Macklemore reveals Ed Sheeran and his team removed him from his tour after his Free Palestine statements:
“He told me that the words ‘Free Palestine’ and the image of the Palestinian flag were hurtful to a lot of people he spoke with. I told him that if those words were more offensive than tens of thousands of Palestinian children being killed by Israel, then there was a fundamental disconnect between where those people stood and where I stood. But he couldn't get past his public facing, ‘I don't take sides.’”

"Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters filmed on phones that will get closer and closer to where you live until you are filming it on your own phone" keeps getting real day by day and we're doing nothing to stop it, this is so fkn scary
used to read self help books and tried the strategies none of them really stuck. turns out that the best way to help yourself is to read the haikyuu manga
Wait. So a woman in the military was raped by her commanding officer, because he used his key to sneak into her quarters, and a judge just decided that being raped was "one of her duties" and declared it a workplace accident??????????
Who the fuck is this judge? How does one even come to that conclusion??
honestly one of my favorite things about fanfic is when you can see the canon influences come out in really subtle ways. like a canon line thats mentioned once as a throwaway is suddenly the entire premise for a fic or it influences the characterization or something. its just so cool to see how people weave their ideas around a source material, especially if its not a detail i'd thought about before
if you’ve ever hallucinated from lack of sleep you understand how terrible this is. dude was definitely witnessing sea creatures God hasn’t even made yet.
