So, am I just in my bubble or is the attempt to whip up a red scare out of whole cloth falling directly on its face? Do other people see this?

Probably The Matrix, which, looking back on, seems much more like a "hard PG-13" than a R-rated film. I think it's just because they shoot a bunch of cops in that lobby scene.

I am no longer a liberal, but I often defend them from unfair critiques. And then THIS motherfucker...

over the last 10 years of increasing discrimination and demonization of trans people, I have watched so many trans friends and acquaintances become angrier & more bitter, just as I have also become. that's what years of hate thrown at you will do to you.

I'm still trying to pay off Minion's surgery and rehab. Any help is appreciated. Thank you so much. paypal.me/MsAprilDaniels

You've starred your last trek!

Lady in the Water.

So did Trump say anything in his Big Important Speech or was it just a long slurring complaint about ratings?

it is pretty insane that the movement which produced the idea that Kamala Harris would go to war in Iran has not produced any sort of resistance, even messaging, about the actual war in Iran

"The Communists wish to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids."

This is massively important and they are obviously hoping we won't notice.

Mitch McConnell has consistently demonstrated questionable integrity. He is often referred to as "Moscow Mitch."

This makes sense as Rowling's game plan to make anti-trans bigotry above reproach in the UK. It's a terrifying gambit that deserves to fail or there will be no bottom to how low she and others can go in their efforts to harm trans people in the United Kingdom.

This is straightforward extortion. "Agree that you were wrong to criticize me, and further agree that all my friends are above criticism, or I will destroy you." It's such an unreasonable demand that it seems to me that she has already decided on litigation and this letter is only a formality.

HRT for me but not for thee 😑

Gonna get wild and have Writing Opinions now. Batten down the hatches and hide your wife, I have no limits and cannot be contained. 1. Show vs. Tell is a stupid concept unless you're writing a screenplay. If you're writing prose, the choice should be to Describe or to Dramatize, and both are good.

I'm out of the loop. What did JK Rowling do now?

I am very happy with the tGiTS's decision to finally let the Major be out and proud, but holy shit that boat scene is awkward.

I need a Jadzia Dax card.

Which is more socially awkward, playing Pokemon cards or playing Magic The Gathering?

This post went viral recently on IG/FB because it was blowing Gen Z minds that this is how jobs used to work. And this is precisely how we were able to have such helpful store weirdos: Being a vacuum cleaner weirdo at Sears was a legit lifelong career!

A thing that made the old Internet good was all the world’s weirdos came together to offer their deep expertise on niche subjects. Now it’s so much harder to find that online, and we’ve destroyed the weirdos’ natural habitats. Netflix homepage could NEVER recommend a film like a video store weirdo.

I've got it saved, here you go.

I love superhero comics, but I hate the stasis I really think "there are alien civilizations, we are in contact with them, they visit all the time" ought to have like an impact

let’s also never discount the fact that at the end of the day all of these cis people do consider trans people as lesser and thus an insult to ever insinuate someone could be one. we also see this play out any time it’s suggested that someone might not be straight. it’s all homophobia.

One thing I really enjoy is the reality that basically all trans women who can do art are doing it about the topic of trans women.

HOME ALONE 5: HOME INVASION Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin), a veteran FBI criminal profiler, recruits a pair of recidivist criminals (Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern) to help him burgle the house of a man he suspects to be a Rube Goldberg-inspired serial killer (Tobin Bell).

X-Com '94 HD re-release.

GiTS is better than it's been in years.

I heard through the grapevine that Mitch McConnell's last words were "It's time to release the Epstein files."

I get new art crushes on a monthly, even weekly basis. My existence is a Hell of limerence I have fashioned for myself.

I get huge, unbearable art-crushes on people I've never met. Like, "oh my god, look at her soul, it's huge" but for trans women I've never met. It's wonderful, but awful.

Here's a great petition to sign. It's nice to have a cause that isn't horrifyingly life-and-death, isn't it? c.org/Tpwx99FwmC

This is what the election is going to be about.

At least I'm not a Maine Democrat.

I watched only a few minutes of a video about "the origins of the Lost Cause" thinking it was about how dishonest history distorted our understanding of the Civil War (it was more like an uncritical transcription of claims by the losers) and now YouTube is trying to show me The Birth of a Nation.

right wingers think it's good for the ruling class to get arts and humanities degrees. they understand the value this type of education has for the rulling class. they support vocational education (which is what they consider STEM to be) for other for precisely that reason.

These men genuinely hate women. There is no way you would leave a woman unable to care for herself if you loved her. Forget divorce. You could be hit by a bus and die tomorrow and vultures would start circling her at the funeral home.

If you're a transfem who follows me and I'm not following you back, let me know so I can fix that.

When Queer Theory circles its ass all the way back around to "trans women who I want to fuck are real women, and trans women who don't want to fuck me are not."

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.

USA! USA!

I always laugh when idiots here claim America has some kind of special great warrior culture. Read history. We ain't unique when it comes to skill at arms. What we are best at is entertainment. Rap and rock will outlast the U.S. Army in human memory.

This used to be my favorite holiday.

Never forget that the height of American music is hip-hop and R&B. The White House was built by slaves. The streets of DC were engineered by a black man. The moon landing happened thanks to black women. The LGBTQ movement started in the hood. All your farming and fireworks is thanks to POC.
