i feel like we as a digital society have forgotten the important rules of the internet
Don't feed the trolls
Never give out personal information
Anonymity is the best defense
Don't click suspicious links
Don't click popups and ads
Just because it's written doesn't mean it's true
You are responsible for your own experience
There is porn of everything, act accordingly
I will not elaborate
(BTW: this was made MEBI's reblogs 👍)
Joel's win is so Joel. Of course he wins the series where it's all wild and scuffed and unpredictable, the guy who was first individual in MCC Scuffed. Of course he wins without any overarching plot of drama or revenge, the guy who just shouts "Lore!" for story telling. Of course the potential for dramatic animatic with him walking through a long corridor with a door at the end of it is ruined immediately by his cringefail trap skills.
Joel dying recklessly is his brand. And when that doesn't happen and he actually wins, it's still on brand in many other ways.
seeing other people play Outer Wilds for the first time and thinking "god i wish that were me"
This article is from 9 years ago.
Israelis have been sexually assaulting Palestinians for the past 76 years.
Can we bring back Palestine Academy as a resource, I fear a lot of people are forgetting to go back to the basics and simply learn about what is happening in Gaza and what HAS BEEN happening for the past 76 years
I'm actually starting to wonder if Team Cherry straight up has no idea of how rabid the community has become, either that or they're just too naively optimistic. I mean I'm bad at socializing but even I understand the consequences of vagueposting when thousands of people are waiting for any word you utter with bated breath. In my opinion, that's about the biggest blunder they've made so far, because I never really cared about the lack of news, as evident by the fact that I only found out about the cake being a lie just now. I subscribed to Deltarune Newsletter and literally got bored after reading just one and never read any again, even now I don't know how its development is going. So I'm perfectly fine with no news, but accidentally baiting and hyping up a starving community for nothing is such a hilariously disastrous mistake 💀
I DIED LAUGHING OH MY GOD
i genuinely hate how people have to sit and write a post that stands out while boosting a fundraiser because most people won't bat an eye at the misery and inhumane conditions Palestinians are living in.
i see people making art and telling others to use it because fundraisers with art are generally reblogged more often. i see people using colored text in order to make the post more eye catching.
palestinians on instagram are using popular audios and stitch trending reels at the beginning to make the world pay attention to them. imagine having to make something look entertaining in order to survive.
they are living under constant threat of israeli airstrikes, bombing, scarcity of food and disease. many have lost a lot in the past few months.
palestinians on tumblr are posting their pictures and the horrible conditions in which they are living. they travel long distances for internet connection only to be called a scammer by some privileged ass who cannot locate gaza on a map.
here are some verified gfms. please share the linked posts. it's the bare minimum we can do from the comforts of our home.

silksong is definitely coming fr fr
It's so funny how Daily Silksong News posted "The End" on April Fool's Day, and the next day the internet lost its shit. And then we got more news in the past month than we got in the past god knows how long. We stay winning
twitter link to the video (in it, you can hear these fascists loudly screaming "are they white?" and "they're white, they're white! they're english!" before letting the cars pass).
remember how the american and british press stirred up an absolute panic about the non-violent, pro-palestine campus protests? how they endlessly slandered the students as antisemitic extremists, creating justification for the violent police crackdown that would soon follow?
compare that now to how they're covering (or not covering) the fascist pogroms in the UK, where, for the past few days, violent white supremacists mobs have been terrorizing muslims, migrants and other non-white communities, forming mobs to intimidate and violently attack anyone they perceive as non-white and non-British.
the hotel shown in the video above is now the second hotel housing asylum seekers that these fascist mobs have attempted to set fire to, and yet, the harshest words the majority of the UK press is willing to use to describe them, are "far-right rioters, "anti-immigration protesters" or, if you're the BBC, just "protesters."
here's from skynews (UK), with the almost comical framing of "anti-fascists (left)" vs. "people protesting"
again, if you compare that to the headlines they were running during the campus protests...
this goes beyond some racist "bias" in their reporting: you can draw a direct link here between the UK media's coverage of palestine, and the fascist mobs willing to burn asylum seekers alive.
obviously there are other factors at play, but the genocide denial, the portrayal of arabs and muslims as terrorists and antisemites (which again, gets projected onto britain's migrant population and asylum seekers as a whole), the overall dehumanization and othering of the palestinian people — all of this has been feeding into, and stoking up, the racism and islamophobia that's now boiling over, and erupting into nakedly fascist violence.
