held off on getting a Switch 2, but if this is a Metroid Dread sequel I have no choice but to cave 😢

speaking generally, I think the no. 1 thing you can do as a cis ally is help a trans woman get a job

A single company should not be able to consolidate, then close, an entire industry. An industry they only bought their way into because they moved first on enterprise software in the 90s. I've said it before and I'll say it again: nationalize Microsoft.

they are going to make me crack my phone in half before the end of the year

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

This may be terrible advice, but buy yourself the damn shrimp. Buy it twice in one day if you can afford it. Not buying the shrimp isn't going to save you enough to buy a house and they're going to find another way to denigrate you regardless. And then you'll be slandered and shrimpless.

Aww the co-creator of FTL came out as trans and issued an update for the first time in years just to change her name in it 😭 love that game.

who up Foxing they Tobeys

me when Phoebe Bridgers drops a new song (new album in august!)

mayor for life 💪

Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

I think the thing I like the most about Claire Valdez is that she not only takes bold stands in support of trans people, but that when people on the right try to use those positions to attack her, she's just like, "yes, that is correct."

i never thought it would happen to me but AI is taking my job

[don draper voice] tony is more than a mascot, he's our inner beast...our id. it's an archetype as old as storytelling...beauty and the beast. the nurturing feminine wants to tame wild masculinity, to domesticate it...to feed it breakfast...

the best chance the Prairieland anti-ICE protesters have is that we keep their names and their case on our lips as we eventually move to a post-Trump era, that we fight for their pardon as an essential part of departing from fascism.

it is bugfuck that I have been transitioning for almost 10 years BTW. what a blessing to be alive in this wonderful world

my brain melts under hot weather, luckily coinciding with Pride month (if you're not a Happy Gay you're failing), my birthday (time to reflect on shortcomings and failures), which falls on Father's Day week (lol) cosmically rancid vibes. cry through and try to be happy later I guess

holy moly June is bad this year. depression hitting me like a train. i’m dying over here

lmao damn I'm depressed as hell tonight 😎 emergency chocolate cake doordash while the serotonin factory is on strike

persecution

whenever it gets really hot in the summer I start looking up other cities' weather forecasts to make myself mad

You used to go to websites and they would have guestbooks that people would sign like it was a bed and breakfast

sliced turkey is lowkey goated when cold cuts are the vibe

Of 1.1m Facebook followers, 6600 engaged. On Bluesky, 19k engaged. <10% of the followers, but almost 3x more real humans engaged What's the point of a million followers if your reach is being strangled? Remember when the Internet was a place where following someone meant seeing their posts?

This is still an all timer from her tbh

brown recluse bite, get rekt loser

The animation chat has me thinking one telling thing - in the years since AI arrived, there's not been a ground-up indie phenomenon, like we saw with earlier tech (Flash, etc). It hasn't unlocked anyone's creativity. For all the anti-gatekeeping rhetroic, nothing anyone cares about has been born.

jesus christ. $300 price increase for a machine that's been on the market for almost 3 years

i made it home and my key won’t open my lock 🙃

70 more mins since this was posted btw. i have had a bad time on every airline but i have never ever had a good time on Southwest

just landed to 4 more hours of flight delays, which puts me at 20 for the week 💀

never fucking forgive them for what they've done to the computer

Libs are really like, "Barney Frank was right. He's been advocating for an incremental approach to transgender rights for several decades now, dating all the way back to when transgender people had more rights."

none of it. i take that $15 and invest in myself. never stop grinding

greatest comic of all time. the arc of the universe bent to produce these four perfect panels

Every single show in this 25-year-old promo has either been recently revived or never stopped airing

credit where it's due, she's kinda cookin with this one

I used to think this was a funny meme account, then I found out it's one of the very best art accounts on this website. holy smokes

ELON: christopher nolin is desocrating Homer the Odyssey just to qualify for woke oscars award.. only thing he care is industy clout CHRISTOPHER NOLAN (looking at a bunch of clocks he's modified so they're all going at different speeds): haha yes.... hell yeah...

furthermore Charlie brown does in fact have hoes

mashed the follow button so hard my screen cracked

sorry if i made anyone feel bad for finding bubsy hot. my target is atari doing this shit, not you, but also like are you for fucking real right now you had it coming

Gwen did a fantastic job reporting on what has genuinely become an internal refugee crisis among trans people. I know I complain about Sound Transit and bike infrastructure or whatever a lot but like, making my move to Seattle when I did saved my life.

not saying this is "good" but these days I'm happier to see ineptitude than competence

a friend who is leaving in 2 weeks just got an email from his doctor today telling him to refill ASAP because Oklahoma is on the verge of banning HRT for adults I don't know how we're supposed to live like this

just realized Phoebe Bridgers hasn't released a solo album since Punisher in 2020 (though she's done a ton of collabs) TBH, if she vanished for the next 5 years, she'd still probably be my favorite musician of the decade. Punisher is that good

increasingly possible 2028 is AOC vs Rubio. 4 years of Trump/Miller racial pogroms culminating in debates where both candidates yell at each other in Spanish Possibly the most humiliating, demoralizing outcome for the white nationalists who are the bedrock of the MAGA coalition

yeah, this is the other piece of it: "claiming victory and refusing to give anyone else a win" is a key component of the iranian regime, especially when it comes to the united states and israel for domestic reasons they can't really do what he wants here even if it would help resolve things
