Heyo. I'm mostly here to make sure no one takes my username, but I'm interested in

- gaming
- film & TV fandoms
- Worker's Rights
- Memes
- Dunking on Mayor Eric Adams
It's rare for me to find a place that does white rice in that sticky, home-cooked style that I find so nostalgic. So many places go with the good-but-drier-and-harder grains

Stranger Things viral marketing is getting out of hand
The enormous consequences of this are clear: we may have found a parallel universe where The Power of the Daleks wasn't wiped.

Banks are targeting individuals by name because of their "high risk" line of work who are too outspoken. This is why we need you to stand up for nsfw creators
Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”

I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!

So Disney says the reason the MCU started declining is because there was too much content being churned out.

And now they're planning to fill their subscription service with potentially as much user-generated MCU content as their audience can generate? 🤔🤔🤔
Bob Iger says Disney+ will soon have AI-generated short form content from users

Rewatching Stranger Things in prep for Season 5.

Finding myself focusing on different things this time around.

Like being more annoyed that Joyce doesn't even have the stereotypical moment where she realizes she stood Hopper up. 😅

I love that the Boston cop slide never got fixed and now people just willingly go down it in tribute. It’s basically a national landmark at this point

There's a reason ICE doesn't want detainees to have their day in court, their day to testify
A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

This is a really vulnerable time for paypro call centers. It's already been reported that Mastercard is stressed by our persistence

I know we're all busy around this time too but let's fire the engines 🔥
#SaveSpeech

starting Nov 1st we're entering the holiday season, which is a big stress point for big businesses like Mastercard and Visa. These Paypros havent stopped cracking down on Adult Content, so we need to jump back into calling them in full force again!

We need to expand our definition of violence.

Violence isn’t just doing physical harm.

Homelessness is violence.

Starving people is violence.

Denying marginalized groups their human rights is violence.

Paying people less than they need is violence.

Misogyny is violence.
