I don’t even like Yuri on Ice but yeah, you dodged the bullet Psycho Pass and Darker than Black didn’t. Some series only work as single seasons.

Don't cry because Yuri on Ice is dead. Smile because it ended before the studios could ruin it.

“Look, kid, what you tell people is ‘It’s the Chinese word for moon’ and you don’t elaborate.”

I met a fourth grader and her name was yue, and she was like ‘yea I’m named after a character from avatar the last air bender cause my parents are huge nerds’ and all I said was ‘that’s rough buddy’ and she beamed at me and I’m pretty sure I made her day lmao

Vriskinnie said a few weeks ago that Rich Kyanka warged himself into Elon after his death, and

When making fun of AI art people will always jump to the hands or the weird misplaced limbs, and rightfully so. But to me the thing that stands out about AI art, especially sci-fi AI art, is that AI is incapable of visual storytelling and making purposeful design decisions. Sci-fi art at its best is really good at letting designs tell stories and AI will never be capable of doing.

This actually looks like a great idea.

Do you have a master list of Articles or recommendations of books that correct the common mischaracterization of the needle ages?

Not like a master list but Regine Pernoud’s Those Terrible Middle Ages is a good overview of the main misconceptions. Her Women in the Days of the Cathedrals specifically addresses medieval women’s rights, too. You also might want to look up Stanley Jaki’s The Origin of Science and the Science of Its Origin, which talks about medieval scientific and technological achievements.

Citizens United was not a corporation. They were a nonprofit that criticized Hillary Clinton. She tried to claim political activists only have free speech as individuals not collectively.

Ruling the other way in Citizens United would effectively make it illegal for anyone but the independently wealthy to do things like purchase ads, because they have to combine their resources. It would also ban class-action suits and collective bargaining.

Try to hold your breath next time you’re licking the boots, clearly the polish is bad for your brain.

IIRC, it was originally an insult but got “slur reclamation”-ed in record time.

Please boost for sample size

LBJ also said that, with the War on Poverty, he would “have them n*****s voting Democrat for the next 200 years”.

So go fuck yourself.

THE SECRET OF THE GOP/MAGA, WHITE CONSERVATIVES, WHITE CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS APPEAL TO TRUMP AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!

“If we have to live in a cyberpunk dystopia can we at least use more neon in our decorating?”

They are spending billions of dollars and engaging in social engineering just to make you seem like a crazy asshole for thinking things that are obviously correct btw

It’s a pun a grade-schooler could get: “things the 1980s thought were cool”. I.e. “rad”.

Completely went over your head though, huh?

it’s so sad that radfem means radical feminist instead of meaning women in skin tight clothes that symbolize the start of modern diet culture!

Okay, sure, as long as you also agree we can’t trust the female suicide attempt statistics.

Which ignore the fact that, not having succeeded, you can attempt again; often count injuries that could be from suicide attempts as if they are from suicide attempts; and—most relevant to your psychotic self-righteous posturing—ignore the fact that a lot of “suicide attempts” are manipulation by emotional abusers…who are six to eight times as likely to be female.

A man in Barcelona just killed his wife and his 2 children, and killed himself later. This happens all the time. Don't trust the male suicide statistics, because they include shit like this.

Yeah but see nobody says that’s the problem with feminist books. The problem with feminist books is they’re willfully mendacious agitprop by demented hypocritical bigots.

I can’t emphasize “hypocritical” enough. Simone de Beauvoir groomed her students for her boyfriend and advocated decriminalizing rape and abolishing the age of consent.

That is all you need to know about feminism as a movement in the real world.

All identity politics acts like Nazism: “We are for Europeans and the purity of the European race, and hate those evil Semites…also we buddy up to Arabs whose ancestors imported millions of European women and used them in human captive breeding programs.”

”if you keep reading those feminist books it’s gonna make you angry!”

i was already angry anyways, i’m j able to describe it more effectively and i don’t think that’s a loss at all
