Still a big fan of these Buggies #OnePiece

I think the reason romantasy is dwarfing sales of fantasy & sci-fi is that it's a subset of romance. And romance is the biggest, most profitable category in literature. Romantasy allowed romance readers, who read very widely, to take cross-genre romance mainstream & it's reaping the rewards.

If you still wear a mask at all, even just when sick or at the hospital or on public transit, THANK YOU! If you still try to isolate or protect others when you are sick, THANK YOU. If you still test for COVID when you have any symptoms, THANK YOU.

tally.so/r/Zj5vEv The CEO of Nebula must've saw my post about how there are no Native video essayists because they just posted this in their subreddit initiating a creator application form. If you're Indigenous and make video essays, shoot your shot. We need more of us out there.

roleplay is a collaborative hobby that should prioritize communication and consent. however once you get very close to a writing partner it can actually transform into a masterful bought of psychological warfare and i think thats beautiful

i have been trying too hard to be something i'm not... embrace cartoon.

never let anyone tell you everyone was united in support of the Iraq War. I saw a guy on the news, on 9/11, on the street in NYC as the WTC burned behind him, telling the reporter "I just hope Bush doesn't start a war over this". We have literally always been here don't let people tell you otherwise

this is ALSO why my top advice for younger people is: Remember everything that happened during COVID lockdowns, during the Gaza War, etc. because we are twenty years out from tons of people trying to retcon these things to fit their agenda. Do not let them do that.

Spoke to a second source familiar with what’s going on with paypro censorship toward me. It seems I’ve been blacklisted among paypros as a creator, particularly for mommy domme content. This could escalate into debanking, I learned

What's happening to Ana should be a massive canary for kink artists/creatives, and how the pressure's escalated even in the last few months. Mommy domme content is *tame* in the scheme of things - this is a silencing campaign.

梅雨びんはの落書き

thinking about bondage as things other than wrist cuffs or even shibari opens a lot of avenues for alternative or less explored kink. like tying someones ankles to their desk chair so they can't get up until they've finished their work, for example. hands specifically being free can be very useful

615 of the estimated 3,000+ detained immigrants who were kidnapped in Chicagoland during Midway Blitz are expected to be eligible for bond this week. The Midwest Immigration Bond Fund shows up for people in detention who need bond, but it costs, at minimum, $1,500 per person. Pls help them.

I HAVE RECTIFIED THIS GRAVE SIN. archiveofourown.org/works/74384131

AIPAC is a horrific and evil organization and also please take a good hard look at why you are CONSTANTLY defaulting to blaming them for literally everything even when you have no evidence of the fact and maybe don’t perpetuate “shadowy Jewish organization is responsible for all the world’s harm”

“I think a lot of where we are right now is because of people’s refusal to confront just how many right wing talking points they’ve been swallowing uncritically” And if you blow this off I think you should watch this video, and if you don’t watch the video then well you just proved the point

An incredibly Trump-era headline theintercept.com/2025/11/17/p...

Payment processors should never have the ability to financially kill someone because they don't like what they're saying. This is tyranny. We have to force people to look. Anyone you can get your hands on, youtubers, local radio, etc. Make them look at what's happening.

I'm watching an adult creator get systematically cut off from every income stream by payment processors and now debankment could be on the table. She makes legal content. They are trying to shut her up and hope that we'll shut up too. We must get louder. Call Visa and MC. Tell them this will stop.

Why am I so against generative AI in games? Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

One more for fun

By my count there's 65 documents with emails between Krauss and Epstein. In many of them Krauss seems to ask Epstein for advice about the allegations of sexual misconduct leveled toward him.

Kabru in crisis

It has always been so obvious that the backlash to MeToo isn’t about whether the abuse is happening but whether people are allowed to want it to stop

1st of all lmao 2nd, unless something has changed since I worked for Bux, ppl who work at locations inside of Targets/other stores don’t get the employee benefits (like health insurance) of ppl who work at regular locations. that’s what this campaign is directing traffic to during the strike.

The Salvation Army are a hate group. Do not forget that this winter.

the 1960s was not that long ago, and my key take-away from reading a lot of books about the Civil Rights movement recently has been the exact diametric opposite of "the South isn't really that racist compared to the rest of the country"

this doesn't mean the South is hopeless, it doesn't mean that we shouldn't keep trying to win elections and fight the MAGAs in the South, but maintaining this fantasy nonsense about how the South doesn't REALLY have a uniquely racist culture in a number of respects is just foolishness

as a white liberal with Southern roots, quite frankly, I think other white liberals from the South need to get the fuck over their oddly defensive attitude about what should be pretty blindingly obvious.

in the last 5 days these laid-off VIBE staffers have only made it to 31% of their GoFundMe goal after being laid off. please show them the same support you showed Teen Vogue!!

something i’ve noticed recently is that rightwingers have been ramping up trying to make furries a new front in their social culture war and i’m not sure that’s going to work especially because it’s purely a social hobby

F2U little bingqiu icons! #svsss

This is the strength of our city. We’ll honor the trust these families put in us by making this a place where they can thrive.

Trump claims his ICE raids are going after the "worst of the worst". But his own DOJ admits that over 97% of immigrants detained in Chicago have no criminal record. It was always about cruelty, not public safety.

i bet it's fun as fuck to be a big scary monster who is a pervert about humans.

i know i've made this post before but i couldn't find it. anyway monsters with long tongues putting those tongues down their little human partner's throat is underrated.

One significant way to fix the federal deficit? Dramatically raise the minimum wage across our country. It will cause an increase in tax collections, much less people on federal assistance, and health outcomes will improve causing less reliance on federal health programs.

i think transphobia will continue to not really take off in the united states as an electoral issue simply because it feels intensely british

If you are struggling right now I want to remind you that they really is hope. What you are experiencing now really is hard no matter how you might beat yourself up about it or others might ignore it. Just be gentle with yourself and try a little bit each day

Happy Valentine's Day! I originally posted this comic in 2023, and for its 2-year anniversary I'm finally cross-posting it here: A #zosan comic about what happens when you find out your future self is in a relationship with your bitter rival. "20 Year Waltz" [R15] 40pg 🧵

i can highly rec petrapixel's webringu for a lightweight webring script ^w^ petrapixel.neocities.org/coding/webri...

i'm so used to the scum villain fandom where i get an idea that's like medium perverted, go to ao3, and find seven people who've already written it. every single time i read something in orv and am like surely they're horny about this! i am disappointed

i love pirates and piracy but do not forget to take your pirate hat off when you're in public. loose lips sink ships.

The Trump regime has fired an estimated 70 immigration judges since February. This is happening as immigration courts face a record backlog of cases. Remember: it was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.

I wish I had time to draw actual nice kisses today ;; Anyways, happy 'Chu of China' 2 years anniversary

The public has supported raising taxes on the ultrarich and corporations for years, but policymakers have failed to act. → Raising taxes on the rich makes good economic and political sense. EPI’s latest report from @joshbivens-econ.bsky.social 1/
