It's important that we keep noting that literally no one is saying this.
Trump: "Already they are saying better than Lincoln, better than Washington, better than everybody. The best 10 months ever in the history of the presidency."

This is a white supremacist rally. Anyone who attends something like this or still supports the leader of this movement should be unwelcome in your home and shunned from civil society. Period. We’re way past the point where this crap should be tolerated from anyone. Cast them out.
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."

The crowd in Pennsylvania then starts chanting "send her back!"

"Every disturbing news report about a wrongful deportation or military-style raid of an apartment building should come as a reminder that the US government is using its prosecutorial discretion—it is *choosing*—to normalize casual cruelty and overt racism."
A year of hell for immigrants
In the first Trump administration, cruelty was the point. Now, it is the norm.

a key part of the Trump 2.0 agenda has been a series of lopsided, precedent-ignoring Supreme Court rulings that basically make it largely impossible for regulators to do their jobs, but somehow journalists at key institutions don't think that's IMPORTANT FUCKING CONTEXT

The core conceit is that the rebels have won, but there was never a coherent or shared vision of what would replace the ancien regime; it rapidly breaks into warlordism and competing visions of the future.
Turning and twisting thoughts over and around my mind, trying to bring the Sea of Grass - my fantasy setting of a post-revolution, post-imperial land trying to answer the "Are we free? What comes next?" questions. I swear, nearly every decision I make I second guess a dozen times.

what you should do: repost art; write alt-text as much as you can; encourage others to do the same

what you shouldn't do: engage in harassment campaigns against people who don't write alt-text or repost art, either when they forget or ever. folks who use alt text never asked for this.

Scratch off the protective coating on the back and tell me the fifteen digit redemption codes. Hurry

Artist alleys at comic cons bum me out sometimes because I’ll see artists who’ve inspired me my whole life grinding away hour by hour when they should all be comfortable as hell and doing whatever they want, making whatever they want. I want that for everybody!

If the writer’s eyes light up when asked, “why did the character do that?” then it’s real.

This might be an old man take but some of this “why dont girls like me” shit I just can’t empathize with. Alotta of yall don’t have romantic relationships because you have no social and emotional skills. That shit takes practice. Which means talking to people and honest self reflection.

Anyone know any m/m romances (fantasy for preference) where at least one of the characters is huge and powerful and fat and this is treated as extremely sexy and desirable

Riding that immediate post-GMing high. Watching them expand mysteries and find more information and adventure and not die horribly.

Not for want of the dice's trying, though. The dice really hated them today.
