I don't think we should start making stuff up, I think truth matters personally. They need to make things up because they have no factual basis for what they say and believe. We're right, we don't need to do that. If it's a race to the bottom for who can make up the most fake stuff and get people to believe it, I don't think that's a world you are gonna enjoy living in.

Nope, thankfully been fine meeting people through life or interests.

Damn, don't even need any of that stuff to meet people. I see the genocide is really taking its toll on 'ol Kuntless.

Someone needs to save them from the constant abuse of going to the movies and being out in public with friends having a great time.

STOP THE GENOCIDE NOW!!!!

Yeah, and it's not that uncommon. Lots of "social clubs" style groups have dues and stuff to keep the clubs going. I sang in a chorus for a few years, briefly joined a hiking club, I have a membership at a shared studio space that frequently hosts membership events. Stuff like that.

Wonder why you don't see shit like this when people have to sign up to AMC+ via Peacock or whatever the fuck. Sometimes I'll just say fuck it and not bother, but I'm not crying on the internet about it or review-bombing...*checks latest hit AMC+ show*...Interview with the Vampire, I guess.

Wonder if the trans mafia will admit they have been defending/hiding a pedo now?

[Boredfrom]

Why yes of course I recall what I did or didn't do, when I was 4. I definitely knew I was a woman with a cock, so I fucking know I never said 'fabulous!'.#hatemydad

I found funny how she is bitching about stereotypes and remembering them wrong… but the actual “meat” against Musk (“he was never there and, when he was, he acted like an asshole dad.”) is reduced to a casual mention.

I don’t doubt that Musk is an awful dad (even if he is willing to spoil his children like going to League/DOTA tournaments and all that) but she seems like text book example of milestone transexual on the net.

Anyway, you need an special talent to be more unsympathetic that PostGrimms Elon Musk.

"I still believe I am not a grooming victim" 

Welp, glad Lava cleared this up via reaffirmation. It's all just a typical transphobic hate campaign.

Anyway, have you seen where Elon's daughter posted, bravely, "I don't like what you said, and disagree". Pop OFF, sis!

Hey guys, while you're all maxing out donations to Kamala, don't forget MUTUAL AID for trans community members like games journalist Ana Valens. 🙏

Heya! My name is Ana Valens, I'm a journalist, VTuber, and audio content creator who recently left the games media industry. And I am very, very burnt out.

If I'm being honest, I've been struggling with burn out since well before 2021. I went hard -- really hard -- as a journalist at Daily Dot, and as a freelancer before that. When I made the switch over to GAMURS as a managing editor for We Got This Covered, I burnt out within my first few months. Even in my last job as an editorial strategist, fatigue, anxiety, depression, they were all knocking at the door day by day.

Things increasingly deteriorated at GAMURS (you can read about this at Aftermath here , which describes the company as "hell" and "a race to the bottom"), where I was switched over to an SEO/news writer. There, I couldn't hit my 4x article per day quota, and no job to stave off burn out existed for me as an alternative. No extended or medical leave was an option, either, as I was told time off would ultimately lead to the same path: Being put on a performance improvement plan. I was given an option to end up on a PIP without severance, or quit and take severance.

So I quit.

And I've been grinding out my content creation career ever since, creating video essays and audio content for my fans, putting all my energy toward the only job I can bear to have while carrying half a decade's worth of burn out on my back.

I've been blessed with early success (and a growing income), but I still need support. I'm not making enough yet to actually, sustainably pay my bills. Which are expensive, living in NYC! I'm close to depleting my savings. I haven't been able to take time to rest and recover, which gets in the way of working. Due to the state of the larger media landscape, freelance media jobs are particularly difficult to acquire and low paying. And taking them is often robbing Peter to pay Paul, hurting long-term income.

These days, I wake up every morning frightened the money won't be there in time, that I'll lose everything once my savings are gone. I have no additional safety net, nowhere else to go. There won't be a future left for me once that happens. I literally have no idea what I will do.

I could really use some help just as things come together. A dollar goes a long way to pay the bills, provide some remaining safety net, and just make sure I can get an occasional day off or two. As my VTuber income begins to become a full-time, sustainable income, anything extra from my GoFundMe will go to time to rest and recover from burn out.

Thank you all for the support and for shares. ILU <3

Hi all!! Thank you SO SO MUCH to everyone who's donated ;w;. We're very, very close to hitting $3k! Literally just a couple hundred dollars away, which is nuts to think about.

If you could boost &amp; share to Twitter, IG, etc, I think we might hit the goal before the month ends.

Thanks again for your generosity and support over the past couple days. Y'all are wonderful, it means the world to me to have your donation at this time.

With love,

Ana

To be real, no amount of money can ever substitute for the presence of an involved parent (which I may never be able to believe Elon was). 

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

As I get older, I find myself morphing into one of those it-takes-a-village people. It's astounding how immediate and positive the impacts are when both parents are active in a child's life, and this effect magnifies when you factor in the presence of other valuable* adults like grandparents, aunts/uncles, older cousins, family friends, teachers, etc.

