idk man it just sucks so much to exist in a media ecosystem where the throughline is that it’s not worth telling a story about anyone who is not conventionally fuckable

here is the core problem with “A Poirot That Fucks” as a concept (also looking at you, Kenneth Branagh): it fundamentally misunderstands that a crucial piece of why women and girls in often terrifying circumstances feel safe bringing their problems to him is that they don’t deem sexualized by him

The 1979 Star Trek poster resembles a Pride flag but it seemed like something was missing so I added some square wrinkles

hey man we used AI in the production process of this game but don't worry none of it made it in the game, it was a huge waste of time and money, and we could've just looked at stock photos at the end of the day. You have to accept the future.

Join us in wishing Ume safe travels on her next adventure! It’s hard to believe the tiny calf who arrived looking like a little “watermelon on legs” is now a confident, independent young tapir ready for her next chapter. Over the past year, we’ve watched Ume grow, explore, and capture many hearts. ❤️

I don't know if the birds found her hair or if they plucked it directly from the source, but I've found bird nests around my parents' house that make use of Paprika's mane and tail. Birds are so resourceful.

Okay, folks. Pull up a seat. Describing smells and sounds are part of writing. Every bit of writing advice I've received, either through self-study of books on craft or by taking classes taught by professionals, have instructed me and all other aspiring writers who have read those books or (🧵/3)

Talarico saying he's against "gender reassignment surgery for minors" to lots of nodding and impressed gestures from the Barro/Yglesias crowd and a lot of the politics press is, I think, a great example of how much the well has been poisoned on trans healthcare

One thing about BookHive is that I wish the "want to read" status put books on a shelf instead of among the list of books you've read/are reading. Instead I made my own TBR shelf to avoid the clutter. I also wish there was a way to sort by date or rating or smth. But I think I need to backtrack

yeah brother it seems kinda bad if not wholly surprising that the guy with a Nazi tattoo also had a really racist girlfriend

Living in the foothills is fun. Lots of wildlife. This kitty was found well into an urban area in Pasadena. If not friend why friend shaped?

Yes this AND ALSO this is the stupidest chart I have seen recently and I've seen a lot of stupid charts. The Latin roots for these words are not related, eg we took "rigor" as a whole word but "rigid" comes from "rigidus". Also "Rigidify" is arrested in English. Lucid, from "lux" via "lucidus" --

"Working class" in 2026 means a blue haired barista with they/them pronouns, a Asian immigrant nail technician, and an undocumented hotel cleaner. And we are going to keep having the same fights until we let the midcentury illustrator mirage of the white guy in plaid with the lunch pail go.

In the brush beneath a Mission Bay overpass, two coyotes break into song as a Caltrain barrels past. Their duet — equal parts whimper, howl and bark — rises and falls in chorus with the horn of the train.

It's not so much the OP here, but definitely what's discussed in the comments here are kind of exactly why in-depth book reviews are dying (beyond the fact that short-form is terrible for review as a format). You can't say anything about a book without people shrieking about SPOIIIIIILERS.

can also talk about mechanics, UI, difficulty, graphical fidelity, FPS, character/art design (which comes back in for animated film/TV). If even just saying tropes is a spoiler, and you can't talk about the plot, what else have you got for a book review, really? "Well, I liked some of the (2/3)
