This is your occasional reminder that, if you like Neil Gaiman's stuff, but can't bring yourself to like it anymore for justifiable reasons, Tanith Lee is the author he is credibly accused of extensively cribbing from, and her work is on Audible, and AMAZING.

listen, shout out to trans people. you're doing the lord's work and i appreciate you all

the guy from monkey island is saying to the girl from monkey island: Stop whispering "estrogen could save you." I don't care how soft my skin could be. I have chosen the pirate life. Respect my choice.

Stall bathroom graffiti in a gay bar that says "Suck a girls dick and take her to Taco Bell"

I love my people so much

it's because the rot has seeped into the Dutch culture and peoples as a whole, making it hard to tell what's racist and what's just, you know, normal Dutchness

@Ilyndseybelle this is what 50 bucks means to a small business. $50 is nothing to a billion dollar company. start shopping small @meownikaa whoever just placed a $50+ order in my shop, thank you so much that literally just paid for half of my groceries tomorrow

Shopping small is meaningful!

so this one hit me with some Feels

all I can tell you is that I told myself that a lot, too, and then it turned out I was wrong

Not gonna BS you, not gonna tell you everything's gonna be okay or whatever, just... shit actually does change when you give it time

giving it time hurts and sucks and is no fun... but it works

ahhh, the deep deep depression, okay

last shot, then, this was the hail mary that got me through some tough nights

...for all you know, tomorrow is when it's gonna start to get better so if you end it today you're gonna feel REAL STUPID

...yes I am saying FOMO can be a reason to live

I know this problem, the "no, no, dig UP, stupid"

ahh, see, I have the "spite is easy, actually" autism

okay

in that case, my other go-to was "not everyone is awful. There are some good people. And they'd be mad if I wasn't here. And for all the ways I feel shitty right now, I don't want to be responsible for that."

...I'm not angry at this joke but I am angry at how much I like it

I just want some of these fucking people to face real consequences

spite

some days, when I can't seem to find the motivation, I think of all the people who have made me wanna die and I drag myself out of bed because FUCK THOSE PEOPLE THEY DON'T GET TO WIN.

...maybe not the healthiest option, but it works

when you grow up around something and it's "normal," it takes some extra work sometimes to break free of that conditioning

like, there's no way around it, it's harder to say "this tradition sucks and should be abolished" when you remember your Grandma happily explaining it to you when you were 7

the thing people tend to forget about the restaurant industry is that a sizable portion of almost every kitchen staff has a record or has been in rehab

they can be allies

it really feels like a fantasy

Jazz

your commitment to making this place more Interesting amazes me

I want you to consider what the average American knows about crypto

then I want you to remember that once upon a time, electricity was as new and weird to people as crypto

of COURSE some idiot went "I love my hairdryer, lemme clean it in the bathtub"

it's 1800s "all my apes gone"

hey, I respect it

I'm just saying in general, you can't be all "who could possibly need directions for this?!?" because the whole reason those directions exist is because someone needed them once

Even the hypothetical "good billionaire," if such a thing could exist, would still be a terrible person to take political cues from, because their wealth and privilege insulates them from having actual, practical understanding of the needs of the vast majority of the American electorate

just sayin'

Every warning label or set of directions exists because someone, somewhere, didn't have them and suffered as a result

Just because you aren't that dumb, that doesn't mean no one has ever been that dumb - or will be again

Neil Cicierega Tumblr. ARIEL NEEDS LEGS I was gonna make Emmy draw this but she said no so I drew it myself. I've never drawn a comic before! edit: WATCH IN MOTION COMIC FORM

ever

vote for Gavin Newsom

I loved this film immensely in ways I don't know how to put into words

Thanks, Jerry! You’re doing, you know, the usual, too

For the curious: the Coldening is kinda like the Quickening except instead of cutting someone’s head off and gaining their power you;re huddling together with them to share warmth

So nothing like the Quickening really

Except for the implied eroticism
