“if feminists want equality they should support women being drafted!” is one of the best examples of why it’s bad that feminism is misconceived as being about equality to men rather than liberation from men. men create war, men created the draft, we don’t want anything to do with it. I don’t want equal opportunity to be sent to war to harm women in other countries.
tired: let women be drafted uwu
wired: abolish the draft
inspired: abolish the military
True radical feminism. We’ve moved beyond “women are as good as men and can do the same jobs” to “actually, men ruin a lot of things, and we don’t need them to survive, thanks.”
THIS IS BRILLIANT.
I wish I could retroactively add the six different doctors who refused any surgical intervention relating to my uterus and/or ovaries between the ages of 16 and 30 “in case you change your mind about having children.”
how universal of an experience is having the giving tree read to you as a small child and being distraught even tho the teacher seemed to think it was a nice story. also is this a gendered phenomenon. do girlchildren know on some level that they’re the tree not the little boy
Children designated as “gifted and talented” frequently melt down because of this story. Boys and girls both. I’ve heard many G&T educators say they don’t bring The Giving Tree or The Rainbow Fish into their classrooms at all because of it.
Wow, what is it about gifted and talented kids that makes those stories hit them so hard?
Because those stories are innately about what to do with gifts and talents, and in the case of those particular books, children often interpret them as “give up all sense of self and bodily autonomy, and carve yourself to pieces to make other people like you.”
^ That last comment really succinctly illustrates 90% of my mental health issues.
Yesterday, I was in yet another deep spiral of self loathing, and the CORE of it stems from this very fucking message. If I’m not saying ‘yes’ to everyone, I’m selfish and mean. No one will love me if I say ‘no’. If I’m not valuable to others, I’m worthless. If I’m better than others at something, I can’t be proud of it, it would be rude. Give give give give give. I cannot make demands of others without feeling guilty. I can’t speak my mind against others. I freeze up. I tumble into depression and dark thoughts to the point where I cannot function. I have the worst form of imposter syndrome: Am I a nice person? I can’t be. A nice person would just suck it up and keep going. Stop complaining. This anger that you feel? It’s wrong. You have to forgive and shut up. Their feelings mean more important than your own. They said something terrible, it’s not their fault. It can’t be. They are stressed. If you stand up for yourself you are just ignoring their pain. You need to be the bigger person, even if it’s killing you.
The tree gives so much it destroys itself, and we as kids are taught
that self-destructive behavior that solely benefits others is not just admirable–it’s correct.

Flashpoint is archiving Flash games before they disappear forever • r/emulation
Since Adobe is basically killing flash games/movies by discontinuing the plugin a team of freelancers creator what amounts to a flash game emulator and are working on archiving as many flash games as they can for preservation before the sites hosting them start going down.
They already have 6GB of games in the current release of the archive and the download is here for those that don’t want to click on the Discord server in the Reddit thread:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jQ5yGlXzXcD4b-J1hHqais5R0rsT89ml/view
Moby blaster better be on there…
If it isn’t you can request it in the Discord server and provide a lead to help the people working on the archive track it down.
The dev that’s in the Reddit thread said they managed to track down an archive of some obscure game that isn’t been playable online for 11 years and get it patched up for the archive.
So nothing it out of bounds to ask for.
Wait what.
What’s happening with Flash?
Adobe is discontinuing the web plugin by 2020 and since it won’t be updated any longer many browsers are making plans to remove support for it.
So flash games are now at risk of facing a complete apocalypse and mass-extinction. This project is seeking to back-up and make playable on their own system as many as they can before the sites start going down.
They will pry Pony Generator and Sonic Snake from my cold, dead hands
Go to the discord and suggest them if they aren’t already in the archive
What is Adobe THINKING?!
They aren’t, apparently.
Since they’re basically making a boneheaded move that will kill an entire medium of online games by killing broswer-based flash,
SOMEONE SAVE THE SHOCKWAVE GAMES
It’s being worked on but there’s some weird quarks with how Shockwave works (like the engine being hard-coded to look for the projector in the default install location) that needs worked around somehow.

“I’m not suicidal. I can’t have depression.” Yes, you can.
“He’s never hit me. It can’t be abuse.” Yes, it can.

Star Wars: Episode IX Cast Announced | StarWars.com
Star Wars: Episode IX will begin filming at London’s Pinewood Studios on August 1, 2018. J.J. Abrams returns to direct the final installment of the Skywalker saga. Abrams co-wrote the screenplay with Chris Terrio.
Returning cast members include Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Lupita Nyong’o, Domhnall Gleeson, Kelly Marie Tran, Joonas Suotamo, and Billie Lourd. Joining the cast of Episode IX are Naomi Ackie and Richard E. Grant, who will be joined by veteran Star Wars actors Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, and Billy Dee Williams, who will reprise his role as Lando Calrissian.
The role of Leia Organa will once again be played by Carrie Fisher, using previously unreleased footage shot for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. “We desperately loved Carrie Fisher,” says Abrams. “Finding a truly satisfying conclusion to the Skywalker saga without her eluded us. We were never going to recast, or use a CG character. With the support and blessing from her daughter, Billie, we have found a way to honor Carrie’s legacy and role as Leia in Episode IX by using unseen footage we shot together in Episode VII.”
when i say “i hate men” im not talking about every individual man in the world, im talking about men as a social class, but if youre the kind of man that gets offended when i say i hate men then i do, specifically, hate you on an individual level
