Has anyone stuck Doug Jones in a freaky costume in a while? Or is the poor man being deprived his art?

I've reached the point in my asexuality discovery where I've stopped asking what's wrong with me and started asking what's wrong with y'all.

we need to invent a way to explain how deep running and pervasive and subliminal racism and antiblackness is without immediately sounding like an insane conspiracy theorist

The bill allocates hundreds of billions of dollars towards immigration enforcement, takes steep cuts out of Medicaid, and cuts taxes for the ultra-rich.

In the last 5 years, under both Trump and Biden, the USA has: - Allowed a pandemic to kill over 1 million of its own people and ruin its own economy for the sake of short term profit (losing long term profit) - Started a new war in Ukraine which it failed to win - Renewed the genocide in Palestine through its air base known as Israel, succeeding only in brutally murdering hundreds of thousands of civilians while simultaneously weakening its overall hold on the region. Through this war Israel's economy has been crippled, its credit score has been significantly reduced leading to many states and organizations divesting simply because it makes financial sense, it has been further isolated strategically and economically - Successfully encouraged many world economies to drop the dollar in favor of more stable currencies - Gutted its own academic industry to own the libs, ending, stalling, or delaying a significant amount of ongoing work including in those industries and fields which are critical for success in the world today such as high performance computing, AI, nuclear. This also had the effect of encouraging many researchers to go to China instead, which is far friendlier to researchers - Destroyed its own institutions for extending soft imperial power around the globe, ensuring its influence in the future will be limited - Successfully encouraged many countries, even countries normally opposed to each other, to engage in closer cooperation to the exclusion of the US - Started a new war with Iran which it immediately lost (it failed to achieve any of its strategic goals and was met with overwhelming resistance from Iran leading to massive destruction in the Entity), forcing it to seek peace to avoid the total loss of the Entity - Expanded the use of gestapo (who have had their funding continuously increased by every government in power since their introduction) and massively publicized attacks on immigrants across party lines, significantly increasing internal tensions and leading to the rapid development of anti-US groups within its own borders. This builds directly off of all of the major movements which have taken place in the US over the last several years, including the movement after the murder of George Floyd and the pro-Palestine movement.

The US empire is dying and will not survive the century. The US is a paper tiger and its time is soon approaching.

We must destroy capitalism so there is more time for cuddling with the girls.

I want to help her, not because I think she’s incapable, but because she deserves to be taken care of.

Yeah you’re perfectly capable of opening a door by yourself, but isn’t it just nice if I hold it open for you instead? I know you’re strong enough to carry your own bags, but let me lighten the load anyway. You can cook a nice meal, but what if you just relax on the couch, and let me make it for you? You might not really need a hug in this moment, but I can give you one anyway, because hugs aren’t just for when you feel bad. I’m well aware that you’re capable of doing simple tasks, like making your bed, or folding your laundry. I’d just like to do it for you anyway.

I just want to take care of her in the simplest of ways, taking care of the little things.

No, because what do you mean Arcane has completely rewritten the rulebook on queer representation in media, and it did it so effortlessly that it puts so many other shows to shame. Like, how are you going to tell me this animated series—ostensibly a spin-off of a video game—has given us some of the most nuanced, unapologetically powerful sapphic characters ever without reducing them to stereotypes, side plots, or, worse, trauma porn?

Vi and Caitlyn? Their dynamic is ELECTRIC. You’ve got Vi, the rough-edged, fiercely loyal, scrappy brawler with a tender side that could wreck anyone emotionally, and Caitlyn, the sharp, principled, deeply empathetic enforcer with a heart of gold. The way their relationship is built on mutual respect and trust while navigating all the insane, tragic chaos around them? Literal chef's kiss. And not once do we get the tired, lazy "coming out" narrative or the "but what about the gays?" rhetoric. Their queerness isn’t the story—it’s just a beautifully natural part of who they are. And THAT is revolutionary.

And let’s not even stop there. This show handles gender like it’s been waiting for everyone else to catch up. Characters like Sevika, who could give you chills with her sheer badassery and gender-nonconforming energy, exist unapologetically without the narrative ever feeling the need to spoon-feed us explanations. It’s just there, woven seamlessly into the fabric of the world.

So many shows claim to want to "normalize" queer relationships or push the envelope, but Arcane has quietly dominated the space by just writing characters who feel authentic. Their struggles are about class, power, loyalty, trauma, not token representation or forced diversity. This show said, “We’re just going to make some of the most layered, compelling characters you’ve ever seen—and oh yeah, some of them are gay. Keep up.”

Like, the bar wasn’t just raised—it was launched into the stratosphere. What do you mean this level of representation isn’t the norm yet? Arcane said, “We’re not asking for permission to exist. We’re just existing.” And that? That is art.
