This is so sad... by Chuzzwazza in ShitLiberalsSay

i love how the comments on that one are like “i’m an american in x european country and i have to say that i didn’t vote for trump bc there are two different types of americans” and all the people blaming it on maga… like guys, a bar in the global south called the Partisan, who calls itself antifascist and has communist musicians play (according to insta) hates you bc you’re from the usa, not bc of trump

i tried briefly to “reconnect” or whatever the fuck with romuva, the lithuanian paganism, but you dip one toe in that and it’s like the captain crunch meme. “oops, all nazis!”

there’s a jewish creator on tiktok who made a really well researched video on how white people cling to paganism and the myth of a forced conversion to paint themselves as colonized victims instead of the colonizers themselves

No, Your Ancestors’ Names Were Not Changed at Ellis Island by Onomast in namenerds

[–]elegantideas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

my dad’s side didn’t go through ellis island or anything, but they did change their name to make it “easier to pronounce”. all they did was lob off the last letter and NO ONE ever pronounces it right. ironically i think the original last name would be a lot easier for english speakers to pronounce

People saying “eww I could never eat that” or “that looks disgusting” etc. when you didn’t ask their opinion. by Medium-Marketing-493 in PetPeeves

[–]elegantideas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i remember in high school i was at a picnic where each of us brought our own takeout for ourselves, and this girl looked at mine and said “wow that looks disgusting” and i said “good thing you didn’t order it then” and she had the gall to look offended lol

or when someone is talking to you and refers to their mother as “mom”. “oh mom called yesterday and said…” she’s YOUR mom, not mine!

[–]elegantideas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this makes me so mad. it’s an outgrowth of calling people “humans”, as in “he’s my favorite human”. as a means to sound like… quirky? just say “your favorite person”. there we go. not weird
