AUTOPRAXIS is a transfem-centric Homestuck fancomic about 6 young adults struggling to coordinate a Sburb session. It has just entered ACT 3 and updates regularly, with over 900 pages less than a year from its start date!

I cannot trust the artistic opinions of anybody who can't frankly admit that the vast majority of whatever's produced in their chosen medium (books, film, etc) is unsalvageable pigslop. But also that dogshit amateur art is critical for said medium. AND that pigslop and amateur dogshit is different

Publishing is largely a machine cranking out entire forests' worth of garbage not worth reading. AND your unedited, barely-coherent 500k word Super Smash Bros fanfiction is vital for the soul to flourish. There is no contradiction here

one thing that gets very easy to spot with "gender neutral language" is (especially as a trans woman) you only get gender neutral language thrown your way.

everyone else is guys and girls, when you're around it's "folk" or something dumb like "campers". they're not changing how they speak to be gender neutral, they're only doing that when you're around. because you're not allowed to be in a group as "girls". you're "everyone"

a significant portion of bad AI discourse happens because people are not sufficiently rigorous in disambiguating "AI", the cultural object into which the bourgeoisie have deposited all their hopes and dreams for a world where they no longer depend upon the proletariat, and which mostly serves the practical purpose of driving investment, with Neural Networks/Large Language Models, the technologies that exist in real life with actual use cases and actual limitations--or indeed in realizing that such a disambiguation is necessary

Some of y'all gotta uncouple your personal self worth from your thought patterns. Me saying something is a reactionary thought pattern and urging you to examine it is not me personally calling you a fascist lmao. Everyone has thought patterns and some of them are going to be reactionary since yknow. We live in a society etc etc

Yeah like. that's not the same thing. we don't do thought crimes here. All it means is, if it hadn't occurred to you that these patterns might be reactionary or sexist or what have you, it's an opportunity to analyze that and see things from a new perspective

This is low-key another reason why callout culture sucks cause without the ability to learn from your mistakes there's much more incentive to deny them. It's okay to fuck up and need to reassess stuff. I'm not a fucking cop. I'm not gonna sit here and condemn you to the dungeon because you said something stupid.

the nigel farage plane crash incident is still one of the funniest things to happen to a politician

the fact he was still wearing that ridiculous ribbon

Gnome eminem: just cos I'm gnomey don't mean you know me. Don't call me homie. In fact you can blow me. Since I started seeing lots of gnomes rapping, halvling MCs who don't know what's happening, half-foots who need a half-hand smacking, go back to the shire and ask bilbo baggins. [beat changes] Haley I'm sorry that I drank your potion

Nobody falls in love anymore. It's all red flags and do you go to therapy. How about do you have a burning passion in your soul and a little bit of madness.
