Decay Era (Growth)

you can very often tell who actually believes healthcare is a human right by whether they think fat people have to earn it first.

"i want to junk journal but i dont have any aesthetic trash/i dont buy anything with cute packaging" motherfucker neither do i. i pick scratched off lottery tickets and auntie annes packaging up off the sidewalk and glue that shit down. it works. you can make something pretty from garbage.

There's a very funny thing that happens in transhuman science fiction where sometimes an author will turn out to be a reactionary conservative who thought he was writing dystopian fiction and intended all the sickass radical body modification stuff to be scary, but he assumed that was obvious and forgot to put it in the actual text.

It's like the literary version of those breathless propaganda thinkpieces where they accidentally make their political opponents sound cool as hell because they have no idea how it reads to anyone whose brain hasn't spent the last thirty years being pickled in fear juice.

Also fun when an author goes at a premise completely straight-faced and serious but, because of how incredibly bass-ackwards conservative the premise is, the story reads almost like A Modest Proposal level satire.

good news. the things that used to upset me no longer upset me. bad news. i'm creating an army of bugs to hurt innocent bystanders

something has to be done about mormons this cannot continue

It’s literally just a religion like any other. Im sick of people acting like this about my culture

you gotta get outta there

i think methed-up-samurai is/was the closest homegrown equivalent to a lolcow this site has ever had. remember that week where he kept posting about his journey across Mexico to singlehandedly rescue some random woman from the cartel and the general consensus was that he was running around a random desert on meth and/or mescaline the whole time

that is incorrect, she was sold to pay off a drug and gambling debt by someone whom I left partially paralyzed. I believe he committed suicide with pills month's later

oh okay!

Honestly I think a lot of whatever jealousy Shane might feel towards Svetlana is alleviated the first time she calls Ilya “our boy” in conversation with him. I think the sheer euphoria of his partner’s closest friend since childhood acknowledging Shane’s significance to Ilya and that Ilya can/does belong to both of them at the same time would be like drugs to him. Like yes that IS our boy! #ourilya
