*insert vile and controversial direct quote from charlie*

Pearl clutching hypocrites:

How dare you speak ill of the dead… even though he constantly spit on the names of dead folks, how dare you show such disrespect.

me: it’s a direct quote from him… it’s his words…

PCH:

You’re celebrating his death! You’re a monster!

me: I quoted him… It’s his words!

………….

Acknowledging & discussing someone’s vile actions, words and behavior in their life, is not celebrating their death…

STOP BLATANTLY IGNORING THE HARM THIS MAN HAS CAUSED!

Here’s the truth: Kirk wasn’t about dialogue, he was about domination. He wasn’t protecting liberty, he was laying the rhetorical groundwork for fascism.

This guy wasn’t just “against gay marriage.” He opened his Bible, pointed to the verse about executing gay men, and called it “God’s perfect law.” He tweeted “Pride is a sin” like he was dunking on an entire community. He told a gay student that their life wasn’t valid. Then he went even further—demanding a nationwide ban on gender-affirming care and calling trans kids an abomination. That’s not policy debate, that’s state-sanctioned cruelty dressed up as a sermon.

And race? Same playbook. He called George Floyd a “scumbag,” smeared Martin Luther King Jr. as “awful,” and sneered at the Civil Rights Act as a “huge mistake.” That’s not contrarian courage, that’s spitting on the graves of people who bled to expand democracy. And the man didn’t just flirt with white nationalism—he blasted the Great Replacement theory on national radio, pointing to demographic charts and telling his audience the decline of white Christians was “intentional.” Do you hear the subtext? He wasn’t warning about immigration policy, he was laying out a war cry.

Immigrants, in his mind, weren’t people—they were invaders. He called for a total immigration shutdown, then promised mass round-ups. Not the usual “tighten security” talk—he said, “We will find you and your family, and we will return you. All 20, 25, 30 million.” That’s not a plan, that’s a threat. It’s the fantasy of a police state that tears apart homes in the middle of the night.

And let’s not forget his casual acceptance of violence. He said it outright: “Some gun deaths every single year? Worth it.” Worth it! As if dead kids in classrooms are a reasonable trade-off for his right to pose with an AR-15 on Instagram. He called for Trump to unleash the military on American streets under the Insurrection Act. He told dads they should’ve physically stopped trans athletes from competing. He framed blood in the streets as part of liberty’s price tag and told the audience to clap for it.

Now the obits will paint him as a victim of “political violence.” But the man himself glorified violence when it came from the right. He cheered Rittenhouse. He excused Jan. 6. He was fine with militarized crackdowns as long as they landed on protesters, not his base. He didn’t fear political violence—he marketed it. And here’s the uncomfortable truth: if someone makes it their life’s mission to be a hate-mongering fascist, they shouldn’t be shocked when political violence finds them. Actions, rhetoric, and consequences are not separate islands—they feed each other.

So no, he wasn’t a saint, he wasn’t some brave debater taken too soon. He was a professional hate-monger, a demagogue who wanted to roll this country back to the dark ages of church-run morality and white supremacy. And if the papers try to hand him a halo, it’s our job to rip it off and remind people who he really was.

- I don’t support Charlie Kirk.

- I don’t support what happened to Charlie Kirk.

Charlie Kirk was an openly racist person who built a career off of mocking and spreading harmful rhetoric and ideology that hurt many people, especially poc, trans people, and women.

My absence of empathy does NOT mean I am celebrating.

All the people publicly wailing the death of Charlie Kirk were silent when MN State Representative Melissa Hartman, was publicly shot and killed. They’ve remained silent EVERY day of this ongoing genocide of Palestinian people. The slaughtering and mutilation of tens of thousands of children.

This is Charlie Kirk’s legacy:

Who repeatedly stated that “there was more to the story” when it comes to slavery.

Who publicly tried to assisinate the character of MLK.

Who publicly stated numerous times that the civil rights act was “ a huge mistake.”

Who publicly made comments such as, “if I see a black pilot, I’m gonna think, ‘boy, is he qualified?”

Who rushed to blame black people for the air traffic controller crisis.

