I hate it when I give a story too much credit.

“I wonder what the motivation for this character acting so inconsistently is?”

And then it turns out their motivation is that the writer is bad.

No, but it’s fucking weird, and I have a whole theory about this

children are a) a subjugated class of a particular character and 2) people. and I feel like I shouldn't have to explain to you why saying you "hate children" is extremely reactionary.

Like a lot of fascist shit, it’s funny at first and then scary.

[ID: a screenshot of the “Bad Art” coloumn of the table shown in the original tweet.

The sections are: “makes you feel weird”, “saps energy”, “sets off a downward spiral”, “confuses the mind”, “produces stagnation”, “weed” (as a drug analogy), “unstructured and obsessively anti-rhythm”, “instinctively recognised as a scam”, “a malevolently bad map”, “obfuscation, lies, resentment”, “wises to destroy the canon”, “mocks the concept of values”, “enfeebles life”, “spits on beauty and actively celebrates ugliness”, and “bad art is whining, coping, seething, and a waste of time”.

is he “trauma dumping” on you or have you just not unpacked what the patriarchy has taught you outside of “woman bad” and you think men expressing any kind of emotion or vulnerability is bad actually.

Look at that sexy person with a dot on their forehead. I think I’ll walk over and say hi. Oh look, they are walking towards me too.

Also, this post is making me realize I really should go LC or NC with my family. They aren’t as awful as the worst stories you hear, but they are also completely lacking in any positive qualities. I always feel worse after interacting with them. Always expecting them to be good, but always being disappointed is too painful.

Parents making fun of their own kids really do like, “lmao look at this guy who doesn’t know anything. If only there was someone out there to teach them and guide them. Sucks to be them I guess lol”

Read “Tyranny of Structurelessness” by Jo Freeman. It’s a great essay on this exact thing.

Your project team is organisationally flat? Cool – so is this a "we have a boss in practice, but their decisions can never be challenged or held accountable because nobody will admit that they're in charge" situation, or is it more of a "mission-critical tasks that nobody is excited about doing simply don't get done" sort of deal?

ultimately communists aren't even telling you not to vote, the point is that it is completely ineffective action. when you ask 'why shouldn't we vote? we can vote and do other stuff' it is as if you had been proposing prayer as a solution to fascism and scolding anyone who said otherwise - even if your argument is 'there's no reason not to try', it implies an incredible and grave misunderstanding of what is and is not an effective means of political action. like... sure. go ahead and pray, to god or to Democracy, and buy fair-trade while you're at it, but if we're being honest, here, I think the defensiveness over it shows not genuine faith, but a desperation to engage with a system that clearly does not work, but whose alternative appears scary and unclear to you.

i was reading about that influencer who groomed and trafficked several young women (not andrew tate) and most articles mainly focus on the "exciting" parts of kat torres' fancy lifestyle and the novelty of a beautiful lady pimp, but what stood out to me is that those women very explicitly said that the prostitution laws in texas were a major part of keeping them trafficked. the threat of their own criminalisation and the fact no one could be in any contact with them without risking a felony (letting an 'established prostitute' into your car can be enough) is what prevented them from escaping even after the abuse was so severe the grooming wasn't keeping them at heel anymore. it's been said many times but the way a sex trafficking victim can openly say the state's laws were aiding her trafficker and keeping her in that situation indefinitely if her family's efforts hadn't resulted in being rescued from the outside and it'll still be fully glossed over in all the discourse about the case is nuts. i can't think of a more dire indictment

people who are obsessed with actors and musicians (eg in their favorite bands. i do know composers.. but i rarely listen to music and if i do i do not look further into it) are perplexing to me. they’ll refer to whoever is in a film and im like literally who are any of those people, what are you talking about… i could not name 5 actors. it is simply not information i remember

Look at that fuckin outgroup member. Walkin around like the Other and shit. Everybody get him.
