I haven't talked about the masterpiece that is Veil in a while so here I am once again, begging you to pick up Veil by Kotteri because it's one of the most gorgeous mangas ever, and the two MCs are have the best chemistry ever. 1000/10, highly recommend.

PTA shut down production and ballooned the budget on this movie so he could cast Benicio del Toro, and the very first shot of him instantly proves it was worth it

goodness knows that second-wave feminism has much to answer for, but its very simple answer to questions like these – "this is a product of patriarchy" – is one that hasn't been surpassed or supplanted.
Just how morally, ethically, intellectually bankrupt do you have to be to argue that 15-year-olds can sell sex but can’t affirm gender

Wearing a well-fitting mask on, say, public transit or in a book store is so much less of a burden than anyone like Alice—or many with less-visible disabilities—has to shoulder every day.
Think about the lives of others, & their families, then think, what’s more important—them, or your convenience?

You, an idiot: I like ice cream
Google, the world's smartest overlord: yes, we all long for a world where you aren't forced to have ice cream like some kind of joyful child

There is a new Google ad depicting a world where everyone is carrying around a soft-serve ice cream cone. At the end, they show someone talking to their Pixel phone, and end with “everything else is vanilla.” I… I want to live in the ice cream universe 🥲

I know this is simplistic, but, honestly, why not just ignore the New York Times? How many shitty meals do you have to stomach before you stop going to that horrible restaurant?

Freud abandoned the seduction theory because it was simply too hard to confront the reality that childhood sexual abuse was endemic in Vienna society. Thinking about that today amid the flood of Epstein emails, and the silence among the MAGA child sex abuse conspiracy theorists.

Market anarchist Benjamin Tucker's bogus claim that Kropotkin and the Haymarket martyrs (the latter executed on this day in 1887) were not real anarchists was based on his bogus idea that Proudhon was the first anarchist and Proudhon was against communism. Bogus premise leads to bogus conclusion.

That, combined with SAC's insistence on creating a cishetero backstory for the Major, is why Innocence is my pick from the GitS animeverse. The Major is off doing whatever she's doing, but she's pretty obviously no longer a cop, and Batou is mostly operating outside the framework of the law.

4. And, again, if you treat Kyubey's interventions as sufficiently advanced technology indistinguishable from magic, the Soul Gems are a very direct psychic and bodily intervention of technology.
I'm not being entirely serious, but you can make it work without too much distortion, I think.

For me the main things are
1. Suffering and despair as surplus value is an on the nose metaphor for capitalist exploitation IMO.
2. The witches' domains as cyberspaces.
3. Madoka's transcendence into the Law of Cycles replaces one system of total control with a more liberatory alternative.
