as of yesterday i have achieved my #1 childhood dream of being a professional writer who lives in an apartment in a big city... the Girl is Going to Be Okay. thanks for making it possible folks 💜

Dan Reed was a documentary filmmaker who specialized in terrorism and war when he detoured into very different terrain, explosive in other ways entirely: the accusations of child sexual abuse that have followed Michael Jackson since 1993.

As a woman in the content creation space, I've noticed with increasing frequency that the larger a male youtuber's fanbase, the more likely it is they're a sex pest. Obviously not true of everyone, but like...it kinda seems like a problem.

Help BLOW! up the patriarchy, one predator at a time. We're raising money for a horror short, and you do not want to miss being on Doll's good side... Support if you can or just share the link!!! Cannot wait to bring you this fresh feminist nightmare 🔪🎈 seedandspark.com/fund/theblow...

not favorite of all time but for the past 6 months my wife have been impersonating this guy who oversings "You Are So Beautiful" to Marge at least once per day

idk who needs to hear this but you cannot do a Rod Serling impression.

I feel like it won't take long for this "AI" era to be a deep cultural embarassment. "They kept saying their AI had become sentient every 6 months and people just sorta kept believing it even though it was never true."

i think this is the most fun i've ever had watching a video. jaw literally dropped and going "what?? are you kidding me??" throughout.

it's happening

i just wanna get VALISd at this point. i want Close Encounters of the Third Kind to happen to me. when's it gonna be my turn.

A woman sued OpenAI last week alleging that ChatGPT reinforced the obsessive, violent delusions of her stalker (her ex-boyfriend.) This woman's claims (as detailed by TechCrunch, left) are chillingly similar to those of a completely different woman whose story Futurism reported on in Feb (right):

watching The Boys for the first time as an OCD-haver and i rewound the scene where Starlight and MM are at the café 3 times trying to figure out what's weird about the way MM drinks coffee

btw if you're a theatre using AI generated images or music instead of hiring human artists you stand for nothing and should be ashamed

just looked in the mirror and realized my hair has grown out so much it now looks exactly like Johnny Depp's hair in Sweeney Todd... i have become that which i most hated...

turns out girls make up about half of all children bozo

another day in a long line of being compared to Pomni from Amazing Digital Circus but the good news is i have a great new idea for a Halloween costume

Please please PLEASE show support to all of the Iranians in your life right now. Here’s a starter pack of all of the amazing Iranian artists and creatives I know!! bsky.app/starter-pack...

been at a loss for words today. to wipe out millions of lives for cheap gas…

pretty weird to see people argue that the guy who has been itching to use nukes since he was first elected in 2016 has suddenly "lost his mind"

Even if he is bluffing, tomorrow the whole threatening genocide thing will be papered over as an effective negotiation strategy and we’ll continue living in a country where there are no consequences for making such threats.

Hey all, we've got a very very deeply optional go fund me we're gonna post here. Always take care of yourselves first! gofund.me/79cd246c2

Melancholy postscript: and you will notice when you no longer have to adjust the credits because that person with the extra-long name isn't on your Patreon anymore, and it will make you wonder what you did to drive Garbageboy Stinkman Belongs in the Toilet away

not it being given the same name as the pedo antagonist of Lolita... genuine proof that the people who made this don't read much.

I read some quotes for friend of the channel José María Luna's new video on workplace abuse, specifically how the recent Devil Wears Prada re-evaluation may indicate a culture of apologia. It's a brilliant video & I love collaborating with José whenever I can - highly recommend checking it out :)

These guys are spending millions of dollars making crappy movies to keep giving YouTube creators like me easy material.

grifters grifting each other all the way down

it feels impossible to say goodbye to my special little guy. for 17 years i watched Smudge grow into a huge, formidable cat... who still acted like a tiny kitten. i will always miss his friendship, his unbelievably soft "bunny fur", his gentle chirps, and his ever-polite paws. thank you, mr mans </3

lest we forget

this week, we talk about an absolutely teflon guy in the pocket of a local industry. and we've got @devononearth.bsky.social with us! listen where you listen. "hey don't No Gods No Mayors episodes normally go up on thursday" yeah that's true. this one is up a day early. no reason.

happy 12th birthday to Penelope Rose, the silliest girl in the world and my very best friend.

i went to a pro-trans protest to interview the organizers, and before we could speak the cops tear gassed us, chased/kennelled us, arrested some people iirc. it was really scary. you can see how it played out here, starting at 35:38

Lotta cool trans people whose work you should check out or who you should hire in this thread

Happy Trans Day of Visibility, on which we are also celebrating our 5th Wedding Anniversary.

okay also: i understand why Chum Chum Chilla reminds people of Bojack Horseman, and i appreciate the sentiment, but i feel obligated to point out that Bojack was written as a leftie guy who does leftie guy misogyny while thinking he's progressive. and i think that's kind of an important distinction.

"everyone's so busy criticizing that they forget to enjoy things" could be a decent take in any other year but in 2026 it's like... yeah ?? i should hope so ?? the world is being torn apart, anti-intellectualism is the status quo, and the overwhelming media message is "shut up, submit to the boot."

thank you all so much for making my first video on Chip Chilla my most popular video of all time - in just 2 months !! I am humbled and grateful to see such a positive response to my work. i'm putting the final touches on Part 2 now. see you soon 🩵

Going live a bit early so we can be raided into! Stop on by and hang out! www.twitch.tv/ladyemilypre...

if your punchline is either "woman" or "queer" you're not telling a joke, it is exhausting to have to keep going over this

rewatching bojack horseman for a thing and it's painful the extent to which she is literally me

chum chum chilla vibes

A man was just convicted of gross negligent manslaughter for leaving his girlfriend on a mountain to go get help. Too harsh, or not harsh enough? skepchick.org/2026/03/the-...

it's wild to me (but it shouldn't be) how many celebrity men write memoirs confessing to actual crimes. listening to this episode, i was frequently reminded of Marilyn Manson's memoir (which i read for an upcoming project). they really do tell on themselves. we should react sooner.

seeking 5 best friends ASAP so i can learn the magic of friendship

stop encouraging her

Over the last 15 years establishment media has abidcated their duty to provide astute literary and cultural analysis (often replacing it with pointed far-right agitprop). We are trying to rebuild cultural analysis, free from capitalist delusions and desires. Won't you help us?
