Okay, I’m going to say this again. Travelling to claim asylum is not “illegal migration”. It’s going to a country you believe you will be safe in to ask for help and refuge.

It is legal to do that. It really really is.

For being a bit of a weak album over all, Hesitant Alien by Gerard Way has two of my favourite songs ever 💖
Brother and Drugstore Perfume are just wonderful 🙂

Labour can get in the fucking bin.
I know they’ve done awful things this whole time, but changing the right for refugees to apply for permanent residence is petty, cruel and honestly to fuck, can you all just not?
Just stop being an awful government for three seconds and think humanely.

I think Sauron and Boromir fundamentally agreed on the dark realm’s accessibility problem, which is the great irony of the orcs thinking he was naming it Mordor when he was in fact asking for more doors, so one could simply walk into it.

A picture is still worth a thousand words, but due to AI slop, those words are all melting, illegible gibberish.

I've had a few creative ideas rolling around my head recently, so I'm debating doing a not-affiliated-to-any-other-writing-challenge writing challenge 😅 See if I can actually make some progress without reffering to the stupid organisation that quite rightly fell apart 🤪

You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

fuck yeah
Kenya transgender rights victory hailed as African first

And this is Batman's Aff His Nut by Robert Florence, which, in my opinion, is easily the greatest Scottish poem ever written about Batman...

I need to get past the bit I'm stuck on in Silksong so I can make some progress. Mostly so I can go back to watching my favourite streamers who have all surpassed me 💔🤣

Diego Luna did a 4 day stint guest hosting Jimmy Kimmel's now suspended show. This bit is wonderful and also called out the situation now.

Haha remember dial up modems? And old school websites? And that one website we all kept coming to, even though we never typed in the address, the one that was a black screen with a picture of a man, and every time we visited the man in the picture was just a little closer? Haha. And remember AIM?

I just reposted a couple of versions of "I'd Rather Be an X-man" by Gail Simone, you should go read them. It's a wonderful little bit of writing about how to accept and understand people.
Here's the bit that stuck out to me though:

I hope you all read this from me.
To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement.

However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read.

I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here.