Who repeatedly attacked the extremely qualified and accomplished SCJ Kentaji Jackson Brown’s appointment, saying she’s a “DEI hire” who was only appointed because she’s a “Black Woman.”

Whose rhetoric historically hurt women, not only continously bringing in to question their rights, but also making claims that “men don’t want women in their 30s because they’re not in their prime.”

Who bragged about sending 80 buses to DC on January 6th “to help fight for Trump” when our capital was stormed in an attempt to overthrow the government.

Who staunchly denies the existance of an entire group of people- the Palestinian people- and simultaneously CELEBRATES their ongoing genocide (whose population is over 50% children. Meaning babies and children are the ones dying for all the pretend pro-lifers, reading this).

He founded an organization who spread dangerous and false claims and medical misinformation, saying the covid vaccine caused Jamie Fox to become blind and paralyzed. This same organization created watchlists to harass and intimidate academics, officials who support public health measures or the teaching of accurate history.

Who was a big proponent of leading the seven mountains mandate and called for full military occupation in American cities.

Whose response to the 2023 shooting at ‘The Covenant School’ where three 9 year old students (and three adults) were shot and killed in their school, was that these deaths were “unfortunately, the cost of liberty.”

I’d like to remind everyone that the first tenet of white supremacy is your belief that you have the right to comfort…

You being forced to face the evil that that man portrayed and enacted during his life, after his death, makes you uncomfortable… you want everyone to pretend that there’s this notion as if he’s some sort of saint or freedom fighter… while actively ignoring the harm he caused to children and their families and minorities and victims of gun violence…

I’m sorry, but not all of us are going to participate in your delusion to make you feel comfortable about his untimely death at his own words…

stop it…

truly wild how driving really does become like piloting a mech after a while. like it sounds so car-bro-y but the car genuinely does become like an extension of your body. your muscles are simply making the correct micro-movements to perfectly manouvre a giant piece of machinery through a constantly moving maze while your brain is busy singing karaoke. you can physically feel when a gap is too small for your car-sona to fit through, like a cat putting its whiskers into a crevice. your brain is suddenly able to do on-the-fly s=d/t calculations in a milisecond and tell you exactly how quickly you need to move to avoid an oncoming vehicle while turning across the road. why does driving unlock the unused 89% of my brain

What the hell.

Is that what driving is for most people? I looked in the notes expecting to see a bunch of bewildered reactions but everyone is agreeing with OP and it’s not that I don’t believe you, but like.

I drove for years and hated every second of it because I was constantly aware of the fact that I was in charge of a massive chunk of speeding steel and glass capable of causing death if I sneezed at the wrong moment. Not for a single second did the car feel like a part of me. Driving always felt deeply unnatural and highly dangerous. It is indeed Wild to think that the vast majority of people apparently smoothly mind-meld with their car.

No wonder I hate driving so much. Everyone else is having a fun Carsona drift experience while I’m strapped into the pilot seat of a complicated memory game whose penalty for losing is dismemberment.

How do you feel about your ukelele? are there any particular fingerings you know you need to be juuuuuuuust a little off-book to sound “right”?

you innately sense need to reduce your cook time by a minute and a half because you made your pizza crust just a bit thinner than usual.

you know the perfect angle to use your favorite spatula without thinking about it.

intimate familiarity with equipment isn’t just for cars.

haptic experience is knowing-without-looking where the controls are, how much you need to press the throttle to cause the downshift you’re going to need to pass someone, and your ears can tell you what the tires are doing in addition to what your hands on the steering wheel and your ass in the seat are saying, and you can feather the gas, brake, or steering without much conscious thought.

and, unless you’re actively driving-driving (hooning, taking twelve laps of a roundabout just for fun, whatever), you just get this acclimated to a machine you use all the time and it does become a semi-extension of your tactile self.

for some, possibly most, motorists, this is never something they think about, even (and especially) if they do it all the time.

some folks are in The Anxiety Box the whole time. that sounds like it sucks.

i can tell you about the handling dynamics of every car i’ve owned, a couple of weekend rentals, and some that i’ve only driven once, often in a fair bit of detail.

cars are large, expensive, and dangerous, but they can also be a lot of fun.

even with the stereo turned off.

