There is no such thing a accidental cruelty, it just doesn't exist. Some actions may be attributed to ignorance, but the second someone says "Hey, that hurts!" and you continue that action, it becomes (and always was) cruel and it's the point of the action.

I love how the entire economy is now oriented around “fuck you personally for being poor and living in society”

Labour said they'd ban conversion therapy.

Then went on to introduce a new Section 28 for trans kids in schools. Which is conversion therapy by any other name.

This thread 👇🏻 explains the origins of this abhorrent practice. Everyone should read it.
Content warning for conversion therapy, suicide.

One thing I'd like to add to this is that not only does conversion therapy not work, the academic work that launched an industry of abuse was based on fraud; Rekers and Lovaas' "Sissy Boy" experiment, the child subjected to it later took his own life
The problem of conversion therapy is, as ever, not that conversion therapy doesn't work (although that's true) but that it constitutes an act of violence to suppress almost exclusively vulnerable people's core psychological development and that is devastating.

Always remember, the cruelty is the point.
And ICE officer openly brags on camera about sexually assaulting a detainee.

They know and are aware that they won’t face consequences.

Me too.
Introducing KHAO5, my new webcomic! It's a comic about some space rabbits. In a military academy.

This aims to be a graphic novel so the format is not a comic strip.

Page 1 is up, and Page 2 is also up on Patreon! Updates Tuesdays :D

If you are confiscating writing materials from imprisoned children because they smuggled out a letter that described the conditions they're living under, you are a literal monster and should be treated accordingly.

I had this Superman toy as a kid and I still absolutely love the absurdity of it.
Here's my variant cover for Superman/Spider-Man #1 without the text, featuring the vehicle that climbs walls and the other one that punches. Because I knew what to do with my one chance to draw Spider-Man.

Condoms are an important safer sex tool for sex workers, however it can sometimes be difficult to get clients on board with using them. Swipe through for some sex worker advice and find more sexual health information at Red Book Online redbookonline.org.au .

You are following our series about what is wrong with the WA SWer laws... this is perhaps one of the worst bad laws and most overused by police in the 25 years since it was introduced.

Without evidence, based on suspicion of engaging in engaging in street-based SW, police can 'Move On' to anyone.

I understand framing the AI bubble RAM supply crisis in terms of stuff like video game consoles because nerds can conceptualize that but the framing does really undersell the sheer magnitude of how it's going to fuck up everything that even touches a computer.

As much as I could empathise before being disabled, I absolutely get it now.

Hell because of how fucked the system is, I'd have an easier time getting access to the government services I need if I smoked all my life, even though my disabilities have nothing to do with it.
Being disabled is not a moral failing.

It’s not something you can try harder your way out of.

Healthy lifestyle and “wellness” won’t stop it from happening.

It’s a minority group you can join at any time.

We aren’t less than.

We aren’t expendable.

We aren’t to blame.

Anti-SW laws poorly disguised as anti-trafficking efforts lead to police raids of strip clubs, brothels, and parlours, where police then arrest, fine, harass, deport, and assault SWers btw

For five years I've run over fifty therapy D&D campaigns in the same world; Emdyria.

Emdyria mostly leans on D&D's canon deities but I'm inducting another into the Pantheon.

It’s weird noticing even the people who seem to be deriving maximum benefit from genAI are ALSO miserable from it. I haven’t had a job in a year because it’s destroyed my career and livelihood, meanwhile the people who should be profiting from it can’t unplug long enough to watch a movie anymore
