Now that it's officially autumn, it's time for me to celebrate Halloween with slightly more intensity than I do the rest of the year.

Reminder that the moment he trademarked the word, Jake actively pretended he had nooooo idea that his lawyer was sending C&Ds to anyone selling an "Inktober" book, even if they had been around for years, despite the fact lawyers don't just do things for free. He never actually recinded the C&Ds.

I don't think Bluesky is an echo chamber where everyone has the same opinion but I do think it's funny that today's main character has entirely united the timeline against them saying so

I really cannot stress enough that I would have killed for the right to safely dye my hair a funny color or play the girl character on the Nintendo when I was a kid. There was a brief sunshine period where bullying for this wasn't socially-acceptable, and they took that away. Unforgivable.

A more cynical view: the thing that all these "Bluesky is an echo chamber" takes leave out is that it makes an opinion columnist's job easier when they can just open up one app and see what people are fighting about they don't want you to be arguing for YOUR benefit but for THEIRS

There is a silencing that happens on and offline in which women internalize that we can’t be normal people who joke, observe, or snark about anything related to sex, no matter how public it is, w/o it turning into us being sexualized. (Insert Foucauldian reference to surveillance and discipline)

found a blog i hadn't stumbled onto before that has in-depth analyses of every x-files episode and spent the entire afternoon reading them and it is fucking wild that stuff like this is more or less all the internet used to be and a good 80% of what i used it for
