A painting of an explosion in space is in the background, with stars around the edge and a black circle in the centre. It is bordered by a box with embellished corners.]

Is it socially acceptable to use opaque watercolors, or is that considered gouache?

it's totally fucking crazy making how many transmisogynists these days will try to gaslight you about "trans men transition towards a privilege of power" having "always been a TERF talking point" btw. literally not something that any TERF has ever said because it violates the fundamental argument that gender positionality is immutable and is in direct opposition to the core thesis of trans exclusionary radical feminism but if you suggest trans men have any advantage over trans women you'll get called a TERF in the same breath as someone defending the concept of "afab oppression"

i think every single airline and automobile lobbyist in washington dc needs to be shot

[mystery-incorporated-whore]

air travel is one of the most atmospherically pollutant activities we undertake as a species and the interstate highway system is a concrete scar across the land that does more to isolate communities than it does to bring them together. they both need to be burned to the ground

[mystery-incorporated-whore]

can you tell i just watched a youtube video about the history of rail travel in the us?

its less pollutant, easier to upkeep, a smaller footprint on the land, more convenient for travellers, and cheaper. god what i would give for a functional nationalized rail network

[mystery-incorporated-whore]

like. imagine for a second if the entire nj turnpike was demolished and replaced with a double track mainline. not only do you reclaim literal HUNDREDS of miles of forest edge, but ALSO building wildlife crossings over or under that mainline is MUCH easier than the 12 lane gash that was there before

[mystery-incorporated-whore]

oh and it goes without saying that every single one of these lines is required to have an indigenous consultant (or multiple) on during its construction to make sure they avoid any and all religious or ceremonial or historic sites

and then 100% of the money made (not just the profits, ALL money made) goes directly to the tribes that own the land

[mystery-incorporated-whore]

did you know that one of the main things that killed passenger travel in this country was the usps pulling its mail contract with railroad companies to use airlines instead? i dont know what asshole lobbyist was responsible for that decision but i am going to dig up his grave and shoot him in the head

[queerangelic]

i am afraid i overwhelmed my new therapist today. i went into the weeds of hospital politics....

[kaylmao]

idk i would personally rather give up access to certain products seasonally or locally than have people enslaved to give me the ability to have any product any place any time. i think i can go without tomatoes in january.

[kaylmao]

i truly do think that most people if confronted with it and pressed on it would agree. but it's comfortable to gain privileges from someone else's suffering, especially if you don't have to see that suffering directly.

interview with the vampire, the novel, treats homosexuality in a pretty bog standard way for 70s american media—a grotesquerie too unseemly to be addressed by name, whose practitioners are either helpless but still disgusting victims who rightfully want to die to kill the disease inside of them, or gauche, subhuman predators who reach grisly ends as a result of their perversion. it goes through the homophobic traits noted in chapter three of the celluloid closet like a checklist. and then not that long later the vampire lestat has a completely revised view of homosexuality, treating gayness and gay relationships with a kind of clumsy, eager voyeurism, titillation where before there was only artistry and disgust. something happened between 1976 and 1985 that resulted in anne rice’s fujoshi awakening

was it star trek ii: the wrath of khan (1982)

[thevictrola]

It was likely the birth of her gay son Christopher in 1978.

[helloitsbees]

you’re suggesting that he came out of the womb and then immediately came out as gay

[oldtvandcomics]

No, only after watching Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982).

Monkeys paw wanting an androgynous vibe my voice will never be deep enough to pass without buckets of voice training and control my top surgery has left me with AA cup assymetric swelling my hair is definitely falling out and i still can't go swimming.

[dividedindiversity]

Are you boycotting the men's world cup?

Yes, completely

No, I'm watching

Only the games that happen in the US

Only the games that happen in Mexico

Only the games that happen in Canada

The games that happen in two countries but not a third

Can't boycott what I wasn't going to engage with anyways

I'm actually playing in it

What's a world? What's a cup?

My name is Sepp Blatter and the world cup is boycotting *me*

I only watch when Belgium wears their little trans shirts

I'm ball / infinitely more nuanced option / leave in tags

really losing my patience for any 'feminist' statement to the tune of 'we need feminism because women fill a fundamentally different and necessary role than men and will be better at doing x y or z'. like actually i think we need feminism because it is an unbearable death of the spirit by inches to exist in a world where you are not seen as a fully realized human being because of a single cultural determination, and because a world that enshrines such things creates systems that are fundamentally sick to the core

Just realised.... The rates of anti vaxx and conspiracy theory minded patients is going to rise.... As all the middled aged facebook aunts become elderly facebook aunts.... And I'm going to have to deal with so many more of them.....

why can rockstar games institutionalise you for life like nikita kruschev for being autistic

[transhuman-priestess]

He didn't steal 10 million dollars. They made that number up as a loss, they never fucking had it. Rockstar has spent more than a billion fucking dollars on GTA VI and will likely make billions more when it gets released.

Uber is a fucking shell game of a company designed to leech investor capital and output bootleg cabs.

Nvidia posted a profit in 2023 of $4.37 billion. This is like someone stealing less than a penny from me.

And they lock this kid in a prison hospital for LIFE?

Capitalism is disgusting.

[fuckblast]

Nobody should buy GTA til they free Arion Kurtaj

[transhuman-priestess]

What with GTA VI going up for pre-order i'd just like to remind everyone that rockstar conspired with the UK government to lock an 18-year-old away for life for hacking them.
