Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

I mean, stanc*l could focus on doing the work instead of arguing w Native American folk for a whole day claiming that they don’t care about native issues bc they asked him not to call them “the Indians” And saying things like this But nah folks outside of MN are responsible for folks forgetting MN

Y'all if you think people should talk more about the Epstein files, a thing you can do is talk more about the Epstein files. Not go around and make sad noises about how everything that happens that impacts millions of people is a distraction from the Epstein files.

I love seeing them love on each other

Your Friendly (hush 😝) Neighborhood Bronxite is here to answer this question!! The Bronx has its name because of the wealthy man (and his family) that settled it — Jonas Bronck (his family being the Broncks). Unlike Manhattan, The Bronx was mostly farmland and the wealthy only vacationed there +

I've said this before but I truly believe we could revitalize YA and kidlit overnight by switching to MMPB and paperback first. Kids want paperbacks! It is by far the biggest request I get from teen readers.

My fav reason to detest Gene Simmons has to be his son Nick. A life of privilege and obscene ego created the most embarrassing attempt of nepotism ever. In 2009 Nick released a comic that got some hype, “Incarnate”. That idiot decided to swipe from 1 of the biggest comics ever, Bleach.

Terrible joke but how many things about Puerto Rican culture do you think some folks watching the Super Bowl only just realized weren’t created by lin manuel Miranda lol

Bad Bunny 💛🔥

Those are both better but also bad bunny’s Spanish performance was American lol

So like was “having a field day” his choice of words or theirs Which person is being wildly flippant about this

Basically, I don't view "a writer who doesn't draw needs an artist to make a comic exist" as controversial. By definition "no pictures, no comic". It doesn't say anything about quality, just necessity. And all good writers know how much physical work drawing a comic is, and write knowing that.

LET PUERTO RICO BE WHAT IT WANTS TO BE. LET THE PEOPLE VOTE.

his super elite spy on the inside! stancil is going to get people killed and were going to have to deal with the same exact sealioning shit ive dealt with as recently as five hours ago by the ever-inflating pop of libs on here. fuck this thrice-damned buffoon.

Akon has always been a creep and a scam artist fuck him

I realize that dunking on the NYT is passé; but, motherfuckers, the reason Americans consume a shitton of weed is that it’s cheaper than the physical and mental healthcare we can’t afford.

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

Latine Joy and confidence is seen just as if not more confrontational and rebellious by white supremacists as more “aggressive” seeming performances I need folks to recognize this, and also recognize bad bunny is smart enough to know this. It is not less confrontational to celebrate yourself

A lot of folks don’t want to accept that they kind of sound like this when speaking about the violence and death that marginalized folks have experienced in America That they were preaching it wasn’t that serious, it was all personal choice…until…

I feel like there’s been a lot of whiteness / unintentionally white supremacist thinking happening right now and i am very compelled to point it out, but i also apologize to the homies that are probably like damn Daniel you angry lol

This is about so many (white) folks having been complicit in getting to where we are, and wanting a world in which they can undo it. That their actions and lack thereof have not actually left marks on the flesh and the souls of those living under whites supremacy It don’t work like that

I’m so angry about so much

Also like this Super Bowl performance is so intensely queer????

For me the most important part of bad bunny’s performance is the dark skinned women being heralded as just as latine as the lighter skinned women That’s so beautiful

oh no this is awful, that is so, so young

Not in reply to the last thing i said But my god, stop talking about kpop demon hunters as if kpop didn’t exist before it, as if idols haven’t been working their ass off Make sure you don’t sound like other idols are like, stand ins for that movie lol

I have a theory that a lot of people can only "see" culture or politics when it's in clear opposition to the existing power structure. So things that reify/affirm existing inequalities or logics are then "apolitical", which is the inverse of anything that dares affirm marginalized humanity as "woke"

I just want SotN on Steam With the option to use original voices/translation Why isn’t that a thing

I've been thinking about language and music. I've come to the conclusion that a good song is a good song. You don't have to translate for me. No matter the language, I'm going to like the version I heard first best. Now, let's talk about Latin Freestyle: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlgK...

Latin Freestyle artists, mainly located in New York but primarily composed of first and second generation Puerto Ricans, Cubans, and Dominicans, would often drop two versions of a hit. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNAy...

There’s a lot of “i see what you’re trying to say, but this is a case of wording really matters unless you want to spread something you don’t mean” on my feed today lol

What do people think Kendrick and Bad Bunny were doing if not reacting to broader culture? A lot of cultural moments are rooted in reacting to broader culture bc history is made in culture

(My hot take is that I’ve also seen too many white groups being recommended for the non English meme and not enough Spanish lol)

I was lied to by a reddit post and thought i had to get every soul for the aria of sorrow good ending No that’s for the perfect ending And i had what i needed except the flame demon soul so I’ve now gotten the good ending in TWO castlevanias!!!!

uk folks, an asbestos recall has been issued for 2 colours of colour forge hobby sand - www.gov.uk/product-safe... stay safe <3

anyways, don't get off discord yet; not because this isn't heinous but because we're currently in the post-horror scramble to find alternatives. give things a second to settle down so you can find out which ones suck and which ones don't. instead, cancel your nitro, yell at discord, and plan.

Liked Bad Bunny's halftime show? My very short story 12 THINGS A TRINI SHOULD KNOW BEFORE TRAVELLING TO A BACK-IN-TIMES FETE, is a list story about Trinbagonian Carnivals past, present & future. And there's a Spanish translation! strangehorizons.com/wordpress/fi... www.patreon.com/collection/2...

I want to point out AS A KPOP FAN The reason folks are looking stupid about Bad Bunny is he’s AMERICAN So while international performers are dope for Super Bowl and everything else, it’s important to focus on the distortion of his identity due to racism So “kpop should be next year” doesnt work

I mean the same people complained about kpop demon hunters for the most part Bc it’s the non whiteness that bothers them

Please don't accuse people in knitted hats of only wearing their supposed politics if all you're doing is posting, which is basically just another way of wearing your politics. It's a silly thing to attack people over in any case. Using fashion to signal support for ongoing acts of rebellion is good

A lot of castlevanias are about the power of friendship in the end

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN. No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated. Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here? No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.
