On a related note, I'm annoyed at how the for many people, the only response to "someone did something really bad once" seems to be "we can never associate with that person ever again".

Hypothetically, if someone did something that resulted in being "disciplined for sexual violence", and that person does teshuva and genuinely changes their life so that it won't happen again, I don't think it's justice to require them to disclose it unprompted to everyone they work with years later.

The appearance of reason and intelligence is the same thing as reason and intelligence. The appearance of shadows on this cave wall is all of reality

We publish books that both tell the story of the world as it is, & share visions for a better future. With the present so harrowing, it's hard to visualize that a better world is possible. We love books that do that, & that hold within them the joy, love, & delight that exists in our community.

Has anyone ever told Sam Reich that he doesn't have to be like this? He could just interact with his friends in a normal way, instead of whatever THIS is.

Because you see, gender is so naturally ordained that it has to be literally policed.

When Baz Luhrman had the guns say "sword" on the side in Romeo + Juliet, that was the best choice that has been made in any modern adaptation ever.

If you are a Jew and you are horrified by the Knesset's new law allowing Palestinian prisoners to be hanged, good. I really don't know what else to say except to look unflinchingly at what's happening in the West Bank. Pesach is in two days. What kind of Jerusalem do you want a year from now?

Sometimes there are books where the premise pisses me off, or I hate the prose in the Amazon preview, or whatever. I have a hack for that: I read something else.

It's finally up! A collection of links to news articles, interviews, panels, etc for & related to FUoS, sexism, & online harassment in games. FUoS was active more than a decade ago, so it's been an interesting exploration of the discourse from that time fatuglyorslutty.com/links.html

Who wants to see my new favorite breakfast sandwich?
A delicious scrambled-egg grilled-cheese breakfast sandwich.Get like 1 to 1.5 tablespoon of plain cream cheese out of the fridge and let it soften. Crack two eggs in a bowl, add plenty of salt, let sit for ten minutes before whisking. Add fresh-ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, herbs, etc to taste. Get out two slices of american cheese. If you don’t like american cheese, get out some other kind of cheese you like, as long as it is very fast melting and gets creamy when it melts. This is not the time for your favorite aged chedder cheese.
Get two slices of sturdy white bread, put them in a toaster, and pull them out just before they start changing color. We want the LaCroix of toast here; just stiffen them up a bit more than anything. Put them on a plate and let them cool back down slightly and top each slice with your american cheese.
Put a pat of butter in a pan and get it foaming on medium heat. Pour in your whisked eggs and scramble them hard and fast. If it takes more than a minute, your pan wasn’t hot enough. Fold in the softened cream cheese you had out, then scoop them onto your prepared cheese-and-bread. Close up the sandwich and set it by the stove.
Get just a bit more butter in a clean pan over medium-low heat. Just before the butter is going to start foaming, slide in your sandwich and toast until golden brown on both sides. Slice sandwich in half and serve immediately.

Bastila from Kotor in a dialogue conversation. Text at top, "These options seem kind of light side and dark side. What if I don't want to do either of them?" and the bottom says "Say one of these Jedi or Sith things, or fuck off."

the existential terror of when you have an ikea thing and its ability to store all your crap has been maxed out so you go to the website to buy the storage accessory for your ikea thing that you couldn’t afford at the time only to find out that your ikea thing has been discontinued

I spent a couple decades not transitioning because I was like "that seems like so much effort and will it even be worth it? probably not?" before I realized I didn't have to do everything all at once. And I was TODAY YEARS OLD when I realized "hey that sounds like an executive dysfunction issue".

apropos of, well, everything - reposting this one from 2019.
a black and white illustration of two mythological Jewish creatures - the Ziz (giant bird) and Leviathan (giant sea monster) - tearing apart a Nazi swastika flag. Yiddish text overhead reads "mir veln zey iberlebn" ("we will outlive them")

Like many of you, I didn't think this outcome was truly possible. I believed that enough people would pay attention to what's been happening these past several months, and do the right thing. I was wrong.
