I'm reclaiming this episode for the transsexuals. Cis people you aren't allowed to watch The X-Files S1E14, "Gender Bender"—an episode that genuinely makes you wonder if someone misheard "rumspringa" as "The Cum Spring" and went with that, Phantom Tollbooth-style—anymore. It's just for us.

I'm increasingly frustrated that people who are anti-AI aren't being taken seriously, and taking a page out of my thoughts on why the anti-trans backlash got as far as it did I'm starting to think the anti-AI side isn't extreme enough.

I don't deny that dogs can sometimes be quite lovely but what I will say is I don't trust their opinions. If a cat recommended me an album it had bought, I'd totally check it out. If a dog did the same, I'd promise to listen to the album, out of politeness, with no intention of actually doing so

One of the most charming things to me about Star Trek TOS is how the theme song sounds like it was composed by someone on a deadline w/ zero briefing as to genre. Is it a space adventure? Probably! But also a sitcom...? Possibly, better safe than sorry. A game show...? *Elijah Wood voice* MAYbe!

Affirmation Coyote remembers, when their years were young, the campfire tales told by the first humans to cross the land bridge from Siberia. Stories of the things that lurked in the places under the retreating glaciers. Affirmation Coyote will not repeat them.

"Guy missing the point" meme about the movie "The Ritual"

Received point: Men's gendered refusal to confront their trauma and insecurities makes masculinity a brittle and isolating lifeway. Unable to face themselves, men
cannot protect others.

Intended point: the vibes in Sweden are fucking OFF

Jeff Vandermeer was right about this book. Really well done, with layers of irony, a feeling of mounting doom, and some nice weird-around-the-edges touches. Existential class-conscious horror that absolutely nails the "Gothic" part.

Hi! I'm Yri (pronounced like 'eerie'). I write fantasy and sci fi stories + dabble in horror. My current big project is an urban fantasy novel about punks and labyrinths and a game almost but not entirely unlike Go. I have a lot of favorite monsters, but Jean Jacket from "NOPE" came to mind first.

If someone is doing real damage and demonstrates a sustained lack of interest in accounting for it then, imo, the time for talking about “accountability” is over. Then it’s time for talking about how to best attack and undermine their power to do that damage. Changing their heart is not a factor.
