One funny thing Elon Musk figured out about the media is if, instead of providing comment to reporters, you email back an automated reply saying "go fuck yourself," the reporters will just invent their own plausible-sounding defense of your conduct to balance their stories instead of punishing you

Honestly, the radfems who got in with the Tumblr fandoms of the early to mid 2010s could give lessons to the CIA, I'm SO not joking
The whole "purity culture" BS is probably one of the most successful right-wing infiltrations.
It's managed to lead to a whole bunch of people basically adopting a very paternalistic kind of prejudice (usually misogyny, but not exclusively) while under the impression they're being progressive.

I drew another phone wallpaper for a friend. Her favorite horse-girl is TM Opera O!
I wanted to add my own flair to make the drawing unique.
What abilities do you think this giant robot would have? I wanna see YOUR answers in the comments!
