And like, that's the whole joke, he notices Johnny walk in and he hangs up and the scene moves on. But honest to god that shit was the funniest thing ever. Who has questions about salt??? What would you even ask?

I'm reminded of a joke from a TV show that didn't last long called... Johnny Zero, maybe? Anyway at one point title character walks into his flat and his somewhat-doofy roommate is holding a canister of salt, staring at the label, on the phone, saying "I have some questions about your salt?"

—and then suddenly you have no arguments left. I wish we saw more discourse about how slavery is an unwise, self-defeating practice because it ALWAYS RESULTS IN REVOLUTION—but no, it's just "forcing people to work without giving them money is immoral, we can't do it as long as everyone is a person".

I feel like when people say "slavery is bad", they usually mean "slavery is morally wrong" and stop there. The problem with that is that it's a weak argument. All a society has to do is declare that a certain class of actor doesn't deserve moral consideration—something which happens ALL THE TIME—

WELP. I'm sure this is fine and will all be glossed over and addressed simply and without any lasting consequences, probably in the next episode or two, nothing to worry abou

I’m not trans, in the sense that I never experienced gender dysphoria. My transition in and of itself wasn’t essential to my mental health; I would have ended up where I am today—disavowing gender entirely—breasts or no. What was essential was the freedom to choose what to do with my own damn body.

Thank you so much for the recommendation—and yes, we've spoken! He is, unsurprisingly, extremely busy with ER, but we both want the same thing: to bring light and hope to a world that has been crying out for it. I feel so honored to be stepping up onto the same stage as him. ~D

To protect our country from the abuses of power, No Confidence does three things. One, It removes everyone at the top from office, seat, and bench. Two, it gives us a way to choose a trustworthy Interim Government. Now, find out how it shelters that government from corruption in Episode 4 of UTW.

Welcome to Disability Pride Month, also known as “Abled People Wrinkle Their Noses and Ask Why You’re Proud of THAT” Month, and let’s just handle this now: I am not proud of my disabilities per se. I am proud that ignorance hasn’t ground me into dust yet. I am proud of my fellow disabled people.

If you posted something today about how upset you are about the Supreme Court, but you haven't yet done anything to turn those feelings into action, consider spreading the word about #UTW. We're going to be rolling back these decisions you're so angry about, but we need your voice to do it.

I second recommending Unsighted. The time mechanic sounds more stressful than it is but with active marking of items you can't get on at the moment to your map and its very managable.

Weird question, but where do I send press releases about starting an activist movement? Like, I'm sure there are a lot of people that *want* to know about it. I'm just not sure who. If you happen to know any of those folks, though, send them my way! Reposts greatly appreciated. ❤️

This is the highest compliment I can think to give you, and I'm just sorry that it probably doesn't land as powerfully as I wish it did: you have the same kind of uncompromising attention to detail that I treasure in myself, and I am so impressed by your work! Can't wait for #GoblinGirlGame

I don't know that this has any validity, I haven't done any research into the history (and moreover, I haven't done any research into the likely veracity of said historical record). Just an idle Friday thought.
