Yeahhh the adhd/autism/probably ocd combo is really kicking my ass lately. Hope you're on the mend 💜

yuuuuuuuup. "if i just do More and i do it Better then i won't even have time to linger on it anyway so it doesn't matter"

Current mood

Imagine being THAT mad that youre wrong. Anyway Ralsei is the prettiest princess

There are so many ways that the traditional centrist-liberal mindset thinks certain basic political practices somehow constitute cheating, and having an international is one of them

Obligatory- i know the whole movement isn’t like that. I’ve talked to Kala! But im just so shocked by the people that wrote the petition. All that leaked that you want is by those people. You want that, you need them for that. How do you think games are made. Christ.

🫩 don’t make me tap the sign.

you cannot trust marxist-leninists. marxism-leninism structurally selects for either ignorant or immoral people (specifically people willing to ignore its grave historical crimes). also its *founding organizational tenet* (democratic centralism) structurally selects for dishonesty and entryism

Didn't Brianna Wu co-found Rebellion PAC? I have to assume she's not involved anymore

my girlfriend is literally playing essentially Cat Petterz and she says she's not noelle-coded My GIRL, YOU ARE PLAYING A SILLY GAME OF FIGHTING CATS THE FUCK YOU MEAN??

guy whose only ""contribution"" to humanity is increasing child mortality and pausing the trend of lifespans going up:

It's weird NIMBY shit (and also weird racial machine shit, and NPIC shit). Kinda insane to me that National even bothered treating it seriously. But I think the "moderates" amongst the dumber half of the org probably thought this was a compromise.

WHO WOULD WIN objectively best living conditions in human history VS. "i have to see transgenders on twitter :("

I also think it is important here to distinguish between a sports-esque 'rooting interest' and a recognition that populist authoritarian leaders and movements tend to understand themselves as allies of each other. Orban and Putin spent a lot of money promoting authoritarianism abroad.

Making sure that large swathes of Biden's non-economic hires never work in a Democratic admin again is going to be a big project but one that needs to happen.

Presenting krusielle or genderfluid ralsei as "everybody wins" is a disservice to both of them.

They saw how many hoes he had.

some Koi arts

You could not fucking pay me to go back to twitter I only opened it back up bc someone sent me something and in the comments there was someone so fucking mad at people for reading Ralsei as trans that they started ranting about how people like them are why they hate women. Fundamentally unwell site

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

You should care because the Amazon rainforest affects us all. It absorbs a significant chunk of humanity’s CO2 emissions, and if the ecosystem collapses, it would alter regional and global rainfall patterns, and become a net global emitter. Deforestation fell to a record low under Lula.

they did invent like.... algebra, and organized hospitals... and fountain pens... and standardized coffee brewing and secure cryptograpbic processing algorithms on computers these guys are such fucking dullards

you know I just assumed it was my adult palate that's made the chocolate in things like hershey's or reese's taste worse to me but no, apparently the chocolate has also gotten worse!

I think ‘luxury beliefs’ are a real thing, but my mildly provocative take is that this is not inherently a bad or good thing about the belief in question. It being easier to hold a principled belief if you’re in a position of relative privilege doesn’t mean the principle is wrong.

The way blue hair baristas have been moving according to chuds that keep losing elections after they dismantled the deep state:

This is why I hate the “it has to be subtle!!!” Critique of queer media. The fact that we can’t just say what we are or what the character is is so reductive and constraining to so many queer writers. Don’t let cis people dictate how you show you identity. They don’t know what they’re saying.

"fascists are so comically evil" yeah comic book villainy is BASED on fascism. thats the point. hitler is culturally the template for "horrible evil". fascists WANT to be and LIKE evil and think that evil is cool and good and want to be comic book villains

Me and oomfs

this is why engineers (and to some extent physicists) are the most annoying educated people on earth, because they think you can view the world as purely quantitative and rigid, which is not how anything works, because the map is not the territory.

I put on a lore video to nap to and the lore was so wrong i got angry and more awake

start paying artists you fucks!!!! the potential of you reaching nirvana depends on it!

Most pundits have a weird combination of genuine disdain for the general public, but also a deep envy of them as “real Americans”

Actually I think Your Dad would have a better ability to intuit the finer details of the social behaviors of an orangutan than these douchebags have the ability to represent the sentiments of whatever kludged average of Americans believe

The way pundits talk about "most Americans" is how an average Joe talks about zoo animals, extremely patronizing and also almost entirely wrong

the subheader here basically amounts to 'youre not really working-class if you dont abandon all your principles to appear more racist' which kinda gives the game away
