This song feels incredibly relevant today.

a screenshot of the music video Planet of the Bass, it has a man in a white outfit and angel wings, a woman in a robe and a crown, the caption reads "Women are my favorite guy"

happy international women's day to all my international women

so, roller derby (WFTDA vs MRDA)

not a romance reader, but this article got me wondering how much reading sporking blogs mocking badfic with changing 1st person narrations while also falling in love with asoiaf's changing 3rd person limited (of opposing characters even!) as a teen shaped me and my preferences

a new drawing of edelgard!? in 2026!! more likely than you think! (i love she)

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

The same is true of Black people, disabled people, neurodivergent people, brown people, like whatever. Men need to know how much better their lives would be with platonic women as friends as well. People from walks of life see in colors you can't. You are enriched by everyone different.

I wish I knew the right combination of words to convince people who don't yet realize it that knowing and being friends with lots of trans people makes your life immeasurably better. I know we're dealing with fear and bigotry here tho so; right words would likely have to be some kind of magic spell.

Being nice to trans people really did turn out to be a load bearing part of liberal democracy ey

i really can not emphasize enough that the most materially impactful thing you can do for trans people right now is hire them.

it cannot be emphasised enough that what the BBC did at the BAFTAs is literally deliberately create a culture war flashpoint

Also Eve by Cat Bohannon, it's more evolutionary biology than psychology, but it also blasts the "evolutionary" stereotypes of how women and men supposedly are and always have been

"The robot wife is the final solution to the problem of female humanity. She has the appearance of a person. She performs all the functions of a person, but has no self that might conflict with her role. 50 years later, the tech industry actually built Stepford. They just called it something else."

so, roller derby

The way people talk about people who have been traumatised and victimised by religion and religious institutions is so fucked up.

An eternal infantilisation as online edgelords who simply want to dunk on the noble, peaceful religious masses, as though we weren't raised and abused by them!

too much posting on this website about posting on websites. you should be posting about the extra Cat that only appears to you during your tenth viewing of CATS (2019)

current polish president (MAGA's #1 dickrider) got caught popping a pouch live during a tv presidential debate and it clearly didnt impede his voting win. its not just the tech bros and not just the usa, we are all cooked

i’ve said this before, but using linux is the closest we can currently get to that feeling of “going on the computer” from the 90s. 😌

Doing things the "right" way, burning out and then realizing there is another option, coming back and winning it all with no fucks given? Yes please tell me that story forever.

Almost like feeling the joy in tech is closely related to who owns the means of production, in 19th century and now!

I'm a techie and fiber artist and besides hand knitting I love people publishing 3d printed models for knitting machines (I printed a sock machine already), looms, e-spinners, you name it. The same machines OG luddites wrecked. But I'd gladly help with wrecking Zara or SheIn sweatshop infrastructure

women can do anything including apparently being the ones to help newcomers enough to know how to switch to linux

I'm supper happy that our reigning Olympic champ is a skater who un-retired under presumption she'd have creative control over her training, programs and packaging (as opposed to fulfilling dad's and coaches requests) and now she's a joyous alt girl with medal-worthy consistency and nerves to boot

Catholicism/Christianity as I’ve experienced it is basically scolding all the way down

this is literally the beginning of but I'm a cheerleader, with the family deciding the MC is a lesbian because she's, among other things, a vegetarian. the more things (politicizing queerness AND eating habits) change, the more they stay the same

Martin Scorsese saying Now, this is a film that you show to someone you care about as a way of possibly trying to say something that you can't put into words.

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE. SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS. THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

the Black Panthers were right
