Certain dudes are still upset with me when I said in 2012 that here in the US, being a straight white male is living on the lowest difficulty setting of life. From here on out I'm just going to refer them to these DOGE staffer depositions, and then tell them to go fuck themselves.

GNU SIR TERRY PRATCHETT Signal this to all towers, not logged. ‘He’d never have wanted to go home. He was a real linesman. His name is in the code, in the wind in the rigging and the shutters. Haven’t you ever heard the saying “A man’s not dead while his name is still spoken”?’ Going Postal

I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going “wow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic

the last gasp of broadcast tv being the Sheldon Cooper Extended Universe is somehow extremely on point in some way I am too exasperated to enumerate at this time

When you have a problem with a trans woman on Bluesky so suddenly you whip out the they/them pronouns and rely heavily on the "this person" to describe them ... almost like a lot of the antagonism I deal with on here has a backbone of transmisogyny 🤔

tariffs happening for no reason and theyre making your life worse, secret police kidnapping people for no reason and making your life worse, firing thousands of government employees for no reason and making your life worse, going to war with iran for no reason and making your life worse

Your senator is a greater threat to children than all the legal porn on the internet.

1. Horrifying ruling out of the 4th Circuit. An all-Republican 4th Circuit panel has just ruled that states can compel trans adults to "appreciate their sex" by enacting care bans. It even directly says that trans adult care bans are legal in the ruling. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I had to go to this party at a bar for like networking or whatever but it's so loud and I just want to play Melee please send foxes

Some folks treated me like a naive child for believing we had the money to cancel a portion of student loan debt

お久しぶりです　進捗です

Another reminder NB = Non Black POC ENBY = Nonbinary Person PLEASE use the right one, as NB existed before the nonbinary movement took hold. We're here to stand up for ourselves, not appropriate from others. Now if you're an NB ENBY-- by all means pop off queen. This is to educate those that aint

I don't know if it fell out of fashion or if reading comprehension just improved, but I no longer get alleged readers acting surprised that I, the author of a cyberpunk story about heroic left-wing terrorists, am in reality a filthy commie.

Hey there, thanks for the artshare! I'm Ari, I've been doing a series lately where I draw the original BIONICLE Toa Team, check it out #marchofrobots

Btw, if it's not clear: The tactic the right is using rn is to start censoring fetishes and kinks that are generally accepted to be "bad" or "gross" by most people to slowly warm us up to the idea of censoring all sexual expression online. Don't fall for this by going "this is actually based!!"

They deserve to be seen as a legitimate medium for storytelling rather than glorified movie or tv pitches that come free with concept art

Discworld QOTD, from The Wee Free Men

Discworld QOTD, from Men at Arms "Carrot often struck people as simple. And he was. Where people went wrong was thinking that simple meant the same thing as stupid."

Hey businesses, especially anything medical-related: if what you're asking can be answered via text or email, could you do that instead of leaving a garbled voicemail at 6am to call you back? Especially when you know the person you're calling has executive dysfunction and auditory processing issues?

It shouldn't fall to trans people to explain to cis people why creating laws that effectively amount to "If you have or ever had a penis, you must behave this way; If you have, or ever had a vagina, you must behave this other way" is horrifically dangerous for everyone's rights.

I'm so tired of having to defend porn made by consenting adults for consenting adults when our government is run by literal child predators that are hurting people everyday

Labour is killing trans people Pass it on!!

Obviously you can't turn queer by reading a comic. ...but if you *could*, wouldn't you like it to be my comic?

The sheer number of people insisting that Japanese companies “cannot” work with SAG-AFTRA or have “no reason to” whose heads would explode upon learning SEGA could do this…

GREAT NEWS!!!!! 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

"Obama will prosecute Bush." "Biden will prosecute Trump." "Democrats will prosecute Trump if they win the midterms." "The Good Cop will protect me from the Bad Cop if I talk." An abuser needs to control what you think is possible. We have to work outside the box the capitalists built around us.

"What if every npc was a fully functional chatbot" is the game equivalent to asking in a movie "what if you could move the camera wherever you wanted"; it sounds so cool until you realize there is a crucial intent to the limits, and you will quickly lose the plot if you toss that by the wayside.
