I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Digital artwork of Emet-selch, as he appears at the end of Shadowbringers. Fire from the recreation of Amaurot is behind him as he glowers at the viewer. He is cast in heavy shadow, highlighted by the fire light. His hand is pressed into his chest and he is grimacing, full of emotions.

I would have thought time might have mellowed her out some but I guess not. Still love her, don't get me wrong but.

Yeah.

I've been thinking about the phone call I had with my mom last night all day and it occurred to me that while I think fiction is fiction, my mom....does not lmao. She even referenced the whole 80's satanic panic with D&D so like. How could I convince her otherwise?

Anyway.

I have no interest in moving to another platform because I am tired of ceding digital ground but the change to community guidelines and the punitive abuses against innocent users by the moderators of a frankly insular, large forum sized platform does not inspire morale.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist):

the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much.

you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

I’ll go first: I haven’t seen Dirty Dancing.
