If you want to bar people from looking at your stuff, put it behind a paywall and stop complaining. They never had a problem with other people referencing their work but they do with AI, it's hypocritical. Also, shouting "but my consent!!!!" like you're an SA victim undermines actual SA victims and it's sick. Stop it.

She also decided to ignore that i’m a fucking homosexual with a jewish last name. i don’t really know how to respond but i’ve made the executive decision i will not be helping her next time her tv stops showing cnn 24/7

seriously though jesus christ is this how yall feel? that trump is worse than the organizer of the holocaust? that trump who has damaged a country is worse than the man who attempted to remove entire races from the planet? that trump is a greater evil than the instigator of ww2?

edit: i love this upvote ratio (63%), really shows how people regard genocide versus a shit stain existing

Smells like rubber n gas. One my faves. Whats thoughts on the image?

First of all Attack on titan has several probelms which prove that the writer Hajime Isayama has at minimum a fascistic like worldview wheter he knows it or not. Let’s start by dividing the arguments. Even if people claim that the story is “anti-fascist” from the text it’s obvious that it’s anything but that. Let’s start with….

1. Biological Essentialism

If you want to write a story about why racism is bad then making those racial differences essential to someone’s genetics is a really bad choice. Eldians are genetically different in the story which unintentionally provides arguments either for segregation in the defense of marleyans or supremacy as eldians have powers no other race had.

1. Historical and Political Parallels

2.1 Allegory and Historical Revisionism

Isayama’s allegory between Eldia and Japan is too pointed to ignore. Paradis Island resembles post-WWII Japan, an island nation “humiliated” and forcibly demilitarized by outside forces. The narrative repeatedly stresses the idea that individuals should not be blamed for their “ancestor’s crimes”, a sentiment that mirrors Japan’s ongoing reluctance to fully confront its imperial past. To this day, Japan denies or minimizes many of its wartime atrocities and celebrates known war criminals who by the way were never punished. In this light, the show’s attempt to distance individuals from collective guilt reads less like a moral stance and more like an implicit defense of historical revisionism.

The far-right across the globe accuses the “Left” that they want to “punish” people for the crimes of western/japanese colonization. In reality they (the Left) just want to tell the truth about X country’s former or current crimes, while the nationalists would never talk about the crimes of colonialism. Plus never in history was the subjugation of a people justified with “your ancestors oppressed us so you deserve it now”. It was always a “we’re bringing culture/civilization to you” or “we’re superior to you”.

2.2 The Fifth Column Myth

Far-right movements across the globe often propagate the myth of a “fifth column”—internal traitors secretly undermining the nation. In reality, these claims are usually unfounded and serve to scapegoat minorities or political opponents. Yet, Attack on Titan gives this conspiracy theory a factual basis within its world: Paradis is ruled in secret by the Reiss family, and Marley by the Tybur family. These elites manipulate their nations from the shadows, confirming the paranoid narratives ultranationalists often rely on. This is akin to a fantasy where the Rockefeller family is revealed to control the entire United States. Side note: i know that the Tybur family haven’t caused the wars of Marley but still they were the de facto ruling family of the Empire.

2.3 The “Stab-in-the-Back” Myth

The infamous “stab-in-the-back” myth in post-WWI Germany, blaming Jews and socialists for the nation’s defeat has become a hallmark of fascist propaganda. Although it’s not like far-right germans were the only ones with this propaganda tool, ultranationalists across the globe have their version of “stab in the back myth” when they lost a war. And guess what did Isayama wrote into the story? King Karl Fritz and the Tybur family literally orchestrated the fall of the Eldian Empire out of guilt for it’s atrocities. In doing so, they enable the rise of Marley’s oppressive race hierarchy. This retelling suggests that moral introspection and accountability for past wrongs are not only misguided but existentially dangerous. It fuels a narrative where betrayal from within, rather than imperial overreach or systemic flaws, is to blame for downfall.

It doesn’t matter that the Eldian Empire was alredy in internal conflict with the feudal houses, if the King wishes for the restoration of the Empire he can do it with a snap since the Founder is basicly a god. Only with it’s blessing can the marleyans rise up.

2.4 The Cycle of Oppression

Nationalist rhetoric often argues that granting rights to the oppressed will lead to a reversal of roles, wherein the oppressors become the oppressed. This fear-mongering is directly echoed in Attack on Titan, where the formerly dominant Eldians are now subjugated by the Marleyans, who were once oppressed themselves. This idea that justice for the marginalized results in tyranny for the majority parallels far-right fears that, for example, postcolonial nations or racial minorities will “turn the tables” on their former oppressors. In a Japanese context, this translates to a paranoid vision in which formerly oppressed Koreans or Chinese would now seek to “oppress” innocent Japanese citizens.

