Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.

  • ✅ New Malcolm In The Middle episodes
  • ✅ New Scrubs episodes
  • ✅ New war in the Arabian Peninsula, started by the shittiest president in US history
  • ✅ Rampant homophobia and transphobia
  • Probably more, idk

I think we're a few years out from that, feels more like 1936-ish, like the Italian invasion of Ethiopia

The Italian invasion of Ethiopia I’d say is Russia in Ukraine.

We’re at the beginning of the appeasement of Trump.

So. 1936ish feels apt, but … once he goes for Cuba it’s 1939

I have the Russian invasion of Ukraine as the Japanese occupation of Manchuria. It's not really a close match because it's not as much of a proxy war, but it does match with imperial powers expanding their territories to their neighbors

That’s a pretty good comparison, I just likening it solely on the basis of “supposed military power gets repeatedly embarrassed by numerically inferior enemy”

Yeah, it's never quite an exact match, it just rhymes!

I actually lost my will to live in 2016. I've been a zombie for the last 10 years.
