I can’t believe Trump’s statement was literally

“You’re right that there’s fraud and these people are evil, but go home.”

That’s not going to make anyone go home

Here’s a link to the video if you want to watch it: https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1346928882595885058

If you were arrested for protesting in Chicago, Indianapolis, or Louisville, the law firm of Derrick Morgan Jr, Esq will represent you pro bono

prridot

Lyrics:

I’ve tried, tried, tried And I’ve tried even more I’ve Cried, Cried, Cried And I can’t recall what for I’ve pressed, I’ve pushed, I’ve yelled, I’ve begged In hope of some success But the inevitable fact is that It never will impress

I’ve no more fucks to give, My fucks have runneth dry, I’ve tried to go fuck shopping But there’s no fucks left to buy I’ve no more fucks to give, Though more fucks I’ve tried to get, I’m over my fuck budget and I’m now in fucking debt

I strive, strive, strive To get everything done I’ve played by all the rules But I’ve very rarely won, I’ve smiled, I’ve charmed, I’ve wooed I’ve laughed, Alas to no avail I’ve run round like a moron, To unequivocally fail!

I’ve no more fucks to give, My fuck fuse has just blown, I’ve been hunting for my fucks all day, But they’ve upped and fucked off home, I’ve no more fucks to give, My fuck rations are depleted, I’ve rallied my fuck army but It’s been fucking defeated!

The effort has just not been worth The time or the expense I’ve exhausted all my energy For minimal recompense The complete lack of acknowledgement Has now begun to gall And I’ve come to realise that I Don’t give a fuck at all!

I’ve no more fucks to give, My fucks have flown away, My fucks are now so fucked off They’ve refused to fucking stay! I’ve no more fucks to give, My fucks have gone insane They’ve come back round and passed me While they’re fucking off again!

I’ve no more fucks to give, My fucks have all dissolved, I’ve planned many projects But my fucks won’t be involved! I’ve no more fucks to give, My fucks have all been spent, They’ve fucked off from the building And I don’t know where they went!

I’ve no more fucks to give, I’ve no more fucks to give, I’ve no more fucks, I’ve no more fucks, I’ve no more fucks to give!

Good news folks it’s on Spotify!!!

Vesemir named Geralt.

So either, all Witcher initiates are renamed to separate their Witcher life from their previous life, Vesemir renames (or named) Geralt for unknown reasons, or Geralt didn’t have a name.

Geralt knew Visenna as both Ma and Visenna. Geralt was left to Vesemir, and Visenna did not name Geralt. Geralt is not from Rivia, as Witcher’s are instructed to take place names to be more trustworthy.

What if Geralt was Vesemirs’ Surprise Child, and Vesemir claimed him to train him as a Witcher?

#the witcher #vesemir #geralt z rivii #we could also talk about how vesemir took geralts humanity or elvenhood and his name and was willing to train boys when only 3/10 survived

Okay but why does Jaskier speak fluent Elder if Ciri doesn’t? Sure Jaskier is educated but you’d think a literal princess would be taught Elder as a matter of course

Was walking through my mom's house to borrow my dad's drill when I saw my 11yo niece watching me with an odd expression.

"You wanna help me build the catio?"

Her eyes lit up, then she looked disappointed. "But I'm a girl..."

I rolled my eyes. "Do I look like I care?"

That must have been the right response because she jumped up and chattered excitedly as I showed her how to use a tape measure, a drill, etc. We spent all day building and she had a brilliant smile the whole time. After the tenth declaration of this being the best day in her life, I said,

"Gotta love that sweet sweet serotonin!"

She immediately started giggling, "What does that meeeeaan??"

Anyway, she had an amazing time building with me and acted like I had given her a solstice gift when I said she could paint it and that I'd take her to the hardware store to pick out hardware. She's never been to a hardware store before and I love being the weird knowledgeable uncle who has weird pets always keeps fruit and pistachios in the house.

Update: While I was at the store I found a 53 piece around the house tool kit in bright purple, so of course I bought it for her. Her face when I gave it to her was priceless and she actually gasped. She's going to "make all the stuff"

Are we going to talk about the “but I’m a girl.”? Where did she get that? Did someone teach her that? Who is it? I’m ready to kill for that cutie.

thededfa

She learned it from her dead father

I'm just gonna assume you killed him for his blatant sexism

I was across state lines and in the presence of three witnesses at the time of his death. I have receipts timestamped. My alibi is solid.

tired: the Grail romances, the Divine Comedy, and most of Shakespeare technically qualify as fanfiction

wired: none of these things are fanfiction because fanfiction is the act of telling stories that legally belong to someone else, which can only exist a society sick enough to decide every story has one (1) owner and lock its entire culture behind glass walls that say “look but don’t touch.”

people have always touched. fanfiction is when you touch anyway. the existence of the anyway is inherent in the definition, and the ways people do it are different when it’s illegitimized, dubiously legal, and forced semi-underground. fanfiction is the subculture that emerged from copyright law’s enclosure of culture, which makes it the weird sibling rather than the superset of other shared storytelling traditions.

yes and no.

from a literary-criticism perspective, the above examples absolutely do qualify as fanfiction, defined as retelling of existing stories—or rather, chicken-or-egg questions aside, fanfiction qualifies as part of the longstanding storytelling traditions that have always existed and are commonly accepted as being valid literature, i.e. less “Shakespeare qualifies as fanfiction” and more “fanfiction is as legitimate as Shakespeare.”

“fanfiction” in its modern construct was something we had to invent or reinvent due to copyright structures having overgrown their purpose to imprison stories from the retelling and transformative traditions that have been accepted as legitimate storytelling since stories existed. thus it does qualify, from a transformative-works perspective, as a different subset of transformative works than Shakespeare, with the subversive qualities mentioned above.

notably, Shakespeare and Dante got to tell their stories commercially, without receiving a cease-and-desist notice from the lawyers of, say, the Council of Nicea or Her Royal Highness Cleopatra VII Philopator. fanfiction still doesn’t, and even that is not always enough protection.

Have any other epileptics reduced their medication and then started having headaches, and slight muscles tremors?

I found a company called “Frantic Meerkat” who makes journals whose sole purpose is to call me out

This is by the Mincing Mockingbird guy (of “I’d sell you to satan for one corn chip” and “The risk I took was calculated, but man, am I bad at math” fame) and you can buy them here

Fun fact, sesame street was created to fill the gap in education for children whose families could not afford to send them to preschool. Sesame street taught basic math and phonics as well as interpersonal skills so that children below the poverty line weren’t starting elementary school behind their more privileged classmates.

Here sesame street is trying to fill a gap where supportive adults should be. Where there should be a teacher or a family member or a counselor to help, for whatever reason, there isn’t, so Sesame Street is stepping in.

This breed of person has always hated Sesame Street. They hated it for showing black and white children playing together. They hated it for giving children of color the head start that rich white families were paying for. They hated it for Bert and Ernie for showing two MEN who LIVED TOGETHER, for the married black nurse who lived on sesame street when it was first released, and for them explaining death. I feel like there was a pregnancy at some point in its early days and they would have REALLY hated that.

These days they don’t (usually) say “I’m not letting my kid watch anything with black kids in it” but they sure throw a tantrum in the youtube comments when Sesame Street DARES to show an autistic girl playing with non-autistic children and being treated like shes anyone else. They lose their shit when Sesame Street has to explain incarceration to 5 year olds. And the muppet in south africa with HIV? Hoo boy.

They hate everything Sesame Street stands for and tries to provide. They always have. We just have to ignore them and keep supporting the show. Or tell them to shut the fuck up and keep supporting the show. Either way Sesame Street will outlive them.
