I feel so many feelings about Rocky during the first contact. He wants to connect SO BADLY. Do Eridians have horror stories about scary aliens? If they do, Rocky doesn't care. He wants this alien to be friendly. He does everything he can to accommodate. Here, a little gift I'm sending your way at the speed you're comfortable with. Please be there. Here, the next gift is going right into your airlock so that it's easier for you to catch. Please don't fly away. You made a strange gesture with your limb, I'll make my robot make that gesture back. Please belive that I'm friendly. Here's a tunnel to connect us, I'll make sure you can breathe in it. Please come meet me. I'll let you choose the material for the wall separating us; I'll rebuild the whole wall if it makes you more comfortable, no trouble, just please let's talk. You're all alone on your ship, I can hear it, please come sleep here where I can watch you, it's unsafe for you to be alone. I'm alone and scared, it's been 46 years since I felt safe while sleeping, please please please watch me sleep too. I'm very vulnerable when I sleep and I trust that you won't use it against me. I want to visit your ship, am allowed, question? I'm moving in with you. Let's save the stars.

playing with someone’s tits over a fishnet top adds texture and joy for the cultured lesbian

Absolutely love how emotionally aware my child is for a 4 and a half year old do not however love stubbing my toe on the island for the 100th time today and hearing "hey mama it's okay to cry! It's not okay to throw a fit though, and we hafta re-...we have to reconitize the difference"

The hatemail game on this website is insane

I do not agree with veganism as a moral standard. If it is your personal moral stance, that is fine. If you think humans eating meat is inherently immoral, I don’t want to deal with you, you’re hopeless. Vegan ideology behaves more like a sect of evangelical Christianity than a dietary choice.

Veganism is better for the environment, but claiming that it's a morally superior choice ignores cultural and economic factors that make people eat animal products.

It is not inherently better for the environment. That is the thing. When you begin trying to explain that local, sustainably sourced animal protein is better for the environment than imported plant proteins that are farmed 3,500 miles away using slave labor, they start tuning you out. Down is better for the environment than polyester stuffing, leather is better for the environment than pleather. We should work on making animal agricultural practices more sustainable instead of trying to shame everyone into eating plant products that are also farmed unethically and unsustainably.

do you ever read a ‘callout post’ where the summary on top is like ‘they EAT BABIES and RUN A COFFEE SHOP FOR MURDERERS and they HATE GAY PEOPLE’ and then you scroll down and actually read the post and it’s like, they posted about lamb chops once, they work at starbucks and one time someone who killed someone had a coffee at that starbucks, and they made a ‘fruit (derogatory)’ joke once

some of the time it’s this, some of the time it’s shit like “six in-depth paragraphs about problematic opinions on Steven Universe followed by an offhand mention of the time they faked their own illness and death in order to pose as their own fictional partner and crowdfund medical and funeral expenses”

Shitven universe is full of problematic writing though. It is a problematic show. Large perceptage of post calling it out are not problematic.

No offense, but if someone is committing real world crimes, I could not give one molecule of a shit about their opinions on a children’s show about rocks that sing and punch each other. Do not bury receipts of actual crimes or dangerous behaviors under punchy rock discourse. Too many times I have seen callout posts about genuinely reprehensible things “padded” heavily with trivial greviances about liking the wrong cartoons. If I have to scroll through your essay about [spins wheel] rock boobies to get to the sexual assault receipts then your callout fucking sucks and you should be ashamed.

It’s just fiction is not an excuse for bad writing. It’s not an excuse for tell children abusive family should be forgiven, that genocidal nazis should be forgiven, or that mental illness is harmful to everyone around them. Contrary to what people on the internet tell you. Fiction reflects reality and vice versa. The excuse that they are completely exclusive is ignorant at best. What you enjoy and produce content about says a lot about you and what you believe, and is worth self reflection when callled out that what you like is reflective of you.

IF YOU STAB SOMEONE TO DEATH IN AN IKEA YOUR OPINIONS ON PINK DIAMOND COULD LITERALLY NOT BE LESS RELEVANT

Queer joy detected!

Some is better than none. Some is better than none. Some is better than none. Walking for three minutes, is better than nothing. Drinking a glass of water and eating a snack, is better than nothing. Wiping down the counter, is better than nothing. Small things are not nothing. Small things are not nothing. Small things are not nothing. You don’t have to achieve grand things if all you’re capable of right now is the smaller things. They are still achievements. Don’t do nothing just because you don’t think you’re capable of doing bigger things, just do something you’re capable of today.
