (like me). some people take them off during sex, that’s fine! but some people keep them on. they don’t get squished into your face when you kiss (most of the time. at least from what i’ve experienced and i’ve got some mf big glasses). if we look down and look back up while you talk/to peek up at something, we will just peek blindly over the top of them. we clean them on whatever item of clothing is closest. some of us have prescription sunglasses and some of us wear contacts when we need to wear sunglasses. please keep some of these in mind when you write characters with glasses cause y'all who have 20/20 vision keep telling me all characters sleep in their glasses and own the same singular pair from age 6-25 and they never clean them.
It is so fucking hard to be the only child of an immigrant father, specially if you are a girl. I feel like I'm being controlled all the time, I am almost eighteen and I still get yelled at for wearing sport pants, for wearing a dress, for staying out late. I can barely make friends because I'm afraid of my father, I feel more judged by him then by anyone else.
