This is incomplete reprint designed to provoke. The bill had voter ID attached to it in order to get it killed, making it so Republicans could run this exact headline.

i should clarify, when i write people doing bad things, it's because i am bad. they are me. more importantly, when you read about those bad things, they also become you. that's how story works. in fact, you are going to think about murder before this skeet ends. how's that feel, sicko.

I also want there to be more emphasis on boys understanding and practicing consent. AND speaking up when they see fuck shit. Don’t just turn the other way.

It is several hours later and I'm still aggravated and shocked at the absolute nonsense that occured with the Ellipsus discord server. Moderation teams for things you pay for should have more sense than to tell you to stop complaining and that you should stop using that thing.

Deeply annoyed at being lectured over something by someone utterly clueless. Version history retention and recall for text files should not be 'expensive' unless things have been poorly programmed, and that shouldn't be poorly programmed because it's an extensively longsolved problem.

i hope that men notice how whenever a rape story gets widespread coverage, women use it as an opportunity to vent about how fucking disgusting we think many of you are and how many have made our lives measurably worse, and take a few moments to deeply process that.

Discworld QOTD, from The Wee Free Men
Witches are naturally nosy,” said Miss Tick, standing up. “Well, I must go. I hope we shall meet again. I will give you some free advice, though.”
“Will it cost me anything?”
“What? I just said it was free!” said Miss Tick.
“Yes, but my father said that free advice often turns out to be expensive,” said Tiffany.
Miss Tick sniffed. “You could say this advice is priceless,” she said, “Are you listening?”
“Yes,” said Tiffany.
“Good. Now...if you trust in yourself...”
“Yes?”
“...and believe in your dreams...”
“Yes?”
“...and follow your star...” Miss Tick went on.
“Yes?”
“...you’ll still be beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren’t so lazy. Goodbye.

If you love stationary and based on sales, I think a lot of people do. Here's a gentle nudge to move past "collecting" and to actually USE the stationary. Write letters to friends and family. Send thank you notes. Write actual cards and MAIL THEM.

At the local library system's librarycon. On the one hand, it *is* a convention and thus has a handful of vendors with tables inside and typical convention things should be expected. On the other hand I was still taken back by a table having sexy Sonic and friends art.

On the latest TBV chapter... I think while Code is very clearly reading it as Hidari trying to attack and kill Sarada, I don't think that's what is going through Hidari's head. I think he was aiming for Code and his grip on Sarada, especially since his focus after she gets loose is still on Code.

Did volunteer orientation at the local library today. Have some real mixed feelings that the local system apparently has so many volunteers with their MLIS who haven't been able to find work that they have a full separate setup in place for how to utilize under/unemployed would-be librarians.

I am just so tired with attempting a job hunt locally because at this point I am half-sure the city HR is filled with malice/take everything completely literal to the text to the point of it being impossible to get a job unless you are already doing that exact job with that exact title.

The run up through this election is going to be so thoroughly exhausting thanks to Talarico deciding to listen to consultants. I am not looking forward to being judged for voting for him when the alternative is rolling over and letting Ken Paxton become a senator even if it is an uphill fight.

You know, when you find out that the art you like is made by people you've learned hold views you find wholly repugnant, I don't think you need to disavow ever having enjoyed the art. It's okay to acknowledge you liked or loved that art, but are now putting it aside. That was then, this is now.

I got a new phone today, finally, after just over seven years because my old phone wasn’t just showing signs of internal aging (slowing down, freezing, massively reduced battery) but was also actively starting to fall apart this last year. And I do mean fall apart.
A Samsung Galaxy S10 phone lying in pieces on a comforter.   Not only is back of the phone  off, so is the lens cover.

As a collorary to the bad people therefore make bad works thing, I'm also tired of "this thing must suck because a horrible person likes it". Use your own brain to decide, especially if the person who is claiming to like the thing is an absolute poser desperate to appear cool to begin with.

“this person is bad so their work was always bad” is also a really dangerous view to take because it leads to - unconscious or not - a bias towards “but I do like this other person’s work, ergo they must be a good person” which, as we have seen over and over, is simply not true

If you love a webcomic, consider doing two things: 1. Personally recommend it to one other person 2. Comment on pages You have no idea what these small things do to help a comic grow! Peer-to-peer is how a fan base is built, and comments boost engagement, setting the comic up for more success! 💖
