The overuse of "TERF" and "radfem" when someone is just a plain misogynist&transphobe lends legitimacy to the idea that shutting trans people out of public life "protects women"

Hi I was today years old when I realized some people truly don’t have to think about every single thing they do. They don’t have to have an imaginary set of rules (I’m not allowed to put on my bra until I’ve brushed my teeth) to function.

Now that I’m studying bio, may I just say how fervently I wish my primary association with the words “alpha, beta, omega” was literally anything other than what it is

so funny when people think that copyright law will help prevent people stealing art from your everyday Smol Bean Artist. have you fucking learned nothing from the music industry or are you just ignoring it because what's going on there doesn't fit in with your preconceived notions of how ip law actually gets used in real life

Kinda impressive how soon you can decide where you go in sliksong, but also the new areas keep coming so fast I feel like I'm getting whiplash.

fatphobia and ableism is so insidious. You can look up like, food, and it'll say "eating a lot of food causes diabetes" and you're like oh dang what? I thought we didn't know the cause of diabetes. So you look up what causes diabetes and it says "we still don't know what causes diabetes" bruh they're just making shit up to give people eating disorders

In case anyone's curious, Silksong did, in fact, immediately crash the entirety of Steam. Godspeed

Little bit funny how people's dislike of Harry Potter has now lapsed into like complete and total dismissal. The other day I was at a flower show and the theme for the displays at this particular flower show were book themed. And of course an admiring crowd went round and did the circuit of displays, ooh-ing and aah-ing at various renditions of The Railway Children and Little Red Riding Hood and taking photos. All extremely cool. And then they got to the Harry Potter section and there was just a complete blank look on a lot of people's faces. They didn't even comment like with the other displays, they simply walked by giving each other what-the-fuck-is-this shrugs. My sister is getting offered the opportunity to go to Harry Potter World by her college for art purposes this year and she said people were so distinctly unpsyched by even the offer of a very cheap coach trip and abysmally low priced tickets that they were already counting themselves out of the trip months in advance. There are stores with discount Gryffindor lunchboxes and scarves piling up desperately by the masses. Little stickers on them denoting price drops. Some stickers on top of others. Nobody gives a fuck about Harry Potter. It's all terribly exciting. I hope the HBO show is the nail in the coffin and we can finally put this shambolic corpse to a stake through the chest rest

"Wow, how stupid must you be to fall for a scam like that" idk babe, every "legitimate" company on earth is spending unimaginable amounts of money studying how to get you to give them your money without thinking too hard about it because the degree to which the average persons entire financial life is now knowingly and intentionally divied up each month between a bunch of specific corporations has created a situation where no one has any more to spend, so the only way for them to make money is to either convince you not to get something else, or to just trick you into spending more on them then they meant to, and the second method is just cheaper and easier for them to understand and implement, and the only other way to squeeze more money out of their bottom line is to cut back, fire people, reduce quality, get cheaper materials, skip steps to speed up production, etc., so now every product kind of feels like a scam, and we're used to disappointment, used to unmet promises, used to the fact that the thing in the ad will never be what we get... so idk how you expect people to identify scams, when every business is trying to trick you into accidentally spending more and never delivering what they promised, 'cause it all feels like a scam. it's not a mistake. it's the system, working.
