some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.
I couldn't remember the word "doorknob" ten minutes ago.

hate when u agree with the sentiment of a post but not the condescending tone . Why dont we do a cool prank that's called being kind for no reason and speaking respectfully Even on the internet
i feel like "feminist" anti-kink sentiment is very tail-wagging-the-dog. like male doms playing out bdsm scenes of abuse are not oppressing their female subs that's acting. you're mad at acting. you're those aliens from galaxy quest. same with fearmongering about "booktok". however an eroticized version of patriarchal dynamics being a popular kink DOES speak to the pervasiveness of sexism, bc eroticizing the oppression is a way of coping with living under it. it's women creating a fantasy world where men being menacing to them is sexy and not scary like it is irl, or where it is still scary but in the fun way like a horror movie bc you can tap out at any time by using a safe word or putting the book down. acting like this sort of kink is oppressing women is like if you assumed the thermometer controlled the weather outside. it might be depressing to look at the thermometer and see the impact of climate change, but it's not the thermometer's fault
"eroticizing the oppression is a way of coping with living under it"
say it louder for the people in the back
im gonna kill the internet
chappell roan getting flashed at her own concert and people are losing their minds saying its harassment she did not seem upset stfu, get a hobbie, go crochet, go outside, go visit your parents.
"the rest of the crowd didn't consent to being flashed." im sure 99% of the crowd was looking a chappell not at a random bitch showing their tits
✨✨✨purity culture ✨✨✨
i hope someone flashes me some tits someday
not to sound like a christian facebook mom but some of yall need to have grace in your hearts for the people in your lives or the people you pass once on the road and never see again like you literally need to stop assuming the worst of everyone and their intentions it is poisoning your brain. you can be careful and responsible without being a miserable person. it is possible i promise
"I'm no better than a man!" Men being horny for women is also morally neutral. Hope this helps.
Men being horny for women isn't inherently about power though. Like this is so odd. OP is completely correct and y'all should really acknowledge that yes, straight men being horny for women IS in fact morally neutral
Mens attraction being inherently predatory and destructive and needing to be restrained is, in fact, part of evangelical ideology, and i think a number of people have unrecognised evangelical beliefs, left over from their youth or gained from societal permeation of whatever. And maybe they should recognise and critically examine those beliefs. And think a bit about where they got them from, instead of thinking up feminist justifications for them.
"Mens attraction being inherently predatory" is an excuse to pretend men are mindless beasts who aren't in control of their own actions, which by extension also means they cannot be blamed for said actions.
It's "Boys will be boys" taken to the extreme.
It's the attitude that leads to bullshit like blaming rape victims for the way they were dressed.
It's not feminism, it's the exact opposite, it's a fucking scapegoat for the people these "radical feminists" claim to hate.
people should be allowed to have low ambition, and also be able to feed a family on the salary of a cashier at a convenience store.
not to be a number nerd on main but 2025 (45^2) will be the only square year most of us ever experience. the last one was 1936 and the next one will be 2116
i very much will be a number nerd on main and the 27th of September will be extra special...
okay eva just wanted to say THIS IS SO COOL???
Be yourself so ppl looking for u can find u
I just think "data center water usage should be federally regulated," while less catchy and less emotionally charged, is a stronger political stance than "fuck AI." Targets the systemic flaw rather than a product, you know?
AGREE But let's take it farther:
Data centres shouldn't be allowed in areas that experience drought or are Koppen classification B category (arid and semi-arid).
They should have federally regulated water usage and be required to have heat and exhaust treatment ON SITE
They should have daily penalties for failing to meet zero emissions targets scaled to their profit margin (i.e. a percentage rather than a set amount) THAT ARE ACTUALLY ENFORCED.
NO DEFERRED PROSECUTION AGREEMENTS. EVER.
They must show provenance for EVERY piece of art and writing in their data sets, and show that they have made contracts to use EVERY SINGLE ONE before they are allowed to use them. Hold them to the same standards as every other form of media.
They must inform the end-user about data privacy and that chatbots are not a substitute for therapy, research, programming, work, school, and are not to be used for anything but novelty.
All of this would severely hobble them and expose how much of a turkey GenAI actually is. I doubt they can make money off it without theft and lies. It's a very expensive toy.
I'm in favor of all of this. Let's make it happen.

"it was suicide" how does someone w broken arms and broken legs climb a tree to hang themselves? how does someone w broken arms and broken legs tie a noose and put it around their neck? how does someone w broken arms and broken legs do that?
they don't.
it's called lynching, it's called murder, and anyone telling you otherwise is a racist who would watch Black people die for entertainment before so much as lifting a finger against the police, against the politicians, against white supremacy. a young man's life was snuffed out by white supremacists, but you people will not talk about it bc you'd sooner watch Black people suffer & die so that you can keep your "safe space".
Trey Reed was a student, only 21 years old with his entire life ahead of him; he was found hanging from a tree near his university's sports court. the racist police said there was "no evidence of foul play", despite his body being beaten and his bones broken.
Ashleigh Walls, who represents the Reed family publicly has already had to put out a statement BEGGING for you sick cunts to not share the footage of Trey's body, because even in DEATH, Black people aren't human beings to you, but fucking entertainment objects.
“On behalf of my family, I ask that you please not share the very graphic video of Trey. For some of you it’s information, entertainment even but for us it’s a living nightmare. At this time we ask that you keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we navigate through this difficult time.”
Ben Crump, a civil rights solicitor, is also representing the Reed family, and is putting pressure on to conduct a full, independent, investigation into the death of Trey; they are going to pursue justice and transparency so that Trey can be properly put to rest, and his family don't go through even more trauma.
“Trey Reed was a young man full of promise and warmth, deeply loved and respected by all who knew him. His family and the campus community deserve a full, independent investigation to uncover the truth about what happened. We cannot accept vague conclusions when so many questions remain. I stand with this family, and I will lead a team of civil rights leaders and organizations in pursuing transparency and answers for Trey’s family.”
Black people do not lynch themselves, and given the history of hanging publicly and the history of Mississippi itself, there is no way that Trey would've committed suicide by doing that, especially with broken bones; a three to five minute walk from where he was living. During the celebration of the university turning 100, a public spectacle. 48 kilometers from where Emmett Till was murdered. that's not a suicide.
Trey deserves justice. Trey's family deserves justice.
do not let another Black body become "true crime" entertainment, only to be forgotten about when the next murder that you can turn into some salacious, anti-Black, whodunnit comes along; do not let Trey Reed become some "true crime" campfire story that dishonours him, dishonours his life, and glorifies racist violence. do not let Trey Reed be forgotten and swept under the carpet.
do not let another Black person's life and love be swept away and covered up by white supremacist media, police, social media and talking points. do not let Trey Reed become another statistic, another number, another object. Trey Reed was a student, a family member, a friend, a living, breathing, person who was murdered; do not let him fade into silence. do not let his family go through that.
remember his eyes, his hair, his face, his name. remember HIM, and fight for his justice.
