bringing back my too woke opinion that you should be allowed to change labels without the previous one being incorrect
i think you should be allowed to identify as trans without retroactively saying you were also trans in the past. i think the "born this way" rhetoric is limiting and you should be able say stuff like "i was fully a girl when i was a kid and now im a boy" without it invalidating your current identity but maybe that's just me
Angel with a railgun!!!
religion is so fucking funny the world is just too beautiful there must be a higher entity behind all this. lets oppress women
reminded me of the mario 64 hurt mp3, I just have
to clarify questions not being asked. I'm a faggot with yt-dlp on my laptop, it was either this or purposely low quality rips of in the aeroplane over the sea
they call it bloodlust because itās meant to turn you on
I was looking for references and stumbled across a series of paintings from 1930s by Soviet painter Alexander Samokhvalov called "The young women of metro construction"
y'all need to relearn the word erratic and stop using schizophrenic/bipolar/psychotic as a replacement
y'all need to relearn the word particular and stop using ocd as a replacement
People need to relearn the word "egocentric" and stop using narcissist/narc as a replacement.
People need to relearn the word "impulse" and stop using "intrusive thought" as a replacement
People need to relearn the word āimaginativeā and stop using ādelusionalā as a replacement
People need to use the word āfascistā when thatās what they mean and not ānarcissistā/āsociopathā/āpsychopathā
i love you. you made a mistake? i dont care i love you. you made a wrong choice? love you. you donāt think youāre good for anything? guess what youāre good for loving i love you
i was 15 when i made this post and iām 25 now, and still seeing people reblog and tag this with things about their lovers or their friends or characters or themselves or that they really needed this today. i dunno it just feels really special to me. thank you, keep loving each other, i still love you.
problematic rage gap. one partner tries to bring nuance and understanding to a tough situation. the other wants to blow up the earth about it.
life pro tip: if you happen to be considering purchasing an LG TV or monitor, you possibly want to pick something else! and if you have an LG monitor that has not been plugged into anything in a while, you might want to leave it that way!
if you already have an LG monitor or TV or intend to buy one, you probably want to watch this video and keep an eye on gamers nexus for updates (or anyone else covering the LG spying situation):

LG is doing some bad things. how bad? well. here are some very brief bullet points. I am not an expert, gamers nexus is, see the video for more information than this:
LG monitors (brand new and years old, cheap and expensive) auto-install LG's own adware-spyware called LG Monitor App onto windows 10 and 11 computers. you plug in an LG monitor for video output and this gets installed automatically. no hitting OK, no confirmation, no toggles, NOTHING.
the auto-installed LG Monitor App auto-grants itself access to your internet connection and ALL computer resources. the LG Monitor App has the ability to collect: geolocation data, device data, personal information, online activity data, contact data, and more!
...and it shows pop-up ads! because fuck you
on some affected versions of windows, auto-installed shitware like the LG Monitor App can be prevented by navigating to gpedit.msc -> computer configuration -> administrative templates -> system -> device installation -> prevent automatic download of applications associated with metadata
...but, if your LG monitor already installed the LG Monitor App, this is like closing the barn door after the horse got out. and that horse has the logs of everything you were doing on your computer! someone stop that fucking horse!!!
unrelated to the LG Monitor App, many LG TV owners are now required to tell all household members and guests that their LG TV is recording and processing ALL nearby voices. or else they may be in violation of local eavesdropping and wiretapping laws. for owning a fucking LG TV.
plus, how many businesses, workplaces, public spaces use LG TVs?
allegedly the microphone spying can be turned off by disabling microphone features, but LG has been caught disregarding opt-out settings before.
LG TVs can record everything that happens on the TV, including the video output of connected devices like phones, computers, gaming consoles, anything that happens on the TV screen.
LG was sued for their spying, and as a result of that spying suit, now shows pop-ups saying oops! they got caught spying and intend to continue spying. thanks for buying LG!
as of when the video was posted, there was no list of every spying LG monitor or TV. but this stuff is getting rolled out to more and more LG devices, including those purchased years ago.
and that is the shortest summary I can make of this situation without just summarizing more of the gamers nexus video.
Update: We are working on a follow-up to the LG story and have some disturbing findings re: LG's products. It will take us a while to parse
ā¬ļøposted july 23 2026
gamers nexus is fairly respected in technology journalism. they fly around the world investigating companies that fuck people over and have pressured major companies to make major changes over the years.
so for gamers nexus to say that this LG spying situation is both unprecedented in how uniquely bad it is in this era of spying, and that it gets even worse than their video where they already say to stop buying and using LG products while recanting every prior recommendation for LG products?
oooooofff
This weekend I was told a story which, although Iām kind of ashamed to admit it, because holy shit is it ever obvious, is kind of blowing my mind.
