the most exciting stories involving the weight of politics and history feature at the heart of their narratives a cast of deeply traumatized women with incomprehensible romantic & sexual tension

People are like "be careful of that trans woman, she was socialised male so she's dangerous" and then you look at her and see the most timid creature in the world who has never heard "I love you" from someone who didn't hurt her

Repost if $30k would change your life right now

Matt Darling@besttrousers.bsky.social

I don't think $30k is a life-changing amount of money. Median American born in 1980 will have $2m in income in their lifetime. It's a 1% increase in earnings.

the cursed dress is mostly normal, aside from the prodigious poof and the can-never-take-off thing, so long as you don't go investigating it too closely. yeah, your boobs squish like polyfil, and your hands fill out the silk gloves a bit too perfectly, but the problems start when you lift the hem.

Every inch of america is stolen land and red with our blood. Use indigenous people's day to recognize that we're still here. Celebrate and protect the life still here. Speak up for your neighbors. Work on building kinship and relations to work for a better future.

not only was she one of the first, she is credited for literally coining the phrase "software engineer". photos like these inspired me so much when I was in school!

If you're a fan of a big media property, a really dedicated and invested fan, you have to learn to respond to criticism of that thing in a calm and reasonable manner rather than as a personal attack. In fact, you should learn to do the criticism yourself, without feeling embarrassed for liking it.

my stance on fantasy vs sci-fi is that i think these are aesthetic labels that have gotten so broad that they're barely informative at all. the real slop genre is orc fiction. if there's an archetypal "orc species," a nuance-free inherently evil group of morally uncomplicated enemies, it's slop.

one of the worst and most terrifying pieces of information that ive learned is that in order to make friends you kind of have to be annoying to people. and if they like it thenn you can be friends. friendship is just when you both like when the other one is annoying
