This is what peak coolness looks like to this day.

The powerful and cool Meta Knight, from Kirby Superstar.

There's a part in Twin Peaks where Cooper is surprised that Denise is still attracted to women, and Denise looks at him like he's a dipshit, and if I had seen that when I was a 20, I would have transitioned 17 years earlier.

With this ALF cross stitch, you can make sure your friends are always paranoid that you may be serving them cat meat!

An ALF Cross Stitch kitchen plaque, where it constantly reiterates that he loves to eat pussy.

The most realistic portrayal of a manic pixie dream girl is Anthony in the film Bottle Rocket.

the extent to which online infrastructure is simultaneously 100% funded by taxpayer money and yet is 100% owned by private companies is an all-time world-historic civilization-defining lead-in-the-pipes level failure of every single apparatus of social engineering ever conceived by man.

The Why Cheap Art? Manifesto, Bread & Puppet Theater, 1984

the WHY CHEAP ART? manifesto
PEOPLE have been THINKING too long that
ART is a PRIVILEGE of the MUSEMS & the
RICH. ART IS NOT BUSINESS !
It does not belong to banks & fancy investors
ART IS FOOD . You cant EAT it BUT it FEEDS
you. ART has to be CHEAP & available to
EVERYBODY. It needs to be EVERYWHERE
because it is INSIDE of the WORLD.
ART SOOTHES PAIN !
Art wakes up sleepers !
ART FIGHTS AGAINST WAR & STUPDITY !
ART SINGS HALLELUJA!
ART IS FOR KITCHENS!
ART IS LIKE GOOD BREAD!
Art is like green trees!
Art is like white clouds in blue sky!
ART IS CHEAP!
HURRAH!
Bread & Puppet Glover, Vermont, 1984

Last week at a party, a couple of people commandeered the tv and started speedrunning games without asking anyone if it was fine to switch from 4 player games to that. So I decided to figure out how far you can get in Super Mario Bros without hitting the run button a single time, just in case.

Decided to flip through an issue of Crossdresser's Quarterly from 1995 to see how much of it was just straight-up trans women, and the answer was: A LOT.

A page of ads from Crossdresser's Quarterly from 1995, selling dubious HRT concoctions.

Look, I've seen enough horny art by people that don't always draw horny art, and I've seen a lot of Chuck Jones drawings, and I have to say: Chuck Jones definitely wanted to fuck Bugs Bunny.

Chuck Jones once explained that he always viewed Bugs as a transsexual, back when that was the standard term for a transgender person. This is at least partly because Chuck Jones wanted to fuck Bugs Bunny so bad. Like, look at how Marvin is drawn. Look at how he drew Daffy, or Elmer, or Sylvester. They're not the same. Sometimes he drew Porky the way he does Bugs, but not usually.