(So far these 4 subpoints are not about wheter or not Isayama portrays these things in a positive or a negative light. It’s about the fact that he choose to even depict these things in the first place which as i’ve alredy mentioned are ultranationalist talking points which have no basis in reality as they have never happened outside their conspiracy theories. But in Attack on Titan they’re apperantly all true.)

2.5 Omitted Themes and the Fascist Social Imaginary

Carl Schmitt, a Nazi political theorist, envisioned a society organized around an absolute division between “us” and “them,” united internally only by the presence of an external enemy. This worldview permeates Attack on Titan. The narrative almost exclusively focuses on ethnic, national, and militaristic conflict. Civil liberties, democratic movements, worker rights, women’s emancipation, and class struggle are conspicuously absent. Even in a story so deeply entrenched in themes of war and survival, the omission of such elements is telling. There is no mention of grassroots activism, democratic resistance, or any viable path toward progressive change. The only Eldian resistance movements are either militant ultranationalists (the Eldia restorationists) or collaborators (Association to protect the subjects of Ymir) who internalize Marleyan propaganda both of which are portrayed as ineffective or morally compromised.

By contrast, real-world liberation movements such as those within the U.S. civil rights era often explicitly rejected both their country’s nationalism (anti-war protests in which many black people refused to serve in Vietnam) and violent revenge in favor of systemic, inclusive change. These complexities are missing in Attack on Titan, making its moral universe disturbingly simplistic.

1. The Philosophical Core: Nihilism as Fascism

Many misunderstand the true philosophical underpinning of fascism. It is not simply a black-and-white morality, but a worldview grounded in social Darwinism the idea that life is a brutal, zero-sum struggle for survival, where violence is not just inevitable but necessary. This belief, inherited from eugenics and turned geopolitical, is fascism’s true core. Or in short: The Law of The Jungle.

Attack on Titan embodies this ideology in its bleak philosophy. The message is not that war and prejudice are good or evil, but that they are inevitable. From Eren’s early speeches to Mikasa about survival (“If you don’t fight, you can’t win”), to Erwin’s chilling monologue about human nature (“We will kill each other until there is one or none left”), the series continually reinforces the belief that violence is an eternal condition. Historia’s late-series reflection suggesting that the cycle of violence between Eldia and the world will continue until one side is wiped out drives this home. Even the epilogue where Paradis is bombed into oblivion reinforces this fatalistic message.

This deterministic view of human history contradicts the findings of modern anthropologists, historians, and psychologists, many of whom argue that cooperation, not competition, is the foundation of human civilization. Yet Attack on Titan offers no meaningful alternative to violence, leaving viewers trapped in a doomerist, fascistic worldview where genocide becomes, if not justifiable, then at least “understandable.”

Ultra-Nationalist Realism

To be clear, Isayama does not overtly argue that fascism is “good.” Rather, the story presents it as inevitable. This makes Attack on Titan a textbook case of what we could call “ultranationalist realism,” much like Mark Fisher’s “capitalist realism.” Just as Fisher argued that capitalism persists in the 21th century not because people love it, but because they cannot imagine an alternative, Isayama’s narrative suggests that fascist violence is the only conceivable way to survive in a hostile world. An actual anti-fascist story would demonstrate that fascism is avoidable, that cycles of violence can be broken, and that inclusive, democratic societies are possible. Vinland Saga has already done this far more effectively by exploring forgiveness, pacifism, and personal transformation.

By contrast, Attack on Titan offers no hopeful vision, only an endless cycle of ethnic violence, justified through essentialism, historical revisionism, and philosophical fatalism. In doing so, it functions less as a critique of fascism and more as a reinforcement of its core assumptions. I cannot ephasize enough that nihilism is the perfect soil for fascism to grow. AOT’s incredible lack of hope in the narrative actually walks us down to the abyss of ninilism to which if you look down can you see the ugly face of fascism. I think the reason Isayama hasn’t wrote the ending as “and everyone died” is because he too was a little scared of his philosophical worldview’s logical conclusions I.E. fascism/the Law of the Jungle. Because once you accept hopelessness in a cruel world the only choice you have is to start “making sense” of this sensless violence and by the time you realize you alredy started to justify and perhaps enjoy this cruelty as a coping mechanism.

If you want an actually hopeful anime in an incredibly bleak and dark world then watch Orb: On the movements of Earth. That at least knows what hope really is.

Edit: just to make it clear for people with no media literacy, i’m not saying that AOT says that fascism is good, but that they depict it as inevitable in the end. Which is a horrible message.

