Anyone got any theories on why this would be on Blitz's grave? I know the one we can see for Jäger is obvious but I have no idea for this one!
The most intense, yet stressful part of the entire match.

There is a new animation competition being hosted by cloud kid. https://cloudkid.squarespace.com/bad-meme-competition
I'm a big fan of these competitions even if I don't do so well on them. Though so far I'm pretty proud of this loop.
My favorite super bowl Ad. It’s so cursed I love it!

Nothing that the Russians say or do on their television and social media can trigger and frustrate a Ukrainian more than the attitude of the Western world towards the Russians.
I read the morning news and see that Jared Leto on his show in Serbia happily told his Russian fans that he'll come to Russia and Ukraine when these "problems" are over. I go on tumblr and see people I follow reblogging a post about Discord being blocked in Russia, and instructions on how to use the VPN as if literally all Russians don't know it already. This post has over 2k notes! A post about atrocities that Russians willingly commit in Ukraine on a daily basis will get you 60-100 notes, 95% of which will be from other Ukrainians.
This is beyond triggering. How do you live in this Russian-loving world with Russian-induced PTSD?
This is not a "Ukrainian crisis", not "temporary difficulties", not just a "problem" that can go away without a trace. It's an invasion, a Russian war against Ukraine, genocide of Ukrainians. We are not crazy and overdramatic, we see the true face of Russia. The one you will never be able to see through your red square glasses.
INKTOBER
Day 23: Rust.
Day 24: Expedition.
"Ukraine is getting too much attention" "it's not that bad suck it up" "but what about [insert country]" "I bet if russia did [something russia has done 20 times] the world would react bc Ukrainians are white" "but what oil prices" "there are only 647 dead Ukrainian children in 2 years" "what about russian protesters" "white privilege" "that's not genocide this is anti-imperialism" "what about 8 years of bombing bambas children" "but Azov regiment" "I don't want WW3 we must appease russia at all costs" "Ukraine rejected peace deal with russia" "they are all nazis anyway" "kill yourself"
This is how it feels.
Our everyday struggle and fight for life aren't glamour decorations that can easily be erased. Don't silence our voices when Russia is staying unpunished for its crimes throughout the whole of Russian history. Support us, donate to our army and medics (safelifein.ua, prytulafoundation, ptahy. Before it's not too late. We running out of time and weapons. Please don't look away!

I’m so fucking tired.
We shouldn’t be “racist” to Russian. We shouldn’t be “xenophobic” to them. We shouldn’t be russophobic. We should have helped them. We should be more accepting. We must be forgiving. We cannot have a trauma response. We cannot avoid Russian.
We cannot do that and that. Also that.
We must do that and that. Also, that.
We cannot complain. We cannot show our suffering. We are at fault. We must negotiate. We must be silent. We have all deserved. We should have been destroyed. We need to understand. We need to be grateful.
Today I had to publicly defend a Ukrainian 14-year old child simply because he feels uncomfortable to engage with Russian art accounts. Child whose country for most of his life is at war with Russia. Child who spent night sheltering from rockets.
But he doesn’t have a right to be uncomfortable with oppressors.
He is xenophobic.
He is racist.
But Russians that arrived at his posts and started mocking him, are not.
“They are victims of bullying, so it is justified response”
Everyone can have a justified response. Everyone, except us. Because we must be a perfect victim. Or not victim at all? Maybe we are the one that attacked? Maybe we are nazis? There would be always 1001 arguments we do not deserve to be called victims.
World was watching us suffering for centuries. They disarmed us, left us defenceless and then, didn’t even help us a lot until we started screaming. Sometimes I feel that even now, people are still watching at us like at some drama, putting million expectations.
I’m feeling absolutely helpless. Whatever we do, we cannot do. No matter how we react, we should have reacted differently.
We owe everyone everything and no one owes us anything. Wonderful world to live in.
I’m losing motivation. I’m losing hope. I want to scream and cry. But it is also hopeless.
Why us? Why now? Why?
We already see it how the nation of heroes is being demonized by propaganda as more and more people are falling for it. It hurts in a way that we, Ukrainians, can't even explain.
I really hope Jack Edwards chokes. "Oh look we made Dostoevsky number one bestseller on Amazon!" as if that fucking guy needed any hype. Maybe you can spend all this time and energy promoting books and authors that truly are not represented? I don’t know, make a video on Georgian literature, spend hours trying to find at least one English translation of the biggest Lithuanian authors? Of course, it’s going to be hard, all of the money was spend on English translations of Russian authors and all of us had only last 33 years trying to do anything to promote our culture while you all were simping for chauvinists, who hated the bare existence of us. Google at least the names of prominent Polish and Latvian authors. What are their names? What were they writing about? Could they afford to write about some highly intellectual suffering while their nations were balancing between life and death? Read the names of modern Ukrainian writers that were killed in the last 2 years. Who killed them? What would they think of Dostoevsky? Were they the "trembling beast" or "did they have the right"? Literature does teach a lot and for some reason the countries that were (are) under Russian attacks don’t like Dostoevsky, why his philosophical thought is so pathetic in our eyes? Do some research, then we’ll talk.
I genuinely don’t even know how to respond to this. (X)
i'm tired of Eastern European countries being sacrificied by the West in order to appease Russia. this is exactly what happened after WW2, this is what might as well happen now
3:10 to Yuma
3:10 to Yuma (2007) needs more fics, or AUs, or fanart, it's an amazing film that goes over how grey the old west was rather than the dramatic black and white lenses we saw it through because of stereotypes and western films.
It goes over morals and values, we see this brought up when Wade mentions that Butterfield didn't even call attention to how many lives he took but rather talked about how much money he stole. Wade also mentions how McElroy has murdered like Wade before, and yet Bryon McElroy considers himself better, constantly shoving his faith into conversations as if to prove he is a good man when he never was.
The movie is like a coming of age story for William, a young 14 year old boy who is the son of Dan Evans, he sees his father's loyalty to God and his devotion to justice and how it's led to men like Hollander (the town banker and a saloon owner) to walk all over him. But by the end of the film his father became a brave man who had conquered one of the most wanted men in the west.
Daniel/Dan Evans is one of the main characters, through the film we see his achievements and his failures, we see his loyalty to his religion, how his family shares the same morals. More importantly we see the devastation in his family, lacking money for rent, for food, for anything. We see Dan face his sons despite their disappointment, we see him face his wife despite her lack of love. How poverty has strained the relationship between him and his wife, between him and his oldest son William, and even starting to disconnect him and his youngest son.
Ben Wade is an outlaw in the West, who had been abandoned by his parents and says he thinks doing good deeds might be "habit forming." He points out the flaws of each person he interacts with and seems to have a strong mindset of how the world around him is corrupt, only to have his view tested upon meeting Dan Evans.
Wade and Evans' dynamic is strong and well written out, they tell stories of their past to one another, they talk about morals and throughout the story get to know one another. Even briefly working together twice. At the end of the story, we can even see Wade almost shed a tear for Dan Evans.
Overall I think it's a good film with amazing story telling.
A Need I Should Feed😈
3:10 to Yuma fics, all great, lovely even.
But I wish there was one talking more about Dan's younger years, or even one where they meet when they're both younger, or even one taking place during the civil war or right after!
I want a fic focusing more on Dan and how he used to be a soldier, pls.😔🙏
I AM BACK!
I haven't been posting a lot, especially about 3:10 to Yuma, but I have returned and still with my love for the film😋
