it’s a beautiful day to check out a book from the library

[meeliesaysno]

its a beautiful day to return a book to the library unread after it auto renews 3 times

[ksfoxwald]

The library says thank you for boosting our circulation stats and the book will still be here later if you want it another time <3

[izzybutt]

Okay, but also, you know that series you maybe are thinking about watching on a not-so-legal platform?

Your local library might have it. No ads, no risk of malware. Just a regular old DVD from the library. Hell, could be a great, free date night - take your boo or bestie and each of you pick out a movie or a series, and watch them together.

Even if reading isn't your thing right now, you can still support your local library. <3

Well. They yassified Carrie White:

Like..........

She's not even naked or bleeding, the fuck are these girls even recording???

Half of them are showing less skin than she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[meduseld]

Fucking:

It's the same picture. What are we doing here.

[meduseld]

Just make an original story and gooooooooooo. Carrie snaps after years of bullying, because as a kid she started preaching the gospel at the lunch room and they laughed at her. She was ALREADY a long standing target when the story opens. And also, her main bully was at home, but suddenly the iconically unhinged Mrs White is. Not abusive?

WHY MAKE CARRIE THEN. AT ALL

[shelterwoodpod]

Carrie is, like, thee book about how we fail fat weird girls with abusive parents. Shaving all the edges off doesn't just make a worse story, it ignores the fundamentally ugly truth that we STILL FAIL girls who are too ugly or strange to be considered worthy of sympathy, leaving them to the whims of parents who may well hate them. I don't understand why Flanagan has become so pathologically incapable of letting horror stories just BE DARK, but it's really de-fanging a lot of stories for a lot of people! Hill House is not about the power of family it's about how lonely people will literally kill themselves to feel any sense of belonging, no matter how fleeting. Carrie is not about a mother and daughter doing their best, it's about the real and present hatred that ESPECIALLY ISOLATIONIST CHRISTIANS have for any young woman and especially young women who are fat, weird, and/especially or refuse to conform. Much like the society at large. I'm losing my mind

[fuckblast]

I remember in King's book on writing where he talks about Carrie (by the way, we have Tabitha to largely thank for a lot of the particularly poignant horror like the "plug it up" scene) and he mentions one of the girls who inspired it coming in with new clothes and feeling so proud about it, and how that was completely gone by the end of the day, because she was still just a target as a poor fat ugly kid.

Who wrote this version, Kirk Cameron? Feels like she's being persecuted for her religion instead of it playing a hand in her abuse.

that is a fucking insane amount of donuts, theres like 6 people in this room

it looks like an edit or something bit irs just in the show like this

[kiburebuc]

[kiburebuc]

cooper dissociates while albert is absolutely flabbergasted by the insurmountable quantity of donuts

[toodrawtothink]

Still one of the best animations I've ever done. Took just under a week and was equal parts fun and challenging. So here are some process passes! The full version had too many colors so I had to do some compression T0T

As always, no ai.

[bigender2]

unfortunately i do love pompous and pretentious characters. ☝️ WHO get their asses handed to them this is pivotal to my enjoyment of them

[bigender2]

if theres a pompous/pretentious character who never gets thrown around like a gross rag, or they never have some ego breaking event happen to them then whats the fucking point

Critical support to these scammers weaponizing homophobia to drain right-wingers' bank accounts 🫡

[artistformerlyknownasbutttrumpet]

i was training a young person at work, and she referred to sexual assault as "SA" out loud, and i immediately was like, "no, it's sexual assault, call it what it is," bc idgaf if the algorithm overlords have taught y'all that you should fear direct language, how tf do any of you expect to ever address real issues with any amount of seriousness if you can't even say the words? imagine an advocate looking a sexual assault survivor in the eyes and asking "did he grape you?" it's absolutely fucking absurd, but these young interns and new hires are coming into an environment where we deal with survivors of all different kinds of abuse, and they're coming with the mindset that the words are as bad as the actions, and that makes them shitty at the job and look juvenile af

i HATE self-censorship for a lot of reasons, but being in crisis work makes it even more frustrating. who are you censoring for? like i am being so fr, WHO are you censoring for? have you even thought it through? people who have been raped know that they have been raped. if someone attempts suicide or is grieving someone who did, saying "sewer slide" isn't going to protect them from any of the feelings. a murder victim's family isn't going to feel better bc you said "unalived" instead of murdered. if anything, it's just extremely invalidating and othering. it's saying "what happened to you is so bad that i won't even say the word," which is NOT trauma-informed care. you are not protecting survivors/victims when you self-censor. the ONLY things you protect when you self-censor are the puritanical ideologies that are being encouraged by rich fascists who want your money and obedience

say the fucking words, guys. just say the goddamn words before i go insane!!!

ready for what the next week brings...

sometimes i dislike something but everyone else who hates it seemingly hates it for only insane person reasons
