A government that uses a chicken company’s religious observance to restrict people’s right to vote is weaponizing religion against constitutional rights.

Angry Gamers (capitol G) will look at a new trailer, invent a way cooler and more epic version of it, and then think that cooler and more epic version is Bad, somehow
New female GTA protagonist is being described as "looking like a tranny and fat"
As in
This character:
She literally is not. Would be way cooler if she was though
Ciri is "too masculine" in the new Witcher trailer.
Ciri.
In this trailer:
This is literally just a cis woman. Would be based as fuck if they fucked with that a bit.
Man imagine a GTA where you play as a trans woman sex worker forced into increasingly dangerous situations, surviving and slowly thriving through crimes and heists of escalating stakes, slowly overcoming and eventually overthrowing those who wronged you in both the justice system and the criminal underworld
Maybe game studios should have one of these Gamers on their team to torture. The angrier this Gamer gets the further the rest of the team pushes. If this Gamer is violent with rage by the end of a brainstorming session it's considered successful.

i’m so upset
I just realized that the reason ghosts say Boo! is because it’s a latin verb
they’re literally saying ‘I alarm/I am alarming/I do alarm!!
I can’t
Recte!
if it comes from the latin word, they’re actually saying “I’M YELLING!” which is even cuter
do they speak latin because it’s a dead language

get out
This is exactly the kind of content I come here for like I want to print this out, frame it and put it on my wall.

i honestly am tired of constantly telling myself “just get through this week and everything will be ok” like !!! i want everything to be ok 24/7 365 100% of the time im TIRED!!!!!!!
use, and i cannot stress this enough, thriftbooks
if thriftbooks doesn’t have what you’re looking for, especially if you’re looking for it used/cheap, alternatives include betterworldbooks and discoverbooks.
Other tips for cheaper books is checking amazon and scrolling down to the “buy used” or “other sellers” section and then checking to see if those sellers have storerfonts off of amazon.
There is also a good chance that you might have a local, indie book store that likely also has a used book section! Indiebound might help you find those book stores!
Also, check out your local library, sometimes, they have a for sale section or might have certain times of the year where they do massive used book (dvd, cd, etc) sales to fundraise!
(It’s also worth checking directly from an author’s or publisher’s page and seeing if they have other places they sell their books. I know this is about cheaper/used books, since some of y’all aren’t built for piracy or the library, but also if you want to dodge supporting amazon AND want to more directly support artists you support, there’s a good chance they might have alternate ways to buy the books!)
I use thriftbooks a lot, it's so good!
as someone who works in an independent bookstore, alibris is the best for supporting yr local bookstore! abebooks is now owned by amazon. thriftbooks is great also just doesn’t usually support independent stores.
Bookshop.org is also out there and pretty great. As a former bookseller (16 years in the trade), I'm a big fan of Alibris, and I'm still a bit pissed about abebooks being swallowed by Amazon and turning to shit. If you want the absolute lowest price for used books (or to figure out how to price things for sale), I recommend bookfinder.com, which allows you to get into the nitty gritty with a lot of little search functions, though you can also just whack in an author or title and see what pops up. It does offer links for things like Amazon, Ebay, and Abebooks, but it also gives you thriftbooks and alibris links.
