My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

Gal Gadot was a soldier in an army actively committing genocide/leading the world in murdering children, and she spews their genocidal propaganda every chance she gets. Rachel Zegler said "free Palestine." Guess which of them is being demonized!
the comments under every one of Rachel Zegler's posts on every platform are a terrifying misogynistic racist cesspool and yet instead of doing anything whatsoever to support her disney is throwing her under the bus. it's not surprising but it is absolutely heinous

Thread: pollsters are asking inaccurate and at times deeply derogatory questions about Trump’s anti-trans policies.
This is producing results that create an appearance that a majority of Americans like what Trump is doing.

a good rule of thumb is that any post that includes the phrase "this is what got us Trump," or some variation of such, is going to be bullshit unless it has a _fuckton_ of asterisks.

I do think it’s funny when the car companies are like “we may be divided but now more than ever, I think we can all agree: car ❤️”

I’ve been seeing that clip of Elon getting booed at Dave Chappelle’s show two years ago and what’s been sticking with me about isn’t just how utterly humiliating it is for Musk, but how absolutely embarrassing it is for Chappelle to think his big stadium audience would be excited to see Musk

roughly a month in, I'm still in the "show up and do something, anything" phase of my fitness journey but I'm really hoping it becomes fruitful in the future

naima akef's rendition of aziza was life changing. my favorite dancers are the ones who you can see music moving through even when the video is muted.

wondering if since most of my moots didn't make the move over here if I should just drop the stan format and make this a page where I gush about oriental dance

a key take away from reading a lot of history for me:
the people who survive hard times and eventually brutally humiliate their seemingly invincible enemies are not the people whose first response to adversity is “oh well, guess I’ll die”

the holidays were hard. so many mini vacations where I eat and don't work out. I keep losing streaks. somehow I found it easier to get some squats in at work?

one of my favorite quote is “choose your hard” going to the gym is hard, but not having a healthy body is harder.
and that gets me up every time.

It sounds hacky the first time(s?) you hear it. But discipline absolutely is more helpful than motivation. I'm not motivated to go to the gym 6 days a week. But my discipline gets me there on the days I'm not motivated (and it's plenty.) i walk to the gym when is -5°. That's not motivation.

my interest in the traditional music and dance that informs raqs sharqi has dulled my interest in 'fusion' belly dance but I still want to dance to other music.
so this is kind of the angle I'm coming into jazz from.
I already know this is not going to be the same journey.

you can't get toned in a week. but you can build a streak in that time. build those streaks then streak those streaks.

the execution of my "diy" christmas theme parallels my standards for cohesiveness on an album. I only really "handmade" two gifts, gathered some things I already own to repurpose as gifts, and purchased a few while getting crafty with the packaging for all of them.
so very lax.

4 times in a week. I'm so bad with this bc this is a milestone for me. If you need motivation to exercise today: there's no motivation like a streak!
I wanna see if having a streak motivates me to work out in the future. yesterday I rested bc I needed to rest before I could group my muscles accordingly but it's my second day working out in a 3 day span 😊

A Christmas Carol is the scariest ghost story about the scariest fear known to humankind, wasting your life
I was always puzzled by that "scary ghost stories" line as well, but someone explained it as Dickens' Christmas Carol. Not sure how scary it is, but I guess it qualifies as a ghost story.

mega successful dance innovator or not it's still crazy that this generation's refusal to let moves have an impact and need to get in front of the music to compete with tiktok algorithms got me looking into the back catalog of a one hit wonder from the pre-thriller mtv era
toni basil is unironically one of the early pioneers of the dance video. you wouldn't have guessed but dance in pop culture entertainment is six degrees of toni basil.
