a lot of queer & trans people functionally make watsonian vs doylist arguments or thermian arguments on the question of "rep" and it makes media critique and analysis basically impossible. characters are not real human beings.
Reiki therapist: your energy is fucked up. It's bad.

Infowars/Onion combo logo in rainbow saying “I support the onion’s hostile media takeover.”
It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.
“Are you a homosexual, Barbara Ivanovna?” Mona asked suddenly. Yegorova grunted. “That’s none of your business, detective!” “Well, I’m a homosexual.” Mona said. Yegorova blinked at her. “Klara, I understand your fears. You knew there could be social consequences for your feelings and you were unsure if your affection would be returned. That is the kind of world we live in. A man has the power to assume a woman might love him– but two women have to feel in the dark for love and might never know if they even found it. But what you felt was not something aberrant. You felt love for another person, and a desire to receive her love in return. None of that was perverted, evil or obscene.”
Salvator took a long drag of the cigarette, close to spent. She stared out of the balcony. “Whenever I look around at all the people I’ve known, and the people who have come and gone, the people I’ve lost, the people who love me and hate me– I realize there aren’t that many of us in Novograd. Whatever people want to call us– fairies, queens, transvestites, sodomites. Not actually that many. It feels like a massive world when it’s your world; but its like a snow-globe scene compared to the rest. It felt nice to see you there, detective. Living your own life with your assistant in the venerable Main Street. A new corner where our existence is challenging the world.” Mona looked out at the city in the same direction as Salvator. Trying to see what she saw.
happy lesbian visibility week!!! is there any better time to read some novellas about a butch detective and her femme assistant being visibly lesbian in a world that's opposed to them? you should read Emptiness Effigied!!! i think it's an incredibly moving and special story. i love it so much.

100% I've said this before, but learning to say a project is "done enough" and moving on and also just stubbornly continuing to make shit even if it isn't good are more important than being the world's best draftsperson.
Ok now that you’ve read palantirs manifesto you should check out this manifesto. You may have heard of it.

fun thing about having location sharing with my wife is i get to see brief glimpses into how fucked local traffic conditions are and wonder in amazement at how the gps could have done that to her
Exactly one year ago today:
book looks like it's been read the appropriate amount of times
Meme that says "thank Baphomet I'm not one of those heterosexuals"
Hey fyi way too many, even leftists who should know better, effusively praising the papacy is making it way, way more difficult to organize against this.
This trans healthcare ban is literally going to cost trans people's lives but yeah, woke pope made a statement or whatever.
It’s a telling indicator of media desensitization that the US government’s ongoing program of murder on the high seas—which according to the perpetrators has killed fourteen (14) people this week— is no longer a subject for much serious or sustained news coverage.

the church is basically what happens when the machinery of oppression figures out how to calcify instead of imploding in a dumbass fascist feeding frenzy. catholicism is 2000 years of internally consistent propaganda on why it's good to be ruled, with a bunch of provisos that never matter re: "how"
