eh, I'll live -- just boils over on occasion

we are actually living in an Onion article

When you praise your favourite comic but only single out the writer, maybe don’t do that because a comic only works if the art and lettering works, too.

okay, had to get that out of my system

I can manage a lot of my spectrum shit, but the part of me that (sometimes unfairly) freaks out over inaccuracies that are easily disprovable is a real pain to wrestle down 💀

(yeah, I won't lie, I lost my temper with that one yesterday -- like legit almost crashed out

and it's ten times harder bc they don't have a phone or computer to actually like . . . fact check shit

they think The News is The News)

I love them but I srsly want to run around the yard screaming some days bc even if I tell them what bullshit any given story is, they'll forget what I said in 10-45 minutes

the internet has *always* had a problem of hate-sharing, and if we want to get out of this, we gotta be equally committed to sharing good work and supporting the people who make it

Iranian missiles cannot reach the U.S. not by nearly 10,000 miles. So when she says they are threatening lives in the U.S. would love for press to point this out.

Also, this bitch. WTF.

It’s very hard to pick a single passage to give you a sense of just how fucked up this is.

*sigh* the dream

It's so nice to read a book written 25 years ago featuring a truly flawed and reprehensible protagonist knowing the author never had to come online and spoon feed the story to readers incapable of not treating fiction like a book of manners

same with the washing machine whose appetite for socks is insatiable

A man asked me last night what publishing needs to do for literary fiction to begin appealing to men again. I said, as nicely as I could, that, with over 2,000 books published every Tuesday, of which many would appeal to men, it’s not a publishing problem, it’s a men problem.

Yep. Ford represented a very specific kind of Being Cool By Being A Dipshit that used to be right at the heart of American pop-culture depictions of masculinity.

Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart both excelled at it.

imagine even thinking about using ai when a living breathing master of the craft is putting his knowledge on youtube for free

1 Inquiry for New York Times Good afternoon, My name is [REDACTED] and l am a reporter for the New York Times. I am researching how much money the Palestinian diaspora community has sent to support Gazan families since the war in Gaza began. Does your team track this figure? I really appreciate it. With gratitude, [REDACTED]

Palestine Diaspora Movement Hello [REDACTED] We do not collaborate with The New York Times. Your email asks about money sent to Gazan families "since the war in Gaza began." Let us first correct the premise. This is not a war. It is a genocide. Calling it a war is part of the problem. It obscures the reality of a colonized people being massacred by a military machine backed by the United States and defended, sanitized, and rhetorically softened by institutions like yours. The New York Times has spent far too long parroting Zionist propaganda and laundering Israeli state narratives while Palestinians bury their dead. That kind of coverage does not merely misinform. It helps create the political climate in which Palestinian slaughter becomes explainable, defensible, and forgettable. So no, we will not be sharing any figures, internal data, or community information with a paper that has so thoroughly damaged its credibility on Palestine. Quite frankly, we would rather chew jeans than help The New York Times extract from our community while continuing to fail it. Do not contact us again for this purpose, The Palestine Diaspora Movement Team

As an agent who represented majority marginalized authors for 8+ years, I cosign this conclusion. It’s BEEN true. It’s also soul-crushing and maddening, because even the most tenacious advocates can’t explain to their clients why they keep being rejected for no clear, skill-based or sensible reason.

Y'all honestly do not realize HOW little we actually know about the NA anime fandom and industry's history at this point. Many of our "Word of God" online sources are packed with inaccurate release dates and inaccurate details, and detailed info is often buried in dead Usenet chatter.

It's fucked.

FFS, it’s killing people, driving them from their homes, adding to the enormous debt we owe nature, and literally driving people insane. Unless it’s lifesaving, I don’t want to hear it.

Folks flying in for ECCC: If you *can* take the light rail from SeaTac, I strongly recommend you do. The main route into Seattle, I-5, is operating at reduced capacity while undergoing repairs, so traffic is gnarly and heavy delays are likely going by car.
