One of the reasons i love tolkien is the theme that despair is an enemy

and it makes clear you don’t need to have constant hope, you can get by with grim determination or spite but never despair

You can be as terrified or nonplussed or unperturbed as you like; the sun will still rise tomorrow & the rent will still be due on the 31st. The world has no romantic narratives for its fate except those we invent, because the world does not die. That is our privilege.

The Fig Economy @figgityfigs.bsky.social · Dec 30

I said it elsewhere, but it’s weirdly exhilarating and addictive to be terrified all the time, and the people addicted to it, when they say this, may as well be saying “I can stop at any time, it’s just the world doing this *to* me.”

It's INCREDIBLY hard to be a woman streamer online.
There's so much harassment.
It's not easy money to just be a woman and stream 😭
Shit is scary

It's hilarious how these guys say that.
When the stats and clearly social media shows that all the famous streamers are men.
Because men hate on women streamers non stop.
get outta here with this nonsense

Someone's about to get rich on Twitch.

He is controlling the AI and he is overlayed with her image

The stunts DeSantis pulls go national, but the ways that local governments are fighting back and demonstrating that the state isn't what DeSantis wants everyone to believe it is never gets nearly as much traction, and it's keeping people in a constant state of panic.

I'm getting tired of clickbait fearmongering about queer people in Florida getting posted to Reddit and making everyone panic for bullshit reasons.

Especially since all of reddit is convinced that the dumpster fire that is Tampa Pride was telling the truth about why they canceled next year's event.
