as a regular donor to Gaza Soup Kitchen I get their email updates, and they said today that while they've continued to be able to expand, donations are slowing down as Gaza gets less coverage. If you have a few dollars to spare, I encourage you to send them here to continue the amazing work that Hani and his team are doing.

actually I think you should be normal about ordinary citizens of authoritarian countries and yes that applies even to that country you're thinking of right now

We need to talk about how this antisocial rudeness epidemic is making life hell for anyone trying to overcome social anxiety lol

More and more lately I'll be like "ugh calm down just ask the person this very reasonable simple question they won't treat you like you're a clown in his full clown suit" and then they do that

ill be real the "poly people are uglyyy" thing just feels like cope? like theyre in a polycule. they have directly proven that multiple people find them hot enough to want to be in a relationship, often sexual, with. you have what? one single Monogamous Jessica, and you're terrified she'll leave you as soon as she sees a rooster with bigger tail feathers?

I just wish we’d had some way of knowing that the Nazi tattooed bigot who did mercenary work for Blackwater and was abusive to the women he had relationships with was a bad guy before he’d gotten this far. If only we’d had some sort of visual warning for who Graham Platner was. If only he might have had something on his body that could tell us he was no good, before we let him run this long. Hindsight’s 20 fucking 20 I guess though huh

It’s so clear people don’t see people in the global south as real people. The only thing that’s changed since this information came out is that we found out he also victimized a white western woman. We already knew that he bragged about killing people in the global south, but that doesn’t matter because no one sees people in the global south as human.

THIS IS OPEN TO COMMENT UNTIL JULY 13, 2026

Please note the comment period is open through JULY 13th, not JUNE 13th. I saw a lot of relogs yesterday saying "last day!" and I just want to say it is very much not too late.

As of today, 7/8/26, we have five days for public commentary on this to go through. I am begging y'all: if you care about independent science in the country that produces the most global science funding in the world, please leave a comment.

You actually cannot skip to being good at a creative endeavour that you haven't put much practice into. You cannot trick your way out of the 'knows that your work is not what you want it to be but don't know how to improve it' stage by planning or reading or talking about it really really hard. At some point you just have to craft through it until your brain finds it's own unique way back to the 'everything I make slaps' stage and be prepared to start the cycle all over again. You just have to make that project you're excited about slightly less good than you want it to be. (Says this standing in a pool of blood and covered in blood and also coughing up a little blood)

Ok but also, if you don’t *want* to write complex plot, don’t. If you just want to take your characters out and play with them, go ahead. You don’t have to write a great story, you can just write for you and whoever else wants to read it. That’s actually fine. It’s called a hobby. Not pursuing excellence is not a moral failing. Have fun.

Maybe reblog a reblog where someone sent you literally any vitriol to make this point. Sorry you weren’t ready for people’s scathing takes. Stay strong.

See, this is the kind of writer I'm dealing with. You couldn't even be original with your comeback, you had to borrow my own words to take a shot at me. That's almost flattering.

the truly evil part about lolcowing is that the targets are almost always people who have done something/things that are unsavory at best or objectively harmful at worst and that is used as justification to treat them however you want with no recourse whatsoever. like you suddenly have permission to dehumanize someone for what, fucking entertainment. and if anyone tells you to cool it for a minute, suddenly they're supportive of that behavior, making you effectively immune to anyone who disagrees. like apparently nobody's ever heard of disproportionate punishment