Me neither (until the soy sauce, when I yelled “FOR FUCKS SAKE” again).

One of the people who I rehomed some of my smaller pets to is asking if I can take one back because she bites, and I also found out she’s been keeping Daffy, one of the snakes I gave her, in a tub and rack system instead of the larger enclosure he came with. Naturally she wants to keep him and won’t give him back because he’s friendly.

I wish I hadn’t rehomed either of them to her now.

soonsaytruther:

One of the books I recommend everybody to read is Sand Talk by Tyson Yunkaporta. It rewired my brain and I mean that in a really physical, tactile way.

One of the main topics of the book is Indigenous Australian information technologies. Indigenous Australians don’t use written language. They have different information technologies. Not inferior. Different. Yunkaporta demonstrates the very basics of how these technologies work, and you immediately feel your brain do something you had no idea it could do.

It feels like he’s walking inside your house, gesturing to a wall that was always there, and then walking right through it, demonstrating that the wall was never there in the first place.

In a written-language-based society, children grow up learning to communicate by written language, and it shapes the way their thoughts and memories work. But there are other information technologies that work very, very differently than how written language works. The very idea of ideas is fundamentally different.

The author re-iterates that writing these things down into a book mutilates the idea because writing makes you think and understand a certain way.

I think everyone should read this book because basically everyone is brainwashed nowadays to believe that human cultures follow a linear progression from being dirty cave men in the woods, to settled agriculture, cities and written language, to smelting iron and writing on paper…and it’s totally wrong.

Some cultures used writing, others didn’t. Writing is not a “later stage” of “advancement,” it is just a different technology, and it has advantages and disadvantages.

Same with agriculture. Yunkaporta explains that there were indigenous Australian people that tried settled agriculture in the distant past, but that culture collapsed. The ecosystem just isn’t good for settled agriculture.

Same with metal working. Something that pisses me off is people calling indigenous North American cultures “stone age.” First of all, they made plenty of things out of copper. Second of all, they didn’t NEED bronze or iron. Mining is back breaking, dangerous work, and smelting involves so many unhealthy fumes. Maybe the labor and impact upon society and the environment just wasn’t worth it for them.

Colonization has made a monoculture of thought. Monoculture is in the essence of colonialism. Not only does colonialism literally replace diverse agricultural ecosystems with sameness, it also replaces human diversity with sameness.

And replacing human diversity with sameness, enforces sameness upon the ecosystem, because everyone is forced into using the same machines, consuming the same resources, valuing the same aesthetics, eating the same foods, playing the same sports, raising the same animals, wearing the same clothes, living in the same houses.

Just think about it. If two cultures live next to each other and have different cultural foods and clothes, for example one eats fish and berries and wears wool and the other eats chickens and roots and wears linen, their foraging and agricultural practices are different, so more biodiversity can exist, and they aren’t using the same resources, so the resources are more sustainable. If EVERY culture eats the same food and wears the same clothes, they are all putting strain on the same resources, and every area will have the same agro-ecosystem, eliminating biodiversity.

Something really violent about eating a burrito. Biting a hole in that thing. A sandwich or a taco is different, it’s already open, but a well-wrapped burrito is like a complete living thing in your hand, the taut skin protecting a complex network if internal organs. And you put a hole in it, maul it for sustenance, like a wolf on the open plain tearing the throat from a living gazelle. Or perhaps like a guy living in an infested apartment catching a white rat in his hands and just biting into it.

What if oxygen is poisonous and it just takes 75-100 years to kill us?

My science teacher said he thinks that’s true actually

Yeah this is actually pretty much exactly what is going on. It’s why anti-oxidants are such a big deal. Bonus fact: oxygen oxidizes stuff in your cells or, in other words, it’s not toxic, just setting you on fire very very slowly.

