Fun reminder that Mary Woolstonecraft, the godmother of English feminism mentioned trans icon Chevalier d'Eon in her seminal work The Rights of Woman and thought she was an exemplar for all that women can achieve.

So there.

Monster will be coming to Blu-ray next year!

It's been a long wait for many of you who wanted this.

The entire series in HD, subbed & dubbed.

There have always been trans and non-binary people. They have long been recognized by history, medicine, sociology, and by empathetic and decent human beings. They are an inseparable part of LGBTQ+. They are not an “issue”. They are a fact. Don’t piss in a boot and tell me it’s soup, Polari Prize.

It's a little funny that despite most generations of Americans growing up with one extremely important genre defining Tatsunoko anime, most people seem to only know Yoshitaka Amano as The Final Fantasy Guy Who Paints Ethereal Twinks In Watercolors.

Ellie Mulligan, 36, makes the same enquiry every time she’s too unwell to get out of bed, makes a social faux pas or accidentally punches herself in the face while brushing her teeth, despite being fully aware of her autism and gazillion comorbidities.

Aldrich was shortly joined by an amorous couple with impossibly wet-sounding mouths, a baby in the throes of demonic possession and a man shouting into his phone that he was “in the quiet carriage, yeah, I’ll call you back, cos I’m just in the quiet carriage – no, THE QUIET CARRIAGE!”

Man the job centre situation in this country is fuuuucked.

So. To claim job seekers, I must do 35 hours of job seeking. Fair enough. And attend mandatory meetings at the job centre in town.

Tbh It's actually okay to suck at stuff you enjoy doing. You don't have to gear into competition or be the absolute best. Existing and having fun is just as worthwhile. You don't have to make money off it. You don't have to get published. You can literally just create it, fail, learn, and make more

Anime fans look at Eureka Seven like a teenager looks at a Blackberry Phone. Anything older may as well be lost media to them. They don't know how to torrent, they don't own a DVD player, if it's not streaming it functionally doesn't exist. We really need to recommend stuff more.

Man… the first time the Rani’s been back in New Who and we get this over the top cackling mad science lady performance? (I feel like even with Kate Mara, it wasn’t this hammy and obviously ‘mwahahaha I am evil’)

What Moore says next in the interview is more important, to me. Nobody is coming to save us, we have to do it ourselves, in community with each other.
