like having normies in your circles makes you realize how little they know of subcultures. literally they will go "thats so wild/weird/gross/niche" and its fucking people they found out about shipping and creating work for some ass ship (stucky/gelphie/etc)
and its like you want that in your spaces?

saw this stupid ass post saying how normies should get into ao3 so they could shame people for liking the problematic kinks.
Im like fucking you're already a causal in fandom but literally 'normal people' think participating in fandom is 'weird shit' and 'grow out of it'

it’s always a lovely day when people realize weirdos are the backbone of any fandom and trying to make everyone “normal” kills everything enjoyable about it. fandom wouldn’t exist if people could be normal about things.

It'll never be lost on me that a particular subset of the liberal commentariat in both North America and Western Europe were deeply infatuated with this woman up until the very moment she decided to talk about that one issue you're still basically not allowed to talk about lol.

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

Israel accused of detaining Greta Thunberg in infested cell and making her hold flags

I'm down to 9 copies of the Pinoy Monster Lover Anthology After Dark, which isn't surprising given its popularity, but still 😅 I was hoping I could hold off on the reprint until after we fund the horror anthology.

Given how fast it goes, however, it's definitely worth getting done asap 👀🔥

reading this was such a fucking nightmare, its like people around 30 - 40s who are just going "I was warned of social media and I wasn't prepared for this. i dont want to disappoint my kids. I'll keep using this thing that is negatively affecting them" Like holy shit be a fucking parent. REMOVE IT.

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

reminder that Canada is actually notoriously bad for unions because the government is actually top of the list for union busting.
currently many unions are protesting and its stepping in to side witj corporations.

SeaDeepSpace @seadeepspace.bsky.social · 11d

Please if you are Canadian support and make noise at your MP for the lack of justice and what Carney is doing to the service is awful. The corporation has literally made sure to waste money and treat their workers like shit. Don't be upset with the workers asking for a contract for the last 10 years

Julie S. Lalonde @julieslalonde.bsky.social · 13d

I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service.

Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

animation workers are told make faces in the mirror&act it out no doubt. but like its a different brand of filming a whole thing on your own to act it out when you would get hired help for it. and its just like jfc how much jobs are gonna make one do in the industry and not match the $ $$

SeaDeepSpace @seadeepspace.bsky.social · 9d

when you're watching bts for old animated movies. you also realize how much fucking more work they put on animation people now.
I am like they use to hire people to act out things for animation and now its up to the animators act it out too. I am like dawg they really do job creep the most.

"you can't joke about trans people or they will cancel you!!!!!"
You are literally being paid a million dollars to censor yourself or pretend to think its free speech over there.
When you fucking get your check shut the fuck up about how "the left" is the reason you are "cancelled"

speaking of censorship I really find it funny as fuck as the people who love to claim they are being told they aren't allowed to do comedy anymore are going to do riyadh comedy festival where THEY KILL JOURNALISTS LOL

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

"Its just flyers" Thats because of the corporation and you CAN opt out of the flyers system.
The CEO of Canada post has done nothing but make mail more miserable for everyone. Not to mention the predatory practices of the supervisors/managers where they force unsafe and contract breaking work

some people engage with media, esp indie media, not to better understand it as the creator intends, but with the goal of being THE BEST AND MOST CORRECT FAN

and when you're not correct anymore, this means the creator has hurt you! personally! by making you wrong

...you see how this sounds?

Most of all they are going to cut a 30,000 work force that is already badly and understaffed to 15,000 because they want to make it gig workers to break the union to make it easier to abuse/underpay/lack of rights to future people.
To make a job that you could make a living and make it obsolete

The stewards can only do so much -Literally they will have a supervisor unpunished as they STAND OUTSIDE THE WOMEN'S BATHROOM WATCHING THEM GO IN AND OUT.
Hanging basically supervisors who SHOULD BE doing their jobs basically STAND in front intimating them making two people do a four person job
