This is killing me this week realizing the only reason I was able to hang onto my previous character hyperfixation so long was lucking out wrt discord, and failing to do that since means I never finish shit anymore from lack of motivation. This is the reason why fandoms die w/out new content now

It is looking increasingly likely that Ana - probably the person most involved in organizing protests against payment processor censorship recently - is getting hit by retaliation by those organizations.

All I can say is I attended a Democratic Party event in DALLAS, TEXAS 10 days ago with officials and candidates and the biggest cheers were for Mamdani and the most questions/most frequent topic of conversation was Epstein. We should not overthink this.

The irony here is painful. Alice Wong wrote a column for Vogue called Disability Visibility. You can still find all her writing for Vogue under her author name. But *Disability Visibility* - also the name of the advocacy group she launched - has been erased. Exactly how disabled people often are.

Truly amazing that any time the democrats have to bite the bullet and do something that ruins countless lives, there's always *just* enough votes to get it done, but if there is a vote on something that would actually improve people's lives, they are always one vote short. Crazy how that happens.
