There are at least two threads on the forum active in the past couple of days since 7.3 that are reiterating that this visual noise sucks for A LOT OF PEOPLE, but it'd help to have more voices on them.

2008. A voice emanates from the Grey Body Paint Factory. It says "Sales are way down since the recession." The voice is coming from an elderly executive. He solemnly brandishes a gun in front of other executives and says "gentlemen, it's been an honour." A voice rings out "WAIT! Our junior ad exec came up with an idea." The junior ad exec, holds up a placard displaying one of the trolls from popular webcomic Homestuck.

Saw Mythos Ragnarok the other night with the other half. It was brilliant and a lot of fun. Definitely recommend whether youโ€™re a fan of Norse mythology, wrestling, or just looking for something very different and very fun.

Fuck Harry Potter

Go read Terry Pratchett's Discworld series.

It has wizards in a rich fantasy setting with, tons of humor & heart. It challenges racism & phobic ideologies while being truly inclusive.

I recommend starting with "Guards! Guards!" and continuing through the City Watch series.

Schools in their current form are basically a sort of attempted conversion therapy on neurominority people with all the trauma that entails.

It's absolutely zero surprise that they add to the 'emotional burden' of autistic and ADHD folks, but still good to see it confirmed.

Remember how I said they love squashing genuine moments for rehashed ones that are more about going viral and getting cheap pops. End of Summer Slam Night 2 was also that, but way worse. Bad idea all around.

FUCK, at this point, theyโ€™d be just as well bringing Vince back. ๐Ÿ˜

What bothers me about the Ruse of the Century is in rehashing a moment from years ago (Heist of the Century,) they squashed a genuine moment that has been building up to this. Imagine if the night had ended on that win - a triumph that had been decades in the making.

Anti-Capitalist Resources These are people and projects that have been essential for my own journey of unlearning capitalism.

Organize and fight back, together. The power is in our hands, we just need to claim it. Let this radicalize you rather than lead you to despair:

Itโ€™s not negative to acknowledge that we are disabled. It can be hard to come to terms with, but doing so means we accept our boundaries and limits.

Sometimes, you need a reminder of how positive PROTONs are. Attract a PROTON into your life. Stabilise your online life with a PROTON.

With enough PROTONs, you can be wherever you want to be. I mean, whoever you want to be. Yes, that one.

I hear PROTONs are Very Positive Now.

I know we're upset about itch, but they're not the only ones

Payment processors harassed companies bc of a 1,000 email hate campaign

But we can EASILY top 1,000!

there is no reason to submit to the censorship and othering of adult & queer content lying down, even if it doesn't affect you (yet)! the time to push back is right now, don't let them shift the window on what's "acceptable" again, fuck that. Queer and adult content is part of a healthy internet

We pretend to be fine to make others more comfortable.

We put a smile on like nothingโ€™s wrong.

We hide our pain so as not to worry you.

We do everything behind closed doors so you only see us at our best.

You donโ€™t see 99% of our lives, yet judge us on the 1% you do.

This Disability Pride month, Iโ€™m grateful for the readers who say Who Wants Normal? is helping them feel more valued and confident. This book was never about downplaying inequality but proudly rejecting the shame and stereotypes the non-disabled world forces on us. With jokes.

People have been talking about how dangerous feeding the "censorship is fine when I find something gross" mindset is for so long and now that consequences are catching up, folks are finally realising that this is actually bigger than fandom discourse. We have been saying this for a while!

If youre seeing what theyre doing to sexual self expression online and youre still handwringing over drawings or writing that doesnt even involve meatspace human beings i think you need to stop being a little fucking bitch and grow the fuck up
