i want there to be a horror film where this guy gets gradually more and more obsessed with a manic pixie dream girl and everyone thinks he’s going to kill her or kidnap her but it turns out she is literally a psychotic pixie girl who crams hallucinogenic pixie dust down his throat until he gags and forces him to dance with her in a fairy ring until he is weak with exhaustion and desperate to escape. she then rips into his flesh with sharp, needle-thin teeth, her smile painted red, and after the credits roll we watch her approach a boy reading Bukowski in a bookstore, and all we see is his sudden, adoring gaze, and the slow stretch of her smile

terrorist attack in portland…white man murdered (slit throats) two ppl trying to defend Muslim women..

where is his mug shot?

Just so everyone knows, this isn’t making local headlines. This is not being acknowledged enough! I saw two vague reports about it, but nothing else. This is a huge headline and none of the main news channels are covering it!!

Fun fact: the Christian Cross is literally a degradation of Women. The cross is a re-hash of the Ankh, the Feminine symbolism was removed (the uterus round part) leaving only the masculine symbolism. Plus it’s blasphemous, disharmonious and a lie.

Um…. pretty sure Christians use crosses cause Jesus was crucified on the cross and it’s a symbol of his sacrifice aka the love of God.

@christowitch Maybe you could shed some light on this?

The cross was a T shape that’s people were nailed too but when Jesus was crucified they went a step farther and made it a t shape to tack his name onto to further humiliate him.

So pretty much…. it’s got nothing to do with what this anon mentioned.

#actual medical facts time: As far as I know, the crucifying cross was very purposefully designed, but it has nothing to do with an ankh and everything to do with torture. I’ve tagged this as torture and gore, so if you’re triggered by that, please don’t read any further.

As we know, in order to be crucified, you’d have your arms nailed with hands outstretched and your feet nailed at the bottom. As gravity does its thing, you’re basically left to alternate between the pain of attempting to pull yourself up with your hands/arms, or push yourself upwards with your feet. As your chest muscles are stretched like this, and in such excruciating pain, your pecs and the muscles between each rib that all you to properly expand and contract your chest for breathing seize up. In order to get each breath, you must lift yourself up by either arms or feet, and it’s easy to see why a person would fatigue from that quickly. Carbon dioxide builds up in the lungs, and lacking oxygen, you pretty much die from suffocation, or in some cases, heart failure due to fluid build up in the chest cavity. It gets worse for special cases, but I think that’s enough of an explanation.

So that’s why it’s shaped the way it is, my friends. Because when it came to death and punishment, the Romans were creative and straight up brutal.
