So uh … are we ready to have a real mainstream conversation about gamergate now? Just a thought ya know. No reason.

Every very online leftist rn

I’m gonna need ppl who call fictional works ‘harmful’ to start providing proof of harm. And no I don’t mean ‘scary movies make people feel scared’ I need there to be actual material evidence of tangible harm as a direct result of the specific piece of media at the center of each claim.

Gives new meaning to "grasping at straws."

Sinners invites a new bold business idea. What if people want to see movies because they like them and not due to a pavlovian response to being 12 years old once!?

Top notch Leopards/faces moment here from the managing director of Thiel Capital and the person who coined the term "Intellectual Dark Web." Yeah, so weird how much antisemitism there is on Musk's platform...real head scratcher there, my dude.

Bro they lobotomized your aunt

theyre SO upset that it beat out minecraft that it's hilarious

#DevilMayCry This show was made for me. The soundtrack. The easter eggs. The slow burn Disney Hercules AU of it all. And we didn’t even get The Van yet. I am so happy rn.

Started Devil May Cry and the fan service is fan servicing

Bluesky is embarrassing. Ppl responding pissed off at this : have y’all read Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny?😭 literally a paragraph into the article: “Trump has always been a presence, not an absence: the presence of fascism. What does this mean?” Ppl, plz the article is meant to educate normies 😭

I just saw a rabbit on the lawn in front of Cambridge city hall. I was like, aww, a rabbit. And then I saw a second rabbit and was like oh wow, another rabbit. Then I saw a third one and started to get a little nervous. Then, I kid you not, I saw a fourth rabbit and I got the hell out of there.

Jasmine Crockett 🔥🔥🔥 "All I kept hearing was 'fire.' ... They are lighting the Social Security on fire, Medicaid on fire, Medicare on fire, 401ks on fire, Department of Education on fire ..." Meanwhile, their incompetent leader has already wasted $26 million taxpayer dollars playing golf!

The Men I Pay Attention To are onto something this week

Gamergate was really the first successful trial run. Online right-wing radicals found a method and a formula that allowed them to recruit followers and avoid consequences. Everything that's followed has been a refinement and an expansion of the same techniques.

“i was born in the wrong era” not me. i love reading 100k words of yearning on ao3 and talking to gay people online.

Was it worth it, gamergate bros?

You know, I have no interest in saying "I told you so" to people who were too busy with other stuff to parse the threat But I do look forward to people not looking at me like I have three heads whenever I bitch about it

Hard to put into words how much the right is freaking out rn on the other site

She died in binary. That’s dedication. RIP.

Sephiroth comission 🖤

Oh DAMN. They said it. Not me. Not us.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again. This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

I see Sephiroth has arrived in Ballycastle

If a woman in military authority had this sort of emotional freakout on camera, the entire country would call her hysterical and demand she be sequestered in a menstrual hut

My tin foil hat theory is that all these dudes from Milo Y to culture war YouTubers to Trump admin officials run through the same 101 tutorial of “how to rant like a far right grifting lunatic” b.c why the hell do they all talk the same, give the same “points”, have the same diction, everything

Welcome, #brands.

This is why we have to keep raising hell.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of the dyad? It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. They were so powerful they could use Force keep the ones they cared about from dying…but so can love.

When you make sure your friends get to eat too. #dogs

It seem insane for a US Senator to say we've all been subjected to "a relentless bombardment of Marxist propaganda." But what he means by this is 1) there was a Burger King ad with an interracial couple and 2) Star Wars Episodes VII-IX had a female lead.

More of this energy please

thered be calls for impeachment if a dem did this

This is a great article to send right wing YouTuber bros with 1M subs and videos that consistently monopolize the key word search of your fav pop culture IP when they start screaming and crying that the algorithm hates them

"The median video has been watched just 41 times; posts with more than 130 views are actually in the top third of the service's most popular content. In other words, the vast majority of YouTube is practically invisible." @thomasgermain.bsky.social www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Hey remember that time a bunch of losers got mad at a lady who made a video game about depression and it led to several thousand federal employees losing their jobs

Gillibrand doesn’t seem to hold the same ethics for Cuomo as she did for Franken b/c Franken wasn’t kicked out due to harassment. He was kicked out b/c he was a powerful Dem of the old guard actually cracking down on corporate interests & fiercely fighting for consumer privacy. Donors hated him.

Fascism is unsustainable. It is inherently built to fail, despite what its leaders want you to think. The bigger question is not whether it will stand. It is: can we hurry its demise? Limit its danger to the vulnerable? And just as important: what will we build after?
