"take all the time off you need!"

For fuck’s sake!

“Critical Race Theory” is not taught in any Virginia public schools — yet Republican Glenn Youngkin (Trumpkin) has made it the centerpiece of his race-baiting campaign for governor.

Trumpkin shouts “Critical Race Theory!” all the time because he is unable to shout “n----r!  n----! n----r!” in 2021.

Juan Williams: 'Parents' rights' is code for white race politics

Virginia Republicans are back with a new and improved ‘Culture Wars’ campaign for 2021. The closing argument is once again full of racial division — but this time it is dressed up as a defense of little children.

The rallying cry is ‘Parents’ Rights.’

It is not long ago that racist southern politicians rallied against integration with an argument for “states’ rights,” a call to be free of federal laws calling for an end to segregation.

Now the message is that white parents are being ignored when they complain that their children are uncomfortable learning about racism.

But it kind of bugs me when people new to fandom go straight to ao3. I know Wattpad isn't what it used to be, so not many people even know about it.

But it bugs me when people are new and like "where do I start?" Where do you start??? Not even talking about the tags and the archival system. "Where do you start"??? Are you not in a fandom already? Do you not know what to read? Do you need to ask ChatGPT to think for you, too?

I remember being an awkward preteen and then teenager. But I also have a brain, and knew/know what I like. And discovered fanfics through fandom! I saw someone on tikto who seemed like they were discovering fandom through fanfic, and that just makes no fucking sense to me 🥲.
