i get rly emotional abt onimais existence whenever i start thinking abt it too hard because like. its just so kind. its one of the kindest things ive ever seen put to print and screen, and the fact that it exists is just so... imagine being an egg out there yknow? imagine being in mahiros shoes and finding onimai. imagine learning, through something as tender and beautiful as onimai, that there exists not just girls like you, but other girls who are more than willing to help you grow into your new identity and love yourself for the first time.

imagine seeing yourself for the first time through mahiro, one of the cutest, most lovable girls ever made. she too had to struggle to feel out her girlhood - its scary, yknow? changes that big, even when you want it - and while this lead to situations that were embarrassing or scary, shes never someone to ridicule. shes learning, yknow? we all make mistakes. when she accidentally stumbles into old habits, or shyly tries out new ones, she's never reprimanded or laughed at. and on top of that, it provides that gentle wish fulfillment of a sister who's always loved you walking you through your transition and loving you still throughout. it provides that gentle reassurance that youre always allowed to be an adorable little girl, even if youve supposedly chronologically passed your childhood already. that one didnt count, you know? it wasnt fully yours. you get to be a little girl now. its so kind. its just so kind...

The article above goes over the guidelines one by one, their effects, and keeps the focus on the sex workers these guidelines were made to target. Written by myself, a sex worker who has used Kickstarter to fund multiple projects. Please share!

i wish people would stop romanticizing not eating breakfast and not getting enough sleep and being dependent on coffee to function and always being in a bad mood and treating yourself poorly because that behavior is very unhealthy for you

He’s right.

Botswana officially erases ban on same-sex intimacy

Local LGBTIQ+ organisation LEGABIBO welcomed the government’s move, describing it as “a necessary and long-overdue step toward restoring dignity and aligning our legal framework with constitutional values of equality and human rights.” The group said the change sends “a clear message that LGBTIQ+ persons are not criminals, and that their lives and relationships deserve protection, not punishment.” LEGABIBO noted that the colonial-era provisions had long cast a shadow over the lives of LGBTIQ+ people in the country.

Important rules for the "age verification" era of the internet that we're living in:

1. Do not do age verification.

2. If you have to do age verification, cheat. Do not under any circumstances give them your real ID.

[foone]

having looked into tumblr's age verification closer (thanks, proxies), lemme add:

3. if you do tumblr's age verification, do the webcam-face version. It doesn't send the image back to them (it "just" sends the metadata, which may still be enough to uniquely identify you), but that's way better than showing them your ID (especially since you have to do it on a phone. Do things on desktop, not on phones: you'll be more secure)

this bastard is gogengo from pokemon, and its story is actually quite interesting. the original design pitch was not greenlit due to looking 100% identical to god: the universal creator let game freak know of his disapproval through a thumbs-down reaction in the discord server. gobengo was very nearly removed from the game to avoid a lengthy legal battle against the divine entity, but game fuck was able to make godongo legally distinct by giving it a fuckass belt. this sfory is so inspirational. you must be feeling very inspired.

Have you guys seen that letter Stalin wrote because he was embarrassed that Tsaritsyn was named renamed Stalingrad after him it's my favorite thing ever it's so fucking funny

[stalinita-deactivated20260530]

"With communist greetings" 😭😭 oh my God

"call it Miningrad or something else" fuckkk this is too good

The entirety of number 4. I love him I'm crying

MY FAVORITE PART: "All this creates an awkward situation for you, and especially for me"

I meant being renamed, not named renamed by the way 😭

llms have been a clear positive for my personal quality of life especially recently

i really wish that discourse around them was at least to the point where if people said they've done nothing good, in an absolute sense, you expect them to get shot down

though maybe im just tiltposting about something true but tangential because im frustrated i don't talk about that to people much

[dateamonster]

tbh im not entirely immune to a villain with a tragic backstory but i do think villain origins are a lot more interesting when the focus is less "here is the original sin, the first big bad thing that happened to them that made them who they are" and more "here is the first time a person who maybe otherwise felt powerless in their life realized that they could hurt someone and get away with it"

the most dangerous man alive sat across from an orphaned girl and offered her a knife.

yeah we're putting you in the machine, sorry. yeah it sucks out your soul and puts it into a doll body. it's 140cm tall and you can't talk but you have really cute doll joints. most of the dolls you'll see have genitals but you won't because i dont feel like giving you them, you can watch all the other dolls have sex and you can try to rub the flat stuff down there but it won't do anything. the closest you can get to cumming is snuggling your owner, which is me, and you'll get addicted to it really fast because of it. yeah no you still cant talk to express your displeasure at it but you can grab at me longingly and look up at me with your big adorable doll eyes but it'll just make me want to snuggle you, which again you'll be ok with. also your human body will still be doing stuff, it just won't be ensouled. when you look at it you won't recognize it. you'll probably lose your memories of being human, anyway. sorry. it has to be done.

"The Feds Want to Make It Illegal to Even Possess an Anarchist Zine"

"Daniel Sanchez is facing federal charges for what free speech advocates say is a clear attack on the First Amendment."

The Feds Want to Make It Illegal to Even Possess an Anarchist Zine

Daniel Sanchez is facing federal charges for what free speech advocates say is a clear attack on the First Amendment.

[nonbinary-jakey]

a follow-up article now that the trial has concluded

What does [Daniel's conviction] mean? * the physical act of moving literature (transporting a box from one house to another, or potentially from a print shop to a post office) can be charged as "concealing evidence" if the government claims you knew an investigation was underway or imminent. * Normal distribution activities (shipping, relocating stock) could be reinterpreted as "flight of evidence" if law enforcement decides the materials are linked to a crime. * "Protected Speech" Can Be Reclassified as "Contraband": * The zines in the box included crimethinc, anarchist library, little black cart, and titles from many more distributors. is there a complete list? * Prosecutors successfully argued that because the zines contained the same ideas as the "Antifa terrorist enterprise" (per the government's theory), the zines themselves became "instrumentalities of a crime" This bypasses First Amendment protections by treating the published anarchist texts as "tools" of terrorism rather than speech.

Holy shit. More people need to read this

Seattle Central College is trying to close the only public wood tech college in the state of Washington, which is one of if not the only avenue into woodworking trades for people who usually aren't hired to be trained on-site: queer, trans, neurodivergent and disabled students, and women. Which is exactly what most of the students in the program are.

The reason according to the college is that they want to sell the building to fix the school's budget; they also claim the wood tech college has a severe budget deficit, but they've failed to follow through on any promises to try to fix that (including hiring a permanent dean, so the school has someone to advocate for them... which they haven't had in at least a decade).

The reason according to some students & staff is that Seattle College's VP has a grudge against the lead carpentry instructor & has been trying to get her program shut down for years to get rid of her.

Students are trying to make some noise about it, in hopes that the college backs down and they can work towards the long-term fixes Seattle College keeps failing to follow through on.

Why the future of a popular Seattle carpentry program is under threat

The future is unclear for one of the Puget Sound region’s only comprehensive training programs for carpentry and boatbuilding.

If you can sign this little petition & share this around, it'd help the school out a ton!

It shows the school they're going to get pushback, which has changed their mind about this in the past.

It would be really cool if we could help get this to 1k!

There are less than 200 students at the wood tech college, so makes a really big impact when anyone else signs and shows that people outside of just students really care about this.

There were like 230 signatures when I first posted this- I'm really grateful to everyone who's already helped out. It means a lot!
