While "bad breeds" are a myth when it comes to dogs, a furry with a german shepherd fursona is pretty much guaranteed to be a cop-lover
As a life long brain drain and bimbofication fetishist it makes me utterly insane to live in a world that DOES have the phone app that makes you too stupid to function (Any AI Product) but it isn't even hot
it’s hard to talk politics anymore because the natural response to everything is “oh they should be killed” but you’re not allowed to say it. it’s more illegal than open pedophilia
A good day to watch Anocha Suwichakornpong's second film BY THE TIME IT GETS DARK, which centres on an indie film crew making a film about the Thammasat massacre & goes hypnotically into the effects of trauma on memory and the present: player.bfi.org.uk/subscription...

Today is the 50th anniversary of the 6 October massacre at Thammasat University, a major moment in modern Thai history The massacre saw state-backed right-wing groups kill at least 41 pro-democracy protestors and ended Thailand's 1973-1976 democratic period No one has ever been held responsible
extremely dangerous bullshit happening in Germany again
Were the "asocials" and "criminal" prisoners in the concentration camps victims? Apparently, we need to have that discussion again. Hape Kerkeling, the German queer comedian, spoke in Erfurt last week and demanded the ban on the AfD due to the party's relativization of Nazi crimes.
I saw photos of the plaster casts from Pompeii when I was 6, and had nightmares for months.
In honor of scary media month: what is the first piece of media you remember truly frightening you as a child?
it’s gonna be so funny when they decide “lowtax any%” is a bannable offense
basically all discourse on transition is this one exchange and for some reason we have to keep doing it
ive said it before but i think “u dont have to be trans to transition” is so much more helpful than “u dont have to transition to be trans” bc it prioritizes agency and self actualization over ruminating on identity indefinitely
Finally caught the cold that kicked the shit out of my housemates over the last couple weeks. Good thing I'm not supposed to be moving in 5 hours or anything
Infection of the Coiled Flesh This beast has been taken over by a peculiar parasite that infects by turning the body inside out, twisting it into spiraled forms. The infection may be slow to fully take over, crippling its victim more and more until they are nothing but a writhing mass of coils.
This popped into my head wholly formed shortly after finishing Kay Chronister's Desert Creatures

we should have people writing thinkpieces about Tigr’s mullet
Kamikaze Hearts (1986) this might be the pinnacle of queer indie cinema
my gay ass could not survive bearing witness to a great becoming without getting a little wet

Respect to @hausofdecline.bsky.social for continuing to put out brilliant comics about the DEERGIRL experience knowing full well that people will take them literally and miss the point.
Has anyone checked to see how many trans people got autoblocked by Bluesky's head of Trust & Safety in the past 24 hours?

The novel also traces some of its lineage very clearly to another terrific sf classic, Alfred Bester's THE STARS MY DESTINATION / TIGER, TIGER (1956).
Blurbed this back in the day: THE VANISHED BIRDS finds an intimate heartbeat of longing in a saga of galactic progress and its crushing fallout. A novel of vast scope that yet makes time for compassion, wonder, and poetry.
The Vanished Birds by Simon Jimenez - amazing post-colonial space opera that released to seeming silence
