I've noticed an influx lately of people getting mad at someone posting "I am going to do the right thing" because they didn't arrive at that decision soon enough or have some complex feelings about it, and friends, this is not helpful.

I was tempted to pirate HP, curiosity and all that. But @jessiegender.bsky.social is right - think of the amount of times HBO commented on GOT leaks and downloads, just as an example. They DO track these things, and even that drives interest. Let this show die. Trans people deserve better.

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes
A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"

Just comparing the stenographic account of fantasizing about catastrophic mass casualties with the one shot full of drama and high stakes of an obvious gaffe.

After justifying the Iran war as necessary for "keeping the world safe," Trump suggested there could be strikes on the United States, including certain cities in California.
"They could take out a city," he said. "Let them take-Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego."coin-toss election, where any small shift theoretically could be decisive, Mr. Biden has twice caused headaches for his vice president with ill-timed gaffes. His latest, during a video call with Latino supporters on Tuesday night, forced Ms. Harris to spend part of the last Wednesday of her campaign distancing herself.
Mr. Biden was denouncing racist comments made by a speaker at a recent Donald J. Trump rally when he appeared to call supporters of Mr.
Trump "garbage." He later explained that he meant that "the hateful rhetoric" from the Trump surrogate was
"garbage," not his supporters generally.
But Republicans, expressing umbrage, quickly pounced on what they hoped

it was smart of jacob geller to only post about what he did to his 50k followers on here instead of to his 1.5 million youtube subs or on his patreon. that way fewer people know about it and he limits the financial hit

A customer just tried to use an employee discount code that ChatGPT gave her. I work at a high-end clothing store and clocked in to my manager telling me about the most unhinged interaction from yesterday. A woman walked in asking if she could use a 40% off code she got online. We don't have any sales running, so my manager looks at the screen and realizes ChatGPT straight up handed this woman a real employee's internal ID number.

The entire Malfoid saga, complete with the revelation that multiple RW chuds on this website are actually quite gifted fan fic writers, should give you a glimmer of hope that the arts can be reclaimed from decades of Progressive mediocrity.
There is a yearning for something greater. As one of my followers wrote to me in a DM, this is a fantastic sign for the future.

Malfoid hit rw twitter like crack hit the black ghettos because it's essentially the perfect inversion of what the shitlibs have been doing to us for decades.
Instead of taking something we held sacred and desecrating it by making it woke and gay, we've taken something they once held sacred and defiled it by making it chud coded.

Finally a publication brave enough to put into print what everybody is talking about. (www.newyorker.com/culture/phot...)
A block of text from The New Yorker with the word "Under-titty sweat" highlighted.

Full quote:

Sometimes when I find myself inflating with rage about the lack of acclaim that has come to Cyrus’s œuvre, I think about how you must be able to feel his work in order to understand its depths. You need to understand the musicality and care about the lives in the images. Something I’m always noticing in the photographs that make up “Uptown Odyssey” is sweat. To understand the value of this detail, you must understand the value of seeing sweat dampening the armpits of a dark satin blouse or a musician holding a small white rag to dab the sweat away mid-performance. Sweat as exertion. Sweat as the marginalia of pleasure. Whitney Houston’s bangs drenched in sweat as she performs onstage in South Africa, the strands of hair plastered to her forehead. Baton Rouge summer sweat. Working on the chain gang or in the cotton field sweat. Just got out of the shower, dried off, got dressed, and now I’m sweating again sweat. Under-titty sweat. Under-resourced sweat. No air-conditioning sweat. Mama won’t turn on the air-conditioner even though we have one sweat. Ceiling fan ain’t moving shit around but hot air sweat. Grandma keeps opening and closing that oven sweat. Dinner’s almost ready sweat. Sweat as a through line of and a shorthand for Black life, Black discomfort, and the highest forms of Black pleasure.

While this whole "restorative justice" discourse is imo completely misplaced when talking about Geller, it has raised interesting questions for me. I am going to check out some books on restorative justice if my library has them.
