Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.

It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.

It's rude.

I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.

[manuciruja]

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

[smadsel]

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

[smadsel]

that’s not the whole flag, now is it

[manuciruja]

hey staff what the fuck

[villainessbian]

hey staff don't you think you're being too on-the-nose

[shrodingers-catgirl]

HEY STAFF DONT YOU THINK YOU'RE BEING TOO ON-THE-NOSE

[trans-sapphic-mess]

If that trans girl gets super weirdly apologetic, like is borderline apologizing for breathing or is apologizing for things that are basically nothing/happened forever ago, whatever you do, do not leave her alone. Chances are it's one of two things, and neither of them are good; she's either bordering on a breakdown and thinks basically everything she does is wrong, or is past that point and desperately wants to make sure no one's angry at her before she hurts herself/takes her own life. You might think it's weird, you might get tired of it and want to push her away, but for the love of god do not do that. Her apologizing every 0.5 seconds is because she's been taught not to value her own emotions, but they're overpowering her and she doesn't know what to do other than apologize like her life depends on it. Her life might not depend on it, but it very well could depend on how you respond to her heart's most desperate cries for help

A fun bonus fact for you: those No Longer Buyable DVDs?

They're the ONLY surviving NONDAMAGED form of the show. In the late 90s, the masters from which the show is printed were damaged with a red-pink hazy filter.

So. Good luck buying them even if you find them. They're some of the most valuable collector's items in the entire franchise.

Without piracy, there would be NO UNDAMAGED COPIES OF SAILOR MOON AVAILABLE TO ANYONE ANYWHERE, PERIOD.

Piracy Is Preservation.

"this suicidal person is so stupid for believing nobody will miss them. i remember people i haven't talked to in years lol"

ok but are you present in their life enough for them to realize that?

[beef-estrogenoff-deactivated-de]

we can all say after the fact that we cared for our friend who committed or disappeared or whatever. we can even mean it when we say it. we can think about them. but did we ever act on it? did we ever even make them feel like we were there? "nobody would care if i disappeared" is not a literal phrase. of course they know that people would care. what the phrase conveys is a deep sense of alienation that can't be mended by implying stupidity on their part.

One of the posts I made right before my suicide attempt in 2022 was “everyone always turns out to be friends with the person who just killed themself” and I was referring in part to this exact phenomenon,

which was followed with basically everyone I knew including my roommates waiting until the entire town thought I was already dead to say or do anything in support of me at all.

Let people know you care about them

Yes, investigation claimed at least 1,200 detainees 'dropped off the grid' from 'Alligator Alcatraz'

The claim is not new — the Miami Herald published its findings in summer 2025.

source for the congresswoman thing as well, because i hadn't heard about that:

Rep. LaMonica McIver Faces 17 Years in Prison Over ICE Jail Inspection

The Trump administration has repeatedly attempted to restrict or thwart congressmembers’ access to ICE jails.

"really disturbing how little people are reacting to the human trafficking concentration camps"

As modern netizens, we live in an attention economy that has long since proven that its political power is limited. Attention drives trends, opinions, and culture but not political or militant organizing, elite power structures etc. This is why the Epstein files can be released without threatening the powerful. What the fuck is a poor person with a cell phone gonna do to a billionaire on a jet?

In the last ten years, Americans have reacted to Trumps first election, war in Ukraine, genocide in Gaza, covid, trumps second election, the epstein files, ice. How many of these were prevented as a result of the reactions? For that matter, do you really think people who "didn't know" in Nazi Germany would have liberated the camps, ever?

This is a twofold reality. First, you can't react to everything, and trying will just make you tired and unfocused. Second, extreme abuses of power typically take place under circumstances when that power can't be easily contested.

To get rid of elite human trafficking or a blank check government paramilitary organization, you're going to need more than people's reactions. You need the police, the national guard, and ICE to agree to help you or at least stay out of your way. You need a cultural consensus that we're ready to pay the cost of upending law and order. In other words, you need social animals that long for security to become comfortable with change really really fast.

Everything in the world can't be changed by wishing it were so. Change will happen at the speed that is possible, not the speed that is best for everyone.

It’s so normalized, they teach it to us from birth. Some people live their entire lives never seeing an issue with the images above.

It’s actually a pretty good highlight of how generally people don’t notice they’re being racist, since the diversity in the various characters depicted leads me to believe they thought they were including everyone.

Until Salem is reinstated or remakes I figured I'd put up some links of his with his permission, spread these around to help support this ray of bunshine.

[feyd-rautha-apologist]

I've been seeing people talk about the setting the trans community back x years thing nonstop on twitter, what even was the original context here?

[daughter-of-sapph0]

people say that being open about certain kinks or being cringe or even just demanding basic respect is "losing the support of allies" by "causing them to think twice about supporting us" or whatever.

its a lie about respectability politics, the belief that we need to change who we are to be more appealing and desirable to the oppressive class.

"setting the community back x years" is the common phrase they use, claiming that a few people online are singlehandedly undoing all the progress people have made to helping trans people be more accepted.

but that's untrue. ten years ago, trans people were MORE accepted than we are now. ten years ago was before trump, before the rise of massive sweeping transphobic legislation, before fear mongering and scapegoatting and cries about bathrooms and sports. it was just after gay marriage was legalized, most people didn't care, many were openly supportive. it was far from perfect, believe me. but i can tell you as someone who was openly queer back then, it was a lot easier when people didn't immediately think of the politicians calling for my death when they saw me.

and i cannot stress this enough, the shift towards a more hostile view on trans women is NOT the fault of any individual trans people. no, we didn't slide into fascism because someone on twitter was rude to jkr, or because a tumblr user has a mommy kink. the overwhelming hatred of trans women is due solely to the rise of fascism, and the inaction of the opposing party to do anything about it. every year, both usamerican parties shift closer and closer to the right, and the "trans debate" has been one of many hot topics where the middle ground compromise from ten years ago has become the new "radical left woke dei mind virus infecting your white kids and destroying america"

Still cis, tho~

[ignited-ember666]

Y'know while it does sorta suck to see pjackk get nuked, where's this uproar for trans women? You'll yell and scream and mourn when a "Tumblr legend" or whatever the fuck gets termed but not when we get termed despite it happening to us on a daily fucking basis?

[ignited-ember666]

I forgot this is the piss on the poor website

[iwanttoliveinyourfloorboards]

The other additional factor to this, however, is that I believe that Pjackk *was* directly run by one or several trans women (although I admittedly don’t know all of the direct details per se). There are obviously many different explanations for why the account might have been nuked, but, whether it be because Pjackk was the sideblog of a trans woman who got taken down, or even just because staff mods became aware of the fact that trans women had been running the account and so decided to take it down based on that, it’s very likely that pjackk was literally and unironically a victim of transmisogyny also.

There is additionally something to be said about how likely it is that, if most people were aware that pjackk was run by trans women or it was explicitly so, that the account never would have gotten as popular (or as mourned as it is now) in the first place, and would have just joined the larger background noise to most people of my fellow sisters getting termed on the daily that TME’s can’t even be bothered to care or make any noise about.

Fuck this site.
