Finished The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune yesterday. It was such a cozy, magical, gay book 🌈✨. There’s so much cute art online (picked one from Pinterest). Here’s one with all the main cast.

The collective journalistic freakout over someone disliking a cafeteria sandwich at Oberlin or some Yale students asking their peers to be less racist at Halloween has generated far more copy and uproar than multiple universities illegally firing faculty for nonconservative speech they disliked.

These posters for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth are the greatest thing ever? #art
Poster for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth showing Lady Macbeth whose back is turned to us, and Macbeth posed towards us with his hand on the back of his wife's neck. The long cut in the back of her dress reveals skin in the shape of a sword/dagger that Macbeth seems to be holding.Poster for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth showing Lady Macbeth facing us with her cleavage cut into three pointy triangles. Macbeth is kneeling in front of her, away from us, his face in his wife's chest. The exposed skin of Lady Macbeth looks like a crown that aligns with the top of Macbeth's head.

anti-vax stuff is toxically unpopular. everywhere, every time it is polled, every time it becomes a major election issue. to the extent MAHA and RFK Jr. don't have polling numbers as low as this it's because they've (with the media's help) lied about the extremism of their anti-vax position.

AITAH for "training" a guy "like a dog"?
1(23F) have recently started seeing this guy (26M). he's super pretty, but he's kind of emotionally unavailable and he's alluded to an unstable/ unhealthy childhood.
for context, i also work w socializing abused and neglected dogs at a local shelter and i think how much time i spend w the dogs is impacting the way i interact w ppl.
when we were on a date i started subconsciously making mental notes abt him like the notes id make abt a dog. for example, i noticed when we went out to dinner i noticed he ate really quickly and was very anti-sharing (resource guarding) but when i offered to pay and suggested dessert it seemed to make him really happy and a little calmer (food-motivated); he's really particular about his car (territorial/ crate aggression); he likes when i pick where we go/ what we do (eager to please), etc. so, ive started using the tactics id use on a dog w similar problems.
recently a friend (22F) pointed out that it's weird that i keep peanut M&Ms on me w the specific purpose of offering the guy one when i see him, and offering them again whenever i can tell he feels vulnerable. she said that im being an asshole be he's a person, not a dog so i shouldn't be "training him like one."
i don't think that's fair, im not trying to control him or anything, i just want him to feel comfortable w me the same way i need the animals im helping to be comfortable w me. humans and animals aren't THAT diff after all, we all just want to feel safe and cared for. the guy hasn't noticed yet as far as i can tell. the problem is, my "technique" is yielding really positive results.
AITAH? should i stop?

Before the State of Exception, Bukele frequently did this with high profile victims, or families of disappeared . He’ll reverse something if he can leverage it for PR to save face without addressing it. And his followers (aka focas) use the media moment to gaslight critics.

This putrid human is celebrating the decimation of trans rights in the UK. She’s gloating because she helped fund it. She funded it thru money she makes off Harry Potter. She will continue to do this. It’s her “mission”. Supporting Harry Potter harms and causes death in my community. Factually.
