Kelsier LordofScars the cat might allow me to do this, but he'd be so confused.

This is where the finance bros need to stop being so frelling divorced from the artistic side.

still not over the stephen colbert thing, the way they're punishing him so much by not only essentially firing him but cancelling the show he loves in its entirety, which means also punishing all 200 people who work for and with him on the show.

it is setting an example. it's saying, "this is what happens when you speak truth to power. we will not only punish you. we'll punish the people around you that you've led and loved. is it worth it now, stephen? would it be worth it, other late night talk show hosts? if you don't keep quiet, we will quiet you". the other late night talk show hosts are not all under paramount (iirc, it's just the daily show), but this sets a precedent that tells them they are all vulnerable.

"it's not a big deal" idk man it really seems like it is

If a minyan of Jewish Dancers were Moriss dancing for Passover, who would get the empty spot? Elijah? Winter? The Fae? Would they be during it out to settle this?

I'm seeing a moriss dance with a bunch of transparent fuckers fighting for the musical chairs equivalent of the Morris dance empty spot

If you add an 'h' just before the last 'o' in Ohio it becomes sacred on Roshar.

My dog's really a study in Buddhism. He can see my muffin wrapper and he's miserable. Crying. He needs to eat my muffin wrapper so bad.

I get up and throw it away. He forgets about it immediately and happily goes to sleep.

You are not sad because you do not have a muffin wrapper, my beautiful boy, you are sad because you want the muffin wrapper.

weaponizing someone's rape for internet points is about as low as it gets. not much higher is the continual willful ignorance that all humans are people. Granny Weatherwax's definition of Sin as treating others people like objects comes to the fore of my mind.

this feels like more of the continued antimodernists, regressive, Satanic-Panic-Don't-Trust ANY-NEIGHBOR/HUMAN-They-Are-All-Secretly-Ravening-Monsters (thanks hobbs) that is on it's like, twentieth, regiftwrapping, and it frustrates me that it keeps working

I lack the writing practice to do this, but can I get anyone to throw together a flashfic of what if Newt Gingrich hadn't shited the Republicans to full CIA Agitprop Language Usage by literally disseminating a memo instructing on the use of emotionally charged, semantically null language?

they Sapirr-Whorf'd the entire republican electorate into another perception of reality where words mean nothing and everyone wants to violate everyone else as much as possible and only Daddy's/OilyJosh'sBelt keeps everyone in line... because tell me you've never pulled through several weeks without water or power due to a natural disaster without telling me such...

I am so lucky to get to have two literary successors to Sir Pterry' Chair of the Humanities with Seanan and Brandon Sanderson, and both fandoms are just so much hopepunk.

@seananmcguire I've been eagerly reading Installment Immortality and just hit Mary talking to Elsie about moms... Thank you... I haven't cried like this in a long time, thank you.

These frellfolks today who scream

"only 2 genders! You must be hyper gender! but only these two poles!"?

the ones who seek to use ideological antiscience antimodernist ideas of gender to control of trans and other queer people through acts of State?

the ones where it feels like they lived though, & couldn't pull off, the androgyny of the 70‐80's, and thus are seeking to restrict everything they can't pull off once they get some power?

They are:

The Beau Brummells of Gender
