RIGHT! Infuriates me when people call Maka sensitive for the way she views her father. While we, the audience, get to see Spirit as just a silly little guy who’s heart is in the right place (sometimes), she views him as the person who cheated on her mother and likes to act like a fool. He seems upset that Maka views him in this light, but he never fixes up his behavior, only ever trying to take actions instead to win over Maka’s affection. (Giving Maka gifts, going out together, and very loud praise.)
I think if he actually talked to Maka outside of his protective dad persona, he’d get a lot farther with trying to have a better relationship with his daughter. And maybe Maka could cope in healthier ways with what happened.
honestly both of maka’s parents suck in different ways im glad she got a second pair
『 don’t you want to be our friend? forever and ever? 』
Is there anything I can do to help Palestinians besides call my representatives and beg them to stop killing people?
This is a great question. There are a few things you can do—just off the top of my head:
BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) https://bdsmovement.net/
Direct Action https://www.palestineaction.org/
Urge your University/School/Organization to put out a statement denouncing Israel
Organize a Protest/Participate in a local one
You might already be doing this but while calling your reps, tell them that as a voter, you're unwilling to support them in the upcoming election unless they urge the White House to take a stand against Israel and stop funding them
Share art/writing/films around Palestinian culture
If you're part of a union, ask them what they're doing to urge their industry leaders to take a stand against Israel + pressure the White House OR urge them to start a strike/walkout/etc if they're not doing anything already
Talk with your friends IRL about Palestine, whether in an activist capacity or watching a movie or literally anything
Reach out to a mosque to see if you can help them with anything
See if your city/state council has put out a statement in support of Gazans. If not, try to push them to do so.
Donate to Palestine Legal or Direct Action if you have some money to spare
KEEP TALKING ON SOCIAL MEDIA!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know some of these don't feel like they have as big of an impact on helping Palestinians, but we do need to make an effort not to forget their humanity in the face of continued erasure and the media's sensationalist rhetoric.
Talking on social media and posting—while not seeming like a lot—does SO much. I know in USAmerica, it's like yelling into a void, but political analysts are saying that most of the "Global South" has completely lost any amount of goodwill it may have had the past few years. Hopefully, countries will start to put sanctions and embargoes en masse on the US and Israel soon.
Our goals here are BOTH short-term and long-term. We hope for the life and liberation of the Palestinian people, so anything that you can think of might help at some point in the future is encouraged to at least try.
If anyone else has any more ideas, feel free to reblog and add on. Thank you for asking, and here is to a liberated Palestine where Palestinians can live and thrive without fear.
OBJECTIONNN YOUR HONOR

Please support your black/brown cosplayers by calling out the racists in the comments calling them the “n” word or the ones doing blackfishing, Or call them the “ghetto version of ____.” The majority of anime characters are Asian anyway.
Please support your Asian cosplayers by calling out the Asian fishers, those lying about their nationality (you’d be surprised at how many white cosplayers claim to be Asian or part Asian just to get a pass at Asianfishing), and ESPECIALLY those who cosplay or wear sexualized “kawaii” cosplays and monetize it for their OF. Yes this includes doing ahegao. We literally had a massacre of Asian women due to the hypersexualization and yall still wanna make money off of us like that.
Support us by calling them out. And if they don’t act right, then take down their page. Make their egos and wallets hurt. They do not deserve the attention and money for being absolute waste of space. I’ll fucking list names if I have to.
chikage f/cked up in his introduction big time and i feel like the crime of kidnapping izumi is genuinely unforgivable and the only reason she doesn’t have ptsd is 1) she’s fictional 2) she’s a bit too much of a theater idiot who believes unconditionally in her actors
but aside from that all i have seen from him is pretty neat, he is nice, he’s got comebacks, he’s got depth
so after him and kumon i am not too excited to read azami and guy’s part of the main story tbh
