This is so fucked up.

This seems… someone should have planned for this before now… I should see if this is a problem in Canada and yell at my reps about it…

Which means I’ll look for an hour fail and give up. But such is life.

Rents in the DC area are astronomical. The housing crisis there is a huge problem. This does not surprise me at all.

Makes me want to punch things, but doesn’t surprise me one iota.

do u guys find this video creepy or cute bc i think thats a big personality indicator

this is literally the worst thing i’ve seen all day

All of you people hating on vib ribbon make me sick!

If you bully Vibri I will actually kill you with my fists.

For those that don’t know about Vib Ribbon, it’s an absolutely FASCINATING game! It came out on PS1, and the weird vector artstyle is like that because the game is so small it fits in the PlayStation RAM memory. Which meant that you could take the game CD out of the console and then insert any music CD and the game would generate levels from whatever songs you chose. It was such an innovation at the time!

See this is visually awesome but the idea of the game as presented gives me mountains of anxiety.

Like 93% of the self-contradictory behavior of fandom antis clicks into place when you realize the majority of them are victims of right wing authoritarian training from birth

“someone said my noncon pedophilic ship was disgusting so clearly they’re a right-wing authoritarian :(”

I mean. Claiming that everyone who disagrees with you must be a sexual pervert is pretty much the most right wing authoritarian propaganda tactic there is. (Right-wing means ‘traditionalist’, not ‘American Republican’, by the way). But when I said ‘victims of right wing authoritarian training’, I’m saying that many of y’all are the kids of these creeps, and expecting you to completely abandon the thinking patterns you were trained in from youth the instant you stopped sharing their political beliefs is kind of absurd.

I speak from experience, by the way: my parents are right wing authoritarians too. And it took me a long, LONG time to stop using the same shame tactics, self-serving judgmental thinking, and dogmatic behavior even though I rejected their worldview – like, 26 years or so.

The problem isn’t your feelings on explicit CSA* in fiction: it’s your insistence on judging everyone else’s feelings on it according to your own worldview, which is, of course, the only correct view. (As a person trained to think like an authoritarian, you may not have considered any other possibility.)

It’s my hope that you won’t stay trapped in such a graceless mindset your whole life. (Partially because it tends to lead to voting in power-hungry despots just because their politics supposedly agree with yours, but also because it’s just such a miserable, narrow way to live.)

*not that ‘pedophilia’ is being used in a genuine way by the person I’m replying to, but if it was, it would be csa.

As a child of the Satanic Panic era, can confirm. Fiction-obsessed puritanical moral authoritarians is the same.

it would be best if constituents from these districts called! ask some questions and let them know we are not ok with this!

Please please please call these reps and the reps in your own state. We NEED to maintain protection for these species, as it is the only way to preserve the ecosystems that we DIRECTLY DEPEND ON for carbon sequestering, clean water, and clean air!!

FUCK THIS. FUCK TRUMP, THIS CAN’T HAPPEN.

RESIST FIGHT BACK.

Save the EPA. Call your representatives.

I’ve got a few things that I’d like to point out. Let me preface this by saying that in no way am I suggesting you don’t contact your representatives to try to put a stop to this. 

This bill was introduced in February of 2017. That’s… 21 months ago! The last action taken on the bill was to introduce it to a subcommittee that it was already referred to. This was done back in April of 2017. That’s 19 months ago. So, between this, that, and the other: whatever distractions the current administration is trying to pull over on us, these committees have been sitting on this bill for a very long time. 

Again, I’m not saying this shouldn’t be stopped, but amidst Sessions being fired and Acosta being harassed, it’s much more likely that this is a very convenient distraction, seeing as how the only sponsors on the bill are Republicans (and all of whom appear to have won their re-election campaign).

chuck tingle, two time hugo award nominee and author of such erotica classics as ‘space raptor butt invasion’, ‘i’m gay for my living billionaire jet plane’, ‘bigfoot pirates haunt my balls’, and ‘there’s a bitcoin in my butt and he’s handsome’ just published a short story about the importance of consent and how it’s okay to have a loving relationship without sex if you want to??? 

that’s lovely on its own but it’s also called ‘not pounded in the butt by anything and that’s okay’, which is my favourite book title ever
