Come Along, Friends

I think a lot of you understand oppression as "how many people are mean to you online" and not like. A systemic thing that affects all facets of one's life.

surprisingly forward-thinking of jim henson and co. to make a female character in the 70's that's allowed to be loud-mouthed and violent and kind of overwhelmingly romantic and even a huge bitch at times and not have a moment where any character asks her to change

going through all the muppet movies in a row made me realize that like. miss piggy was made in the 70's. and it's so rare even today to have a character like her. she's loud, she's selfish, she's funny, she's extremely vain, she's obsessed with romance, she's violent, she's kind of annoying, and there's not a single moment in any of these films where she's asked to tone down any of these personality traits. i am not joking when i say that miss piggy might be one of the best treated female characters ever written

magical girl shows are good because their attacks will be something like "super love sunshine friendship beam" but make no mistake, super love sunshine friendship beam WILL end you. super love sunshine friendship beam will leave a crater in the ground where you once stood. you cannot understimate the power of super love sunshine friendship beam.

super love sunshine friendship beam violates the Geneva Convention

You are jus t pissed off because you do not have A rock to wind a piece of string around . Grow up

it seems like in bdsm the "rewards" and the "punishments" look very similar. this concerns me a great deal, because it points to a system of misaligned incentives. if we're not careful, it's even possible that a rational actor could deliberately violate regulations, because the penalties for rule violations are in fact incentivized. one shudders to think of the consequences of such an arrangement

you are doing ghost of christmas past torment to me

just saw the funniest thing on twitter where someone was broken up with bc they ate 7 croissants im CRYINGGGG

more than anything i want a world where a trans girl realizing she is a trans girl faces zero fear from that realization and subsequent coming out. Where she can say "Oh sweet, I can just be a girl? Sign me up!", no worrying if shes girl enough, no worrying if society will accept her, no worrying if she'll be an attractive girl as she transitions, no worrying at all in any way shape or form.

Idea for a new Batman story: Bruce Wayne reads one of those "Why doesn't Bruce Wayne just use some of his rich money to fix all the bad stuff" internet posts and is like "What the hell, I'll give that a shot" and starts opening a bunch more co-ops and mutual aid societies and whatnot, and then the excitement and action is him trying to dodge the team of CIA assassins who are trying to kill him and have it ruled a suicide. Batman has to figure out a way to stop the GabbaGhoul from poisoning all the cured meats in Gotham or wtf ever bullshit while billionaire philanthropist Bruce Wayne is called to testify before HUAC.

That is. Not the caption I was expecting
