Nobody is obligated to write femslash as "activism." Actual feminism doesn't involve policing what women choose to create in their leisure time. That is actual misogyny.

Wrong writing femslash is actually mandatory and the only way society can progress forward

I never guessed that in my adulthood, I’d be relating to Calvin’s parents as much as I do in this comic.

Because damn … Calvin’s dad was so right.

This is part of an arc where their house got broken into and they have to deal with the ensuing fallout.

Calvin and Hobbes was some real shit, my dude.

[slavetomyheadcanon]

Reading Calvin and Hobbes as an adult is a VERY different experience than reading it as a kid.

[randomslasher]

I always liked this arc because they were out of town when the house was robbed (I think at a wedding?) but Calvin forgot Hobbes. So when they get home and realize they’ve been robbed, Calvin is super scared Hobbes might’ve been stolen. For some reason the last panel when the parents are happy that Calvin has his buddy again just always moved me.

The book is 1984, which is neither. It's anti-authoritarian, which tells you a lot.

I hate that the stock response for "I'm lonely/I feel undervalued by my loved ones/I want a romantic partner" is "well do you value YOURSELF? You need to learn to enjoy being alone!" as if lonely people aren't very intimately familiar with being alone. Self esteem and love are important but they're not substitutes for companionship or friendship or romance and pretending that loneliness is a personal failure that can be fixed by self-improvement feels not only delusional but pretty cruel

The thing about fascists is that they will not only forgive but actively celebrate their leaders for doing any heinous thing; but the moment that one of their leaders appears weak, they will drop him like a hot potato.

Richard Spencer was a big deal in far right circles right up until he got publicly punched in the face and now he’s nobody. Rush Limbaugh broke down crying on his radio show in the face of his impending death from cancer and he got to spend his last days being called a pussy by people who wouldn’t have careers without him. And all of the people who spent the last 15 years scrawling the URL for InfoWars on every surface are mysteriously MIA now that Alex Jones looks like a fucking clown.

These people will absolutely turn on each other the moment they catch the slightest whiff of blood in the water, so by all means, make them bleed.

we were discussing wills and inheritances in the breakroom today and one of the boys brought up that he heard if you hate someone in your family, you’re supposed to leave them something, literally anything, even if it’s just like 1 penny, so that they can’t sue and say you just forgot them, and one of the other boys said why wouldn’t you just say like “I specifically do not leave anything to this person” and one of the girls piped up “No, leave them 1 penny, it’s a bigger fuck you” and then she paused and goes “No wait, tell them that you leave them everything in the box you’ve buried in the woods and they have to go find it and dig it up and then they can have everything in it, but it’s just 1 penny” and because I am a writer, and thinking up wild things to have happen is part of the writing job description, I (without looking up from my computer where I was currently writing a story) said “or a bomb. I mean, you hate them right” and i looked up and everyone was looking at me and the girl (who FYI is a horror movie enthusiast and I had figured on appreciating the joke) goes “well. I mean, what are they going to do, arrest me? I’m dead.” and I wish I could bottle the looks on the boys’ faces.

When I worked full time as a genealogist a colleague showed me a will that said they left enough rope for their son in law to hang himself and nothing else.

If you have a senior to check on ask them to "borrow" something small so they think they're helping you.

My mom (72) recently downsized and moved close enough to me that checking on her in person regularly is not really out of my way, but when I was obvious about it she wouldn’t let me “stop-by” because she was, “fine”.

Well, one day I actually needed some aluminum foil so I called and asked if I could borrow enough to cover a baking tin because I didn’t want to run to the store. She said sure, but when I got to her house she needed furniture moved, a wasp nest removed, and her coffee pot fixed. After I got the foil I mentioned each thing cautiously and she let me take care of them for her. So next weekend I’ll need a cup of rice and check on her again.

Just learned that the NYPD apparently edited their own fucking Wikipedia page to make themselves look better 😀

ACAB 🐷🖕🥰

[president-queef]

Bruh moment

[pixelartpeach]

If you look at the edit history, this is an ongoing fight, and the NYPD is anonymous 90% of the time:

For people new to the Wikipedia edit scene (like me), the red numbers are how many characters were removed, and the green are how many added.
