This piece is going to make me become The Joker oh wow you don't understand what being a nonbinary transfem could be WHY DON'T YOU FUCKING ASK SOMEONE INSTEAD OF SCREAMING ABOUT HOW THEY'RE NOT ONTOLOGICALLY REAL AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE FUCKING ACADEMICS???????????
MOREOVER, ICE MUST BE DESTROYED
to me the existential threat posed by AI slop games is less "AI slop games will steal our sales" and more "the onslaught of AI slop and the exhaustion over having to second guess every new game will make people mentally check out from supporting new games at all and retreat to their backlogs"
(Also note that this is referring to *fake* scenarios)
See how censorship happens. This applies to live actors, but remember Texas has a new law making drawn illustrations a felony. They're counting on us being too ashamed to defend our rights, let's not be

Not to sound like an old man yelling at clouds but the climate today of “if this makes me personally uncomfortable then it MUST be morally wrong somehow” when it comes to sex or kink or any sort of alternative lifestyle is so incredibly dangerous. You can just not like a thing and it’s fine.
Serious question: does this mean stuff like House of the Dragon and sexy historical fiction about UK’s royal family is illegal in the UK because of this dumbass law? Like are they gonna put Matt Smith in jail over this, or is it just for punishing disenfranchised rowdy upstarts into shutting up.
THE INDEPENDENT: From 6 November, UK law will ban porn depicting strangulation, incest and adults pretending to be under 16, following cross-party pressure over its impact on women and girls.

Your regular reminder that my daughter Alice’s death wasn’t counted in Appleby’s report, despite her meeting all the criteria. And when I emailed the Tavistock adult GIC to inform them they could take Alice off the waitlist, because she’d died by suicide, they never replied. It’s a disgrace.
QueerAF can reveal figures that show 618 people have died while under the care of an NHS gender clinic, at least 21 by suicide.

why are trans people forced to live in fear of humiliation or death at the hands of people who r genuinely just dumb as fuck. like. stop everything in your life bc what if there's someone really dumb and they get scared? what the fuck is this shit
I made this useful chart so you can see how the female genders are applied! Such a special culture
Of particular interest is that trans women in the Western world are not permitted to transition to either Virgin or Mother- only Whore or Crone, the valueless genders! Fascinating
📚 One of the Nazis’ first major book burnings targeted the world’s first Trans+ clinic, where more than 20,000 books and pieces of research into Trans+ lives were erased.

I think maybe my trans novel that has helped dozens of closeted folks find themselves, and even out trans people feel more confident in their gender, would be a good book to outsell this transphobe with buckets of money behind her campaign of hatred

Wouldn't it be pretty fucking funny if my indie trans novel with $0 for our marketing budget had already sold three times as many copies as this?
Hey, wanna help make it 5 times as many, and get a sweet and scary trans coming-of-age novel too?
(it's being called one of the best books of 2026)
Very dystopian that on the article about a A.I. data center poisoning the air, there's a little rainbow A.I. chatbot button just lurking at the edge, waiting to poison the air some more to answer your banal question
My god. A Virginia data center ran backup diesel generators full blast for 24 hours, creating a giant cloud of toxic smoke that choked its human neighbors. The government claimed there was nothing they could do.

I was once told by a cop, at a training triggered by a sharp increase in drugging and SA at large events in the 2010s, that their job was to disprove allegations, that 99% of victims were liars, and they were there to lock up people who made false allegations. Which was basically everyone.
You’re sexually assaulted. You report. And the police make you the suspect.
Police unleash a slew of interrogation techniques meant for criminal suspects on vulnerable people.

New: As gay bars across the country say that Meta is flagging and deactivating their accounts without warning, I spoke to an Austin queer bar that says Meta nearly destroyed their ability to advertise events: www.chron.com/culture/arti...
gotta bring back beating the shit out of nerds. u cannot be allowed to dominate world without having gotten into the humanities, or having a functioning concept of the social contract. Nerds that encounter the humanities become boons such as sickos, perverts or artists. Nerds that don't? Streamers
Keep in perspective, though, that Rockstar won't in any way be penalized for this.
LGBTQ+ writers, artists, and game designers are being banned from places like Itchio and Patreon, by payment processors like MasterCard and PayPal, for depicting "hugging," "kissing," and "plus-sized figures."
DO NOT SEEK THE TREASURE
One of my favorite scenes from O Brother Where Art Thou. I figured I should try to draw all 3 of the Soggy bottom boys, why not.

VPN bans are a direct response to age-verification. Legislators are frustrated that people are getting around their surveillance, but rather than rethink their strategy, they're doubling down and banning VPNs.
Fight the Flock-ing of the internet.
The connection between online ID check policies and restricting VPN use is an unholy marriage. Rather than admit that censorship and social media bans doesn't keep us safe, lawmakers have put VPNs on the chopping block.
