Thinking back to the good early days before my skin grew back when people could shake their heads at me and say “masks are a government conspiracy” and instead of navigating the bullshit like a normal person I could pull mine down and say “I have chemical burns on my face”

things people expect in a political confrontation:

  1. Facts
  2. Logic
  3. Emotional outbursts

Things they are never prepared for:

  1. Open sores

This post: “Thinking back to the good early days before my skin grew back”

Me: off to a compelling start

hey what was in the water with the stucky fandom for real they did some off the fucking chainnnn things on ao3 and for what.

the full on courtroom drama fics. the illustrated fics on ao3 that were like fucking baroque oil paintings. the epistolary shit. some mf wrote pieces of a fake book by a historian. we had works cited. this fanfction has a bibliography. how can we bottle this and distribute it en masse to other fandoms.

Stucky fandom had beautiful things in it.

FOOD HUBRIS BY COUNTRY
america: believes their shitty local burger chain is a once-in-a-lifetime culinary experience because their mayo includes onion paste
canada: if your poutine tastes better than the styrofoam plate it comes on you will discover the cold rage that lies under the canadian’s polite exterior
united kingdom: despite thriving and unique fusion cuisines spreading from the UK to the rest of the world in recent decades, when asked to think of ‘british food’ the average UK citizen will start a fight over whether cold beans with a modest side of white bread is haute cuisine
france: McDo Ortolan Bunting
italy: extremely mad about american versions of italian food. blissfully ignorant of what happens in brazil
brazil: if the scientific genius applied to making cronenbergian pizzas were applied to anything else, brazilians would all be commuting to jobs on the moon. They have pizza that can feel pain
russia: obviously mayonnaise is the perfect topping for all foodstuffs, this is solved. The question is what to put on top of mayonnaise, and it might never be answered
germany: less a joke than a fact: the single most produced numbered Volkswagen part is a standardized currywurst

VOLKSWAGEN CURRYWURST IS REAL IM FLIPPING OUT

I am somewhat new to formula e…. why are they driving around an airport???

wait till u find out they did like 6 races here in 2020 to finish the season off because they started and then covid happened and they couldn’t go anywhere else ! (they at least used 3 different layouts, i think they also raced on a tuesday or smth silly as well, it was cursed)

I am into the idea of racing on a Tuesday being inauspicious

It’s always “your zombie apocalypse Lenin question is weird” “who even thinks about that shit” and never “was fixating on tiny details from history class fun? It looked fun”

Here’s my favourite icebreaker that I wish someone would answer legitimately for once instead of getting hung up on what a weird question it is: only ten percent of Lenin’s original body is left. The rest has been slowly replaced with plastic and other materials over the years. So the question we must ask ourselves is: in a traditional zombie apocalypse (one not caused by a virus but simply by the sudden reanimation of every dead body on earth) DOES Lenin rise? Does the zombie apocalypse still recognise him as a human corpse? If he does rise is he a severely useless zombie unable to move his plastic body OR does he become a super zombie boss fight?

I’d assume a sudden reanimation would require a half-functioning brain left in the body. Like, in any apocalypse movie/media you don’t see rising skeletons, only bodies that were decomposed to a certain point, and the brain is needed for any basic/bare life function, so if we assume that the apocalypse in your hypothesis is suddenly bringing back brain functions to those who died, then Lenin wouldn’t rise at all.

If not, then we need to think about which parts were replaced, and how mobile his artificial joints are. If his plastic legs aren’t possibly bending, then he’s unable to walk. And if his arms aren’t bending either, then he can’t even crawl. So even if he would wake up, he’d probably stay in his grave really, really pissed off. I doubt he has even a newspaper lying around.

But if somehow someone thought about making him mobile for whatever reason, he’s 90% plastic. Plastic is extremely flammable. One molotov and this bitch ded
