if you wanna learn more about sámi history and reality from actual sámi sources btw i would recommend sametinget’s website, mitt sápmi on instagram (it’s in swedish, but i would still like to recommend it), timimie märak’s instagram (they’re a queer sámi activist and artist), the samediggi website, samer.se has an english language information pdf here. these are some starting points, there are tons of other sources of information of course.

one thing I really like in the Norwegian language is the word for "cookies". because it's not a translation of the thing you eat, but rather a description of what it actually is: information capsules (informasjonskapsler).

Description:

Why are all the good people staying out of Hawai‘i?

1. The US Navy has contaminated water with cancer-causing jet fuel and covered it up just as schools and farmers raise concern.
2. Food and water are expensive because tourists overrun grocery stores — with some areas now having to ration and tourists getting priority.
3. The cost of living sky-rockets. Airbnb kills good hotel jobs and moves money offshore, and homelessness rises with over 50% being Native Hawai‘ians.
4. Social media of tourists harassing endangered animals, destroying reefs and cultural sites, and treating locals rudely are increasing anti-tourist sentiment.
5. Suffering under contamination, colonization, capitalism, and ongoing pandemics, revolutionary groups grow as Hawai‘ians beg tourists to pause visits.
6. Hawai‘i is a soverign kingdom occupied by the US and colonized after rich businessmen overthrew the Queen by threatening to murder her people. The people are tired of being exploited and gaslit.

i think it’s really funny when fandom people make fun of nonfandom people for not recognizing a fandom url. shit like “jackstanifold” or “strifesuccubus” or “hobocop” are not immediately recognizable as fandom references dude

“how did you not immediately recognize tumblr user ‘bigbluesoup’ as a fandom reference 😂” girl how was i expected to.

anyways put in the tags if you have a fandom url and how recognizable you think it is

REMEMBER. If you’re ever in an awkward, bad, or otherwise unpleasant situation. You can always make it worse by meowing
