My daughter is 15, a child with a baby face whom I won’t even put in an Uber by herself. Just utterly disgusting from the same people who have spent years demonizing trans people as predators for daring even to exist. What are we even doing right now?

yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing

Time for GUILLERMO DEL TORO'S FRANKENSTEIN DISCOURSE!
I keep seeing people worry about whether del Toro properly did justice to Mary Shelley. And I have to ask: why is that del Toro's job more than anyone else's?
And also, didn't he?
And also, how could he? He's not a mother. 1/

Dying at the idea that Richard Siken may at any moment drop into your mentions to tell you your pet ship, specifically, is un-Siken-like. No one ask him about wangxian I don’t want to have to retitle old fics.

Cynically, I do see a market for this. The studios tried to create walled fanworks gardens for decades; fans who actually enjoy making things themselves always rejected them. But the person who doesn't want to *participate* in culture, but wants to see Spider-Man and Baby Yoda hang together? Well...

I switched all the moderation flags to "warn", I'm not confident they will be correct and want to see what they warn for.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

God, a thousand times this.
That's the thing with dopamine being tied to task initiation - there's a set of gears that won't - CAN'T - engage in my brain, but none of my problems are with analysis.
I can be fully aware of all the necessary steps, and stressing about starting, and just... not.

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.
“How did you receive the foreigner? And did you receive him and welcome him or not?”
Pope Leo XIV challenges us to reflect on the moral cost of policies that target deeply-root immigrants and families.

followups/self-QTs add that they fired all the trans staffers and Black women. so, SO fucked
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
