i hate it when someone asks me what my favorite work of art is because i can't say "the one of the woman chilling on the rocks with a dragon lying in her lap and giving off powerful big dick energy" but how else am i supposed to describe it

statements like "It's wrong to masturbate about a person without their consent" and "It's wrong to do something that quietly arouses you while you are in public even if no one can see it" show that a person's understanding of morality basically involves magical thinking. like I wrote this post on the toilet. That's not the same thing as me literally shitting on you

Steve is a hand holder. He always been, always will be.

It’s not just a romantic thing, he loves to hold hands with everyone.

He loved holding his momma’s hand in the store when he was little. Walking beside her as they walked down each aisle, getting their groceries for the week.

The first time he held Robin’s hand was on the rooftop of the mall, scared out of his life.

Now they hold each other any time they can. Simple hand holding as they walk through the record store, a hand on the crook of the arm down the street, a strong embrace to help through nightmares.

He loved holding Nancy’s hand while dating. Just a simple gesture as they were in the hallway, talking with Carol and Tommy or with Barb.

Just a simple touch to say I’m here. I love you.

Or, he guessed, I loved you.

He remembers being in first grade, as much in love as he could at age 6 with this girl with wild hair and a gap tooth smile — missing one of her front teeth. She was older than him, a second grader, but he loved holding her hand nonetheless.

They shared a music class. Steve would sit next to her, hand extended and she’d take it without question.

He’d come up to her on the playground, she’d be talking to someone and he just slips his hand in hers. She’d squeeze back, deep in conversation about dragons.

He’d sit next to her at lunch, hand extended under the table. She’d tease him, “how you gonna eat without your right hand?”

“I’ll learn to use my left,” he said softly. Then she’d take his hand.

Then, as soon as he fell in love with her, she was gone.

Moved schools. Something about her momma.

Steve still thinks about her sometimes.

Sometimes he wonders what would’ve happened if she stayed.

But maybe it was for the best.

With how fucked up Hawkins is.

Steve feels a little selfish right now. Holding hands with anyone in the party that takes it. He’s solid, unmoved, and extended hand offering support to his younger friends — Dustin, Lucas, Erica. As if he’s trying to comfort them, but he takes the contact, grounding himself. Grounding his emotions.

One at a time, they’re allowed to visit Max or Eddie. It’s Lucas’s turn to visit Max. Steve’s turn to visit Eddie.

Steve sits on Eddie’s left side, free of his IV and other machines monitoring his health. He watches for a few moments, wishing that someone would come back and hold his hand.

He glances to the door before slipping his hand into Eddie’s. He squeezed gently.

Eddie squeezed back.

Steve looked up at Eddie’s face. A moment ago, unconscious, now half-lidded with a small smile.

Steve could almost imagine the gap in his front teeth.

“Not g’nna be able to use it,” Eddie murmured, squeezing gently.

“That’s fine,” Steve smiled back, feeling tears run down his face. “I’ll learn to use my left.”

Eddie shook his head, his lopsided smile still painted across his face, like he couldn’t believe it.

Steve couldn’t believe it either.

Steve brought their hands up to his lips, a gentle kiss against Eddie’s skin. “Found you,” Steve whispered. “I’m never letting you go.”

Now, a month out of the hospital, Steve doesn’t let go.

He slips his hand into Eddie’s any chance he gets. While Eddie’s deep in conversation, while Eddie is writing in his notebook or running a campaign. Just like he used to.

And every time, Eddie squeezes his hand back.

Just like he used to.

FINALLY got around to dumping Spotify after their CEO continued to prove he's a fresh turd. (As if being a billionaire, not paying musicians, shoving AI garbage at us, and having an atrocious carbon footprint wasn't bad enough, he's now the chair of a AI-based weapons manufacturing company.)

I used TuneMyMusic ($24 annual fee you can cancel immediately, effectively paying only once) to transfer almost every single song from our Spotify account to Tidal. Tidal already has much better sound quality and they pay their artists much better. It migrated over 99% of our music, too, so there wasn't a huge loss.

Okay so bad news for everyone on YouTube right now

Starting the 13th, we will have an AI determine if we are children or not and if you are a child, than you are forced to send your ID, send a selfie or a credit card

This has the obvious cons of having your privacy being revoked from you and and in case there is a security breach, major identity thefts.

So what do we do in this scenario?

Well right now I have real idea as this is relativity new to me, but I do have two plans

Plan 1. Bug the shit out of them, send letters and send emails about how much of bad idea this is.

Include why the AI will mess up and target adults who watch cartoons, include privacy issues, censorship issues, anything you can think of that relates to this. I want you guys to bug the hell out of YouTube until they reverse this idea

Plan 2. Blackout.

Since the thing is coming out on the 13th.

The plan will be to completely avoid YouTube at all cost for that day, no watching, no sharing, no uploading, no nothing.

Download videos before things go down, watch Netflix. Whatever you do, don’t touch YouTube.

That’s all I can say right now, I also want you guys to let YouTubers know of this situation cause if it’s important for everyone on the website to talk about this immediately

Spread this stuff around, let people know of YouTube’s upcoming policy and how it’ll hurt everyone
