However rancid and morally bankrupt you think TERFs are, they are worse. They believe in nothing but their own comfort and exercising power over others. They think they should control your body and the bodies of everyone you love. They think they should decide who lives and dies.

Along w/ this, the “COVID protections” era was about whether disabled people should be allowed to participate in public life & lots of people decided no & threw their masks away, refused to learn, adapt or clean the air, & went anti-vax. The killing spread to everyone because it stopped for no one 🤷🏾♀️
At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

there is no such thing as a good Nazi, and there is no such thing as a good ice/cbp/dhs agent

Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

I’ve tried really hard not to curse in front of the nibling so now they walk around saying
“They have taken leave of their senses” & “balderdash”

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open 'just to do quick research'
![You’ve got super fans pausing and zooming in on individuals frames of your documentary. One allegedly shows one of the Duffers with a ChatGPT tab open on their computer. In your presence, what did they use ChatGPT for?
I mean, are we even sure they had ChatGPT open?
I’m personally not, but the internet seems sure.
Well, there’s a lot of chatter where [social media users] are like, “We don’t really know, but we’re assuming.” But to me it’s like, doesn’t everybody have it open, to just do quick research?
I do.
How can you possibly write a storyline with 19 characters and use ChatGPT, I don’t even understand.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7t2urmt3i33jl6tjgiolio6g/bafkreidw2tmcr2ayq74oqmjm5pn2tdox6hlxnpqevhuqqj6oa7nsslx3oi@jpeg)

A common rationale I’ve heard repeatedly as to why romance adaptations are often unsatisfactory is “you can’t film a thought”
Williams & Storrie w/Tierney prove that wrong each frame. From their posture, intonation, & their gazes that can flash 26 different emotions a second
It’s truly remarkable

Along with these terrible choices, please I am literally fucking begging authors to understand that if the ONLY tension in a romance is a secret the MCs are keeping from the reader? YOU HAVE WRITTEN A BAD BOOK.

How my sibling & I arrange phone calls:
“Everyone is okay.
No one is mad at you.
This is not an emergency.
Call me to talk about XYZ.
Don’t forget to eat lunch! 😜”
Apparently this is unusual but it’s less stressful than when I see 4 missed calls from my mom and a “CALL ME” text
