kinda fucked how a full-blown mental breakdown/ugly sobbing crying episode is supposed be like, all good for your soul and whatever but it always comes with insane headache/congestion shit. like yeah i scream-exorcised a rotting part of myself but at what cost.

yeah okay "character whos powers get triggered when theyre extremely angry or annoyed" is cool and all but i will ALWAYS be a sucker for "characters whos powers get triggered by extreme sadness/grief/depression/guilt and their powers are destroying everything around them and they are just sitting in the center of everything, fully disconected from reality, tears dripping down their face, blankly mumbling apologies yet unable to stop the destruction and theyre causing to the people around them"

nothing funnier to me than when AI does math wrong. like I get why it happens, it's a language model that's treating the numbers you feed it as words rather than integers and then giving you an answer based on how those words typically appear in a block of text instead of actually performing a calculation. but the one thing computers are genuinely incredible at. you fucked up a perfectly good calculator is what you did, look at it it's got hallucinations

"you fucked up a perfectly good calculator" ... and text based searching

not to be a killjoy but it's still crazy to me that it's considered mean to be like "maybe you should read / play / watch the source material before creating fanworks and diving into the fandom" bc every time i see somebody going "i havent played disco elysium or know anything about it tbh but uwu here's harry and kim kissing" idk maybe you should engage with it. maybe you should play the anti-capitalist surrealist game where you investigate the murder of a mercenary who led the gang rape of a foreign girl and process that for a bit? and then you can do cutesy mlm or whatever idc. but like at the absolute bare minimum you should understand what the source material involves otherwise we get the phenomenon of people joining a dragon age server and wanting content warnings for like, mage racism. like it's fine to ship and transform the genre into whatever but if you arent comfortable with discussions of the actual source content itself then maybe the fandom isnt for you and a different one is. peace and love.

actual peace and love would involve letting anyone who wants to do things do them, without judgment.

I don't think there is anything unreasonable about the idea that if someone isn't comfortable with actual discussions of the source material they should probably not insert themselves into the fandom. And I struggle to see how this has anything to do with ableism as per your tags.

Given that people who don't know the source material often invade fandom spaces and then get Upset at us for talking about the source material or informing them that no we're talking about actual canon shit and not our headcanons? I think we're allowed to judge folks who don't engage with the media at least a Little before they engage with the fandom.

When someone who isn't in a fandom is yelling at me about how my blorbo is clearly [specific neurodivergence] when they haven't even looked at a screenshot of the game, and refusing to listen to me and calling me ableist when I'm explaining that no blorbo is [OTHER neurodivergencies], we're allowed to judge that someone for things.

When folks are coming into the Murder Rape Incest Fandom and going "hey I don't watch the show because it's all Murder Rape Incest, but the character designs are pretty so can you like. Stop playing with Murder Rape Incest in the Murder Rape Incest fandom and tag it and hide all the stuff that already exists because I don't want to see Murder Rape Incest in the Murder Rape Incest fandom space and also you're terrible people for writing and drawing Murder Rape Incest in the Murder Rape Incest fandom" we're allowed to judge them.

When people are coming into Dragon Age and going "uh hey the core topics and themes of Dragon Age make me really uncomfy can we ALL agree that because I'm here now, we're never going to talk about the Core Topics And Themes Of Dragon Age so I don't have to see it? Or that you'll just all spoiler tag everything forever and then I'll get mad that I'm left out of the conversation because Everyone Needs To Spoil All Talk About The Games?" we're allowed to judge them.

Engage with the media that you claim to love. Sink your teeth into it and feel its juices join with yours. And if you can't do that maybe consider finding a different fandom.

Had a dream where Johnny from “The Devil Went Down To Georgia” came out as a trans woman and the response was so unanimously positive it reversed nearly all of the transphobic bills in the South. She played live in Georgia to an audience of about a third of the US.

Happy late pride month to Joanie, the best that’s ever been 🏳️‍⚧️

Joanie recently changed her name to Jolene because “it’s funnier”, she says

Your work has been a gift to mankind. You shaped the century, and I need you to do it one more time. Society is at a tipping point between order and chaos. Tomorrow morning we’re gonna give it a push. But, if you don’t do your part, I can’t do mine, and HYDRA can’t give the world the freedom it deserves.

“cory booker is not actually accomplishing anything” I need you to stop being a pessimistic hag every second of ur life. u can be disillusioned. u can wish there was more done already. but this is SOMETHING!! he has broken the longest senate speech record and has been standing up for americans (and against a fascist racist oligarchy) for over 25 hours straight. hundreds of millions have and are watching him. HE is the news cycle. he is reading democratic and republican testimonies alike. people are hearing him, whether they chose to or are forced to!!!!!!! will it solve all our problems? no. but it is a Spark that will hopefully catch flame

Also, let's not forget, the record Senator Booker broke was that of Strom Thurmond in 1957, who was trying to filibuster the passage of the Civil Rights Act. A worthwhile historical moment in and of itself to beat that out

it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.
