Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

periodic reminder that there is no such thing as "low" or "high" function, no such thing as "mild" or "severe" autism. it is all a spectrum of symptoms, and these measure are based on how socially acceptable someone's symptoms are.

Once again reiterating to westerners that not every reader in the world has access to libraries. Which is not to defend piracy or imply everyone pirating lacks access. I'm a writer, & do lose sales to piracy, but care more about structural efforts to devalue our labour than individuals pirating.

The writers very obvious very cool and awesome fetishes

AND THAT'S IF YOU'RE LUCKY and they're not just writing the prejudices as factually correct in-universe.

god "fantasy racism" is so tiring. It's such an obsession with taking the "aesthetics" of racism & oppression (e.g. slurs) and divorcing them from the context of real marginalized groups while also sanding them down to the shallowest understanding of marginalization

Please hear me when I say that

1) these anti-medical woo birth movements have been a primary feeder into anti-vaxx eugenic movements

2) they pre-date the age of social media

3) they exist because we have not addressed medical sexism and specifically obstetric violence

Writing again! fighting my adhd claw and fang to get creative work done and succeeding for once
Have some characters whose dynamic I'm really enjoying chewing on. nasty manipulative crime boss and mean stand-offish street witch, lots of themes of disability n' gaze n' entitlement

this is how I feel putting soy sauce on anything with tofu

What progressives won’t say about abortion The sanitised narrative ignores ethical truths

Kathleen Stock has written an article against "abortion permissiveness". She claims abortion requires "justification" saying the state should limit "unacceptable decision-making" by women about their own bodies.

This is who anti-trans activists proclaim as the feminist thought leaders of our time.

So many people are self sabotaging by deskilling via this nonsense right now. Want an edge in 2027? Don’t build reliance on bad tools into your process in 2025.

This illustration is about trans men. It is supposed to be how trans men are viewed as a corruption of "femininity" :p it is about rejecting ascribed, coerced divinity and embracing what is human, the right to change your own self. :]

The Iconoclasm

this should put the fear into anyone who sells anything even vaguely NSFW on the internet. Ana Valens has been DEBANKED because of her activism about paypro censorship - as in the kind of thing they do to international drug dealers. they have flagged her BANK ACCOUNT. for doing giantess/vore vtubing

Some abled parents of disabled people are the most violent ableists. They use their children as tools to demonstrate their heroism in shouldering the burden of taking care of a disabled person, think they’re incapable of ableism, and say the experience of a caretaker is the same as being disabled.

see also: the men who can’t let their female mentee outshine them, which results in a need to constantly talk her down, talk over her, slander her reputation, and minimize her in every way, with the hope that the woman will eventually either give up and leave academia or accept her “lesser” status

It's a great cosmic joke that neurodivergence both runs in families and gets diagnosed based on parent reports. I was diagnosed at 30 because a man who has eaten potatoes every day for 57 years and a woman who collects loose buttons decided I was a perfectly normal child.

Also, when you get your library to buy my book, it's on your library's shelves. A hundred extra people might lay eyes on it a week, in person, and pick it up on a whim. How many books that you love have you stumbled across just because you liked the cover or saw it in a library display?

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

Thinking about this a lot
Is it possible to just make a game but not have a fucking discord for it or anything that draws attention to u as the creator lol

a pencil drawing recreating the ending of drakengard's ending E where there is a gigantic woman made of salt towering over a grey tokyo. also banjo and kazooie are there and kazooie is asking if this is the land of the gods.

Marriage equality does not exist for everyone until disabled people can marry without losing their benefits.

Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children.

It’s all smoke and mirrors to allow the real predators to roam free.

so many people are lending a hand to fascists when they police each other on "acceptable" nsfw content and get too scared to stand up for sw'ers and artists when the worst thay could happen to them is get called problematic by other puritans

Two young men embracing in bed in the middle ofna steampunk-y cluttered room. A fan, dials, books, calendars.. a patchwork blanket and pillows..

Happy first day of transgender awareness week. I am an indigenous isneg-hiligaynon trans man. And I like drawing trans guys. All I want is for you guys to look at my art.

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY
