zut alors!!!

Why does this have its own wikipedia page.

not only does it have a wikipedia page, but they actually discussed deleting it and elected to keep it because they agreed it was sufficiently notable to merit an article.

at some point it became a very common talking point that science fiction and fantasy ought to Represent Trans People and that exploring Weird Gender Shit without also depicting characters who are legibly transgender in Normal Ways is passé. and honestlyyyy i don't care give me a hundred more male characters possessed by female ghosts or nonbinary robots or whatever. literally what is the point of the scifi fantasy genre if you cannot connect to the fantastical

if i wanted to read about people being transgender without a wizard being involved i would open my tumblr dash. Representation will kill the reader she needs a guy who accidentally downloaded the memories of a woman on the CyberLine and can't tell them apart from his own to live

"Play toys with me or you're gay"

Just came home from a dinner party with the friendgroup at which several people kept saying "Ask Pedro" or "Pedro will know" and I was terrified that they were referring to an AI like Claude but no, thank fuck, they were referring to a cardboard cutout of Pedro Pascal that someone left upstairs and who has been designated a kind of patron saint status in the household.

Contrary to popular belief the biggest beginner's roadblock to art isn't even technical skill it's frustration tolerance, especially in the age of social media. It hurts and the frustration is endless but you must build the frustration tolerance equivalent to a roach's capacity to survive a nuclear explosion. That's how you build on the technical skill. Throw that "won't even start because I'm afraid it won't be perfect" shit out the window. Just do it. Just start. Good luck.

My little brother got a copy of the art of war by sun tzu for Christmas and I'll never know peace again

He flipped it open and said "let me read you the introduction: (record scratch) Yep, that's me. I bet you're wondering how I ended up in this situation-"

He keeps opening it and pretending to read quotes that are definitely not from the art of war he just hit me with "was that the bite of '87??? Sun Tzu said that."
