he/him. I live in a blue dot in a deep red state and I am sick of being told I should give up even more of my principles to appease even more bigots. I like Gundam and not much else.
A few other details. Alt text for all of them: various bathroom fixtures in champagne brass and a shower niche lined with strips of green faux marble tile
It turns out the ability alluded to by the trade name Abilify is the ability to sleep for like five hours in the middle of the day. You just got moved to the PM side of my pill minder my good bitch
Guys I just met John Brown and he's seriously into darkwave. I asked him about abortion and he didn't hear me because he was listening to a Tempers album so loud I could hear it out his earbuds. He shot a couple cops and drank a lime-cucumber Gatorade, make of that what you will
I’m really trying not to go for cheap heat on here but you can write off any politician that does not support trans rights without equivocating because it’s the morally correct thing to do and additionally because it means they’re not above selling anyone out.
Just randomly remembered that one of the few times we see a Simpsons character playing a console video game it's Milhouse playing Bonestorm with a six-button Genesis pad and thought to myself "makes sense Bonestorm would be a Sega exclusive." Genesis does what Nintendon't
Just figured out what this album reminds me of and it's the old Terran Trade Authority art books. This is the sort of music that would be playing over a Chris Foss painting of a spaceship zooming through a nebula
Manor Lords is satisfying even though it has very poor documentation. I brought my village through a harsh winter with no idea what i should do but feed them all the fuckin carp and mushrooms I could find and it worked.
I've got eighteen men who'll put down their scythes and pick up their spears when I tell them to march on a bandit camp. At least half of them have seen three battles. Hard bastards. I'm glad to let them go back to the fields.
Watching the first episode of Reacher and I wish someone had told me that he's basically Chaotic Good Parker: an enormous, dangerous man who's very good at his job, which here happens to be crime-solving instead of crime-doing
I don't have too much attachment to The Prodigy and the album itself is sort of blah but the name ALWAYS OUTNUMBERED BUT NEVER OUTGUNNED is pretty great
I go to sleep listening to YouTube documentaries. One of them is ASMR Mesopotamian history and the other is meticulous naval history and you might not believe which one got weirdly transphobic tonight.
zionism in practice really does involve a fair amount of deep down not believing arabs/muslims are really human beings, or at least human beings who matter. thats a hard thing to admit for some people but it just is true. and a lot of times it's not even deep down
“Representative Hakeem Jeffries, Democrat of New York and the minority leader, met privately in recent weeks with Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and top outside adviser, and discussed potential areas of common ground, according to five people with knowledge of the meeting.”
BRUH.
Stephen Jay Gould's "The Mismeasure of Man" isn't an easy read but it's worth it because he proves over and over and OVER again how no matter how hard eugenicists rig it, they can never make a line of regression that proves any ethnicity is smarter than another
Because I've spent a lot of time in the paleogenomics space, I've been watching this new iteration of race science develop in real time over the past 15 or so years (same guys, in a lot of cases). I was really hoping it would disappear on its own, but we're really gonna have to fight this battle.
The racists latched onto ancient DNA and population genomics, not because that scientific framework proves that they're right but because it gives them the appearance of legitimacy with which to make the claims they already wanted to make.

Populations, in a genetic sense, are not "races" in the racialist sense, no matter how much the new scientific racists try to elide the two. That's the most important thing to remember when they start in on the topic.
So now, instead of being able to understand the ancient DNA evidence as telling us something on its own terms, we have to address all of this absolutely ahistorical idiocy and nonsense before we can actually use the incredibly useful and cool new tool.
Look, are we the laughing stock of the world? Yes. Are we losing a war we should’ve never started? Yes. Is all our food poison now? Yes. Are all the jobs going away? Yes. But the important thing is a blue-haired college student I made up in my head feels bad about memes.
Sorry chatbot lovers but the waning of Boolean operators in most search functions on websites has made my life actively worse. You can't find anything, you can only have things suggested to you.
The fact that ZZ Top never covered Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People" is all the proof I need to know that we live in a fallen world. I am not lying and I am not making this statement under duress. Imagine a harmonica player going buck wild to that song and thank me later
It's been five years since an influencer deliberately crashed a Taylorcraft for views and I'm still mad about it. A T-Craft is an extremely docile and pleasant airplane so letting it fly into a mountain is like letting an old Labrador drive a car off of a bridge

Kroger's grapefruit soda turns out to be one of those store brands that punches way above its weight. It actually tastes sour enough that I had to double check that it didn't actually have grapefruit juice in it like Izze or the other fancy sodas. It's cheaper than their grapefruit sparkling water!
How did I miss that Gundam Channel put all of G-Witch dubbed and subbed up on YouTube for free two entire years ago? Please enjoy this lesbian romance that ends in a marriage that Bandai-Namconstill exists is not gay:

Now, look, I don't know if the poor fellow plagarized or not. But I know when NYT publishes an op ed by Jesse Singal on plagarism accusations against a Black British academic no one in the US has heard of it's not really a story about plagarism any more than the stories about Claudine Gay were.
