in this post Jean Rollin world, we need people like Sara to keep talking about lesbian vampires because I fear otherwise no one else will...

I think there’s a broad swath of progressives that are left of Dems but right of socialists that consider all materialism to be vulgar materialism, I.e., they think that you believing material reality affects material reality means there is no room for culture or ideas

Complaining about "tankies" or even needing to go "Oh so you support STALIN?" is so fucking funny to me right now! Like yeah buddy I'm really nervous about the authoritarian left this second! They certainly seem to have unlimited power right now.

Since I seem to be grumbling about specious demands for accuracy (in a desperate attempt to avoid work at my day job) I might as well go on to grumple about maps in fantasy novels. 1/x

This is as much the era of MCU good guys will save us pornography as “aspirational” bad guys. Hear me out, how about instead of asking artists to take on the responsibility of guiding society toward virtue we put money into our schools and go back to teaching media literacy and the humanities.

Hunter is the only bad game line in The World of Darkness and I am completely and 100% right about this.

People having to go "That transcript of the European reporter and Pete Hegseth is a fake! You can't fall for it!" is really funny! Mostly because it's real funny imagining the type of person who got REALLY HYPED for that transcript in the first place.

I also think people who harp on this stuff a lot are doing some very annoying American-Coded "I enjoy the concept of a left wing coalition but not TOO left wing" Which you know always winds up biting you in the ass because it turns out the average person has absolutely baffling ideology.

I was enough of a junior dork at age 12 to seek out Neuromancer because I just saw The Matrix and thought it was really cool. Real thankful for that! Also a real good example of "You don't have to avoiding reading cool stuff if you want somethin more grown up"

Willa Fitzgerald is honestly neck-and-neck with Katy O'Brian right now in terms of "up-and-coming actresses I would walk across broken glass for" She's so fucking good in Strange Darling! And I already had a thing for her in Reacher. Honestly really into her also being from Tennessee...

Also…psst, not all women like romantasy and find the “spaces” it creates to be far *less* welcoming compared to the sff of our elder sisters (who have always been there, claiming the space) and contemporaries who are doing something different, less trendy/mainstream, and yes, still sexy. 🤗

This alone makes me so very happy! I have been reading James Enge for years and think he's frankly just ONE OF THE BEST currently doing it! Makes me real happy when I see a magazine like NESS carry his work.

Legitimately not joking when I say any left-wing movement needs to really think of a world where they're the only ones allowed at the levers of power.