I do agree that the online discourse around this shit is confused beyond recovery though. The superhero single parent who can model all visions of adulthood simply can't exist, and that fantasy isn't fair to kids or single moms (or dads, or whomevers). 

*valuable defined as: safe, trustworthy, non-internet-brain-poisoned, knows how to engage appropriately with children without being patronizing or dismissive. Endangered species, I do admit.

Thread title: Elon Musk's trans daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, absolutely eviscerates him on Threads after he deadnames and misgenders her in interview and Twitter

Elon's Post:



Elon's kids response:

"This is entirely fake. Like, literally none of this ever happened. Ever. I don't even know where he got this from. My best guess is that he went to the Milo Yiannopoulis school of gay stereotypes, just picked some at random and said "eh- good enough" in a last-ditch attempt to garner sympathy points when he is so obviously in the wrong even in his own fucking story."

"I did not have a "love of musicals & theatre" when I was four, because y'know… I was fucking four. I did not know what these things were. My earliest real experience with musicals was when my twin brother had a hamilton phase in 8th/9th grade and overplayed it so much in the car to the point where for a long time I swore off the entire genre."

"I never picked out jackets for him to wear and I was most certainly not calling them "fabulous" because literally what the fuck. I did not use the word fabulous when I was four because once again I would like to reiterate… I was four. Like this is so obvious I don't even think it warrants explanation but apparently people believe this nonsense so here I am."

"This entire thing is completely made up and there's a reason for this. He doesn't know what I was like as a child because he quite simply wasn't there, and in the little time that he was I was relentlessly harassed for my femininity and queerness. Obviously he can't say that, so I've been reduced to a happy little stereotype f*g-ing along to use at his discretion. I think that says alot about how he views queer people and children in general."

"As for if I'm not a woman… sure, Jan. Whatever you say. I'm legally recognized as a woman in the state of California and I don't concern myself with the opinions of those who are below me. Obviously Elon can't say the same because in a ketamine-fueled haze, he's desperate for attention and validation from an army of degenerate red-pilled incels and pick-mes who are quick to give it to him. Go touch some fucking grass✨"

TL;DR:

People should still respect single mom/dad parents but is clear to me that a family unit is the ideal. It shouldn’t be forced, mind you, but absolutely helps the child development. 

I love my mother for trying to rise after dad died, but it was difficult as hell and I m not exactly in a ideal place of life. Still, in the end this are my decisions on life the reason why I’m in the place I’m am, but another parental figure would have helped.

What if my only ability is shitty furry porn and my needs are a luxurious lifestyle with free everything? 

Huh? 

thread's been moving fast for the last few days but this is a good post

it feels like what era types and other internet communists have done is pretend socialism/communism is imminent or already here, and to achieve the most personal utility in that world, you maximize your gains by minimizing your utility to the state

you say ohhh yeah I'll do my part to the best of my ability, it's just a shame that my autism is flaring up again, I don't have many spoons today, and then there's my self-diagnosed gluten intolerance when the state just keeps giving us bread and that makes me sluggish 

problem is despite their best efforts, the real world still rewards/requires genuine effort in most cases, hence their suffering and continued efforts to tear down anything promoting personal responsibility

they want communism so they can continue to lie about their own lack of merit and be rewarded for it

There is a curious lack of doctors, scientists, and engineers in this utopia.

Or farmers, miners, metalworkers, carpenters, mechanics, plumbers, electricians, builders, actual bakers (not, "I make cookies teehee 🤭), tailors, cobblers or any sort of trade.

I dunno man, a druggy rich dad that is barely there and has like 10 more children from different women is kind of fuck off situation. She was a privileged person, for sure, but I can’t say she was happy one. 

She doesn’t gain sympathy in that statement because she focuses so much on “this didn’t happen because I don’t remember because I was 4”

My brother who lives with our mom bought a gun after his car had been broken into several times, because when we call the police, they don't show up for hours, and very rarely do they do anything, they have flat out told him if they arrest them they'll be out in 10 minutes.

That reminds me when I was an arcade manager back in the day. I went to do the deposit one morning and noticed there was a bunch of silver quarters in my changer. It was enough of them that I had a hunch as to what happened. Sure enough. The next day a dad comes in looking real worried. He says his son came in and spent his coin collection. Lucky for him. I was a coin collector and a nice guy. I told him I noticed them right away and set them aside thinking somebody would come looking for them. I guess his kid tried to put his older paper money and other coins into the changer but the changer kept rejecting them.

You can't just do that stuff and expect zero consequences. That's just not a realistic expectation in a modern society.

Much worse is being done constantly by powerful individuals and organizations, all with close to zero consequences. Actions that will affect everyone. That was the whole point of this protest.
Chucking soup on a painting that's protected by glass is nothing. If you're keen on these protestors getting harsh punishment for this, you've lost perspective.
