Fun fact I used to be the sole author of all the fics for Mariner x Rutherford Lower Decks fics on A03. Looks like thankfully two people added theirs so now there's nine but the other seven are all mine <3

This is only related in a sideways manner, but: the story of any small slice of humanity is the story of humanity, just boiled down and distilled. So: In 2020, we had a lot of conversations about harassment at SF/F conventions, and Isaac Asimov came up several times.

I love writing so much, man. I work as a journalist during the day and rest by indulging in my hobby... which is writing fanfics on Ao3.

It's still amazing that every kid in the 90's heard the rumor about Marilyn Manson removing one of his ribs so he could suck his own dick, when: 1. basically no one had cellphones 2. The internet was a place you physically went to log onto 3. long distance calls cost money

Here's the thing, living in a fascist occupation and still doing normal shit like dealing with annoying neighbors or cleaning your cat litterbox is fucking surreal. If our lives have to be surreal, I'm glad this is how we're responding.

Please for the love of God vaccinate your children

I have made... a mistake. Each auction lot had 8-12 photos, so I assumed that was the number of pieces in the lot. It was merely a sample. Each lot contains 100-ish pieces. I won three lots.

the type of liberals who use “dearborn” as a slur now have the exact same vibes as the type of early 2000s atheists who just wanted an excuse to be islamophobic

Yes.

LOL so embarrassing for him

Support a Black family during Black History Month! Keith Porter, Jr. Keith Porter, Jr. Keith Porter, Jr. Keith Porter, Jr. Keith Porter, Jr.

That seems normal and fine

No one should have to thread this needle and it is a horror that one whose lost so much does it best.

democrats be like: “we’ll train the cops better, we’ll make ice be nicer, we’ll only bomb people who we’re extra sure deserve it, we’ll let billionaires keep destroying the planet because they pay my bills” i say NO MORE

My first show was ENT, I was baptized by fire in this fandom 😂

The very first fanfic I ever wrote was the cast of Digimon (specifically Joe and Izzy) acting like pedantic nerds over Trek facts, not knowing how true that stereotype really was

Totally unrelated to this video, but why have there been so many interviews being given on Air Force One? I've genuinely never recall any other President ever given even one interview on AF1 Is that strange to anyone else?

"Masculinity is rewarded, including in AFAB people" Full offense, but have any of you met a transmasculine person with parents before?

My argument as a disabled person against AI is that I would love to be a dancer or go hiking again, but my disabilities prevent both. If someone made a robot and dressed it up like me and had it go hiking or dancing...it really wouldnt feel like I actually got to hike or dance. So what's the point.

It's under the brand name 'Yeztugo,' and it has a 100% success rate in women and a 96% success rate in men even after a year - which means that it's far more forgiving of a weird schedule, and still highly effective if you delay your booster.

Just because good news is worth celebrating: There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection. HIV has, effectively, a vaccination.

As a Filipino, I can confirm that much outsourced digital labor in the Philippines consists of "remotely faking processes described as automated." Since these workers are contractually forbidden from disclosing this work, people remain continuously surprised by this in the year of our lord 2026.

oh btw if you need the CIA World Factbook because they took it down with no warning because we can't have nice things, here's where you can get the PDF for the 2024-2025 edition: annas-archive.li/md5/92d7b783...

minor point of order since it keeps coming up, it's "Woke 2" and not "Woke 2.0". we're leaving tech industry bullshit behind too

Shout out to @smolbbybun.bsky.social for creating a custom fandom tag for MHA Vigilantes on AO3 for anyone who wants/needs it 🙏

Just finished Starfleet Academy episode Vox in Excelso and it made me emotional when the franchise finally took the culture of one of their major races seriously, applying a diaspora lens really made the story so much more relatable.

Okay I'm officially into Starfleet Academy

2010s Tumblr fandom co-opting social justice terms for ship wars really made it next to impossible to have the discussions we really needed to about the implicit racism in fandom spaces, which very much existed on both sides of proship/anti discourse

Could you successfully communicate the "This is not a place of honor" long-term nuclear waste warning message using only emoji

Blueskyese and Xian share an obvious common root as both being Twitteric languages, the difference is that after the split Xian became a hybrid Twitteric/Channer-linkedin tongue, while Blueskyese changed less overall but did pick up some tumbleric and redditor loanwords

Anyway if this somehow reaches anyone please send me your indie visual novels or ones you like that are either free or low price. I do not care about genre or rating or content warnings

“Let Shirakumo have brown skin so we can make our fan arts where he’s a giant beefy drooling aggressive animalistic alpha!!” I’m so tired of this fandom. Literally saw him drawn like this the other week like it’s not an issue of the past

This recipe is really good. I used brown lentils because it's what's in my pantry. rainbowplantlife.com/creamy-mushr...

Legitimately, BBQ is the one food I'd trust a white guy from Texas or the Carolinas not to fuck up

She posted this on the first week of Black History Month?! Is her momma white or something?

This cost almost $400 that I don’t have so if anyone would like to donate to our found cat, here’s my info. We named her Saja, after KPop Demon Hunters. It means ‘lion.’ venmo.com/u/pixiedane

We put on an all-Yiddish community production of fiddler on the roof in Philadelphia and cast member and local artist Sofie Rose Seymour created the most amazing show poster that ever was

JayDar is real. #StarfleetAcademy

I know I only did six months of a journalism degree, but I thought the rule was that when you get this sort of instruction, you immediately report on it

I often think about how being on the algorithmic internet foments a constant sense of failure because whatever is most successful is all that is visible, by design, and you simply do not see people performing on lower levels. If you did, they’d be more successful. Right?
