The Supernatural writers took the bury your gays trope to a whole new level like this shit is the funniest thing to me they legit made him canonically gay and then killed him immediately after he confesses BECAUSE he felt happy while confessing I'M GOING INSANE
AND sent him to SUPER HELL
AND IT WASN’T EVEN MUTUAL
Craig has already mastered the art of flipping the bird, it is futile to challenge him.
Inspired by the fact that I recently learned how to do the Triple Middle Finger, and honestly it’s one of the dumbest things I’ve spent my time on.
You can watch how to do it “here”.
Thoughts and prayers for those who aren’t Dragon Age fans, but who follow Dragon Age fans during this dark and trying time. The time of incomprehensible fantasy politics essays is returning… I can hear the rumble of a thousand mechanical keyboards being smashed upon by gamer fingers with the kind of fury and speed that man was not meant to produce. Bullshit ahead.
so it turns out I needed to update this (original line “Nothing you can prove”) and I’m not mad about it
You'll get more chances. At friendships. At relationships. At job/school related progress. At following your dreams. At chasing your passions. It's not now or never. There will always be other chances and other opportunities.

If 20 years from now they’re writing a greatest moments in gaming history list and this isn’t on it, the wrong people are writing it
This tiktoker shared some simple ASL for people to know to help deaf/hoh people communicate their needs while everyone is wearing masks !
“I have a hard time accepting diversity as a synonym for justice. Diversity is a corporate strategy. It’s a strategy designed to ensure that the institution functions in the same way that it functioned before, except now you have some black faces and brown faces. It’s a difference that doesn’t make a difference.
Diversity without structural transformation simply brings those who were previously excluded into a system as racist, as misogynistic, as it was before.”
—Angela Davis
Holyyyyyy fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkk
suddenly remembered this poem as i was making breakfast this morning & frantically googled “poem remembered to buy eggs?????????” & somehow managed to find it & it utterly knocked the wind out of me just as much as when i first read it
idk who needs to hear this but when your english teacher asks you to explain why an author chose to use a specific metaphor or literary device, it’s not because you won’t be able to function in real-world society without the essential knowledge of gatsby’s green light or whatever, it’s because that process develops your abilities to parse a text for meaning and fill in gaps in information by yourself, and if you’re wondering what happens when you DON’T develop an adult level of reading comprehension, look no further than the dizzying array of examples right here on tumblr dot com
this post went from 600 to 2400 notes in the time it took me to write 3 emails. i’m already terrified for what’s going to happen in there
k but also, as an addendum, the reason we study literary analysis is because everything an author writes has meaning, whether it was intentional or not, and their biases and agendas are often reflected in their choice of language and literary devices and so forth! and that ties directly into being able to identify, for example, the racist and antisemitic dogwhistles often employed by the right wing, or the subconscious word choices that can unintentionally illustrate someone’s bias or blind spot. LANGUAGE HAS WEIGHT AND MEANING! the way we communicate is a reflection of our inner selves, and that’s true regardless of whether it’s a short story or a novel or a blog post or a tweet. instead of taking a piece of writing at face value and stopping there, assuming that there is no deeper meaning or thought behind the words on the page, ask yourself these two questions instead:
1. what is the author trying to say? 2. what does the author maybe not realize they’re saying?
because the most interesting reading of any piece of literature, imho, usually occupies the space in between those questions.

plague 10: death of the firstborn
jakob eilander:
bring back Georgian-era sentence structure. fuck this single clause Hemingway bullshit; I want to string the reader along for pages, to link, however disparate, an endless array of actions using every form of punctuation I can imagine - even those I rarely use - and generally be as incoherent as possible (though it is to be said that this is for internet and casual use, and not for increasing the impenetrability of research papers, a far less noble goal than the one I proposed).

This wasn’t a government stunt to try and avoid doing something meaningful, but a coming together of community artists who did it for free. Which is why it’s the best.
Desmond Cole and the case for defunding police
Desmond Cole, activist, journalist and author, offers his opinion in a conversation with Adrian Cheung, on the movement to defund policing and why he thinks the system of policing, as we understand it, should be abolished.

really getting sick of people who aren’t trans women saying “y’all find out JK Rowling is a terf every three months…. we already fucking knew” like. sorry, but it didn’t stop being a big deal that the most well known author in the fucking world literally belongs to a hate group dedicated to eliminating trans women’s rights. that’s a big fucking deal, and people are allowed to talk and post about it when it happens.
“y’all find out JKR is a terf every two months!!!” is just a way to dismiss trans women’s worries about her. yeah we already knew, but she’s STILL doing it and it’s HURTING us. but you wouldn’t know because y’all don’t actually give a shit about trans women.
stop saying shit like this.
y’all don’t realise like. JK Rowling being a terf isn’t like a fun example of this annoying “boomer” being out of touch and politically incorrect; JK Rowling is the MOST WELL KNOWN AUTHOR in the WORLD and she is now actively telling people they should join the terf movement. this is going to cause trans women to die. she’s already buddy-buddy with politicians who have the power to cause trans-related legislation.
JK Rowling being openly a terf and advocating for terf politics and policies on her Twitter is going to have real world effects. this isn’t dumb fandom drama. this isn’t “read another book”. trans women are BEING HURT and are GOING TO GET HURT because of this. i have already had an uptick in terfs in my inbox/notes after this. this isn’t funny. this isn’t meaningless. this is NEWS and it’s SCARY so stop fucking joking about it.
