How are you supposed to explain to people how this entire social, political, and economic reality is entirely downstream from anime getting banned on some dipshit's forum 25ish years ago

This sucks. Oddnon was a real gem. While sick, while suffering, they were always there for creators; fundraising, encouraging, sharing, and apparently listening and holding space and consoling and yet more than I knew. The Oddnon I did know was a welcome brightness at premieres. One I will miss.

You either live in a democracy, in which case you, as citizens, are responsible for the actions of your democratically elected leaders...or you have no choice in who gets elected, in which case you don't live in a democracy and you should definitely do something about that.
The world is sick of hearing 350 million Americans say they're helpless and nothing is their fault

Better a Pig Than a Fascist
@pillarofgarbage.bsky.social is always brilliant, but this was a standout for sure this year because of the way it connects so many things to make a point about fascist obsessions with aesthetics and why AI appeals to them so much
