using public office to name and shame evil landlords into submission is so cool. i hope democrats learn from him

The battery in my earbuds died, so I got some new ones. And now I have these Gintama ones where Gintoki tells me the status of my earbuds.

America wants to label swathes of human beings just like me and just like you as pornographic, as illegal, as degenerate freaks.

But I'd rather be a freak than a fascist.

Sex workers and pornographers and erotic artists have been warning us about the encroaching tide of puritanical censorship for years, and their concerns have been dismissed because of who they are and what they make. But the tide of fascism is still rising, and this fight was never just about art.

here's some context: that figure is about half of USAID's entire annual budget, on average, from 2001-2024 ($23 billion)

This went from one editor intentionally hiding a black listed writer scandal, to if there are now two you have to assume there are more. And that one editor can't be the only one involved.

I hate having to do this, but the next month is going to be a struggle for me financially and I could use some help. I'm actively looking for a full-time job *on top* of trying to find a second part-time survival job. Bills don't care about how hard the job market is ko-fi.com/hanoodles/go...

“Discussion of gender is not sexualization… [nor making] books available to students that represent the diversity of their experiences. Such an interpretation says far more about the adults and the perspectives they’re applying to books than it does about the books or their intended audiences.”

Yoko Taro writing a new Evangelion is probably the only thing that would make me interested in more Evangelion. I'm glad the people involved also felt this way.
