And this is why aliens had to build that one specific pyramid 4500 years ago

Support independent media, now more than ever. Not just news and politics, but film, TV, fashion and other cultural criticism and commentary, from podcasts to apps to good old-fashioned web sites. Pay for it. Turn your adblocker off so they can keep the lights on. Share it.

We're seeing the ACTUAL solution (or at least a more viable one now) with musicians geo-blocking Israel and removing work from Spotify. Its content creators who need to lead this, for better or worse.

If fat ballet is your thing btw, there's a docuseries that's roughly 10 years old about an all fat cast of Swan Lake.

the challenge that's harder for most people isn't just the "unsubscribing to (x) platform" its the need to also avoid all its content. We've seen this stuff with JKR, try telling Disney/MCU adults they can't have their toys

NZ's first non binary MP was recently pushed out of Parliament. We should all be disgusted. It's not a coincidence, it's part of a growing movement to attack any minorities representing our people.

I adore libraries. So much so I upended my life and my husband’s so I could go back to work at one. There are like 16 reasons I did not do that in the US, but funding is a big one. IMLS was cut. Lots of libraries were already battening down the hatches, slashing basic services, hours. Staff.

YOU can “just” go to the library. You can “just” turn on PBS. You should be grateful for this and defend that ability. But you should know others are already losing it.

the album Hiss by Wormrot (2022)

Omelas, except instead of a single small child, it’s a single billionaire, and instead of torture, it’s having all their assets liquidated to pay for public infrastructure and makeup tax deficits.

plans for tonight: crumb some schnitzel and make mash play the new(ish) Deep Rock Galactic game Maybe watch some more Severance or BIG MEATY MEN SLAPPING MEAT I want some quite joy, the news is cruel and full of spite

Like homophobia and transphobia, fat phobia is not actually actually a phobia at all. It’s not a *fear* of fat people (or trans people or gay people). It’s HATRED and CONTEMPT for anyone who doesn’t fit inside capitalism’s strictly enforced hegemonic hierarchy of patriarchy and consumption.

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

were to be around him at any time for any reason due to his habitual sexual harassment and assaults. Frank Miller released one of the most savagely Islamophobic comics of all time, HOLY TERROR, and still works with DC. There are pedophiles, war criminals, confessed sexual predators on staff.

Audre told us.

These look to have enough use that people might actually want them I'm terrified

@zyla.top showing me a whole bunch of #Gundam shows and I'm just sitting here unable to believe they are getting away with character names like "Balthazar Q. Flaxseed" and "Gatorade Juicebar". "Tititicia Bluecrozz-Bleusheld" "Lemony Piledriver" "Betraya X. Quisling"

The Aotearoa Gender Attitudes Survey results are out and they are... revealing. Nothing surprising though, if you've been paying attention to trends overseas. genderequal.nz/ga-survey/

Some numbers: 46% of New Zealanders think that gender equality has been achieved 33% of male respondents aged 18-34 believe that gender equality has gone too far 47% of men believe Gender Equality has been achieved for senior management 40% don’t believe that sexism is still a significant issue

fuck capitalism and I don't dream of labor etc but also it turns out working all day instead of staring into my phone for 18 hours a day reading the worst shit imaginable is actually helpful for my mental health

👇 Seymour said this yesterday when asked about recognising Palestine, and I really wish the media had followed up with: "You realise you just described Israel, right?" #nzpol

Hey #BOTY #Kikorangi, just a reminder from Peppy that I have a LOT of native bird enamel pins and sticker designs...while I may not have EVERY bird, I do give a portion of profits to Trees That Count every month. Snag some goodies, support a local artist, and celebrate birds! pepperraccoon.com

Porn bans are explicitly anti-LGBTQIA+

Critical detail: they’re also defining “being trans” as inherently pornographic and thus attempting to ban people from being openly trans in an attempt to - say it with me now - push trans people out of public life.

Calling peoples' employers in a rage because their tributes to Robert Redford weren't horny enough
