I don't really care whether MTG is sincere as much as I'm glad to clock her defiance as a "Trump downfall indicator."

Unfortunately the hydra still has many heads.

"Vertical Microdramas" oh you mean soft core porn for wine moms who want a visual version of the potato chip ebooks they consume on Kindle Unlimited? oh you mean fetish fanfiction with original characters? oh you mean the thing they'll turn to AI for the moment self insert video gen becomes viable?

I think my more specific take on this is "humans are not inherently selfish or cooperative," but capitalism is a system that rewards sociopathy and exploitation. Collectivism rewards those most willing to be communal, so maybe we should build society on the foundation that doesnt favor ghouls.
We are a social species, and we have always prevailed through cooperation. Caring for our sick. Raising children we didn't sire or birth because they were part of our village or extended family. We are not breeders and predators, we are communicators and survivors. We evolved to UNITE.

I think Livescreamers was like, the first hard evidence to me that the cultural internet, and our memory of it, is split totally down generational lines.

The response to that movie from people who somehow don't remember Rooster Teeth (7-8 years ago??) and people who were THERE is night and day.
I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme.

So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

UPDATE: The news of relief is short lived, as Trump is now appealing to the Supreme Court to block the order requiring his administration to follow the law and fund SNAP. The lengths they are going to leave Americans hungry is wild. Absolutely heinous.

MAGA is just annoying. Really really really fucking annoying. The transphobia collective psychosis has gotten absolutely fucking insufferable. And a TON of people are getting so fed up with it they’re going out of their way to try to get it to stop.

They’ll insist this is a
one-off victory — something that can only happen in New York & nowhere else.

They’re wrong.

New York is the world financial capital — home of Wall Street & billionaires from across the globe.

If everyday people can defeat oligarchs here, we can defeat oligarchy anywhere.

well I for one am shocked that "every aspect of your life gets worse forever and also look at my marble bathroom" did not turn out to be a winning election strategy

JKR well and truly needs to be deplatformed and yes, making this franchise socially and financially irrelevant is the first - and essential - step toward that.
It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

this is awful. teen vogue has done such important work
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.

Just want to urge anyone in the U.S. eligible to vote for anything at all this election cycle to please do so. Shock everyone with the turnout. Make jaded pundits cough coffee out their noses. Make poll volunteers smile. Make voter suppressors nervous again.

Look at these fucking assholes. All these people are clearly chill and not causing a fuss. They’re not even out in the street. And the cops just come in and start beating people

I know a lot of people are already spreading this info, but hoping to spread it a little further: donating to a food bank, food pantry, or food distribution mutual aid group is really important right now, as TFG and the fucking GOP are shutting down snap benefits on November 1. I'll link to a few
