I have some news for members of the united states armed forces who feel like they are pawns in a political game and their assignments being unnecessary.

Tbh as a non-American, reading media set in USA sometimes feels like you stumbled into a fanfic fandom-blind and there's naturally no exposition about the setting because you're supposed to be aware of it. But you're not so you just nod along and hope it's not relevant to the story. Like the characters being from different states probably has some significance to their backstory but it's never explained. The story being set in this state also probably has some significance but it's also not explained. Being in this diner/shop/Americanism-store thing whatever probably has some context clues (is it supposed to be posh? Common? Cheap? Accessible? Old-fashioned?) but it is also not explained. It's like when you're reading a new scifi/fantasy story and there's a hundred new terms but you can't extrapolate their meanings from context clues/flavour text because they just give you a name and you're like "cool, dunno what that means at all".

“trans people in sports is such a complex issue” it really isn’t. make the sports skills-based instead of segregated by gender. “ohhh but so many people’s lives depend on their sports for scholarships” okay then let’s make university universally funded so people don’t have to worry about paying for it based on how well they can throw a ball. how are you not keeping up

woah did anyone else see that

Breaking my several year harry potter silence just to say that in the Apollo Justice Trilogy, they removed the harry potter reference they originally had in the game. Which means that if you still consume hp content and talk about it, you are doing worse than fucking capcom

Watching TikTok try and rewrite fandom history by saying fandom culture was created by teenage girls makes me eye twitch to an extent I’ve never felt it twitch before. The middle aged women printing out Spirk erotica to share with each other in the 1900s did not die for this!!!! How dare you erase our important historic moments!!! You would be nowhere without the 30 year old women who dedicated their free time to making these spaces happen. Put some respect on their names!!!!

TIL anyone who's going to overwinter in Antarctica has to have had their appendix out. Because removing an appendix that's not causing any trouble just as a precaution is way better than having one that's about to burst when you're on the ass-end of the planet with no way to be rushed to a hospital if shit gets real.
