Discovering there’s a point that comes after you realize that you’re trans and after you’ve been transitioning for a where you finally actually internalize it as a reality and not an aspiration and that’s when all the dysphoria and dysmorphia you never thought you felt reveals itself.

This sounds like if an early Earthless or Bardo Pond demo was recorded in a studio by Randall Dunn. Insane production for a heavy psych jam album.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

the fact they initially tried to blame the diarrhea outbreak on Taco Bell feels low key racist

the premise of Legally Blonde is that women are smarter than men because their hobbies are more complicated than theirs and they need to try twice as hard to succeed at anything and the fact that it resonated so much with me as a kid should maybe have been a sign

Unbelievable how much less frustrating Parappa The Rapper 2 is despite playing almost identically to the original just by giving players a little bit more information

If anything about the reports of Mitch’s hospitalization was accurate I’m gonna need more than a still photo with a newspaper to assure me there’s still a turtle in that shell.

I've known that my wife has absolutely no interest in futuristic science fiction since she pointed to a picture of an Ewok and asked "What the fuck is that thing?" but today I learned that her only fictional point of reference for artificially intelligent humanoid robots is Questionable Content.

This is how starting ADHD meds felt for me. Though I’m not sure amphetamines are vitamins.

despite his categorical denial of the value of human life he was never rude to me personally, this counts as civility somehow

Journey in Satchidananda has Pepper’s favorite album since she was a kitten, and as soon as I put it on she started chirping at it

It's important that Trump's other enablers who are still alive & still actively choosing to side with him see what a legacy people like Graham leave by witnessing how people react to his death. You do not dishonor the dead by speaking truthfully of Graham; you are fighting for those in harm's way.

I have been granted the lathe of heaven

John Carpenter is making a metal album with an accompanying graphic novel, much like his film career his semi-retirement has been an endless stream of delights

one of the most evil men in the country died last night and I'm seeing a lot of liberals who rightfully despised him who also see this as a great opportunity to engage in some socially acceptable homophobia

I don’t know what’s gonna come out about him now that he’s dead but he always struck me as someone who was with fine letting everyone believe he was a closeted gay man because it deflected from a much darker secret. What kind of blackmail can coerce someone who’s already so brazenly, gleefully evil?

Lindsey Graham’s office saved my wife’s life when she was his constituent as a child and needed medical care, and I still woke her up just so she could cheer at the news of his death. Nobody owes that demon a moment of sympathy. I wish hell was real for him specifically.

Republicans courting the dead voter demographic they claim overwhelmingly votes Democrat by letting a dead guy hold office

Lotta people have decided Platner's texts must be AI even though not even he claimed that they were faked. Do they their supposedly shrewd political hopeful didn't consider that excuse?

crane games have a skill floor that’s way too high for how much they cost and how cheap their prizes are

I didn't know Old Spaghetti Factory was a chain when I was a kid so since everyone seemed to know about it I assumed ours was just really famous and had earned the title of Old

There are actually aggressively recruiting, high paying jobs right now for technical professionals to analyze and annotate code and delineate processes in order to train AI, but Mark Kern of course does not know this because he isn't a technical professional and he doesn't have any skills.

had to send an email to my family asking for help with money, when my wife asked chat gpt to format it it kept everything verbatim and removed the part where I mentioned that AI was making it hard to find software consultancy gigs right now.

What's the penalty for lying about your colleague dying in order to subvert the democratic process for replacing him. Or do we only care about fraud when it's poor people getting public benefits we don't think they actually deserve.

across every industry people are being asked to do more work than they've ever had to do before, in the most demoralizing conditions they've ever had to work in, while living through a compounding and generationally destabilizing global political crisis. seems fine

what terrible shit are they gonna drop this Friday

Fond childhood memories of verifying my age before logging in to watch Homestar Runner to make sure that I didn’t get advertised the fuckable Marzipan plushies by mistake

I really want to know what this guy thinks estrogen does to people. Or what kind of surgeries we're getting that fill us with energy during recovery.

That he was a racist and a misogynist and a murderer is the working class cred that made all these guys like him. That's what the Klippensteins of the world thinks makes you working class. That's the model of masculinity they aspire to and think any political movement needs to center on.

the think about Michael Tracey is that he thinks rape is mostly fake and should be legal, so he would be doing this even if he knew how to read

A short comic about Lenny #TheSimpsons #comics

After six months we were finally able to file the paperwork to oppose an emergency custody order my kid's abusive ex got in one night with no evidence and immediately proceeded to violate the terms of. What a joke of a legal process.

What we really need to unify everyone is for a real misogynist to step in and represent the left. We’re ceding valuable women-hating ground to the right and now they’re taking all the big strong men we need to get shit done. This is what every Platner apologist has sounded like for the past year.

Delighted to say that we have made our basic funding goal of $22K, which means that Strange Horizons will continue to exist as a weekly, free magazine of SFF for the 27th year running! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s... However, with ten days left, it’s not over. Read on: 🧵

The fallout from Platner's predictable past just tells me that a lot of people are extremely jealous rape isn't a dealbreaker for Republicans, and think caring about women and minorities is holding Democrats back. Might have an expanded, semi-global definition of "us" but still fascists at heart.

“Why didn’t she go to the police right after it happened” you ever think that time froze and we’ve been stuck in 2017 since Trump took office

a lot of people seem to sincerely believe that the key to victory is finding the right left-wing, load-bearing white guy to save us and that isn't going to fucking happen

If I have to hear any more fireworks they’d better be for a really good reason

Anybody who called the Nazi tattoo or the PMC background a “purity test” can go fuck themselves. How many people got shamed into trusting this asshole out of fear of sowing discord? Redemption is possible, but it requires contrition. Hiding your past is not contrition, it’s manipulation.

We made it to the final season of Sabrina the Teenage Witch where she works as a journalist with her roommates Punky Brewster and The Other Girl From Clueless, when she interviewed a rock star who doesn’t drink I knew in my heart of hearts this must be cameo from Hart’s IRL fiance, and I was right

2026 has been an absolutely killer year for drone music

I’m sure some of them got duped but Trump didn’t make billions by tricking his followers with a crypto scam, he made billions in bribes through an unregulated backchannel

Came back in from smoking a pre-roll to an episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch where she learns a lesson about getting stoned

today at work we celebrated the 4th of July by running over a starlink with a car

They have to make Adderall supplies inconsistent because otherwise we’d be too powerful

If I hadn’t known Tim Heidecker was InfoWars creative director I think I would have already figured it out

My plans this weekend? Well I’m gonna

Battlefield 6 should give us an actual practice range with distant and moving targets before adding 40% bullet drop to every single gun

checked my old job for openings and all the Android jobs now are "product engineer" and the description is that you use AI to make the apps and use your java+kotlin knowledge to fix them, so basically you're the lead engineer and the product manager for a team of 1 and probably paid less than either

It’s been twenty years since the single came out, and I finally realized that the opening line to Phantom Limb by The Shins was not “Frozen intercourse,” but “Foals in winter coats.” More than half my life not knowing the first thing about a song I quite liked and frequently put on playlists.
