IN A WORLD OF HER OWN (2016) Acrylic on Canvas - 36" x 48" This painting arose from musing on an interview that Stanley Kubrick gave in 1968, a source of inspiration I have gone back to over the years, revisiting comments made by the director. #art

I know you and I have talked about this before, but I really wish we would all collectively stop using the word LARP to mean "pretend." I have friends with literal phds in the subject of role-playing. LARP is so, so much more than just wish-fulfillment pretending.

I'm so hype for Dropout to do more scripted stuff! ❤️ I love the improv obviously, but I know so many of the cast and crew are literally comedy writers as well, so it's great to see that side of their talents too! Also I heard Zach and Jess wrote the music for this? I see them behind Paul F Tompkins

correlation isn't causation but I lost over 10lbs since getting a convertible standing desk Not only am I standing like, 1/3 of the time that I'd be sitting now (which is most of the day, I work and play on computer), but also I can get up and do tasks without interrupting my brain flow

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Um okay I hate to do this but ever since I had to pay for a bunch of school and visa stuff all at once I've been struggling to cover costs and have been without my prescriptions, including my ADHD meds and HRT for months now. If anyone can help so I can get back on track, I'd appreciate it.

what do you do when you need to ask people for help but you feel immense guilt about it at all moments

republicans used to complain about the violence in gangster rap and now they want to livestream an execution

"Adult Human Female" has never been the definition of a woman - despite what anti-feminists like J. K. Rowling and Donald Trump might claim. So why have TERFs decided to change the dictionary definition of woman? 🤔📖 youtu.be/UshXbhOuIL8

Over the past two weeks, I’ve been following the attempts to smear the Jane Doe in the Cornell University gang rape case and redirect blame from the seven fraternity men onto her. As usual, this campaign is built on a mountain of lies and misogyny. spitfirenews.com/p/cornell-ja...

spitfirenews.comDebunking the smear campaign against the Cornell Jane DoeAuthorities, media outlets, and pundits are lying about this woman. But only her credibility is getting judged.

This flew under my radar for a *while*. I happened upon his videos without knowing anything about him, and only found out he was a rapist when I saw a post about it by chance. It is unfortunately so easy for rapists to just move on, and easy for us to not realize just who we are supporting.

yall giving millions of views to a man who raped me

To Marina, I'm sorry for accidentally supporting this man, and for ever recommending his channel to others. Thank you for speaking out. I tried to go back and tell everyone directly who I ever recommended his channel to, but I'm sharing this today in case he's flown under anyone else's radar.

Bluesky right now is better for me than Twitter ever was even at its peak. While it’s definitely not an echo chamber - I wouldn’t care if it was. I’ve heard enough bigotry and anti-science garbage in my life to know what their arguments are. I don’t need to hear it every day to be educated on it.

My friend is in the hospital, and apparently it's just so loud cuz everyone keeps playing shit from their phones at top volume. And I'm just saying, if raycon can sponsor every youtuber in the world, they can send some of their damn everyday earbuds to hospitals so my friend can get some fuckin rest

It’s honestly really triggering for me that once again, in the aftermath of people finding out a man who is a beloved public figure committed sex crimes in his past, the conversation has to immediately shift into how and when the guy can return to the status quo he was in

The “restorative justice” convos around Geller l miss the point. Maybe he is/was on that path. But he is owed nothing from us and I have more empathy for victims who found comfort in his work (like myself, I own his fucking book) and now feel betrayed at having emotionally invested in an abuser.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.
