Please stop being nonbinary too. God only created one gender. You must conform to that.

THERES ONLY ONE NOW?????

these days you can call the US an empire and nobody will bat an eye, but the way some people get worked up when you start talking about acts of US imperialism. empire doesn't just mean powerful lmao, it means you're exploiting foreign populations

Trans day of every tabloid shuts the fuck up about us forever. Trans day of let us have our healthcare and leave us the fuck alone. Trans day of tearing down the panopticon. Trans day of let us control the narrative instead of deferring to some cis sexologist's hallucination.

also I know land back is ~complicated~ but I do think it's pretty easy, when someone asks what that means, to start with, "do the Indigenous people of a place have the ability to sustain themselves on the land as they choose without being disrupted by settlers?" like take all the "property ownership" aspect out and just answer me that. Do Indigenous people have the power to prevent settlers from turning their land into housing or industrial plants or golf courses or national parks if they (the Indigenous people) do not want them? If not, it's still colonialism!

and it's frustrating because to me this is the floor or whatever. there are many important and interesting things we need to discuss, such as how Indigenous people who have been removed from their lands might return to their ancestral lands if they desire, how Indigenous communities that share land might navigate that, and what it would mean to have large-scale societies that may not be majority-Indigenous while maintaining the autonomy of the Indigenous people of that land...

I'm not saying we all need to become degrowthers and tbh I am still very much learning about how logistics of sustaining a society work on large scales but tbh if you as a communist can't say "yes, we will ensure that Indigenous people's lifeways [including not just 'traditional' lifeways but the lifeways we currently practice] are not disrupted by imposition of settler infrastructure" without raising a whole stink about ethnonationalism and shit, why the fuck would I even want to talk to you

“They’re just looking for attention.”

Oh, a human being is seeking a social response? Human being, the social animal wired to make and track social connection? A human desires the vital blood that permitted their species to survive for millennia? The human being who was born completely helpless and primed in every way by nature to seek attention and help from their community?

Wow that’s crazy. How embarrassing. Humiliating even. Should we isolate them from community? Should we call Wire Mother?

People will be so mean to teenagers do you literally not remember what it was like to be sixteen. Every time I talk to a teenager I feel I should hold their hands and tell them I think they're one of the bravest people on the planet just for choosing to endure but I don't because I don't want to be creepy.

I have rarely seen an actor enjoying being Malvolio that much.

This is exactly it. He is having a GREAT FUCKING TIME. A lot of the time Malvolio is played like he still kind of has a stick up his ass even in this scene. Like, ok, he's the Puritan, he's not allowed to have *fun,* he's just allowed to be smug and self-satisfied. So he just comes off as extra creepy.

But this Malvolio has been entirely transformed by the idea that Olivia thinks he's a sex god, and it's just glorious. Not a shred of self doubt, zero concern for dignity, absolute conviction that between his kinky boots and his tight ass he is fucking IRRESISTIBLE. And that is really fun to play. It's also more fun for the audience. Like you can laugh *with* this Malvolio instead of just *at* him. Changes the whole game.

I need to inform you all that not only does it have the scene above, but it also has attractive men in suits doing pushups, Lupita N'yongo in a suit singing in Nigerian, and also THIS GOING ON.
