saw an episode of Kitchen Nightmares where Gordon sadly complained about how hungry he was after the tasting phase of the episode like yeah man every single place you go to you pick at your food for five minutes, take one bite and say "Absolutely Horrid. Take back this entire plate." you should've brought some granola bars or some shit you've been expecting this
it does kind of slaughter me a little bit every time i'm reminded of how near-universally associated slenderman is with the phrase "collect my pages" when the fundamental conceit of the game being referenced is that slenderman will hunt you down with murderous intent if you so much as go near his pages
The fight against Trumps Transphobic EO has already started.
A transgender woman who is in a federal women's prison has sued the Trump administration over the “two sexes” executive order, saying it will require her to be housed in a men’s prison, putting her in danger and violating her constitutional rights.
The woman, identified by the pseudonym Maria Moe, filed the suit Sunday in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts. It names Donald Trump as a defendant, along with Acting Attorney General James R. McHenry III and William W. Lothrop, the acting director of the Bureau of Prisons. She is represented by GLBTQ Legal Advocates and Defenders, the National Center for Lesbian Rights, and the law firm of Lowenstein Sandler.

“Look at me, I’m a grad student! I’m thirty years old and I made six hundred dollars last year!”
this one liberal dude on twitter made the (correct) take that parents have overwhelming power over their kids and very often abuse it and restrict children's rights and he was ratio'd by conservatives, communists and liberals alike who made comments like "my kids will have rights when they pay the bills" to "aw are you upset mom and dad didn't you get you a lega set for christmas". way to prove his point lol! any criticism of the power dynamics adults and particularly parents have over kids and how it is often used to abuse kids or refuse to let them exist as themselves is drowned in mockery and the idea that parents have absolute authority over children and that any less than that is actually spoiling them.
i said it before: people only care about Children as an ideal. as property. as something that is Innocent and deserving protection From Evil Traffickers but also something Dumb that barely deserves the status of human with autonomy. and its fucking wild how even the staunchest communists think of this as normal, and how people refuse to understand that this dynamic is how kids are emotionally, physically and sexually abused, as well as robbed of their voices and too scared/ashamed to talk about it.
I dreamed that I was playing mariokart and there was a track that took 3 days to complete and when I somehow managed to get 1st place a popup came onscreen that had a pic of koopa troopa and text that read “congratulations!! you’re gonna have so much sex” and I started laughing so hard I woke up

found out that the original "grandma got run over by a reindeer" song occasionally dips out of its goofy premise to get weirdly grim and real. hearing the second verse with no santa references that's all about the family dealing with the aftermath of her death ("it's not christmas without grandma") and thinking about my own fears of losing my loved ones and being too embarrassed to explain to my concerned friends why i ran out of the room in tears in the middle of a holiday party
