Like, we gotta find homegirl an alternate evolution, stat.

Kanto Ninetales desprately needs fire/fairy to give it something to compete with Arcanine.

I feel so bad for the Bellsprout convinced she’ll grow up to be a beautiful flower.

(Alexandristas? AOCistas?)

Someone who is good at photoshop please cook up an AOC version of this

“Give me D+15 and 65% disproval…I’ll get you Blansas and Blississippi”

They like Trump and want him to rule us like a king.

This is reinforcing my belief that "Jewish organizations would truly be lucky if Mamdani were the leading pro-Palestine politician in the United States, and going after him the way they have is not just morally wrong, but strategically misguided in a way that will endanger Jews for years to come."

They have the right to strike. I do not have to give a shit about their demands though.

Mamdani: I cannot help but think of the words of our 40th president, Ronald Reagan. He famously said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are 'I'm from the govt & I'm here to help'" I think nine more terrifying words are actually, "I worked all day and can't feed my family"

It concerns me that there isn’t a lot of 2024 remorse that I ever hear. You know? In the early 2000s, repentant Nader voters were everywhere. Bush was worse than people expected, Gore was becoming a progressive hero, and people were willing to say “I thought they were the same. I made a mistake.”

"and the representative character of the tech guys trying to turn the federal government into their personal empire will be named Augustus Dorko"

It is kinda funny that in targeting a ferociously conservative state Dov also targeted one that has integrated a large & complex ethnic minority with unusual success (Oklahoma government is full of Native guys who are also hardcore Republicans!)

The most important thing to appreciate about America is that it is Very Large. This is good, but also, bad

We are going to elect our War Jacobin Queen and she is going to fucking destroy these people.

Stylized, low-fi graphics >>>

The Trump administration will not rest until every elite institution has purged itself of black people. ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

on the one hand, it's a straightforward anti-corruption play that incentivizes better qualified people to want to stay in government. on the other hand, These Motherfuckers

this has got to be the worst time in american history to make the totally sensible and correct argument that we should pay people in congress more than we do

remember when sword art online had the really rad idea of what if everyone was trapped in an MMO, so errant choices about bodies and even genders became locked into stone for people's actual lives and then the author was like, "Then the villain makes them all look like themselves"

Mickiewicz wrote entire cycle of sonnets how now Tatar cities are ruins occupied by bandits and wild beasts, and how he is mourning them as a giaur.

"Catherine was awful but the one good thing she did is genocide the Crimean Tatars" wow well done bringing some really classic 19th century islamophobia back into play, Westerners outdo themselves every day

westerners condemn non-Christian slavery without endorsing genocide challenge - difficulty level: impossible

war between england, france, germany, and poland is unthinkable today. the european union has made war. between centuries-old enemies. pointless while russia has self-isolated from the prosperity of cooperation. it festers in the corner. seething as its old colonies thrive with equals. not a master

I think the data center backlash is also spooking a lot of folks, and that’s not going away either because data centers provide a lot of negative externalities and very little benefit to local communities “we’re gonna make your lives worse and more expensive”: somehow, not a popular message

The present makes me really understand Adorno. Like yeah my man everything is fascist actually and everyone is secretly a fascist and every new movie and song and book and social media trend is a sign society is decaying into fascism

Sweaty blacksmith women working HARD in your area!!!

OC repost -Sabre A lady of the best cat talents used selfishly and the worst traits being the reason why she cant keep a day job

Ripping off the dress she found herself in only for a skimpier version appear, she hustled out of the bedroom to find the rest of the home a labyrinth. "C'mon, babe," he told her, "just try it out for a while. It'll be like the LARPs we did...remember your character? The female elf ranger?"

Guy falls asleep after a breakup text and wakes up as a beautiful woman. In bed is a demon version of his high school best friend. "So...remember the bet we made? That we'd date each other if we were still no GF in our 30s? Well that shit never expired. And I'm not gay, so...good morning, sweetie~"

The craziest thing about the AI boosters is when they say “you can’t do this without AI” “I can’t make an event flyer without AI” when we all remember just 3 years ago how we all got along fine without it.

A notable feature of AI is that it has changed the nature of what feels amateurish. It used to be that a poster made by someone who didn’t know what they were doing would be comic sans on clipart, which was at least charming. Now it’s that creepy Ghibli-knockoff style and lots of greebly overdetail.

I know it's almost laughable to ask Americans to seriously think about these things but what was done on Iraqi soul was the most egregious kind of violation. Bad enough for the US to exert such undue presence in Iraq already, but using it to help an aggressor state invade and establish secret bases?

I follow like 4 different mutuals with kinks that I don’t have out of sheer academic interest. I’m sitting here with my champagne looking at macro furry art going “not my fetish, but fascinating. This has taught me a lot…”

(scrolling Bluesky) I reject the premise. I reject the premise. Granted. I reject the premise. Not my fetish. Granted. I reject the premise. Funny. I reject the premise.

in pleasanter news i just learned the GDQ banned hogwarts legacy from all future events and that's lovely. see how easy it is to just have a few principles?

“This is for gooners!” Feminine sexuality and body confidence is allowed to exist and be represented without being judged by whether or not the most putrid men want to jerk off to it. Women do not exist for male consumption. We’re allowed to express ourselves FOR ourselves and each other.

if tumblr leftists cared as much about "intersectionality" as we are expected to believe, we'd see much more criticism of bespoke US union rules that benefit older, straight white men over all other workers... but that would require critical thinking and research, which is uncool

the transphobic movement is hand in hand with the fascist obsession with birth rates and it's all just racism all the way down

I think a number of straight boys watching at home don't comprehend what it is they're seeing. It's a show that, from a character design standpoint, obviously loves women, but that love is not even a little bit "gooner" tinged. bsky.app/profile/tran...

Honestly if I didn't know any better I would have assumed Gameoverse was created by a woman. Maybe a sapphic woman, but a woman. I can't quite explain it, but there's a background feminine energy I find inviting as a woman.

That is brilliant (fucking terrible)

when she says "i want a body like mewtwo" okay then i've got some fetish astronauts on cue and we're gonna make this happen babe

'Did you finish making the anti-vaping ad?' 'Sure did boss, real fuckin sexy, just like you asked.' 'What...?'

I think you overestimate marketing people's ability to recognize that horror movie shit is horny for certain kinds of weirdos.

this drug psa is a fetish ad
