Reminder that I'm making a new tumblr soon to sort of have a single space instead of three sideblogs
tomorrow is the fourth anniversary of the dobbs decision, which overturned roe v. wade. since then:
13 states have total abortion bans
41 states have some sort of abortion bans in effect
51 Planned Parenthoods were forced to close in 2025 ALONE
women have died because doctors are scared to treat deadly miscarriages for fear of prosecution (and so many more are unreported)
this has led to miscarriage care being heavily mismanaged / compromised (2.8% increase in patients being sent home to wait and see; 2.2% decrease in medication management; and a 13.8% jump in misoprostol-only treatment, which is safe but not the standard of care in US and may take longer, resulting in more discomfort)
republicans are trying to make it illegal to ship medications like mifepristone, which are used to safely induce medical abortions (scotus reversed a decision to make it illegal, but lower courts are still fighting)
ob-gyns are leaving, in mass exodus, states with abortion bans which leaves a massive gap in reproductive healthcare
and i know i'm missing more.
I find political quizzes like this funny because the quiz thinks that by disagreeing I'm saying that I have faith in the system and institutions and people in general, when my disagreement comes from the fact that the elite group of people that want to install a totalitarian government (aka extreme right wing fascists) are not secretive about it at all lol, in fact they're loud and proud about the whole thing
For anyone wondering, the PhD student's name is Myra Cheng.
Here's a link to an article about the study from the Stanford Report: link.
Across three preregistered studies, participants interacting with sycophantic AI became more convinced of their own rightness and less willing to repair relationships. Yet at the same time, participants rated sycophantic AI models as higher quality, more trustworthy, and more desirable for future use, which may explain why this behavior has persisted despite its harmful impacts.
Myra Cheng et al. "Sycophantic AI decreases prosocial intentions and promotes dependence." Science 391, eaec8352 (2026).
the thing about misandry is that it isn't real not only in the sense that women do not have structural power as a class over men but also in the sense that women to not have the class consciousness necessary to support any substantial misandrist sentiment beyond some individual women disliking some men
I'm going to make a new tumblr soon, I have like 3 separate blogs and it's a hassle, I'm just going to combine all my shit into one blog. I need a new start. Expect me + fandom shenanigans. DM me if you want the new url (though I'm writing down the urls of my mutuals to re-follow in the new blog)
Isn't it interesting how every single one of my friends' boyfriends/husbands has a rare untreatable combination of ADHD, anxiety, autism, and trauma which completely excuse and explain all of his shitty abusive behaviors while simultaneously justifying his refusal to do his own chores?? And isn't it fascinating that this pernicious epidemic of severe learning disabilities has completely escaped the purview of the medical profession, leaving speculative diagnosis entirely up to the careful conscientious examination of Dr. Girlfriend?
The fact that Emily Armstrong was the first woman EVER to headline Download festival... and that's only because she's in Linkin Park now like it's not even originally her band. The state of rock/metal music is so fucked...
That being sad, I need to make friends to go to Download eventually, some year, at least for a couple of days.

A large part of the reason families were bigger in the past was because marital rape was not considered rape and birth control/abortion methods were ineffective, dangerous and/or illegal. We can dance around this and act like our great great great grandmothers just loveddddd being mamas so much that they decided out of their own free will to have 11 children. We can pretend that they DECIDED to have big families because it was a financially advantageous decision so they could have more labor around the farm. But a lot of children in the past were fundamentally unwanted and not conceived out of love, children were not a choice women got to make. We need to admit that and stop pretending historical women were inherently more maternal because they were impregnated at the age of 15 and kept having babies until they were 40. That did not make them loving mothers, it did not make them ‘the divine feminine’ and it sure did not make them happy.
Oh my fucking god i just got resale fan to fan linkin park tickets!!! ON ticketmaster!!! The concert is next month!!!

Onto my third coffee of the day and it's not even midday oh boy
please say sike
hey so! if you only read the dialogue in a book, WATCH A MOVIE OR READ A SCREENPLAY!!!! if you only WRITE dialogue in a book, WRITE A SCREENPLAY!!!!! YOU ARE NOT READERS!! it's not "literary gatekeeping", it's HOW BOOKS WORK. also. there's legitimately no way to "prioritize plot" if you only write dialogue. THATS NOT HOW THAT WORKS!!!!!!
I know everybody's focusing on the people openly admitting they're skim-reading but I want to point out that the OP thinks reading "30+ books a year" is insane and unachievable and only possible if you're skim-reading.
Most genre fiction (which is what dominates booktok - mostly romance and psychological thrillers) clocks in at around 60-80k words. That is the length of the first Harry Potter book. Even the longest of booktok's favorites usually clock in at around 100k words, which is about the length of the third Harry Potter book. These are not big books. And let's be real, they're not exactly dense, challenging reads either.
So what kind of tiktok-addled, attention span-rotted, illiterate bullshit is this conversation? Even a slow reader who doesn't have a lot of uninterrupted reading time should be able to finish a book in the span of a week or two. These people claim to like reading. Is it really so insane to imagine that a person who likes reading would, um, read?
The Trump administration is spending more than $100 million to fight the "emergency" of "white genocide" in South Africa.
Every single one of the 599 refugees the US admitted last month was a white South African, according to data the State Department’s Bureau of Population released Friday.
In fact, so was every other refugee admitted this year. Since October 1, 2025, the US has accepted 6,668 refugees. Of those, 6,665 were white South Africans. Three—admitted last November—were from Afghanistan. No other refugees were admitted.
And this is only half the story. They are also revoking the legal status of existing immigrants granted protected status due to fleeing dangerous conditions in their home countries… and let’s look at which countries they are:
Since Inauguration Day, more than 1.5 million immigrants have either lost or will lose their temporary legal status, including their work au
