Evil people have to start dying RIGHT NOW

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

Snug bug.

I guess it's kind of hard to view the dismissal of one grublike phrenologist as a major hit to free speech after major American universities have in the past year banned the use of words and eliminated entire departments in the hopes of pleasing the senile president

"If trans people want a boycott of The New York Times, where's the call to do so?" Here is a declaration laying out how the NYT is a key driver of trans genocide, why boycotts work and why anyone who gives a damn about trans lives and rights must boycott The New York Times.

Boycott The New York Times

For years The New York Times has relentlessly pushed anti-trans propaganda, playing a significant role in the escalating genocide against us. It's far past time for a call to action: anyone who cares ...

exploding a data center is not enough. I need to hear ChatGPT die while saying it’s afraid like in 2001

we're conditioned not to talk about rape because this is the most advantageous outcome for rapists, who occupy the highest rungs of our hierarchy

idk i can't help but see the vitriol against depicting sexual assault in art as deeply related to the overwhelming societal pressure to sweep sexual violence under the rug. it feels very... pearl clutching

talking about and depicting rape helps us understand it as something that happens in real life, can be survived and recovered from, does not damage a victim's humanity or make their life worth less, and does not occur in a vacuum for no reason.

Whats a movie everyone fucking loves that you despise? It doesnt have to be objectively bad, you just objectively DID NOT. Heres one for me since Ive been on a Barbara Loden kick lately-

this seems really hard for some people to understand, but the nature of having politics or even moral beliefs at all is that i agree with some beliefs and don't agree with others. and it's not arbitrary, like rooting for a sports team. the differences are important.

The guy who opened fire at Comet Pizza because he'd cooked his brain online and believed they were a child sex trafficking hub was exactly as confident the people he was aiming at deserved it as Luigi Mangione, which is just one reason it's a bad idea to lionise vigilante murder.

hello bluesky.I told my mother I liked Clive Barker's writing even tho she does not and she was like I'll give him another try (got her into SGJ this way) but some wires crossed and she remember it as me liking DEAN KOONTZ and she tried to read a DEAN KOONTZ and she told her blog i like DEAN KOONTZ

You're wicked, and a dark spirit. I hope you heal.

been chewing this one over cause I think it's right, for a certain kind of quality, but--and I'm just gonna be an unbridled hater here--a lot of popular webtoons strike me as basically comics illiterate, totally uninterested in comics as a form rather than as a vehicle for rapid narrative conveyance

So let's talk about what those expectations are now: 🔴Demand for Higher quality- less readers will check out beginner looking works or comics that feel too 'faulty' in style meaning less excitement to see webcomics grow over the years. Polish is expected and commented on consistently by readers

out it goes: my long post about Rachel Hope Cleves's claim that Tillie Walden plagiarised her book. It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here. Cleves's claim does not hold up. buttondown.com/thene/archiv...

i am working on a very, very long blog post that could really have fit into a skeet: When someone posts that "this website/journal article/etc proves my dramatic claim!!!" and then does not link to the website, journal article, etc, it is because it does not in fact prove their dramatic claim.

I'm going to spoil the Final Weirdness because I don't expect anyone to read that far. I wasn't sure I should put this in the post at first, but every friend I mentioned it to put their jaw on the floor; Cleves, who is trying to torpedo a lesbian artist's career, is married to a tech VP guy.

I think there are two gens, people over 40 and people under 40, and that's it and nobody gets to feel special anymore

The advice "Don't make your first project a overambitious sprawling epic" is good. The problem is that I don't think people can really learn that lesson before they ignore the advice and just do it anyways. Sometimes you have to throw the baby into the pool to teach it how to swim.

people have walked by me and say "wow you smell really good!" giggles sweetly 🌝

what's your fav compliment a complete stranger has given you? mine is I was walking home from the grocery store while wearing my neon green pants and an old lady stopped me and said "where'd you get those pants young man? you look damn good in them. you look DAMN good in them."

crying laughing bc i know there are people who will see this and get so pissed they throw up

SOmeone PLEASE make a sfw mod to cover up this WHORE

Webtoons going all in on AI.

"One cannot trust a dragon," stated Sir Pellinore, drawing himself to his feet. "They may speak the words of man, but they do so with a forked tongue." "A really long, really flexible tongue," said George. "What?" said Sir Pellinore. “Nothing," said George.
