I trust you!
One thing I really don’t like in apocalyptic fiction is the heavy reliance on cars (not you, Mad Max, you’re the exception) and other motorized crafts with animals being a secondary afterthought in terms of transportation and labor. Like, gasoline expires. It degrades. And the motorways would be a fucking nightmare if there was an event that caused somewhat sudden mass human death. Horses would be able to weave around cars and onto the shoulder and also through deer trails and smaller paths. And the upkeep on horses is much easier to do without electricity and complex machinery than cars. You can learn to forge a horseshoe/oxshoe from recycled metal but making a rubber tire from scratch as one person would be nearly impossible. And you can eat a beast of burden once it reaches the end of its working life, it probably won’t taste good but it is nutritious. You can’t shoot your car and make a nutritious broth from its bones when the engine block cracks.
Im enjoying the longevity of tumblrs recontextualization style of humor. a seemingly innocuous post followed by like "posts that a gnome would make" or like "are you a phone"
it is incredibly frustrating to see the non-response from westerners to what is arguably the worst natural disaster in recent memory. when the ukraine-russia war broke out, it was on everyone's blogs. everyone--at least on my dash--was trying to spread awareness of the humanitarian crisis. but now?
fucking crickets.
absolutely nothing.
this earthquake has already claimed 20k confirmed lives. it has only been 5 days. most wrecks have not been excavated yet.
we need all the help we can get, but not a single fucking person is doing anything to help spread the message. people who proudly put the ukrainian flag in their display names or in their bios are nowhere to be seen now. the influencers youtubers and tiktok micro-celebrities who shared donation posts and ukrainian refugee testimonials daily are dead silent now. why? why do you only care when the people dying are somewhat like you? do we need to be whiter to deserve your attention? or more christian? do we not deserve your energy as is? are we, turks and syrians, not humans?
im so fucking sorry if donation posts don't fit your blog's aesthetic or if the news are just so fucking draining for you. every single one of you motherfuckers living in the west should be ashamed of yourselves for how differently you are treating us versus how you treated ukrainians when the war broke out.
if this happened in any western country you'd all be making infographics on how to donate or help.
right now the only reason why people on my dash are devastated is because the rhythm guitarist from my chemical romance had a haircut.
all of you need to be doing better.
do better.

people who don't wear glasses are so weird like you just wake up and your eyes are pussy fresh??
