The best argument for leaving Twitter has less to do with giving oxygen to a Nazi platform than what spending a lot of time on such a platform does to our brains. It’s easy to see how many once normal people on there, right or left, have truly lost themselves in conspiracy theories and false facts.

Girlies didn't wear "panties" or "smalls" during most western history. They were free ballin' under that shift and all those petticoats until split crotch drawers were introduced in the 19th century but even then, they weren't something everyone wore THAT'S WHY THIS PAINTING WAS SO SCANDALOUS

Former “free speech” crusaders have ushered in an unprecedented campaign of censorship in Texas universities, resulting in pulitzer winning books being banned, medical and scientific facts being suppressed, and entire fields of study deemed “woke” being eliminated www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...
Over the past decade, some conservatives have invoked principles of academic freedom and free speech in order to subvert both. These conservatives mocked “snowflakes” and “trigger warnings,” and then passed legislation making it illegal to hurt white students’ feelings by discussing historical or contemporary events. They invoked academic freedom and then began erasing fields of study they found politically inconvenient. They railed against “indoctrination,” and then argued that the state is entitled to control everything said in the classroom.

Kick the football, Charlie Brown!
A Peanuts parody comic, in which Charlie Brown prepares to kick a football held by Lucy.

Charlie runs for the ball, but the energy is different here. He looks focused. Determined. Even Lucy looks surprised.

Just as Charlie is about to kick the ball, a gigantic foot comes in from off panel and punts him. With his token "AUGH," Charlie has exited the scene.

We cut back to Lucy, turning in fear to look at who --WANT-- kicked Charlie.

From Lucy's POV, we see a gigantic humanoid figure, backlit by the sun. They have six fingers on each hand.

We end on a large wideshot, revealing the full scale of the massive creature, with Lucy dwarfed by them. 

Their face is implacable, a wisp of wind blows some leaves across the otherwise peaceful scene.

The horrors persist, but look at this tiny little sea bunny doing its best.
The sea bunny is a 1-to-2 cm sea slug resembling a fluffy white rabbit with black speckles, dark ear-like antennas, and a bushy tail-like gill cluster. Its body has a unique velvety, carpet-like texture. It really does look remarkably like a bunny rabbit.

CHARACTER LAYOUTS. One of the important jobs , along with animation timers, that got absorbed into the storyboard artist role over the last decade, leading to tons of burnout and scope creep. look at the clarity of storytelling you can get when you bring back lost roles!

Vance certainly has gay acquaintances. Most obviously his mentor and most important political booster, Peter Thiel, is gay. But his mental model of Texas voters is that they are a bunch of redneck rubes, so a insinuating a straight candidate is gay will work.

Grindr is training its AI on your photos, your age, and your taps by default, without asking. This video shows where the app buried the off switch. The stakes are high on an app like Grindr. Numerous countries criminalize same-sex relations, so being outed through your data can be dangerous.

yes, the long-running hatred of rep. omar by the republicans is built on misogynoir and islamophobia, but also in her existence as a physical symbol. the idea of a refugee rising to become a political elite is so antithetical to their vision of a hierarchical society, they must try to suffocate it.

People seem confused by the last item on this list, so please allow me to post this traditional MAN EXCERPT of MAN-APPROVED LITERATURE by a MANLY AND MASCULINE MAN
“He lay there and felt something and then her hand holding him and searching lower and he helped with his hands and then lay back in the dark and did not think at all and only felt the weight and the strangeness inside and she said, “Now you can’t tell who is who can you?”

“No.”

“You are changing,” she said. “Oh you are. You are. Yes you are and you’re my girl Catherine. Will you change and be my girl and let me take you?”

“You’re Catherine.”

“No. I’m Peter. You’re my wonderful Catherine. You’re my beautiful lovely Catherine. You were so good to change. Oh thank you, Catherine, so much. Please understand. Please know and understand. I’m going to make love to you forever.”

-- "The Garden of Eden," where a lady convinces the protagonist to get the same haircut as hers and then trades genders with him (during a round of pegging) by MAN APPROVED MASCULINE AUTHOR ERNEST HEMINGWAY
