Hello there!
I'm a queer disabled leftist POC nerd who does ancient & medieval reenactment.
I post about politics, history, literature, and fandom stuff. So there will be gay Elves/pirates/superheroes mixed in with discussions of history, oppression, and power dynamics. Also medieval food.

I'm always confused when writers change the plot because a reader figured out what was coming. Surely that's good? Surely that means the breadcrumbs have been laid out appropriately?

6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

Théodred’s burial is such a beautiful piece of film-making. One of the moments where the Jackson trilogy really taps into the deeper sources of the book. I wish they’d gone this way more often.

The moment an Israeli missile hit a tent in Gaza was caught on camera when a Palestinian girl filmed herself showing her hair clips.

more than 1,000 Palestinians

In the West Bank, not Gaza!
In two years, Israel has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.
Every day, settlers attack Palestinian villages. Netanyahu & his extremist allies have one goal: annexation by force. The U.S. has enabled them.
NO MORE U.S. MILITARY AID FOR ISRAEL.

Unlike in Gaza, there is no organized armed resistance to defend Palestinians in the West Bank, no declared war-zone, no pretext to hide behind. What Israel is doing exposes its cruelty in its rawest form.

The average American Muslim 100% denounces isis while the average American jew supports the state of Israel's existence. Antisemitism is not real until it affects you materially like housing/jobs re Filkenstein which jews are absolutely not affected by in any meaningful way in the US be serious
oh my god. the average american muslim did not personally fight against isis. that does not make islamophobia justified. why are you deliberately lying about the things i say. you are fighting ghosts
What have jews done for Palestinians that is comparable to what Muslims have done and continue to do against mossad made isis? Something like 11 million Muslims were killed in the "war on terror" and we still don't center our feelings like you coddled ghouls who do zero but larp 10x
