okay but if you ever see a male creative who had a string of great work and then everything else he did was dogshit, go to the "personal life" part of his wikipedia and look at his relationships. you'll either find a major tragedy he didn't recover from (completely understandable) or, more likely, there was a woman in his life doing uncredited shit editing his stuff or contributing generally and she's not there anymore.

I told a friend about this phenomenon in literature and he called me weeks later like, I remembered what you said about women doing uncredited work when tim burton came up. he made a string of bangers then everything else just was nowhere near as good. the timeline matches perfectly to when he was with this german visual artist (lena gieseke). he's done some good work in collaboration, but if things were dug into I suspect we would find she did a lot more than people realise.

so yeah whenever you look around like wow women didn't work in history, or, women aren't auteurs, or, there just aren't as many great female writers - societal reasons for that aside, half the time they absolutely did.

I'm not allowed to play paladin with one of my playgroups anymore, because the last time I did, one of the rogues in my party decided kill a townsperson in front of me "just to see what would happen," and the moment she did I used a smite evil and killed her instantly. Everyone else (except the DM) thought it was a dick move that I basically forced her to roll an entirely new character after one night.

That's the only proper way to play a paladin.

You pick a fight, you get the smite.

"it's what my character would do" says the rogue.

"samesys!" Says the paladin, cheerfully rolling a nat 20 smite to destroy the rogue.

can somebody edit a mario cap onto that picture of an fbi agent on a laptop

boycott is when you buy product but a week later instead of the instant you can

“National teacher shortage” is a fun way of saying that the USA has made a passion driven job so ungodly inhospitable that even people who “just care about teaching, not the money” don’t even care about teaching anymore.

you mean i could make less at school than at mcdonalds while working 60+ hours a werk and being expected to take a bullet any minute and contracting every disease ever and still not be able to cover my bills june-september while parents and politicians blame me for why their kids are gay

First and foremost fallen london is the weirdest dress up game in the world, where every given activity requires 2-3 magical girl style transformations to best complete

the tags really make this one, i am chortling

babe wake up! new booktok nsfw censorship term just dropped

what if I couldn't take it anymore?

Reminder to just say masturbation, sex, vagina, penis, menstruation, fuck, death, kill, boobs, dyke, faggot, etc. like a real adult.

reminder to everyone who doesnt use tiktok: you dont actually get banned for saying these words, people do this to evade others' tag blockers.

a lot of users DONT want to see this kind of post, so people censor and change words around to get put on peoples "for you" page even if they have been marked as "not interested". this is part of why it can get really difficult to find posts you actually like on tiktok, is because the algorithm is really bad at guessing that these posts are not actually about "self care". the creators of these posts are hoping they get forced in front of people who want to see something else.

Oh that's way worse than what I'd been led to believe was happening

...you mean it's just a bunch of clout chasing with no respect for others' boundaries??? 0.o

still thinking about "decolonising" missionary work.

the way you decolonise missionary work is by not doing missionary work

the way you decolonise missionaries is like this:

"but it's part of my religion to evangelise"

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 infinite jaguar attack

"but we need to go to Ethiopia (one of the oldest christian countries in the world) to make them the right kind of christian!"

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆

jaguars

"but..."

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 jaguars

"but missionaries bring schools and hospitals to poor countries" that's called humanitarian aid and trying to use humanitarian aid to get religious converts is actually SUPER fucked! hope this helps 🐆🐆🐆

Honestly I’d be more inclined to play Stardew Valley if it was about a depressed cop trying to solve a murder whilst navigating the politics of a mass strike and the fallout of counter revolution

*LOUD THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE*

GOOD.

I don't even like her music but christ liberals are so vile to Chappelle Roan. People are calling her sexuality into question because she didn't want to fucking endorse Kamala.

God forbid a lesbian not want to endorse a party that was committing genocide and sweeps trans people under the rug when it's politically convenient

"doesn't this charater under insane stress going through extremely traumatic events realize how inconvenient their irrational emotional reactions are to the people around them?" well, see, you're not gonna believe this, but the thing is,

shinji ikari could have just locked in

i was never into f1nnster, but i do occasionally think about how QUICK people went from posting about her pretty regularly to never posting about her again is crazy

like its a great case study in the difference between a cis guy doing "5D gender chess" v. that same person after coming out as some flavor of trans. fucking night and day.

I think this has been posted on here before but this one always makes me laugh

For those not in on the joke. The Soviets were considered an Allied nation during wwii.

Only two nations deployed troops against the Soviets, and those were Nazi Germany and Fascist Spain.
