It’s interesting to read Star Trek and Star Wars as two ways America mythologizes itself. Star Trek sits in tension with itself as imagining a utopian future born from Western liberal ideals while also challenging those ideals to actually live up to their promise. While-

Hmm. When i was autistic and hadn't yet come out as a trans woman... was that me masc-ing?

Remember when TADC had fast food employee hypnosis

It really is a testament to the writing of Undertale that I've never played it and know very little about it and yet the only line i know from it still hits me like a truck.

Ive seen TADC enough times now that I can actually understand Orbsman. I don't know what to make of that.

Capital punishment is now the penalty for terrorism charges under military law, even without prosecutorial request. Since 1967 Palestinians in the occupied territories have been tried under military law & face a 96% conviction rate. It's death by default for Palestinians. It's just Nazi shit.

Happy trans day of visibility.........

I figure the #TDOV is as good a time as any to launch some new trans art!! This chapbook contains some of my best writing to date, enhanced by a few incredible illustrations from @sky-writes.bsky.social. Link to summary and order form below! lmkauflin.neocities.org/moon.html

it's TDOV and I'm super sick. anyone wanna make me smile just even a little? 🥺 PayPal.me/shwkitti

Also can i just say, it's really fucking depressing to me that even when we have trans holidays they still wind up needing to be directed at cis people. Trans day of visibility in many ways winds up being about educating cis people who treat the day as "empty platitude day".

ugh its truly grating how many bands i liked wound up being fucking AI shills.

I have nothing to say to cis people this TDOV. Instead I'd like to remind my community of one of the most important bits of wisdom we have: If you are trans, you *must* live.

never wanted a shirt more than this one

Don't fear the reaper is kinda too good of a song ngl

bun really needs some help covering this portion of its rent, it's $150 it didn't plan on and can't cover, please help 💜

You should, they have been providing material support for an openly committed genocide for years, and will follow any orders given, no matter the clear illegality of such. Loser behavior made by the world‘s biggest suckers.

the digital circus really is kinda amazing ngl

Honestly i havent read much fics with her but i imagine this goes for Ragatha too. Cause the thing about Ragatha is that she isn't "the nice girl". It is. Pretty clear text in the show that she struggles immensely with toxic positivity. But I can *feel* the flanderization from afar.

I say this with all of the love in my heart for people who write TADC fanfic. You all have *got* to make Jax messier.

FUCK EPIC GAMES

Longtime college friend of mine, Mike Prinke, was among those laid off at Epic Games: he has been fighting terminal brain cancer, and now he, his wife, and kid, have no income or health insurance. Sharing here in hopes it can reach the right people on their behalf. #epicgames

Rewatching TADC and uh Good god. Someone just get Jax some estrogen. Please.

perpetual reminder that Neil Druckmann, based the conflict in The Last of Us off his anger about Israeli soldiers being killed, the ‘border’ architecture in the game is based off the West Bank, and Naughty Dog has exploited some of its devs almost to death

No ethical consumption under capitalism means "I will have to get the medications I need from a terrible Big Pharma company," it does not mean "I have to watch my crummy wizard show or my tummy horts."

death of the author is intended as a framework for literary analysis that entails disregarding paratext and the intentions of the creator in order to create an "objective" analysis of a text. it's not intended as a way to absolve yourself of guilt for financially contributing to a creator who sucks

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

It's weird I only ever see "separate the art from the artist" takes about the works of rich bigots and never, like, the work of a trans person being called problematic or something

goddamn economy
