Trans rights are civil rights. If you aren't willing to die on the hill of trans rights, then you aren't willing to die on the hill of Black rights. Of Jewish rights. Of disabled rights. Of gay rights. Of anyone's rights. Human rights.

Call me Gondorfluid, for the way that I make frequent expeditions to Rohan for trade and diplomacy.

the original art for skullclamp: a robotick needle coming from the base of a creature's neck (Illustrated by Luca Zontini) beneath is the text "BORN TO CLAMP WORLD IS A FUCK Equip Em All 1989 I am sacrifice man 410,757,864,530 DEAD TOKENS"

I've heard of Turkish Star Wars, but where's Turkish Nationalist Star Wars when you need it? Who will tell the tale of Darth Adnan Menderes?

Adding a squeeze of blood orange juice adds some nice acidity. 🤪

A vintage postcard (c. 1920s) of a map of the Americas. It says "Meeting of the Atlantic and Pacific (The Kiss of the Oceans)" in the upper right. The map has two femme faces in profile with long hair on each, meeting right at Panama, their profiles resembling the coastline of southern Central America, as if they're about to kiss.

this too is yuri

Okay this is very cringe and the creepy whiny fash absolutely deserve to get mocked for it for eternity, but much like how Samus was jokingly suggested as trans and we made her ours in response...

We're taking Rosalina too now. Them's the rules.

Whenever anarchism — or any idea more radical than the status quo — gets dismissed as unserious, it's worth remembering the current system runs on things like "we put all the money on a scam machine that tells rich dipshits they're god."

It’s a male loneliness epidemic, but find a lonely man on a dating app and ask him if he’s looking for a relationship, and he’ll say no, just friends with benefits, so you say ok, like we go to the movies sometimes and also have sex and it’s like no, just sex, so you say ok, so we hook up…

This sure makes German's apparent predilicition for extremely long and specific words look more like a preference for less whitespace in a sentence. 🤪

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

guys i like mastodon plenty but i really don’t think it’s a replacement for bluesky, there’s a lot of features i would miss even if it does have a lot that bluesky doesn’t have like blood and thunder, curl of the burl, really the whole crack the skye album is a glaring omission from bsky’s features

that said: I think the "it's not fascism unless they're good at it" brand of analysis probably isn't the move

Endocrine Disruptor, by Uboa from the album Impossible Light

Good morning! Remember to wield the powers of creation and destruction today. You can even do so responsibly if that's your jam.

To be fair, it's specifically romantic and not sexual. 🤪

Homo Superior in the sense that I’m really good at being gay.

That's an unusually specific way of saying that Apple products just work, and that you should give them even more money. 💸

There's a real possibility they'll put the Simpsons in Kingdom Hearts. 🟡

Creativity is a process.

Look at what we could have. look at what our tax dollars could pay for. Instead we’re paying to have ICE pepper spray directly into the air hole of a guy in an inflatable frog costume

marriage is only between

a crying pepe who has fallen and spilled a bunch of fast food, wearing a bunch of liberal clothing and symbols. Above is an image of the Transformer Megatron, who turns into a tank, superimposed over a soviet flag. He is saying "On your feet, comrade! You have nothing to lose but your chains!"

My message to liberals tempted to become doomers:

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

there is nothing worse than a cowardly fascist. stand up and say what you believe with you full chest, worm, lets see that conviction

*afab only housing voice* i can;t just STOP being a Hufflepuff you know

it’s just straightforwardly true that there are people whose bans on here, justified or not, will pour gasoline on what is already an unnecessary multi-day shitshow

so before you hand out one of those bans you should be very sure that ban is correct

"All reactionaries are paper tigers." – Mao Zedong

these days being cancelled is when u get ur successful right wing outlet bought out by paramount and become editor in chief of CBS news, why would woke do this

just stop talking about the "constitutional crisis" as if it means something or anyone is going to do anything about it.

laws are fake.

the constitution was a piece of paper.

trump is a fascist.

all that matters is what they want to do and how we are going to stop them.
