Of course they don’t like Milly Alcock’s Supergirl. She’s a grown ass woman with zero love interests who spends the movie saving her dog, casually dismantling a sex trafficking ring while she’s at it, and preaching the importance of being good, not nice or smiley or cheerful but good. I for one adored the movie and I really hope I’ll get to see more of Alcock’s Supergirl she’s now my favorite iteration of her and I love her so dearly.

So the subplot of Holes is that Kate Barlow deals with the politically-sanctioned execution of her black boyfriend—who unlawfully kissed a white woman who was in love with him!!!—by becoming a serial killer who targets racist/sexist white dudes who harassed her, were rejected, then went after her boyfriend as revenge from the depths of the “friend zone”.

Go off Louis Sachar, let em know!

[anzozi-everywhere]

Don’t forget the main plot was a damning satire of the brokenness and inherent racism of the American justice and prison systems! Louis Sachar does not fuck about

[galaxianbitch]

It always fuck me up that older people don’t understand how this story is as essential to most american children as Gone with the Wind or Mary Poppins was.

[angrynebula]

unironically, this is one of the best books/movies for young people that exists

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

Kissing Kate Did Nothing Wrong

[aimmyarrowshigh]

And the technical writing of Holes is perfect. Like, it’s one of the most technically-perfect books ever written. Basically any plotting or pacing or characterization issue you’re having, read Holes and really study how Sachar did it. THE LIZARDS! THE LIZARDS.

the twisty prophecies! the lizards! the lipstick! the humor! this book doesn’t play. a true classic.

and! in a twist, it’s actually the most accurate depiction of archaeology across pretty much all media!

In honor of Disability Pride Month:

I am not "differently abled".

I do not have a "superpower".

I am disabled and I have disabilities, and neither is a bad word.

fundamentally do not understand WHY people post ai slop. If it's not real, nobody made it up, and it communicates nothing, what's the point? If it blows up and gets millions of 'interactions' —that's the only angle that even remotely makes sense to me. It sucks ass, but I understand the profit motive. What gets me is the aunties and nobodies posting ai slop that will never go viral. What is the point?! It's like looking into a black hole. It's less than nothing, because nothing would be peaceful. It's noise that means absolutely nothing except 'look.' Look at what? Not at you. Not at anything real. So why?!

[imsobadatnicknames2]

I know I already made a post to this effect but it's so baffling to me when someone defends the fact that headphone jacks are slowly but surely getting phased out by smartphone manufacturers with some variations of "wireless headphones are more convenient anyway" bc like. If we're talking about convenience what I like about wired headphones is that they conveniently have a single plug that makes the same damn pair of headphones universally compatible with every single audio-output-capable device I own, from my phone and my computer to my fucking gameboy and my casette player, it doesn't get any more convenient than that.

[fuglyjeans]

Have you heard about Bluetooth it's legal now

[imsobadatnicknames2]

Yeah ofc lemme just pair my bluetooth headphones to my gameboy advance and my goddamn casette player why didn't I think of that

[ar-gemlad]

Oh, you can borrow my Bluetooth headphones. Yeah, just turn them on then um, hold it in the up position whilst pressing the volume button? I think. No, you have to turn them off and try again; they've connected to my phone. Oh, maybe if I turn Bluetooth off on my phone and you turn the headphones on again. That should put them in pairing mode. Then you need to use your Bluetooth menu and select NEOGN357BEBCJ499SNFJ. Yeah, that's the name of the device. Just remember to unpair them again when you're done. No, I don't know how to do that; you should know - it's your phone.

[brinnanza]

also you DON'T HAVE TO FUCKING CHARGE THEM
