this is definitely NOT the moon girl episode with a trans character that disney shelved and has no plans on airing and i am definitely NOT advising you to spread it around like wildfire in retaliation to this stupid-ass chickenshit coward decision. i repeat, i am DEFINITELY not encouraging you to spread this episode around like crazy to show disney that trans people will not bow down to the whims of the people that want them dead. definitely DON'T do that. definitely

don't reblog THIS version of the post, since it definitely does not have a link to the archive upload of the episode that got shelved :)

Pete Buttigieg is a next-level public speaker.

A third-trimester abortion has to be the most devastating moment in a person's life.

Too many opponents of abortion will never process these situations. They will put themselves in someone else's shoes.

Alex Jones is livestreaming rn and for the first and only time in my life it's appointment viewing. He got evicted from his studio mid-stream and they had to cover for him when he popped up in his "satellite studio" (a room in his house I assume) devoid of the Infowars branding. He's talking about how "tens of millions" of people have watched his final broadcast & you can literally see he has far less than a million viewers in the bottom corner (and this is on Twitter, which inflates views of videos ever since Elon had to convince people anyway gives a shit about Tucker Carlson's livestreams). He's currently whining that they chose not to sell his site back to him at auction, so he could keep doing the crimes that are why he was selling his website.

I didn't see this personally but he's apparently read out the Onion's announcement, which is a fake article by a fake corporation, out loud several times as if it was real. Anyway it should be noted how screwed he is, bc...

...while he can livestream under his own name, they own his warehouses of dubious supplements. He has nothing to sell but t-shirts protesting that his show is going down. Since Infowars was, first and foremost, a lifestyle brand, this leaves him, scientifically speaking, "totally fucked". He doesn't have ads, that's the only way he makes money

He just promised that he will "win the information war" which. You were sued into oblivion for lying about the parents of murdered children & lost your platform so hard you don't even have a studio anymore & your brand was seized by a rival to make fun of you. I didn't think the Infowar was a real thing you could lose, but I'm not sure there's a more definitive way to lose the information war. Anyway he's now ranting about fluoride

Vacationing in the US

so Trump being a felon isn't actually the problem. you guys understand this right. it's the thing he did that got him charged with a felony that is upsetting, not the fact that he is technically a criminal. felons are not inherently worse people than non-felons. becoming a felon did not make him any less qualified than he already was. there are a quite lot of felons who would do a much better job at being president than Trump

Worth pointing out that in her capacity as VP Kamala Harris cast a tie breaking vote in the senate to save union pensions.

it's always a good day to complain about English speakers

Important addition: Maria Skłodowska-Curie was born during partitions, which means Poland didn’t exist, which means her insistence that she was Polish was a significant act of defiance against the occupation, which means that you should respect that instead of arguing that ‘well she had French citizenship’. She couldn’t have Polish citizenship despite being Polish, that’s kinda the point she was making by keeping her maiden name and naming a chemical element she discovered ‘Polonium’ .

HOW TO PRONOUNCE: Skłodowska

L with a dash through it (ł) makes a “W” sound. and W makes a “V” sound.

Thank you for the pronounciation guide instead of the condescending guilt trip

If you want people to change their behavior, a condescending guilt trip isn't the way.

Showing up on the internet to be a dick to people for not saying a name they've never heard before in a language they don't speak that uses letters they have no idea how to pronounce isn't going to help anyone get her name right. Saying, hey, here's her full name actually, and how to pronounce it and why it's important that you do!

And yes. I know the information is available out there. At any point in my life, I could have looked up Marie Curie and discovered that her full name was Maria Skłodowska-Curie and why it mattered.

But no one has time to thoroughly research every concept they come across. It's impossible. I can't read a biography about every historical figure to make sure I'm respecting them. Even if I tried, how many biographies are written by assholes who want to sensationalize and don't actually care about respect?

We can't help that our teachers didn't teach us her full name. Their teachers probably didn't teach them, either. Most English speakers I know would actually much rather use someone's correct name and pronounce it right. But Maria Skłodowska-Curie was shortened for us long before any of us were born.

did this morherfucker just make apples out of apples??

Yes. Yes he did.
