So, I’m reading Witches Abroad right now, and in it there’s a festival that’s pretty clearly based in Mardi Gras, called Samedi Nuit Mort. I knew what each of those words meant, and could tell there was a joke in there, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. I thought it was something to do with how it sounded out loud, but that didn’t work…

You guys. It’s Saturday Night Dead.

Next week people are going to start angrily asking me "Are you a squeedus or a colmfnart" and I'm gonna ask "What the fuck does that mean" and they're gonna say "Oh, one means AFAB and one means AMAB but we wanted to say it with different words" and I'll say "That does not seem like a nice question to ask strangers" and then they'll get very mad and say something about how of course a fucking squeedus would say that

Did anyone ever like attempt to document and compile the variations of Barney the dinosaur murder ballads across the elementary school system in the early 2000s. Like legit it has always fascinated me as a phenomena and I would love to know if there were like traceable regional variations or what.

Notable News Update on the Itch.io/Steam Adult Content Situation, 7/31/25:

Itch.io has posted a new update on the status of Adult and NSFW content on their site. The post can be found here but, for the tl;dr crowd:

They are in the process of re-indexing all Free Adult and NSFW content.

What Does that Even Mean? If you have Adult/NSFW content hosted on Itch.io and you want it to start showing up in Search results again, you will need to select the 'No Payments' option. So you won't be able to get any donations/revenue from it for the time being.

The hunt for a new payment processor so business can return to something akin to normal is still ongoing.

Itch.io is also in the process of trying to implement a new 'Content Warnings' flag for Adult and NSFW content as a sort of 'foolproof, Dead Dove/Do Not Eat' failsafe so no one can go 'How was I suppose to know that this platform allowed such awful content~?!'

This flag system is still very much a work-in-progress but they have guaranteed a new, in-depth post when it is completed.

Other Notable Updates:

Visa is continuing to complain about the volume of phone calls they have been getting about this issue.

This is by no means a sign to stop calling them.

Stripe has made a statement that was delivered via Leafo, the main admin for Itch.io. Quote, 'Stripe is currently unable to support sexually explicit content due to restrictions placed on them by their banking partners, despite card networks generally supporting adult content (with the appropriate registrations). Stripe has indicated that they hope to be able to support adult content in the future.'

This is, by no means, a sign to stop calling/emailing them.

Though phone calls and physical letters are the most encouraged method of expressing your concern to the main payment-processors (Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, Stripe), if you are only able to send emails, the effort is still appreciated. Just know that you have be a little tricky in making sure someone will actually read said emails.

For an easy place to start, please review this post from the Cartoonist Cooperative

I will continue to do my due-diligence in reporting on this matter. Some updates just may be slow due to work starting to kick back in for the school year.

the weed dispensaries should ask if you would like to round up your purchase to donate to PBS. and if you say yes you get to scan a QR code that gives you 30-day free access to the full run of antiques roadshow. this is how drugs can win the war on drugs again.

Shapeshifter au where the kaer morons don't shift into their second forms because apparently it hurts them, so Jaskier thinks that must be some kind of witcher thing until he actually sees one of them shifted and he's like "biiiiitcccch of course it hurts! look at your fur being all dirty and matted, pulling at your skin, when was the last time someone groomed you?!" cue a very long very exhausting day for Jaskier where he shaves, bathes, cleans and grooms a whole pack of wolfdogs, while rambling on and on about proper canine care

Since it could happen any day now, I'm just going to say it.

If Tumblr asks me for ID verification, I will probably just not sign in again.

I love you guys, I will miss you, and I don't want you to think anything bad has happened to me if I disappear off here.

But it's a tall order to ask me to attach my real ID documents to a social media site that might not have the means to keep my information private and safe.

You can find me... nowhere, because everywhere else will have the exact same problem. If it happens I will just... not have an online presence any more.

Maybe it won't happen. I hope it doesn't. But I'm putting this here just in case.

gender essentialism is soooo funny bc it's like "this is what women are like" and you're like "I've met women and many of them, if not the majority, have not been like that" and it's like "well women SHOULD be like that" and you're like "why should women be like that" and its like "because that's what women are like"
