twitter media discourse is like opening up a clogged up sewer full of rats and maggots fighting over scraps of shit to eat

This would've been the most "no shit, sherlock" statement back in 2015. Where did it all go wrong?
The goal of sex education shouldn't be to encourage teenagers to have sex. It should be to ensure that, if and when they become sexually active, they understand consent, contraception, STI prevention, pregnancy risks, boundaries, emotional readiness, and recognizing coercion.

How do I explain to people that the ao3 discourse becoming mainstream may lead to us being recognized as an untapped market resource and the only holy bastion that's keeping this commensalism is AO3 accepting only donations and not placing monetary value on it

Hayao Miyazaki on modern anime, via Roland Kelts the author of 'Japanamerica'
"Hayao Miyazaki said to me at one point: 'The problem with young anime artists today is that the only thing they study is anime. When we were young, we studied French literature, we studied impressionism, we read Dostoevsky. We swallowed everything. And then we went and created original anime. But if you grow up and all you watch is anime, you're just regurgitating spinning wheels.'"
He also spoke about his work on the upcoming documentary 'Tezuka! God of Manga'
interesting hole to square because I can't really think of a reason for this phenomenon other than boys just not being interested in girl-coded stories which kinda implies a lot about gender and its downstream effects
Young boys are being discouraged from getting into reading—and it’s because more books are missing one key element, @sophiah_n reports: theatlantic.com/culture/2026…

Gen Z's greatest virtue is their understanding of power. Not as in "who's in charge", but on the nature of power, how it is structured and distributed, and its downstream effects on other facets of society

I recently learned that bisexuals were once banned from the London Lesbian and Gay Centre because some lesbians felt that bisexual men would harass them. This flagrant act of bigotry, of course, has absolutely no parallels to anything going on within the queer community today.

This isn’t an unusual response to someone seeing sexual violence loom over a text but nonetheless it is a frustrating one. Why is it that SA is often seen as too far, but murder and cannibalism are not? Are we desensitized to violence of that nature and not to this? How? Why?
Thought about this some more and it's come to my realization that I feel this way because almost everyone who engages in this behavior start with a hatred of problematic media made by Japan and then start looking for problems and statistics to justify that hatred
the American people's self interest and political solipsism isn't really anything exceptional among nations but what is is the impact said solipsism has over the rest of the world. the guilt of too much power is always an interesting one to see

After the blue wave, this is a good reality check for us that Democrats are still not our allies, friends, or communities. They are simply the lesser evil.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said that his party is “ready, willing and able to find bipartisan common ground” in order to work with Republicans on the ongoing affordability crisis. abcnews.visitlink.me/ymEF7Q