A friend of a friend won a free consultation with Clinton Kelly of What Not To Wear, and she was very excited, because she has a plus-size body, and wanted some tips on how to make the most of her wardrobe in a fashion culture which deliberately puts her body at a disadvantage.
Her first question for him was this: how do celebrities make a plain white t-shirt and a pair of weekend jeans look chic?Ā She always assumed it was because so many celebrities have, by nature or by design, very slender frames, and because they can afford very expensive clothing.Ā But when she watched What Not To Wear, she noticed that women of all sizes ended up in cute clothes that really fit their bodies and looked great.Ā She had tried to apply some guidelines from the show into her own wardrobe, but with only mixed success.Ā So - what gives?
His answer was that everything you will ever see on a celebrityās body, including their outfits when theyāre out and about and they just get caught by a paparazzo, has been tailored, and the same goes for everything on What Not To Wear.Ā Jeans, blazers, dresses - everything right down to plain t-shirts and camisoles.Ā He pointed out that historically, up until the last few generations, the vast majority of people either made their own clothing or had their clothing made by tailors and seamstresses.Ā You had your clothing made to accommodate the measurements of your individual body, and then you moved the fuck on.Ā Nothing on the show or in People magazine is off the rack and unaltered.Ā He said that what they do is ignore the actual size numbers on the tags, find something that fits an individualās widest place, and then have it completely altered to fit.Ā Thatās how celebrities have jeans that magically fit them all over, and the rest of us chumps canāt ever find a pair that doesnāt gape here or ride up or slouch down or have about four yards of extra fabric here and there.
I knew that having dresses and blazers altered was probably something they were doing, but to me, having alterations done generally means having my jeans hemmed and then simply living with the fact that I will always be adjusting my clothing while Iām wearing it because I have curves from here to ya-ya, some things donāt fit right, and the world is just unfair that way.Ā I didnāt think that having everything tailored was something that people did.Ā
Itās so obvious, I canāt believe I didnāt know this.Ā But no one ever told me.Ā I was told about bikini season and dieting and targeting your āproblem areasā and avoiding horizontal stripes.Ā No one told me that Jennifer Aniston is out there wearing a bigger size of Ralph Lauren t-shirt and having it altered to fit her.
I sat there after I was told this story, and I really thought about how hard I have worked not to care about the number or the letter on the tag of my clothes, how hard I have tried to just love my body the way it is, and where Iāve succeeded and failed.Ā I thought about all the times Iāve stood in a fitting room and stared up at the lights and bit my lip so hard it bled, just to keep myself from crying about how nothing fits the way itās supposed to.Ā No one told me that it wasnāt supposed to.Ā I guess I just didnāt know.Ā I was too busy thinking that I was the one that didnāt fit.
I thought about that, and about all the other girls and women out there whose proportions are āwrong,ā who canāt find a good pair of work trousers, who canāt fill a sweater, who feel excluded and freakish and sad and frustrated because they have to go up a size, when really the size doesnāt mean anything and it never, ever did, and this is just another bullshit thing thrown in your path to make you feel shitty about yourself.
I thought about all of that, and then I thought that in elementary school, there should be a class for girls where they sit you down and tell you this stuff before you waste years of your life feeling like someone put you together wrong.
So, I have to take that and sit with it for a while.Ā But in the meantime, I thought perhaps I should post this, because maybe my friend, her friend, and I are the only clueless people who did not realise this, but maybe weāre not.Ā Maybe some of you have tried to embrace the arbitrary size you are, but still couldnāt find a cute pair of jeans, and didnāt know why.
This post is one of those things that I will reblog every time it appears on my dash.Ā This is so important, and no one ever tells you about it.
I almost didnāt read this but then I did and Iām really glad that I did.
Super important
Tldr: The reason clothes never ālooked right on youā is because models and celebrities always had their clothes tailored to fit them perfectly.
I love this post but it always frustrated me just a little because I canāt even afford to buy new clothes let alone get the clothes I have tailored. But then I remembered that a lot of things are easier to do than you think they will be, so hereās some resources on how to alter your own clothes!
Please read this, itās an opportunity to learn about yourself, possibly a new skill and why it isnāt you, itās the industry.
āLife is just unfair get used to it!ā
No. Anything is possible and life is very customizable. Youāre just not nobility.

Hey everyone how's it going
Digital circus' biggest problem is that it was written to be a niche show aimed at weird analytical queers with actual media literacy and it accidentally blew tf up and hit the mainstream and a bunch of people who have never had a second thought about anything got into it
