boring take from real 21st century idiots: bdsm is bad because it's basically torture

interesting take from a fictional 14th century monk: torture is bad because it's basically sex

Shoutout to the nun who had other nuns tie her up and pour hot wax on her as she confessed her sins

[amorphousgenderlesscryptid]

I'm sure that's true, but something tells me googling "nun tied up by other nuns" "hot wax" "confessing sins" will likely get what you might call rather un-academic results

the thing about art is that sometimes you'll be moved to tears by stuff that is not very good

There's always something so painful about watching a pretty good actor fighting for their life to give a decent performance of an absolutely dogshit script. Putting their whole heart soul and pussy into delivering the stupidest lines you've heard in your life. My god. We have to get them out of there

[girlfailure-poetics]

repeatedly doing (trans)misogynistic microaggressions at me will definitely make me trust that you know fuck all about feminism

[girlfailure-poetics]

*after repeatedly microaggressing a woman* heh she’s angry while I’m calm. That means I win

The thing about the Witch Hat Atelier world is that the magic system sounds great until you realize it's essentially programming and that sobers you up immediately. Sure, maybe you reach the level of skill needed to draw perfect curves, straight lines, and circles without looking down, but after that you still need to be able to logic out which combination of sigils will actually give you the desired effect, and if you misplace a single line it all goes to shit. Add to that the inclusion of effect-altering inks and you start to understand why Olruggio is Like That.

Hey everyone, looks like the “cat summoned for jury duty” was ai generated - even has the ai symbol at the top. Thanks for the heads up, @cannot-all-throw-inkpots . My apologies- I did not realize when I shared it.

[theriu]

Aww dangit. Guess that makes sense, but it was so believable because I can 100% see that kind of goofup happening

[theriu]

Some positive news: There really WAS a cat summoned for jury duty back in 2010. Turns out the error was quickly corrected and the cat did NOT actually have to travel to the courthouse. But at least we can enjoy the fact that a papereork glitch did once try to give a cat jury duty XD

That's it. This completely kills election integrity in The United States. I don't know if this makes us a dictatorship now, but it sure feels like it does. Unless I'm misunderstanding this.

The Supreme Court recently voted to allow the President to fire commissioners of independent agencies. Trump then turns around and fires all of the members of the Election Assistance Commission. Now, the EAC can't function until new commissioners get appointed.

The Election Assistance Commission is the agency that accredits our voting systems, and maintain our mail-in-voting requirements. The administration is likely going to either leave the Commission unstaffed, or pack the seats with loyalists.

They just keep chip chip chipping away at it. I don't think they realize that it's load bearing.

From Reuters:

The 2002 law states the president can appoint replacements to the commission, but it is unclear how Trump will move ahead with the commission.

Senator Mark Warner, a Virginia Democrat, said ⁠in a ​Thursday social media post the terminations should "concern every American, regardless of party."

"Removing every remaining ​commissioner just months before the 2026 midterm elections is an extraordinary step that demands an immediate explanation from the administration and raises profound concerns about political interference in the ​institutions that support our elections," Warner said. (x)

librarians are fun because you'll go and ask for a book no one has read for one william years and they'll be like 'it's not on the system but the neighboring system's neighboring system's neighboring system's uncle's cousin's baby's laboratory professor's favorite crystal provider's alma mater has a copy'
