Things I have not yet seen conversations about :

The Message : "Aim" at what ?

We actually don't know much about the Seventh as Dulcinea has told a lot of shit to Cytherea (as said in HtN), meaning we can totally assume everything C said about the Seventh in GtN is garbage. OK, they're the cancerous necro-artists, that's pretty much all.

Is Anastasia the only one who had a child and a bloodline in their House ? I believe Cytherea also had a child and a bloodline, hence the blood cancer. What about the others ?

Edit : in HtN, John & Augustine actually say Cytherea is a 2nd generation or so and Loveday brought her to them. Who was the founder or the Seventh then ? (I'm a bit confuzzled about the early timeline)

Also am I the only one seeing some Sailor Moon inspo in the caracterisation of some/ the Houses ? (Ami/Sailor Mercury being about knowledge like the Sixth ? Minako/Sailors Venus being about beauty and arts ?)

Wait a sec, Dr Sex's child writes him a letter saying they're going to become a Lyctor... Do we agree that it can't be the original creator of the Sixth ? Can we assume there already was a (failed) attempt on creating new lyctors ? Maybe my memory is a bit fuzzy on that ?

Revealing the ignorance of my youth here, but who is this and what is she known for?

[boybeetles]

Anita Sarkeesian, feminist who interpreted media under a feminist lens. She did a series about video games and she was the subject of targeted harassment. That was the start of gamergate

[flurrin]

Minor correction, the start of gamergate was based around a different reporter, Zoe Quinn, but they were both absolutely violently threatened over their involvement in video game criticism and development. A hate campaign was started by Quinn's ex-boyfriend when he wrote a post falsely accusing them of dating video game journalists in order to receive positive reviews on their own game, Depression Quest, which led other bad actors to accuse all women in the industry (Zoe identified as female at the time) of perceived sexual immorality. Anita Sarkeesian's brilliant Youtube series Tropes vs Women in Video Games (which everyone should watch, right now) sparked a particular nerve for criticizing popular games of killing and/or victimizing any important female character (there is a CHILLING bit that borders on ludicrous where she describes the plots of a seemingly endless parades of games as "In [title], [male player character's] wife dies, and you then have to rescue [his] daughter."). That series did actually make a huge change in the industry, especially when touted by progressive legacy developers like Tim Schafer (Monkey Island, Psychonauts), who went on to expand hiring in his company to front women and minority voices, but the shift didn't really show for a long time and echoes of the sexism that plagues the industry at its core are still rampant.

[crazy-pages]

In all seriousness, if you live in the US and you aren't familiar with the misogynistic harassment these people in the game industry faced during Gamergate, you need to watch this series right now.

This was the beggining of the current form of the US fascist movement and it underpins the entire thing about it to this day. If you live in the US and Gamergate isn't familiar to you, you're missing critical history to understanding US fascism. I'm not joking even a little bit here, you will understand modern United States fascism so much better if you are familiar with Gamergate.

[cumaeansibyl]

Not an exaggeration. Gamergate led directly to the redpill/incel movement, which white supremacists exploited and colonized. Not to say that most of the white men in those movements weren't already racist to some extent, but that wasn't an active part of their politics until white supremacist recruiters came along and convinced them that the women ruining their videogames were part of the conspiracy to destroy the white race.

That's a very brief summary but you can go back step by step over the past decade and see how they did it.

Today I wanted to talk about Kyle Bassinga. Kyle was a 21 year old man from Georgia, whose family described him as "a kind, thoughtful, and smart young man who loved nature, music, and the people around him". Kyle Bassinga was killed on February 18th 2026, just ten days after his birthday. He was found hanging from a tree in a park.

The police ruled it a suicide. The family and local community demanded an investigation. The police refused to change their ruling.

I know this website it too white for this to really go anywhere, but an understanding of the present reality of white supremacy in the United States is just so important to transfeminism here. Lynchings never stopped, white supremacy never went away, you just stopped looking.

[storyweavingspider]

Juliana Nzita, A 16 year old Black girl, was just found hanging from a tree on church grounds in Charlotte, NC. Police have ruled it a suicide, despite hanging ourselves from trees being like the one communally agreed way Black folks ain’t killing ourselves.

Every time I go on Twitter or Facebook I learn about another recent lynching or missing Black person going mostly unreported. Half the reason I keep an active account on either of those sites is because they’re the only place I can find out about the violence happening to Black and Trans people reasonably quickly.

But I do need y’all to know that Black folks are currently, actively, being disappeared and lynched—if they even find our bodies. Black girls are and have been more often stolen into human trafficking, especially if they’re immigrants, but I’ve been seeing new news of probable lynchings every other day. Shit is worse than you think it is right now, tumblr just too white of a site to care lol

[nimblermortal]

Juliana Nzita's family has a GoFundMe*. I have not seen any statements from her family or the police department. The news sources reporting her case are more reactive than those reporting Kyle Bassinga's.

Kyle Bassinga's family has asked for space and privacy - this was the most recent article I could find on the subject. They have "praised investigators and urged the public to avoid speculation." The officials in question have acknowledged the history involved, which might be why the family called them "professional, transparent, and diligent" and said that everyone should rely on official updates.

*I could not quickly find Bueia Umba online; the best I can offer as verification is that the Union Star - a source I am unfamiliar with - cited the GoFundMe.

Note I am not especially good at research and my inability to find things does not mean they do not exist.

trying something new this year called the Mosquito Bucket Challenge!

it's an initiative being pushed by Homegrown National Park as an alternative to mosquito spraying and pesticides

the key concept is intentionally attracting mosquitos to buckets with standing water, but adding mosquito dunks to prevent them from successfully reproducing

mosquito dunks are a product containing a bacteria called Bti, which prevents larvae from developing into adult mosquitos

Bti does not affect most other animals/insects, and is thus safe for wildlife and pollinators! you can find mosquito dunks easily online or at home improvement stores

so basically, you fill the bucket up with organic material like leaves, add water and a quarter of a mosquito dunk once a month....and that's about it! you also use a wire cover or a "rescue stick" to prevent other creatures from falling into the bucket and not being able to climb out

Homegrown National Park is encouraging people to decorate their buckets to help spread the word, but i am lazy so Lowe's logo and a tumblr post it is

we can talk about the important role mosquitos play in ecosystems, but the reality is that many people won't tolerate high numbers of mosquitos in their yards. this is an easy and low-cost alternative to much more harmful control methods – a bucket, mosquito dunks and some chicken wire cost me a total of about $20!

you can read more about the Mosquito Bucket Challenge here! please consider reblogging or making a bucket this year 🐝

[meangirlnurse]

little update on this now that it's the end of May!

every year around spring, being outside becomes intolerable because of the mosquitos, which also get into my house when i take my dogs out

so i'm REALLY excited to say that my outdoor spaces are actually usable this year! i think i've been bitten by one mosquito all season and i'm outside gardening pretty much every day 🙌

highly recommend giving mosquito buckets a shot!!!!!
