This one hits hard.

White Supremacy. That’s what Gwen Stefani always was: a racist, pick-me girl. It should have been more obvious. To people with how she did that racist weird Fiddler on the Roof cover, or how she appropriated Jamaican music and culture repeatedly

These two tweets about wrestling scenes in movies by a wrestler are phenomenal.

Sunday Independent...

Texas shooting appears to be ​the first known instance of US citizen being killed during Trump's immigration crackdown.

My heart is full of gratitude and there are still 20 days left of the bundle

Interesting cycle where the signifiers of non-normative gender are vilified by patriarchal society, and so people push for "reclamation" but in this selective way where those signifiers become a symbol, a literal fetish for progressive politics rather than understood as an actual experience.

You can't make an "obvious tranny" stamp without linking trans women to men, and a lot of us don't want that. Furthermore, I don't think we need an "obvious tranny" stamp. If people are insecure about blurred distinctions between cis women and trans women, that's something they can work through.

I know it often comes from a good place, from wanting to celebrate non-normative gender and different types of bodies etc., but consider that if your way of depicting trans women excludes ALL cis women, you may be comforting the "we can always tell" crowd more than validating transfemmes.

Signifiers of transfemininity often don't serve us, especially transsexual women who want to be perceived simply as "a woman." They're not for us, not in relationship with how we perceive ourselves or want others to perceive us. They are to separate us from "a woman". They are "a woman + signifier."

They scream “only two genders exist!!” But every soul shines in its own irreplaceable color 🌈✨ No matter how loud the hate gets, Chiitan will keep waving this flag until everyone can sparkle as themselves🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

hey so this app has been helping me with emotional regulation and during reading/researching/journalism Maybe it will help you too

I can probably count the friends of mine who HAVEN'T been assaulted on one hand. It's BAD.

In case you missed it, late this week researchers discovered much of the raw TypeScript used for one of Persona's frontend services left in a production build accidentally. Discord continues to distance itself from Persona, but VRChat, which exclusively uses Persona for 18+ verification, has not.

These menu options are still one of the funniest throwaway gags I've seen in a game. I forgot they were there and laughed all over again.

Me when I do anything…

one day down, 97% funded. I'm blown away by the reception to Second Gig. www.kickstarter.com/projects/ett...

Here’s Toxi in a TikTok short using the n-word

ENVTubing has a huge PR crisis where VTubers break containment for saying the most awful things over and over again. Small VTuber Toxi Kuma is going viral on Twitter for claiming white supremacy isn’t an issue in America bc… Asian supremacy might exist in Asia? Black supremacy in Africa?!

/r/chatgpt is almost there

In Gaza, hunger invades homes, leaving children to sleep hungry, louder than the bombs. We need food, safety, and the world’s attention. Please don’t look away from our pain. 💔 gofund.me/d14cbe76

Now I need a male figure skater to do a routine set to "Oh Angel" from the Fatal Fury movie, dressed as Terry Bogard. And of course, at the end he tosses the hat.

The Ooze had already been seeking his own level on Sega Mega Drive slash Genesis for nearly eight years when ICE was formed. He also began seeking it on Gamecube via the Japanese version of Sonic Mega Collection a few months before ICE was formed.

"We owe conspiracy theorists a huge apology" No we fucking don't. They were talking about a secret conspiracy of gay trans Jewish lizard people. The Epstein files uncovered a conspiracy of rich, straight, white, right-wing Christian men, which these motherfuckers never even considered.

Our feature artist/tutorial for today is this EXCELLENT set of notes on drawing CAPES by the super-generous @GRIZandNORM! This shows that it's all about TENSION, DIRECTION and SHOWING FORM! Beautiful, as usual! #gamedev #animationdev #characterdesign #conceptart #manga #anime

ai-art-turing-test.com Huh. I knew I was better than average at spotting ai art, but I didn't know I was in 99th percentile. I think that ironically makes me more effective than the AI-powered AI art detectors.

"It seemed Republicans only wanted to deny health care and segregate children based on eugenics, yet in a shocking turn it seems they want to wipe out the entire population?" Imagine writing about anyone like this, let alone one of the most persecuted communities today. Sickening.

This article begins "After a year in which the Trump administration has pressed to limit the ways Americans can identify as transgender in public life...". "Identify as transgender". If that doesn't give away the New York Times' whole game, I don't know what will. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/u...

Yeah, that line stuck out to me, too. Like... right there, the paper is editorializing and framing this as if trans people aren't actually a thing. Just people who "identify as transgender."

Like what THE ABSOLUTE FUCK? This is EXTREMELY NORMAL?! Marginalized people in every single industry hold events to can meet and network and help each other advance? A straight guy sneaking into gay networking events is actually the villain here!? Why is @wired.com targeting gay men like this?

What the fuck @wired.com ?!?!

Me, March 2022:

Studios are chasing FFXIV not thinking about how the original release was one of the worst in MMO history, and only after reworking things and revamping the whole game did it become the phenomenon it is today.

someone waited their ENTIRE LIFE to write that headline...

Well I mean... that's how I imagine it went down. #pixelart #gameboy

Um, hey so I have enjoyed your work on the current state of tech and the current admin and its subsequent horrors. As someone subscribed to you: this is childishly homophobic

Despite how excellent the news may seem, do not get comfortable just yet One key word to take this away from; "Halted," which means, the Age Verification junk is very much alive and there's a possibility they'll be trying this again Keep the pressure going, do not let them get away with this

This is the energy we need from Dems

apparently it is kinda rare to ask "is our children learning"

I will still get Tumblr notifications for my Zelda-as-protagonist pitch from 12 years ago, and my knee-jerk reaction is always "I could draw this so much better now"

"Never bet against Cameron" has been a a battle cry for a quarter century now, but recently he's been advocating for replacing VFX artists with AI & advocating against a streaming company merging with a studio all to protect his massive budget alien fucking movies, and frankly it's fucking bullshit.

Hopefully, this is a sign more people in Hollywood will call James Cameron out on his bullshit.