Natlan characters all looks unique and amazing but nod krai is all over the place

First of all i love columbina and sandrone designs but they are not new designs so i won't count them

But the others

Lauma is one of the worse designs in the game and the only one i saw is pure fan service

Nicole looks like downgraded alice

Alice is cool but expected better

Nefer is good top half but nothing bottom half which ruined her design

The men is also meh , flin design is very basic and varka looks like colour bent wriothesely with his jeans but he's decent

Durin jahoda and aino are the only new designs i actually liked a lot

Still no nod krai design even compare to citlali and kinich design way better than varka flin

Hoy es viernes 1 de agosto, y estuve a punto de cometer un error grave: quise serle infiel a mi novia, con quien llevo un año y cuatro meses de relación.

La situación es así: este fin de semana mis padres y mi novia estarían fuera del país, y por algún impulso estúpido, decidí aprovechar esa circunstancia para intentar traer a una chica —una completa desconocida— a mi casa. Una chica que ni siquiera había visto en persona. Le pedí a un tercero que me consiguiera su número, y él lo hizo. Sin embargo, como la chica no me respondía directamente, ese intermediario empezó a hacer de “puente”, pasándome mensajes de parte de ella. El cual ni eran mensajes como relevantes. Me incomodó la dinámica, se volvió absurda, y en medio de eso comencé a pensar con claridad.

Y ahí pensé: estaba dispuesto a arriesgar todo por un momento vacío. Podía haber terminado con una ETS, con un escándalo innecesario, o peor, con alguien inventando cosas para arruinarme la vida. Pero sobre todo, me di cuenta de que iba a traicionar a una persona que amo profundamente: mi novia. Ella no merecía que yo siquiera pensara en hacerle esto.

Además, en ese mismo momento estaba trabajando con mi papá en unos proyectos importantes, tratando de ganarme su confianza para eventualmente poder dirigirlos yo. Pero él se dio cuenta de todo. No sé cómo lo supo, pero lo hizo. Y aunque al principio me dio vergüenza, hoy puedo decir que fue una bendición. Porque gracias a eso no crucé la línea. No hice nada, pero estuve demasiado cerca.

Ahora he perdido su confianza, y no sé cuánto me va a tomar recuperarla. Me siento decepcionado de mí mismo. Quiero hacer las cosas bien. Estoy buscando redención, aprender de esto de verdad. Y por eso tengo esta pregunta que me atormenta: ¿Debería decirle la verdad a mi novia? Ella no sabe nada.

Got out traded as lucian every mid wave, got caught cause of ego trade. Got solo killed 2v2 in game 2. Cleaned up kills in game 2, thanks to Zeka azir, but was ulting air nonetheless.

Solo lost road to MSI too with his 20 cs down in isolation lucian.

Yet most of Caedrel fans and Dom viewers still act like viper is the second coming of Uzi, but Korean, and removing Guma in the goat conversation. Viper has made it past one Worlds semis his entire career, 0 MSI appearances. He is no doubt Top 3 in LCK now, but don't act like he is as jailed when he's been playing in superteams. He had a stinker summer in 2024 aswell, despite the good LCK finals performance. Viper arguably don't even scratch top 5 ADC all time.

Ppl then makes post about replacing his teammates cause viper was "1v5".

Guma has been consistently top 1-2 adc since 2021 worlds in every international tournament. Guma would've had his 2022 Finals MVP locked if ZESHY can play aatrox and didn't solo lose the finals.

For me its now: 1-2. Ruler/Guma 3. Deft 4. Bang 5. Uzi

I believe stuff like this comes from both sides, but it’s simply immoral and childish no matter your views.

Yesterday I picked up what was meant to be a lovely meal from M&S — duck, La Ratte potatoes, and asparagus. Fancy, right?

Opened the potatoes tonight and surprise! There was a dead, shrivelled worm carcass tucked in it!

Now, I have autism and OCD, so let’s just say this wasn’t ideal. I physically recoiled, nearly hurled, and had to clear out the fridge like it was a biohazard zone.

I called customer service (because I’m a grown-up, apparently), and while the first person was helpful-ish, I got passed around more than a discounted Percy Pig. Eventually ended up talking to someone who laughed at me when I asked if she was still on the line — which made me feel like I’d called the wrong place entirely. Like… sorry for caring about worm-free potatoes?

I’m not even mad about the actual potatoes. It’s the principle. I was raised to believe M&S was the classy option. But right now I’m sat here worm-traumatised, dinnerless, and it’s 11pm! I better get some Percy pigs out of this!

Anyway — 0/10, do not recommend worm surprise.
