usamericans, do you remember in the incredibles when syndrome made the robot go haywire just so he could swoop in and 'save the day'

the fact that so many of you desensitized monsters care more about good omens, all the fully grown rich white men attached to it and your own entertainment than the victims is genuinely saddening. the future is so bleak and i dont give a fuck if anyone thinks i’m overreacting. hearing about two women be violently sexually assaulted & going “but what about my tv show🥺” is literally crazy

update: the notifications on this post have been muted. i said what i said. and if you have a problem with it, i don’t care

This tweet lives rent-free in my head now. Hands-down the best comment about the relationship between art and artist.

[inquisitorhotpants]

Fuck Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer. They can both burn in eternal Hell.

The fact that multiple women told Palmer the horrific things Gaiman had done to them and she was still bringing other women around him, introducing them to him, etc.

Sickening. That Vulture article is one of the worst things I've ever read. My god.

There Is No Safe Word

How the best-selling fantasy author Neil Gaiman hid the darkest parts of himself for decades

By Lila Shapiro

This past July, a British podcast produced by Tortoise Media broke the news that two women had accused Gaiman of sexual assault. Since then, more women have shared allegations of assault, coercion, and abuse. The podcast, Master, reported by Paul Caruana Galizia and Rachel Johnson, tells the stories of five of them. (Gaiman’s perspective on these relationships, including with Pavlovich, is that they were entirely consensual.) I spoke with four of those women along with four others whose stories share elements with theirs. I also reviewed contemporaneous diary entries, texts and emails with friends, messages between Gaiman and the women, and police correspondence. Most of the women were in their 20s when they met Gaiman. The youngest was 18. Two of them worked for him. Five were his fans. With one exception, an allegation of forcible kissing from 1986, when Gaiman was in his mid-20s, the stories take place when Gaiman was in his 40s or older, a period in which he lived among the U.S., the U.K., and New Zealand. By then, he had a reputation as an outspoken champion of women. “Gaiman insists on telling the stories of people who are traditionally marginalized, missing, or silenced in literature,” wrote Tara Prescott-Johnson in the essay collection Feminism in the Worlds of Neil Gaiman. Although his books abounded with stories of men torturing, raping, and murdering women, this was largely perceived as evidence of his empathy.

In 2012, Palmer met a 20-year-old fan, who has asked to be referred to as Rachel, at a Dresden Dolls concert. After one of Palmer’s next shows, the women had sex. The morning after, Palmer snapped a few semi-naked pictures of Rachel and asked if she could send one to Gaiman. She and Palmer slept together a few more times, but then Palmer seemed to lose interest in sex with her. Some six months after they met, Palmer introduced Rachel to Gaiman online, telling Rachel, “He’ll love you.” The two struck up a correspondence that quickly turned sexual, and Gaiman invited her to his house in Wisconsin. As she packed for the trip, she asked Palmer over email if she had any advice for pleasing Gaiman in bed. Palmer joked in response, “i think the fun is finding out on your own.” With Gaiman, Rachel says there was never a “blatant rupture of consent” but that he was always pressing her to do things that hurt and scared her. Looking back, she feels Palmer gave her to him “like a toy.”

I can’t wait until my sense of taste is back. This cup of tea tastes like hot water. :(

Watch: President Jimmy Carter tells Oprah America is no longer a democracy, it’s an oligarchy — and he’s not wrong.

reminder that being against ai also means being against character.ai and not using character.ai and not interacting with character.ai

i've never talked to chatgpt i've never talked to character.ai i have no interest in talking to a chatbot even if it's fun or based on my comfort character. if we want companies to stop using ai we need to tell them we aren't going to interact with it - so don't.

don't talk to robots. full stop.

MESSAGE TO ALL BITCHES: WE ARE SURVIVING THIS YEAR NO MATTER WHAT.

[inquisitorhotpants]

@minors on this website:

You 👏 are 👏 in 👏 public 👏

Your blog is public, your posts are public. There is actually a setting to change this if you want to; otherwise literally anyone can and will interact. Stop advertising your age (and mental illnesses, etc) and block adults yourself if you want to.

If you wouldn't walk through a crowd of strangers wearing your personal info on a billboard or expecting nobody over 18 to so much as glance at you, don't do it online.

The Marvels did poorly at the box office and all three leads handled it with grace and maturity. Imagine if Brie Larson reacted the same way Zachary Levi reacted to Shazam 2 bombing.

Manbabies hated this scene from She-Hulk but they keep validating it. Women have always been better at controlling their emotions than men because they have to be.

i am begging you all to stop treating this site like instagram if you dont want it to be content free by next year

Can't get the image out of my head of Merrill becoming a figurehead, Merrill becoming a revolutionary, Merrill becoming a legend, Merrill being remembered as a Goddess; one of wrath and kindness and a drive to fix what is broken always.

Merrill who's hands are dirty with blood and mud and history. Merrill who has clawed everything she can from humans who denied her people their culture and then kept clawing when her own family tried to take it away too. Merrill who fought for knowledge above all. Merrill who has learnt to fight for the city elves in Kirkwall, and always fought for the dalish. Merrill who invoked the god of vengeance when she first saw the alienage.

Merrill, who would look at the Gods with pain at what this showed but also joy of knowledge and also righteous fury. Merrill who would take no shit. Merrill who would be kind to those who follow her and who would be loyal and who would face the Gods not because of duty but because she wanted to fight for both the history and the future. Merrill who would over redemption before death. Merrill who would spill her own blood.

Just thinking about Merrill Merrill Merrill
