But I have to note that this is yet another case in a very bad pattern that I've noticed way too much.
CW: Sexual assault, sexual harrassment, grooming, abuse

unfortunately it seems I have to tap the sign again
The only thing you can count on from the Democratic Party is not being able to count on them.

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

I have no idea what any of this is about or what I'll use these VST plugins for but I do like buying things out of spite
Do you want $473 in audio plugins for literally less than $3 because guitar center pissed off Sam Pura? If you use the discount code FUCKUADANDGUITARCENTER to get his everything bundle you can live this dream.

They say to never speak ill of the dead, only good.

James Dobson is dead. Good.
James Dobson, who founded the conservative ministry Focus on the Family and was long a campaigner against abortion and LGBTQ+ rights, has died at 89.

There's no separating the art from the artist in this case. She has made it perfectly clear that she likes your money and intends to use all of it to oppress people.

Fuck this awful woman forever.
J.K. Rowling is using her wealth attained from the "Harry Potter" series to create an organization dedicated to removing transgender people's rights "in the workplace, in public life, and in protected female spaces.”
