Fox News: “Kill the homeless with lethal injections.” No problem. MSNBC: “Charlie Kirk is divisive.” Fired on the spot. Welcome to America 2025.
Any news organization with a shred of decency would fire Brian Kilmeade immediately. There is no gray area about this.
I love my iPhone 4s (I have 3 or 4 of them), but the clear case I have is just mega yellowed. I need to find a new one, but it's difficult to find now and they yellow so fast.
Oh I would spend decades in a world like that, haha. I love exploring, and I love the world of Tolkien. I wish I could get together a game of MERP, I used to DM that a few years ago. (Middle-Earth Roleplaying, a defunct tabletop with SERIOUS good lore expanding modules!)
Yeah see that's my problem, an online PC game is just not at all what I can easily do, lol. I need a more single player, offline experience.
I think honestly what I want doesn't exist, which is just sort of an open exploration of Middle Earth type game. Like Elder Scrolls for Middle Earth, perhaps.
Is that any good? I've been trying to find a LotR game I can play on my Switch, and the best I can come up with is the GBA games on the GBA emulator service thing. (Being vague for reasons)
Breaking: The @wsj.com is reporting that the comment was not made by Brian Kilmeade but by an unidentified transgender person
Get off Twitter NOW. Like literally right now. Delete it from your devices.
Daaaaaaaang, I wish we'd had THAT on our Intellivision instead of just sports and space shooters! (I liked the space shooters, though.)
On the topic of stuff I wish was available to me these days... I've always loved Jem and the Holograms. It was one of the overtly "girl" things I liked as a kid, with no worry about doing so, because it was so cool. Recently, Hasbro finally released an updated doll of Jem/Jerra, and it looks great
I just really deeply want to own some Polly Pockets! I really loved them as a kid, but I was only allowed to play with Mighty Max. I'd take my Mighty Max stuff and go play with the girls in their Polly Pocket worlds, since they were the same size. I got one from a Happy Meal once and was so excited!
Meant to share this link to help Gretchen and the lost revenue from losing her book.
"I'm not sure I've actually had that experience yet" is what I was ABOUT to say, until it just occurred to me that I was having that feeling about almost ALL BDSM for like 15 years of my life and trying desperately to ignore it ... WHOOOOOPS.
Good work!
Both seem like good ideas!
I think quoting Hitler is just a default thing she does now. She is defaulting to Hitler.
Whooooooo! I did it, I beat the Famicom version of The Legend of #Zelda! Never done that before! (Alt text has my translations of the text)
Hmmmmm :3
You're so sweet, but I don't want to take money from anybody in poverty. I'll feel guilty about myself and feel like an irresponsible jerk.
Ugghhh, you shouldn't, you need it too!
It's fine! I'll totally live
Well I've tried transition, BDSM, and water. Maybe I need that ADHD medication. Or birds.
Maybe not my forever fav but it always makes me laugh. AND has good advice.
Good for them.
If there's one thing I've (re)learned from all this, it's that fascism is pretty much always self-cannibalizing. How quickly it devours itself is variable, but regardless you just can't build a system on so much hate and expect it to not hate itself to death.
The Purpose of a System is What It Does, and mainstream journalism constantly endangers trans people. It's not irresponsibility; it's intent.
God I wish I had money for McDonalds breakfast, I haven't had that in a while... But somehow my Paypal account is -$17? How does that even happen??? It's got to be some weird currency conversion bullshit, I dunno. McMuffin...
Like... how evil? Like are you ok/safe?
I sometimes wonder if it's "free speech" and "religious freedom" they want or just "free abuse of anybody they don't like?" I mean every Christian Nationalist I ever met wanted the freedom to abuse the fuck out of me, mentally and physically, so why wouldn't it be endemic? (I don't wonder, I know)
If this were me I'd want some sort of kinky shock training where some hot girl would zap me and call me humiliating slurs every time I went to look at the numbers. You know, because THAT'S healthy, lol... (I am not healthy.)
What's wrong?
man they really didn't give a shit about that guy. as soon as it was clear they couldn't use his death to launch a purge they started to treat it like a nothingburger
This is how you can tell free speech is a passion among Charlie Kirk fans.
JKR is quoting Hitler. In other news, now is the time to cut off any family and friends still into Harry Potter shit. Their house ain't Hufflepuff or whatever. It's a flaming dumpster of dogshit and bigoted uncles yelling about "those people."
Wish!
You know, the frustrating thing is remembering that you HAVE experienced it... just way too young and not at all consensually...

Here are the _public_ email addresses for the reporters and the standards editor listed on the WSJ site. Standards editor: David.marcelis@wsj.com Journalists who wrote the article: james.fanelli@wsj.com sadie.gurman@wsj.com Politely and peacefully demand a retraction and an apology.
Fuuuuuuuuuck *dies of uncontrollable lesbian urges*
I saw 69 so, I showed up.
Someone preaches radical extremist violence from pulpits and podiums, and you know... people assume it's their opponents who choose violence. But it always turns out the people most likely to choose violence were the people in the very pews where violence was preached. Surprise, hate breeds hate.
I still have all those old writings in a winzip file, but I password protected it and have not been able to get in for 20+ years. So... if anybody has any idea how I could get into that, I'd be interested lol.
I have a feeling I'm not gonna last much longer. But then I also have a feeling that once the weather gets cool enough, I might start writing lots of fiction about suffering and SH and romanticizing death and such... EXACTLY like I did when I was 18. Complete with the Sailor Moon and Utena OSTs.
Oh I saw. A bit hard to follow the flow of it, but uhhh... I think I get your drift, and I'm still here lol.
I often wonder if I'll ever get to experience penetrative bottoming before I die? This question legitimately keeps me up nights...
I'm down for this
Transgender people are owed a retraction and apology from @wsj.com. The lie has already become canon to millions and it seems the least they could do.
I'd be lying if I said it was healthy, but I was less than a year out of my abusive home, and got assaulted pretty quickly as the "weird queer looking kid" at a Christian college. I was mentally still in the loop of fantasizing/romanticizing, and even now like 25 years later I'm still doing it, lol.
I mean I'm (Michelle) named after a lesbian Sailor Moon character, soooo... and yeah, that show simultaneously got me through college and a few near suicide attempts, but ALSO gave me plenty of material for romanticizing death, which I turned into a bunch of queer suicide fanfics back in the day.
In the press statement they also said one of the casings said "Notices bulges OwO What's this?" and I guarantee that's what the DOJ is trying to claim is "trans ideology." Even though it's clearly just a cruel shitposting pun, they'll keep advancing the lie and we have to be ready to counter argue.
The Switch Lite can use external controllers, it just doesn't connect to TV. But yeah, I had a nice ergonomic grip for my Switch Lite before I sold it. It was comfy
Have you tried using other controllers with it? Also, I always use a grip that adds palm bumps under the joycons

