any discussion of puritanism in teenagers that ignores the current conservative political climate is dishonest at best too, because even teens who arent raging against political correctness are being instructed to become more conservative anyway.

also ppl who argue gen z are disgusted by sex seem to be unwilling to accept that queerness has become synonymous with pornography itself, and that the anti sex backlash might be very closely linked to anti queerness.

i have three brothers (15, 22, 29) who are all gen z. my 15 year old brother is going to have a very different relationship to sex and sexuality than my 29 year old brother. and yet, theyre both gen z. so what do we mean when we talk about 'gen z's problem with sex'?

Last week, a white racist man was killed in front of his white racist ilk by a white man raised in a white racist family. Now, Black, Latine, queer, trans, disabled, and migrant people are being doxxed, harassed, threatened, and fired. Never doubt that this is a white supremacist country again.

The reaction Disney fans are having makes think maybe the Harry Potter fans are just bigots who don’t care after all.

I'm gonna say it

there should be more lesbian media

🐇📚 Piranesi by Susanna Clarke to repeat something i said to a friend, i genuinely think this is one of the most impressive and emotionally impactful works of fantasy I've read in the last decade. a few extra thoughts, including some spoilers: app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/d599...

lrt: I really appreciate those content warnings at the start of silent hill f and i hope more games take a page out of its book

just learned about the content warning that open Silent Hill f and this feels like it comes from a parallel world where AAA games took on a whole different meaning for "mature" damn. more of this approach please

did not realize i left this website logged in last time i used it. convenient

drawing them again :3

SHOT MY NECK INTO PIECES MY NAME IS CHARLIE KIRK MASSIVE GUNSHOT I'M BLEEDING WIFE'S ON THE GRIFT, BARELY SPENT AN HOUR GRIEVING

super hans was right

the logic here is that charlie kirk must be nationally eulogized in the name of freedom of speech but everyone who supported palestinians against genocide must be permanently excommunicated from public life and also it is leftists' fault for both

Opinion: Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was shot in Utah by a cisgender man, but trans Americans were wrongly dragged into the tragedy by misinformation and amplified by conspiracists and bigots. An apology and respect is owed, writes Marie-Adélina de la Ferrière.

Everything is just this, forever

Hey by the way, Jo Murray not only never commented on George Floyd but also posted her big attention-seizing official pivot to TERFism right in the middle of that national moment

If you're as angry as I am about how our trans brothers & sisters were treated this week, remember that not all of them got the loving parents we did & end up on the streets. Maybe today is a great day to donate to a local shelter & give trans kids a roof over their heads and the love they deserve.

All I saw was cheesecake boat and ocean for at least 5 minutes

does anyone else notice that every single thing around national birth rate panics carries the implication that there needs to be state enforcement of getting women to bear individual men's children and not like a massive welfare system and national sperm cryopreservation to be accessed on demand

Just an FYI the article above HAS been updated as of September 5th! So be sure to check for your state and plan accordingly!

Fuck these guys too.

We’re peacefully protesting for our neighbors. What does ICE do? Pick us up and throw us on the ground. No arrest, no identification, no process.

TIL that for some people with irreparably damaged corneas, you can pull one of their teeth, drill a hole in it, install an artificial lens, sew it into their cheek (so tissue attaches), then pull it out and stick it in their damaged eye, and ... it works fine!?! www.nbcboston.com/news/health/...

posters joking about charlie kirk were held to a higher standard than the wall street journal this week

Something I’ve noticed an alarming amount in queer spaces is that trans women just don’t tend to be taken seriously. Which, to be clear, is absolutely misogyny. Treating women like women should not mean recreating patriarchy in a space that’s supposed to be free of it

"rest in piss"-gate has turned into a moderation nightmare for bluesky, which nonetheless refuses to explain its underlying rationale even as (or perhaps because) it seems to be changing in real time. after my own suspension, I spoke to dozens of people who got in trouble for using the same phrase

Bluesky really doesn't want people to say "rest in piss" about Charlie Kirk aftermath.site/bluesky-char...

🫩

There are two things here that really stick out to me: Transmisogyny and the constant urge from the right to violently upend and destroy the lives of random trans women The unaddressed (and growing) issue of compulsive gambling in American society, core to the backbone of a failing economy

i cannot comprehend what this means

382 lovely indie games for $8! All proceeds support UNRWA USA’s humanitarian aid in Palestine. ♥️🖤🤍💚

Excited for tomorrow's Nintendo Direct to opening up with Miyamoto going "This is Miyamoto. My mother once fed me a single piece of corn as a child. I was confused by its existence. Please enjoy the Virtual Boy titles we are adding to Nintendo Switch Online." and that's it.

Oh, hey. Visa and Mastercard now say you can't pay for WoW. Magic the Gathering. FFXIV. DnD. Lord of the Rings. Because they're all "adult" content against their ToS just for being "fantasy". Let that sink in. Spread this like wildfire and have people in those circles call them. No quarter.

counterpoint: these exact same losers say the exact same thing every time anybody talks back or puts a girl in a video game or whatever so i don't think the liberal urge to performatively flinch at the canned backlash is a useful reflex in 2025

a bit ago the organizerz for my cities pride parade reached out to commission a sticker design for the event & i just remembered im allowed to post it now teehee

Hello Zenos ppl

🐇📚 Incidents Around the House by Josh Malerman i liked this a lot. i think Malerman is very good at Metaphors For Trauma. app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/e7ec...

Show him the same dignity and respect he showed others in the position he thought he'd never be in.
