worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
Most accurate portrait of modern culture currently available
I like Ms Sage (and Ms Evans in whose thread she’s commenting) and want to believe I would hold the line for the reasons she describes. But even more, I want not to have to. That’s why I think we owe it to ourselves to think of and support better candidates than Gavin fucking Newsom.
Jesse Singal: “I don’t understand why all these experts with degrees keep disagreeing with me. So demoralizing. What could the explanation be??”
Don’t make me tap the sign (yet again)

We call this "manufactured consensus".
"I asked Chat GPT and -" ok, I asked the exhumed corpse of Pope Formosus during the Cadaver Synod and he went "... ... ..." and then his jaw fell off and it was still a better answer
This is what I need cis folks to understand.
It's been a decade.
Imagine living TEN FUCKING YEARS watching as a blatant, artificial campaign to erase your personhood, your identity and your safety chugs along, increasing in power every single day, and most people don't care or dismiss it
Don’t spend the precious moments of your life watching an old rapist lie to you on TV tonight, do something healthier like chew on roofing nails
A meme of Alysa Liu based on Da Share Zone reading: JUST WALK OUT work social thing movies home class dentist figure skating too fancy weed store cops it your quick friend ships IF IT SUCKS... HIT DA BRICKS!!! Real winners quit You can leave!! Da Gold Zone
I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…
We named a fleshlight after a war criminal. You're supposed to put your mouth on it
everyone loved the tech industry's free music and friendship machines of 20-30 years ago. it's unclear what could be causing people to feel the opposite about the industry's new racism and insanity machine
SO GOOD! "the idea that my political ideology is synonymous with hating technology is confusing. Every leftist I know has a hard-on for high speed rail or mRNA vaccines. But the “left is missing out” blog positions generative AI as the only technology that matters." -- @xoxogossipgita.bsky.social

A humidifier on the sink in front of a bathroom mirror. The combination of small "on" and "full" lights above a wide curved vent make a pleasant smiling face and on the back of the humidifier, which can be seen in the mirror, another wide curved air vent and the two screws holding it together above it make a horrified face.

No one is saying you have to think AOC would be a good presidential candidate or, worse still, that she's the exact same kind of leftist as you but the tone of coverage is really laying bare how much of the media is run by men who hate younger women they perceive as having notions of themselves
“Wuthering Heights” makes me want to make fanmixes. It made me question everything I know about the novel, which I actually know pretty well. I felt my pre-teen awkward horniness activate for the first time since Jupiter Ascending. What a great film
Mason @realMasonMohon : 1h You have a pride flag in your bio. You obviously think marriage is a term with no actual content that can be applied to anything. No wonder we say you don’t understand marriage Ephraim Stone @TEStoneWrites - ih The rainbow in my bio is a reminder that G-D will never again bring destruction to creation, that His covenants are eternal, that his word is unfailing, and that His gifts to my foremothers and forefathers are everlasting. Mason @realMasonMohon - 23m Apologies for misunderstanding. As I’m sure you know, many others use it to represent something else Ephraim Stone @TEStoneWrites I also suck dick
A colour photo of a quite deformed pepper sitting on a woodgrain counter against a white textured wall. The pepper clearly shows two green legs, a green arm and an orange arm, and the stem cut short in the middle of what looks like a lumpy bowed head. It is instantly recognizable as a dejected human being. "Not sure if I should cook him or ask him what happened." so sad Realistic_Revenue_87 on reddit. Not clear if they're the originator.
me too pepper me too
No new pictures.
Where are you mentally?
Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".
this article’s a psyop, its sole purpose is to convince all writers they have to use AI or else
Hahahaha. Fuck the IOC. We’re always mad at them for shit anyway. Boo him.
USian trans people aren't telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom to cause you distress and despair.
USian trans people are telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom so you don't vote for his transphobic ass in the primaries.
They are giving you actionable information.