What if there are aliens out there but they subsist on entirely different substances and they’re just scared as shit of us and our crazy ass hell planet? Once in a while some alien anthropologist type suggests checking out the people on this inhabited planet out towards the galaxy’s edge. The other aliens just look at the naive academic with horror. No!! We do not go to that world. That is where the DEATH BREATHERS live. They recreationally consume poisons and are more or less composed of biological fire. Their atmosphere is made of rocket fuel. We must leave the DEATH BREATHERS in peace. Do not go there. Do not.

I tend to always reblog posts about humans being terrifying weirdos to aliens.

@brainsforbabyjesus

okay but…that is actually what went down on earth about 2.5 billion years ago.

Earth was doing just fine with a mostly nitrogen/carbon dioxide atmosphere and everyone was happy to go on living in anaerobic bliss and then cyanobacteria suddenly hit the scene, altered the atmosphere composition so that there was a ton of oxygen gas and killed practically everything (97% or more of all species on earth).

We are literally descendants of the DEATH BREATHERS and cyanobacteria is our deadly mother.

The cyanobacteria holocaust is so big, it doesn’t even have a cool name; it’s just called “The Great Oxygenation Event”; the *second* most apocalyptic extinction event in our planet’s history is the one that’s called THE GREAT DYING (the Permian-Triassic event, about 252 million years ago).

This shit makes like the rock-throwing that wiped out the dinosaurs look like kindergarten.

OH HOW I LOVE THIS POST. It makes me so much happier about being alive. I AM BURNING VERY SLOWLY. *hugs it*

And once again, the internet makes learning history and science a thousand times more interesting than school ever did.

I love shit like this.

I was totally having thoughts along these lines and along comes tumblr to pretty much sum it all up. Bravo~

You see I too often sat in school classes and thought “when am I ever going to need this, I’m never going to be an engineer, I’m never gonna be a scientist, I’m never gonna be a linguist” and then I grew up and it turns out a lot of bigots and cults and scams and grifts hinge their entire business model on you just. Not knowing what a protein is or some shit

If people knew what a fucking atom is and how molecules are defined, at least a quarter of all health related cults like movements and scams wouldn’t work.

“Ohh it’s a different sugar than refined sugar” it’s the same molecule.

“Ohhh my water filtering apparatus making beauty water and cleaning water and alkaline water” Water is H20. What you’re doing is reverse osmosis, and if it’s alkaline then there is a substance that’s not water in there to make it alkaline. You can’t purify water to a pH of 12, because pure water molecules have, by definition of how the pH system works and several phyics rules, a pH of exactly 7.

“Ooohh it has ~different~ sodium atoms.” That’s called an isotope and sodium isotopes aren’t created by magic woowoo, and the magical ability of most isotopes is radioactivity.

“Low toxin” what toxin. Tell me their names. What are they doing. “They are endocrine disruptors” what part of the endocrine system? How? Do you have a source that doesn’t try to sell you something?

“Just mix vinegar and baking soda to cleanse all the toxins of your fruits” you just created water molecules and CO2, and some calcium and acetate which don’t have much chemical property. That’s a science fair vulcano. And doesn’t have acidic or alkaline properties to chemically influence anything. Just use tap water at this point. “My wood cutting board soaked in an alkaline solution from baking soda to clear out the toxins leaves a nasty looking soup” yeah because you were dissolving the wood with an alkaline solution. Congratulations.

“There is effective microorganisms in this ceramic bead and it can cleanse your laundry and dishes and prevent mold in your fridge and it works for years” what microorganisms exactly? How did you discover them? What are they eating? Are they resistant to 60 degrees and steam? Do they procreate in the fridge? Are they spreading out on all surfaces to prevent the mold or is it an air filtration system that works without airflow or is it just magic? “Put them in your flowers, they can reverse cavities, put them in your walls” what are they eating in my walls? What kind of microorganisms are they? Did you test the safety of those things in human bodies? Are they native to my biotope? How do they survive in those fucking ceramic beads?

“Just use vinegar it’s magic” it’s a mild acid. Like, cool, sure, it works for several things, but it doesn’t have magic properties. It’s just a mild acid. Lemon juice is too. And once again, if you mix it with baking soda, they neutralise each other and you get water. Which cleans a lot of things but you dont need to do *all that* to get your hands on some plain water.
