Wait fajitas are woke? My Super-Conservative dad was ordering those from Chevys and On The Border on the regular when we went out to eat when I was a kid! To think my Rush Limbaugh-loving Dad was secretly a woke antifa super soldier this whole time...

Oh yeah, I tend to avoid modern American military movies for the jingoism and racism almost all of them tend to wallow in, my post was more about the implication someone launched a nuke IRL until it mentions the movie near the end of the tweet.

This has backfired, because for efficiencies sake, I should kill them so Agrias and Mustadio can inherit their crystals, but they are my friends and I don't want to :(

Petra has a big fluffy bunny tail, as do all Viera in my canon. They also have the tendency to stomp their feet when angry and do the bunny flop when they feel safe, happy, and relaxed. She also gain the ability to purr and meow from her Miqote parent!

I know it's been asked before, but I wanna talk about it: what did YOU the player change/add to the race you play outside of canon? Can be an expansion of existing lore or something you just made up because it's fun~

With MAGA and the Saudi Royals taking EA, it's nice to see Paralives shaping up to be a solid replacement for The Sims. Really cute bedroom and solid-looking building tools!

SWIFT: Trav, honey?
KELCE: (looks up from first edition Krazsnahorkai in original Hungarian) (pauses rare Steve Reich LP, Japanese pressing) Yes?
SWIFT: What rhymes with "thighs"?
KELCE: Hmm. "Belies," perhaps?

Listen, if you did not master the art of writing a paper between 2-4 hours before it was due on 2 hours of sleep while hopped to the gills on your stimulant of choice, did you even get a college degree?

Dane 🔜 NYCC AA L-34 @monkeyminion.com · 1d

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

I've heard every "we have to hit them where it hurts" argument in the book, and none of them are beating the allegations that people just want to make fun of fat bodies.

You are telling every fat person in your life that they disgust you, that their bodies are comical or degenerate or useless. You are telling every fat person in your life you don't respect them.

Eight thousand iterations of this discourse later, there is no political utility in calling fascists fat. All you're doing is propping up the brutal hierarchy which lets people like them work up from deniable social torture to state violence.
