I suggest getting angrier about misogyny.

"at least be nice about-" no. Girl. Kill him over it. We're done. It's been centuries of this bullshit since time immemorial and he hasn't learned. Obliterate him.

ORC AFFIRMATIONS

My scars are COOL and TUSKY

My scars DO look like I got them during RITUAL COMBAT

My scars DO NOT look like I got them by tripping over a RUSTY FENCE concealed by TREACHEROUS UNDERBRUSH

MY SCARS ARE VALID NO MATTER WHAT GORM SAYS

[juniper-ascending]

Listening and nodding sympathetically: I dunno dude sounds like you should kill gorm

[orcposts]

it does still make me insane specifically how many queer people lovingly embrace astrology. I went to a poetry workshop yesterday that was genuinely quite good but also included an option to disclose astrology designations during introductions and so many people broke out some variation of "I'm a [x] sum but I have a [y] placement and it SHOWS" girl no it doesn't. that's meaningless correlation you completely invented the causation

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

I'd say that rejecting biological determinism in favor of space gas determinism isn't the slay the astrology queers think it is but if I'm being completely honest I fear that many members of our community haven't even really rejected biological determinism so much as sprinkled a layer of glitter on it

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

yes that's how confirmation bias works

[within-stars]

People get their panties up in a twist about astrology because they think it’s people shoving themselves into boxes that are not pre-existing.

Most people who like astrology like it because it reflects things about themselves that they relate to that they have difficulty vocalizing themselves. And things like doing a chart reading can allow you to gaze deeply into yourself

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

yes that's how confirmation bias works

The State's sole purpose should be guaranteeing every single person housing, healthcare, food/water, utilities, and civil services like mail and public transit. Everything else is window dressing.

Any state apparatus that doesn't do that isn't worth its salt.

[analog-delight]

For those in the notes saying education or environmental protections or whatever else: fundamentally I agree with you, but there's a reason I picked what I picked.

Everything has to come after guaranteed housing. Everything has to come after guaranteed food and water. Everything has to come after guaranteed healthcare. Everything has to come after guaranteed electricity and internet in this day and age.

If you can be unhoused, you can have everything taken from you. If you can be underfed, you can have everything taken away from you. These are not liberties or privileges. These need to be the absolute floor for human rights.

Any state apparatus that doesn't guarantee them is worthless, regardless of whatever else it does.

[analog-delight]

and also notice I didn't say "citizen". Citizenship is a fucking scam.

"Men Aren't Better Than Women: Both Genders Are Inferior To Me" is a 1991 book by Dr. Ivo Robotnik (better known for other work). Though its primary purpose is clearly to stroke the author's own ego, it is generally regarded as a comprehensive, well-constructed, and accessible work of contemporary feminist theory, and is still commonly-cited to this day.

Most of the critical complaints have been about the tone; in a review from 2005, Professor Victoria of Spagonia University said, "The constant self-aggrandizement undercuts the idea that its subject ought to be taken seriously. Also, wasn't the 'feminist' line from the Sonic Heroes manual a mistranslation of 'womanizer'?"

In 2026, Dr. Robotnik released a new edition updated for the preceding 35 years of developments in feminism, with the subtitle changed from "Both Genders" to "All Genders."

So we're all gonna let the new Harry Potter show die on the vine, right? No hatewatching. No thinkpieces. No videos about how bad it is. Deprive it of oxygen and let it wither away unremarked-upon and unprofitable; make HBO lose their entire investment and prove to the corporate entertainment sphere that the entire IP is poison. And spend that time doing something that brings you joy instead.

I wish every ad that takes you to app store or any site as soon as your finger accidentally touches it a very. bankrupt and die

[ouroborosorder]

there’s an interesting way that like. Tropes flow sometimes. The way that isekai went from “what if a useless normal guy was in Narnia” to “What if a normal guy became the coolest guy in Narnia” to the current popular subversion “what if a normal guy became the coolest girl in Narnia but didn’t give a shit and just wanted to run a farm”

shoutout to the woman from my high school martial arts class who liked to get me in joint locks and then joke about how I was easy to catch. you cannot comprehend how psychosexually formative that was for me

[agnesandhilda]

imagine, if you will, having an adolescent half-crush on someone way older than you, which is also confusingly blurred up with admiration of them as a role model. now imagine that you and that person are in a social environment where it is acceptable to (platonically, consensually) choke someone. I think I was very normal about it considering the circumstances

[agnesandhilda]

she would demonstrate takedowns on her husband (also in the class, and who was not a small man) before we got to try them and the first time I saw her twist him around and down onto the floor like it was easy my entire abdomen clenched

[agnesandhilda]

I cannot stress enough how eager this guy was to be manhandled (womanhandled?) and flipped around by his wife. he was her de facto guinea pig whenever she got to teach and I never saw him unenthusiastic about it. he'd set himself up for a joint lock fully smiling. the other adults in the class occasionally teased him about it (being so quick to let your wife put you in a submission hold tends to raise a few eyebrows), and I always kind of wanted to defend him but what would I have said? like, don't worry. I won't judge you. I also like being pinned down by your wife

[draculaisagothwizzard-deactivat]

That last sentance really hits ya like a psychosexually formative takedown

Democracy is a system of government where if an elected official does something horrid or makes an awful choice it's actually your fault because you either voted for them or neglected to vote against them or neglected to convince enough people to vote against them

I didn’t know Mr. T pityed fool’s that weren’t woke, but that’s awesome. #respect

[lordxeras]

“I think about my father being called ‘boy’, my uncle being called ‘boy’, my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called ‘boy’. So I questioned myself: “What does a black man have to do before he’s given the respect as a man?” So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man. I self-ordained myself Mr. T so the first word out of everybody’s mouth is “Mr.” That’s a sign of respect that my father didn’t get, that my brother didn’t get, that my mother didn’t get.“

-Mr. T on the subject of his name

[voidbat]

is it any wonder the media derided him for these things? a black man having the unmitigated gall to control his own narrative? defang that shit with mockery.
