Political violence ≠ fascism. Violence is what people turn to when they can't achieve what they need by merely talking and voting. Cf. every revolution, ever. Including the American one.

You are right, this video is clickbait mitigation, not clickbait itself. The haters are just primed to hate at the drop of a hat.

This is why I'm playing the game in early access. Each update could be the one that lets you pet the dog! Very exciting.

It is correct that non-binary can fall under the trans umbrella. It is not correct that femboys are "in denial" about their gender. Nobody gets to decide that but them. This post is hopefully satire, but taken literally, it's advocating for reverse conversion therapy.

If you were only going to read one or two, then sure, go for The Left Hand of Darkness (for sci-fi) or A Wizard of Earthsea (for fantasy), though there are some loose sequels to each of those you might end up wanting to pursue. But personally I've always been most fond of Always Coming Home.

No Such Thing As A Fish!

From the makers of BBC's "QI," a (nearly) endless collection of useless facts that will not change your life, but will make you more fun to talk to at parties. Not that you go to any parties.

It's not about effort - it's a matter of aesthetics.
