again I genuinely love death of a bachelor because it's essentially a portrait of a man who's driven most of his friends away through his constant lust for the spotlight. and he's acknowledging that. he sees it happening. but he's not going to change

I make fun of those "in this house" lawn signs as much as anyone but I try to keep a sense of perspective about it because when I was living at home in 2021 I did some dog sitting for some neighbors and bear in mind my family had moved to Maine in 2020 so we didn't actually know anyone yet and I felt an actual wave of relief when I saw their silly little "in this house" lawn sign because it was a very strong indicator that they were vaccinated. Even the corniest lib signaling can make someone feel safer in the right context.

This is the end result of anti-trans propaganda: more harassment of girls and women, more policing of gender roles, more gender McCarthyism.

"i do not dream of labour" is one of the worst pseudo-marxist taglines that western leftists have co-opted because when you ask them what they do dream of, they say traveling, studying, and creating art. broski, who's flying the plane to take you to prague? who's the security at the library with the texts you're studying? who are the clerks in the museum showcasing your art? like bro, you do dream of labour. you just dream of someone else doing it so you don't have to! you merely want to outsource the labour and make it invisible.

I think it’s important to be able to recognize the different between our emotional response, our moral response, and what we believe should be our legal response.

For example, emotionally, I genuinely think less of someone who buys into stupid conspiracies about organ donation. I think that morally, if you are unwilling (unwilling, not medically unable) to donate organs, you should not be an organ candidate. I don’t think you should be able to say ‘If I’m dead I want all of my organs to rot, even if they could save lives. But I also want to benefit from other people’s sacrifice.’ Fuck you.

But I do not believe it would be ethical (or practical) to legislate that. I think it would be a horrible ethical violation and medical coercion. I recognize that, even as I’m disgusted by people who would let someone die when saving lives would cost them nothing.

Legal codes and ethical guidelines shouldn’t be based around our feelings.

i can’t really muster any sympathy for conservative women due to them trying to murder my friends and family, but i too grew up in small town america. and being a girl surrounded by adult women who are misogynists really will give you such a skewed vision of what women are like. like “catty” “backstabbing” “two-faced” “dramatic” these are stereotypes of conservative women specifically. they teach each other and enforce in each other that behavior, and refuse to believe that that’s not the natural way for women to behave. it doesn’t occur to them that they themselves are assholes, and that they could be better. they hate and mistrust all their friends, they hate their mothers, their sisters, their daughters, and they don’t realize how many women outside of their horrible little bubble simply do not live that way. truly miserable bitches, and i know that for a fact because as an adult I’ve surrounded myself with cool lefty feminist bitches who would go to bat for me and anyone else. it’s a whole different world

i love how Gandalf invested in Hobbits in year one and has been pushing them ever since. Thorin, i hear you need help with a breaking and entering. Can I recommend one of these little cunts? Silent as fuck, trust me. Elrond my dude i know you're skeptical but these four chucklefucks just transported a weapon of mass destruction all the way here. Theoden, you've gotta get yourself a hobbit man, I've got a spare one here. Denathor you big prick, take a hobbit - literally this is the bottom of the range but listen to him sing. Beautiful little bastard.

As a chronic overachiever/perfectionist something that is so so important is a bag of microwave popcorn and a glass of cheap sauv blanc with ice to communicate to my nervous system that it is time to lower our expectations.