So many eggs have found themselves cracked by spending time in my kitchen, haha.
Yeah, I know.
Oh ok, that explains why this incident made the news here in Japan, I was wondering about that.
Below is the site link. Consider donating - either there, or some other good cause that you feel more of a connection to, if you have a few bucks? Spread some good even in the middle of these awful days. Make yourself feel a bit better? That’s what I’m going for. Good night. ❤️ www.helpingpaws.org
I’ve been so angry so much lately that it sort of snapped today and just left a deep deep sadness. So to try to feel a bit better I’m going to donate some $$ to Helping Paws, a beautiful organization that trains service dogs. Melissa and Mark Hortman volunteered there.
Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).
AWWWWW so cute
Yeah, at some point it stops being a debate (good or bad faith) and starts being propaganda towards violence. I think he probably knew that, but all the better for him, it was making him rich and furthering his agenda. No words are ever going to stop that other than maybe "You're under arrest."
Someone I'm sure will say "So you're condoning violence?" and I would simply say "No I'm not, but he sure was." Like, if society wants to stop violence, do something legally about the people who travel the country/globe advocating for violence. We DO have laws for that.
The people saying "challenge him with words" never saw one of his countless debates where he used words to kill the truth and silence opposition to his views, refusing to listen or concede ANY point anybody presented. Like... I dunno what to say to that, really. His heart was incapable of empathy.
Trans news is often frustrating news. Side note, I'm all for bleets.
probably one of the funniest tiktoks of all time
That's wonderful! I'm really happy for you, I totally get what it's like to be shocked you got as far as you did. I'm turning 43 in like two weeks, and I'm still baffled as to how I made it this far and how I will continue to pull that off, lol. Happy soon to be Birthday!
Political violence is abhorrent. I have not celebrated Kirk's death. But Newsom calling for his followers to "continue Charlie Kirk's work," someone who praised stoning gay people as "god's perfect law," who called for men to "take care of" trans people like they did in the 50s and 60s, is not it.
#NeverNewsom ever.
i need help. my best friend of 15 yrs is drowning. she has NEVER directly asked me for help before. i feel useless bc i live over 1000 miles away & my resources are limited. this girl is my other half. please help me take some weight off her shoulders. ca: $smiiileykylie v: KylieLGrove
I MADE IT! I got breakfast! Whooooooo!
A friend is working on housing for trans people of color, primarily trans women, please share this if you can. donations.signupgenius.com/forever-hous...
Awwww goddamnit, I might miss free breakfast... STUPID TIMELINE, WHY SO MUCH GOTTA GO WRONG THE MORNING WHEN I GOT A TICKET FOR FREE BREAKFAST!!!
Yeah, and like I know he doesn't mean ill, but like... it still hurts regardless. Like it's my identity, and by saying "I don't think it's good for you to identify that way" what he's unintentionally saying is "My perspective is more important than your lived experience." It's 2025, FUCK. THAT.
I have one person in my life who just actively refuses, because he believes its degrading to me, and isn't capable of accepting why I'm ok with the whole concept. And it's like... well... they aren't your pronouns bro, this isn't about you??? But yeah... well whatever.
Yeah, you're like one of the two fingers. HEH.
I can count on one hand in the past year how many times someone has actually non-prompted used "it/its" pronouns for me. Kinda sad.
I wish... *sigh* I wish I had some sort of artistic ability to express feelings like this, because I struggle to externalize the pain on my own. Thanks for making this, it helps me connect with those feelings, even though I can't get at them directly myself.
Well as much as I'm interested in seeing what everyone posts about the world today, I have to get ready for work. If I get there early today, I get a free breakfast!
Good morn- OH. Huh. Well... that's certainly a thing that happened while I was asleep.
Just gonna share this real quick for no reason at all. www.newsweek.com/charlie-kirk...

I left VICE in July due to important and valuable work on video game censorship being, well, censored. Since then it's been a bit tough to find steady work outside of my VTubing & VA work. Helping pay for things like rent would allow me to continue to focus on this issue ko-fi.com/acvalens/goa...
I read that as "I'm playing P4rn lol" and you know what my brain thought
streeting is such a weasely little opportunist.
I'm glad ya'll are choosing to survive this time
You're doing fantastic! Keep fighting~

ko-fi.com/dreamingnoct... Morning, everyone! Just a small goal for now to cover some household expenses, and give me a buffer for this weeks vet checkup appointments. Once I finish some commissions, I will open up more slots. Anything at all helps! Thanks so much!
I had no idea!
Thanks! Alcohol temporarily made everything moderately ok
I sometimes can't forgive myself for the things that were done to me.
