Also, it's Obama's fault no one can play video games as much anymore by limiting the computing power of consoles when he passed the Multi Process Regulation bill. Look up Obama MPReg to learn more

i don't mean to single out baseball fans here, because you see this in lots of fan communities, but in certain corners people talk as though baseball is real. they think all the players are real people and the stadiums are places you can actually visit. to each their own, but that cannot be healthy

SCOOP / UPDATE — Disney saw more than 1.7 million total paid streaming cancelations during the period 9/17-9/23, a Disney source confirms to me. The total includes Disney+, Hulu and ESPN.

Disney's facing an open letter from shareholders demanding they lay bare all actions and emails surrounding Kimmel's suspension on the grounds that the C-suite and board may have violated their responsibility to fiduciary loyalty and care... and I truly love that for them. Wishing them the worst. 💋

Someone said “what does this mean” So I’ll try this My mom once told me “Sometimes the only way to be a good Christian you gotta stop going to a bad church” If you believe in love and peace , and they CHOOSE otherwise It becomes your duty to leave

as a Chiefs fan who thinks women can have jobs, the best case scenario is when we're winning but Butker plays terribly

The reaction Disney fans are having makes think maybe the Harry Potter fans are just bigots who don’t care after all.

Since this whole debate is still happening, and since we are still not listening I will summarize what I understand the argument to be in the Lingua Franca of white nerds: Lord of the Rings analogies.

It’s crazy that in 20 years scamming has gone from “I’m a prince who needs to transfer his fortune to you” to “hey I have a halfway decent job with okay benefits right here”

🎶 we’re not gonna take it! 🎶 (a compliment)

Every year Nintendo releases something amazing in November, because apparently that's how holiday sales work? And every year I'm angry because I would never wait two months to buy something I want just for calendar milestones. I have things to do that month, dammit. What's so bad about Oct or Dec?

It's not lost on me in the midst of this eulogizing and memorializing a monster that my home state, Florida, has made it a crime to commemorate or remember the victims of the Pulse massacre. In America, only some deaths are considered grievable. The rest of us are just "collateral damage."

Sometimes I'll be like "omg | relate so hard to ALL of these memes" then see they're from some account named like “memes for aging nostalgia obsessed existentially fragile depressives with bad posture” and be like oh

If you have learned nothing today from watching left politicians speaking out, let it be this: When someone they knew who stood opposed to them died the same day as a school shooting, so many of them had more time, attention, and energy to give to that man than the children in question.

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

/3 We can also call out who has encouraged and normalized political violence and made it government policy. We can note the irony of it in many cases. But celebrating it — yelling “hooray” — is like celebrating going to war. People will die and it won’t be fun.

well??

HK fans when they play the "git gud" character and realise she was serious #Silksong #pixelart

Oh my god, Trump actually got the NRA to come out to defend trans people owning a gun.

"Everybody deserves a second chance." No, everybody *hopes* for a second chance. What they deserve is a chance to build a new life past their old mistakes. What they do not deserve is a chance to rebuild the life and opportunities they sacrificed by making those mistakes. Nobody owes them that.

Isn't the 5G in the COVID vaccine sufficient?

found this poem in a 2018 file in my notes app

ME: hey can you clean up your mess? HUSBAND: right now? ME: yes there’s no room for MY mess HUSBAND: okay hold on

and I am trying to think of how to explain to this man that I literally DO NOT KNOW HOW to not smile when an exercise hurts and he was like, “fucking ballerinas, man, every one of them is the fucking Terminator” and it was the most validating thing anyone has ever said about me

Dolly Parton has sent my daughter a new book every month for years as she does for thousands of children. She help fund the development of the Covid vaccine. She’s not a billionaire. I think as non wealthy people it’s hard to even imagine how much billionaires *could* be doing with their money.

“Unconditional Love” is for sermons, dramas, and love songs. My shit got conditions. Not being a fascist is an insanely low bar for you to meet.

Going to keep saying: a society that wants to keep functioning needs to discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

did it hurt? when you realized you gravitate to neurodivergent & queer spaces because it feels like being a theater kid again

There's a direct line from "no kink at Pride" and "no sex in movies and books unless it Serves The Plot" to payment processors feeling completely empowered to censor art globally

Fun fact: In the 61 minutes between @ctdunn7.bsky.social taking this assignment and publication, we received (at least) two emails and two anonymous news tip submissions about this. Thank you all! We need you. Keep 'em coming. lawrenceks.news/hmu

The "you are ablist and classist if you hate AI" argument worked out very well* for NaNoWriMo, and I invite other influential people in Art Spaces to fuck around and find out. It is so refreshing to see the trash take itself out to the curb.

A message to our followers.

What's the most obscure thing you quote? "I fear change, and I will keep my bushes." It's from a Quiznos commercial campaign that compares toasted subs to other ground-breaking inventions. In this case, the man who invented pants. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmkP...

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

There is a difference between separating the art from the artist... and separating the transaction from the art. If your method of engagement with the art funnels funding to a hate group, or clout someone will weaponize it, the art is not the issue.

Worked imo: Ok Boomer They’re weird Will you shut up, man There you go again Does not work imo: He’s dangerous He’s a felon Most important election ever Rules don’t apply to him Stop building up fascists into cool strong outlaws for scared idiots to hide behind. Deflate them. It’s not that hard
