I have been in this fandom since like 1993, & I never had a fursuit or an actual fursona.
This is giving strong "I can't go to the anime/comic con UNLESS I HAVE A COSPLAY!" vibes, & no, my dear sweet young people, you can just go & wear your fave nerdy clothes, I promise you will still find pals!
Everyone who’d complained about the mediocre half-effort AAA industry pushouts should be cheering for this and the chance to put something new into the field.
The same enthusiasm that went towards Markiplier making Iron Lung a smash success “against all Hollywood odds” should be happening here too!
*talking to teenage militant atheist self*
current me: okay so there’s a big fight between the government and the catholic church
teenage me: got it, so we’re obviously on the side of the government
current me: I, uh, you might want to sit down for this one
If you let them ban porn, they will call you pornographic when they ban you.
To all the weird shitlibs who insist BlueSky is just as bad as Twitter, here we’re celebrating one of mankind’s greatest achievements, and over on Twitter they’re calling Grok slurs for telling them this “fake and gay” image isn’t CGI.
Y’know.
Just to put that argument to rest.
Arresting, prosecuting, and doing away with ICE and their dear leader is good for humanity and the economy :)
BTW since they don't record which ICE officer did what, just arrest all of em :) They're all guilty. And thats the moderate position ~
i'm not an economist but if 900 people can afford to fund $3,000 checks to damn near everyone else in america and still be insanely fuckin rich afterwards maybe they have too much fuckin money
wishing a very SLEEP WITH ONE EYE OPEN to all other anti-trans Democrats nervously looking ahead to their own primaries
Ohhhh
If we depend on tech company CEO's to do the right thing we're all gonna die in a fire
Even if incest kinks aren’t your thing and even if you find it disgusting or weird, this is dangerous. They’ve come after strangulation and seem to be coming for more. This isn’t about “safety” it’s about controlling online anonymity and further shaming sexuality. Wishing my friends in the UK luck ❤️
i dont think "twitter is the largest producer and distrubtor of csam thats ever existed" has really sunk in
Fascists can attack us but it won’t stop us. The more we’re attacked the more we fight back and the more folks radicalize more into direct action and antifascist action.
There’s a lot of chronic pain on the left, invisible wounds from confronting boneheads and letting them know they’re not welcome
Found an additional graphic that gets even more of these quotes together.
I've kept "I hate myself, I hate clover, and I hate bees" pinned above my desk since I first started studying evolutionary biology as an undergraduate. So relatable to get extremely frustrated with your study system.
Badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers badgers! Smash some fascists!

More and more people are learning Starbucks' CEO flys a private plane from his house next to his first office in Newport Beach to his job in Seattle with the office that has actual people.
For the record, Oren Cass is simply not an economist. He does not have the training. He has never practiced. “Chief Economist” is a deliberately deceptive title.
I never want to hear the words “bipartisanship” from a Democratic politicians mouth ever again, unless that means working with Marxist-Lenninists-Maosists and Anarchists.
Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude
The most infuriating thing about this article (and why I feel justified linking to it directly) is that it's actually good, decisive journalism. It doesn't feel the need to consult the other side for "balance."
If only they had listened to trans people who were warning about this years ago.
"Tell me you know nothing about the Muppets without telling me you know nothing about the Muppets."
It's also important to keep in mind that not all of the files have been released.
Absolutely no one has faced consequences for what is one of the biggest crimes against humanity in modern American history.
