it LOOKs like i am eating snacks 24/7 bc i am bad at eating or whatever people say, but you see, its actually leftist praxis to eat snacks you see, they are vegan and explicitly without child labour by using chocolate alternatives. i need support them to show people (me) want that!

Current mood

"She called me fat. Am I fat?" "Just be a lesbian. Lesbians love fat" - two like 13 year old girls at this seattle video store

not quite sure why i want to learn the Nej for my tribute album to Abaris the Hyperborean when Hyperborea was speculated to be north of greece, not south (and certainly not in egypt) but lets just say i'm cooking with this idea. still need to find out if i'm cooking smth good or not lol

Happy International Artist's Day!

please keep reposting i haven't gotten any new money since the last update 🥺

As a culture, we have to get a lot more comfortable saying yeah it sucks for you that you’re uncomfortable and that is a personal problem that you personally are gonna have to solve. And saying it to cis white women specifically.

i don't think you should be super vocal about youthlib if you never talk to anyone under 18. for the same reason i'm suspicious of "allies" that never talk to any queer people.

Thank you to the driver of this Ford Explorer for making my day.

the mere etymology of the term "minor" is inherently derogatory. so-called "minors" are considered a lesser category of person, seen as lower beings of less importance and with less rights. to achieve a true liberation of the youth, the category of "minor" needs to be completely abolished.

mostly because i wanna sell my game but wanna make the system/engine itself be creative commons i'm spending too much time on developing my system to gatekeep it by attaching it to a game that may be maybe enjoyed by two or three people at most

my system I develop actually does have the community/settlement building as a main focus its too early to say smth more specific about how it will be released, but there is most probably going to be a standalone version without a game attached to it

It's a choice (a bad one) to tell readers this driver "passed too close to cyclists" when there's video evidence showing he drove his car into them, made contact and hurt someone. Fellow journalists: we can explore the nuances of punishment for drivers without obfuscating their dangerous behavior.

hey, saying "if you're doing that you will get hurt" instead of "might get hurt" don't do that kids can understand uncertainty (well, to the extent anyone can) leaning back in a chair or crossing the road without looking is not the same as stabbing a knife through your hand.

"You need to hide any interest in 'dark' things or adults will think you're dangerous and act accordingly" is an INCREDIBLY damaging thing to teach a kid.

Side note: this is partly why I dislike the horror movie trope of Creepy Child Drawings™️ as shorthand for that kid being evil or under the influence of some evil being or force

sex offender registration is supposed to prevent child rape. functionally, what it appears to do is create a group of children it's super easy to rape. and kids are on these lists for things like pulling off a classmate's pants because they thought it was funny and didn't understand the harm

call her remote code execution the way a single text from her has me doing things i shouldnt

Everyone always says teenagers are annoying, but I feel like they're not really any more so than people overall. Adults are, if anything, just better at being socially acceptable kinds of annoying, including but not limited to complaining about how teens are annoying all the time.

Trans people are being attacked globally, and you call us standing up for our rights "purity politics" get a fucken grip anyone who calls a trans woman a "biological male" is no ally of ours. THIS is the side they are on.

I feel like when people talk about the superiority of man made art over AI slop they tend to focus too much on the mystic of it and not enough on the fact that for a lot of artists the process is made up of a long series of complex and meaningful deecisions that a robot sucks at making.

often feel like i really wanna watch all the b&w movies used in the Sugarbread music video by Soap&Skin. The clips seem intriguing. Already watched La Antena and I'm sure one day I gonna finally end up watching Metropolis lol. But getting a full list of movies used seems quite hard

People are discussing how Halloween candy is so terrible these days. A reminder that alot of the candy we eat is made with women’s prison labor. Russell Stover’s factory in Kansas busses in 150 women a day via a convict leasing program to staff their candy factory.

I'm not saying it was a quest hook, I'm just saying I'd feel pretty stupid if I ignored it and missed the beginning of my adventure.

sometimes the stuff found on tumblr is too good to not share elsewhere too, bc that person is 100% right

sometimes i am reminded of how anti-child the kidlit and teen comics people here on bsky are and then i kinda die a bit inside again. by now i think i blocked almost the entirety of them but it still makes me furious to even know they exist :c

what a hell of a take, really. listen here, grownie. you write good stuff for children because children deserve good stuff too. the idea that not caring for a child's wellbeing is only bad because it harms a potential future adult is... wow.
