We could use more money to get a Switch 2 to replace our Switch that has issues, or to help pay off debts, or both.

bappy saturday day

can we please acknowledge that tma/tme is a meaningful distinction? a justice of the US supreme court is openly saying that it's legal to discriminate against trans women because the same laws do not target trans men. the transmisogyny is what makes it permissible. your transphobia is fine as long as it has carveouts for men.

"But why do you need to coercively *force* a gender on him"

Girl where do you think the 'him' came from in the first place

Pupys donot clebrate holidays for peopls pupies have own holiiday like Puppy day on January 14th

Youjust missed it

No Patrick roleplaying with another consenting adult is not abusive.

"creep" by radiohead is incredibly transbian pilled and i think its positively disgraceful that it was written and sung by a man

"i wish i were special" "i dont care if it hurts [...] i want a perfect body" "i[ feel like] a creep, i[ feel like] a weirdo" "i dont belong here, what am i doing here" COME ON.

thankfully, i have some plans.

hate when people say “humans in the marvel universe have a right to be mutantphobic because mutants pose an actual danger!” If you live in the marvel universe you are more likely to be killed by any given PhD candidate in spandex than a mutant Im being so fr

"Why do you want your favorite characters to be predators" implies I want them built like that. No I want this to be the first ever time they're experiencing these feelings but the love and lust is so powerful it's pushing the boundary of social norms and ethics. I want them confused and guilty and squirming about it. Because this isn't them but fuck if that kid isn't the exception.

🐭 Tag yourself. This doll is that kid.

Something so disgusting about how the original Haitian zombie folklore is "the zombies are victims of a sorcerer who exploits them as slaves" and then modern zombie media is "the zombies just appear from an infection that turns Real People into a rampaging horde serving no other purpose than to threaten Civilization" like.

The Haitian zombie is very clearly metaphorical for the very real horrors of slavery, while the viral zombie is fundamentally about "what if there was a type of guy it was completely okay to kill and you got to exist in a survivalist fantasy as a Badass, also when infrastructure collapses it's every man for himself and altruism goes away"

And isn't it super interesting to think about that in the context of historical US-Haiti relations?

Also there's many of them and they spread and become innumerable hordes who invade your town but also you can kill hundreds of them because they're individually weak and stupid

A completely disorganized horde of weak, uncoordinated, literally feral humans that a Real Badass can take out by the thousands, but they somehow overwhelm all the regular people and cause the collapse of society. It's up to the Great Men to fix the problem. This totally isn't a fascist fever dream.

tpwrtrmnky when any trope exists: aight mate break out the red string we gonna go connecting some totally unrelated dots about racism

Ah yes, tropes, famously immutable cultural elements that can never contain any ideas rooted in how popular works have shaped them over time. My bad, post cancelled, never mind that whole thing about taking an element of folklore from its original context and turning it into something with an entirely separate meaning!

See also: a lot of older Zombie media within the modern Zombie concept, even as recently as 28 Days Later (but super not the sequels), being highly suspicious of those who are too eager to do violence, while most modern media tends to glorify Those Eager To Do Violence for The Right Reasons (usually protecting those considered valuable) and treats them as necessary not only against zombies but Those Eager To Do Violence for The Wrong Reasons. (Usually those who previously existed outside prior social order or in opposition to it) Dunno, just feels related to the latent and not-so-latent racism of the concept and the latent racism becoming more active.

"How do you get a person to stop their bad behavior and instead do good" and "what is the morally righteous punishment for a person's bad behavior" continue to be separate questions forever and ever and ever and ever.

You're not adding something useful to a discussion of the first one when you talk about what the bad person deserves.

of all the greatest words of tongue and pen none have been sadder than these: total 5e conversion

i hate to put specific projects on blast but i do need to note that what inspired this was a gundam full 5e conversion where newtypes were reskinned clerics and they still had turn undead (now called turn cyber newtype)

{Four} That's... That's not how anything works???? At least some of my sisters are cyber newtypes and I'm pretty sure they were already gay when I met them.

that empathy shit sounds crazy you're telling me y'all just kinda get sad from other people being sad like damn how does that work are they like giving off radiation

Hey it just took a quick Google search to debunk this - there's other things to worry about at the moment without spreading misinformation on Democratic lawmakers.

What's going on here (I think) is a difference of opinion among Congressional Democrats about how to respond to the ICE situation, stripped of context--here is an informative article.

To start, the current short-term spending bill (from the shutdown) expires January 30. This means that Democrats in Congress can once again gain some leverage by threatening and/or enacting a shutdown.

A few would like to use that leverage to attempt to actually Defund ICE--giving them no additional funding, and even taking back some of what Trump gave them in the "One Big Beautiful Bill." Republicans only need to get a few Democrats to cross the line in order to pass a budget, and Democrats have already backed down once, so this would be...something of a long shot, to put it mildly.

The other idea is for Democrats to indicate that they'll accept a bill that funds ICE at somewhere around the normal level, but only on the condition that money come with string attached, requiring ICE to operate within the rule of law. Some versions of this plan also propose limiting the ability of ICE officers to carry firearms.

This is obviously a much less ambitious proposal, and could certainly be criticized as being inadequate to the moment, but it's also a much lighter lift to get all Congressional Democrats to stand united on something like this, and it also puts Republicans in a more difficult rhetorical position if it comes to a shutdown: instead of Democrats having to make the case to the public for why ICE needs to go, Republicans have to try to explain why they are so firmly against the idea that maybe ICE shouldn't be allowed to shoot people in the street for giving them back-chat.

And DeLauro is working for the smaller, more achieveable goal of a funding bill that put some kind of limts on ICE, rather than the big, pie-in-the-sky goal of cutting it off at the knees. And that's certainly something that we can question and criticize--but we should be honest about what we're criticizing.

In my view, the moderate Democratic proposals are pretty disappointing. Insufficient. Piss-poor, you might say. But the amount of leverage that Democrats actually have in Congress is also piss-poor, so the options are either use it all in a doomed symbolic gesture, or apply it to some inadequate partial measure that might at least serve as a strip of grippy tape in the way of our country's rapid slide into the third reich.

That's all well and good but the agencies and executives involved have proven, again and again, that guardrails and conditions arent real in any way that matters. ICE will take the money, ignore the strictures, and democrat governors and mayors will be too afraid of either starting a civil war or openly losing control of their police and national guard to do anything concrete about it.

The only thing that's even possibly enforceable, and therefore the only thing that's real, is how much money congress does or doesn't give them. Anything else is noise, and I can't tell if the dems proposing continued funding "with guardrails" are too stupid to realize that or if they're just hoping you are. Either way, though, the side they're actually taking, in a material sense, is "do nothing"

it's always "pie-in-the-sky" with these losers as if your party's incrementalism and meeting the fascists halfway every chance they get isn't exactly how we got here to begin with
