Well, unless you value losing yet again, have you considered maybe delivering a candidate worth voting for rather than demanding we back your dogshit pick?

Vibe coders get in the bin, please. Remember when tech mostly worked, and when it didn’t, there were usually ways to fix it? If there is an area of existence tech bros’ insistence on shoving this down our throats hasn’t actively made worse, I have yet to find it.

Oh, and while that's happening, his "harem" (actually circle of friends who happen to be girls his own age because other male players are creeps) watch from the sidelines and try to figure out what's going on because he never told them about the skeleton guy because that would endanger them.

Bonus hot take: Never, ever declare any country’s art to be inherently inferior to another’s. Doesn’t matter the reason, it’s pigeonholing and stereotyping. [insert Batman “these are the tools of the enemy” meme here] Besides that, it impedes efforts to preserve art, which is a SEVERE problem.

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

Isekai is animanga's current equivalent of instant ramen: it has a purpose. Just because it's objectively inferior doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. Even gourmet chefs eat instant food sometimes.

This was on tumblr, and I was trying to find this post because it is SO IMPORTANT to spread around and for everyone to READ IT! Fuck off with the discourse and READ!! CW; mentions of child abuse

So One Piece's creator has been found supporting a sex offender. Does this mean I'm finally allowed to say its art style is ugly, or should I wait a couple months for you to finish the current arc?

Not weeby or a hot take, but I wish everyone could just fuck off with the creator harassment already. Unless their literally funding the extermination of a group of people of the backs of their IP, just let them be. Anime, Manga, Indie animation, whatever. Just let people fucking be.

In light of what happened to Syundei, I am once again asking you all to get used to being uncomfortable. Stop expecting fiction to align with your morals. Learn to drop a thing and move on to something else. Your discomfort is valid, but it's no reason to harass people. discomfort =/= harm

Happy National Anime Day!

how it feels to have a million WIP ideas but no energy to bring them to life:

“People need to be nicer to each other online” and “people need to develop thicker skin because it’s not normal or healthy to get upset at everything you don’t agree with” are two statements than can and should coexist actually

children are the biggest oppressed social group in the world

Voter registration for the Scottish Election closes in ONE WEEK (20th April)! Its really important that trans voices are heard. Sometimes trans & non-binary people experience problems when registering to vote, so make sure you do so soon. Find out more: scottishtrans.org/register-to-vote-2026

Friend of mine got publicly harassed on a panel by a comics writer everyone knew was a creeper—to the extent that older female editors would carefully make sure no young women sat next to him in meetings. When she wrote about her experience, even without naming the guy, she got death threats

People waging a war against kodocon stuff are either 1) knowingly hunting harmless people for sport because they think they can get away with it, or 2) deeply immature and misguided about the nature of art, kink, and desire. Either way, they’re not worth engaging with or worrying about. Fuck ‘em.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

AI footage in the quote post. However it's a real fact, with real footage available (See my link below). Now people who believed it have a false image of how octopus act, and people who recognise it as AI question a real observed scientific fact. Utter bullshit. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN9B...

fucking coexist

Pixar’s scrapped film ‘BE FRI’ reportedly had a similar tone to ‘KPop Demon Hunters.’ A former staffer claims Disney felt “little boys couldn’t see themselves in it,” allegedly saying, “We can’t have a girl power movie.”

But see Hoppers, everyone!

I know The Guy's lore. That must mean I want to blow up Palestinians. Yes, even though I boycotted Disturbed as soon as I saw that post. Yes, even though his voice makes me sick now. Yes, even though I support Palestine entirely. I was still a fan at some point, so I must secretly be a Zionist.

Nonbinary people are not required to perform androgyny

Eisner winner hates efficiency. Typical. Clearly one of those types who thinks wordy = smart. Actually he blocked me after my spaghetti comment hurt his feelings. This is what fame does to you.

The problem with mainstream feminism is the idea that women should change themselves because men can't. Women are responsible for fixing the world's problems because men won't. Women should clean men's messes.

i got another one, and it might be a bit more controversial: if you see so many sexualised teenage girls in anime and manga, it might be because you exclusively watch and read stuff aimed at adolescent boys.

"Unlike other anime, this isn't full of fanservice that sexualizes minors." This isn't the compliment you think it is, babies. It's not only puritan finger wagging, it tells me you hardly watch anime, and what you do watch is the stuff made for teenage boys.

You can't know if you'll like an anime by its first episode alone. Action anime tend to be more cliché and pandering on their first episodes while SoLs tend to be more simple and repetitive. Anime series don't fully hit their strides until about episode 3.

The two truths: 1) There is nothing wrong with porn, let people safely make it, let people safely enjoy it. 2) If you let people define porn as bad, authoritarians will ALWAYS expand the definition until their hands are around your neck.

Remember when you hated the animated series Velma because it was annoying and bitter and racist and co-creator Mindy Khaling sexually harassed someone? And remember when season two came out and you praised it for no real reason except chuds hated it? This is why I don't trust you.

I think any discussion blaming Americans for the situation they're in is at best ignorant of the vast amounts of voter suppression inherent in our day to day lives, and at worst sounds identical to the liberals that fake concern about student protests "stopping" after Kamala lost.

morning people rule the goddamn world and it’s horrible

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man

Randomly remembered Tim Burton's work on Fox and the Hound.

You think I'm illiterate for not wanting to write a ten-page essay about a green light, but you don't know what "antihero" means.

Don't forget trans men and boys today, their wholesome and positive masculinity is important and I love them 🥰

Big damn reminder for International Trans Day of Visibility that transmasc folks are equally deserving of love and visibility; the tacit and explicit denial of their space and place in the trans community at large is still a big problem. Give them care today too please.

I'm a little concerned by the way people of all genders objectify goth girls. We used to be all spooky and mysterious. Now we're heartless domme mommies who exist solely for your masochistic pleasure. Do you think being masochist makes you moral? Or safe? Because I feel threatened.

If someone somewhere said something to offend you, say what it is and then expand on that instead of attacking broad concepts. Because I agree that Star Trek is political! Anyone with half a brain can see that, and anyone who denies that despite watching it is probably a dangerous person.

I need multiple accounts for my personalities.

Give your dog men dog penises, cowards!

I can't talk right anymore. I can't form the words I want to say because the stress from sharing a planet with fascists killed my brain cells, so now I'm too tired to hide or control my default emotion which is anger. I wonder if this is what senility is like.

Is it weird that I kind of hate live music? I see why it was necessary long ago, but now we have technology. Why perform where you have less control over what your audience hears when you can record it once and edit it to perfection? Maybe this question was answered in the '80s and I missed it.
