any good protest should be burning US flags, not waving them

do you want to complain abt something. you have good takes and it's always fun to listen to haterism

the fucking devil on my shoulder over here,

i feel like most of the stuff I strongly Dislike I post about. uh.

ok gonna say a potentially controversial thing: i don't think toby fox is the pinnacle of writing trans narratives. yes, Kris is nonbinary and that matters; yes, Mettaton and Maddie are both trans and that matters. i love them all. it is all better than 95% of games. however it's all done with this weird air of vagueness and metaphor and leaving wiggle room to "headcanon out of it". like, assigned nb at birth ghosts magically transitioning thru possession of objects is. there's some issues baked in there.

i don't think he's ever going to firmly confirm kris is nonbinary. as time passes I lose hope for them even getting to wear a skirt. and like, I'll still take Kris for everything they're worth, and I'll do my own things with gender on top of the wonderful baseline that's been provided, and I'll love and support anyone who fleshes out what we've been given or who sees themself reflected in these characters. but toby's approach does genuinely bother me sometimes.

again. love these characters. glad they exist. better than the vast majority of games. but the bar is kinda on the floor for that one and I do think in 2025 we can ask for "have an explicit non-metaphorical transition"

Community leaders are commemorating six years of fare-free service at the Worcester Regional Transit Authority.

The Zero Fare Coalition hosted a celebration Tuesday afternoon at Worcester's Union Station. The Worcester Regional Transit Authority (WRTA) originally eliminated fares during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The Coalition said by late 2022, ridership reached 140% of pre-pandemic levels which outpaced all other regional transit authorities in Massachusetts. The WRTA Advisory Board voted in April to extend free fares through at least June of 2026.

...

The Coalition says the WRTA's program is the longest running of its kind in the United States. A poll conducted in 2024 shows 70% of local residents were in favor of continuing free fares.

turns out you can just make public transit free and it works and people like it. who knew

I don't know how long this will last, but all I hear is: Iran, Israel, America... as if Gaza doesn't exist, as if the world has forgotten the people suffering there.

Mohammed needs to buy diapers for his children, but just one pack costs $100. His daughter Saba is already very ill with meningitis and a fever, and these unsanitary conditions are dangerous for her. The entire family of 5 also needs food for today (June 24), but this will also cost upwards of $100.

you simply need to be able to recognize and criticize transmisogyny in general and not just the extremely over the top JKR type shit, you are not actually growing if you refuse to consider the idea that other queer people can reinforce and benefit from transmisogyny on smaller levels too

while it's a little goofy of heartstopper's author to say "i don't think it's BL" because that's just what any story abt mlm is categorized in Japan, it's not absurd at all for her to say that yaoi and BL as a whole have glaring issues with sexualization of minors, romanticization of abuse and how often the stories don't reflect any kind of reality abt queer men (CRITICISM THAT HAS EXISTED ABT YAOI FROM JAPANESE GAY MEN SINCE THE 70s? 60s???)

and it IS absurd to say she only wants "sanitized, western" stories when she quotes a japanese artist as one of her inspirations. because it's not japanese art she opposes, just art that, again, revels in toxicity and explicit content of underage kids. and the fact that people are really mad and going "ADMIT IT, YOU'RE A FUJO, ADMIT IT!!!" is uhhhh. embarrassing to say the least LOLLL
