what I want trans kids, queer kids, and gender nonconforming kids to know:
you are loved
you are so much more powerful than the ghouls using your healthcare as a political pawn, and you WILL outlive them (they know this, and it is why they're attacking you)

Heated Rivalry discourse reminds me queer media will never be good enough for people. Oh this gay media is too horny. Oh this gay media is too chaste. Oh this gay media has gay trauma. Oh this gay media ignores gay trauma
Have y’all looked outside lately? At this point all queer media is good media

I'm watching IT and IT: Chapter 2 today while finishing up my Christmas wrapping, in honor of James Ransone. He really was so great as Eddie Kaspbrak.

I love my grandma so much. There are so many things I know she would just love, but there's absolutely no way she for example, at 96, is going to be able to figure out how to play Disco Elysium.

unfortunately I do really like June's Journey, after having it advertised to me from almost every youtuber I follow for years. Way too many different in-game currencies, but I do like it.

must all seasons of supernatural be GOOD? is it not enough for the show to determine that Oz canonically exists in the supernatural universe and have Dean turn into a dog-man?

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.
tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

An experience I cannot recommend less is having shingles, on your boob and rib cage (and back) and several very sweet lovely cats who just want to be with you because they can tell you don't feel good, but who express that by stepping on boob and lying on ribs.

so I'm not an american girl doll collector by any means, but I put an offer in for one for $50, so now I have a Josefina coming who has just the skirt, no top or shoes... if only there were a reputable website for purchasing american girl doll shoes... perhaps from a favorite Dropout comedian...
