What Stuff Is Why?

Hellen, the intensity and success with which you commit to The Aesthetic (TM) is honestly such an inspiration for me. I'm both in awe and inspired.

when brandon sanderson talks about villains in his famous free youtube writing class video lectures he'll say 'what's the difference between gollum and sauron' and of course he means the villain that's present in the narrative and characterized in a way the audience can potentially relate to or sympathize with vs. the looming threatening anonymous far-off force (among other things). but every time he asks that i think 'well one of those guys tracked down frodo and got his ring back'

People have been saying stuff for years at this point

"Guy who picks fights with TERFs and spends almost no time supporting or even talking to any trans people" is a crucial part of the TERF radicalization ecosystem because every time he fucks up the TERFs can circulate the bullshit he said and pin it on us.

I've seen a few cases of this Type Of Guy and almost universally, once they've gained infamy in some terf space, they start getting a huge ego, and acting entitled to gratitude from trans people. Particularly trans women, and if criticized by trans women they absolutely lose it.

Like I have to make this absolutely clear: When someone like this acts like an insufferable buffoon, the consequences of his behavior are not going to be felt by him, but by the people he claims to be fighting for.

i asked chatgpt!! I asked gemini!! Well i asked brennan lee mulligan and he told me that i am not a monster and that religion is beautiful when it is a vehicle for love and faith rather than hate, and that doing my best is the greatest success criteria and that the universe loves and cares because i love and care. Oh and also that capitalism sucks and you should get in the comments!!

The fluidity of the movements was also terrifyingly good

tug up on it once then im dead

It’s extremely fucked up that some ppl try to make you feel stupid and immature for hoping for a better world. You say you want world peace and mfs think you need a pacifier; dawg, I just don’t want ppl dying from violence. This idea that ppl simply must die as casualties of war is misanthropic to say the least.

I know next to nothing about botany but the phrase “feral sunflower” is hilarious to me
