Those who know me well know my views. I was ALREADY on the sign of porn. (Yeah, a lot of it sucks or is problematic. But then, 90% of EVERYTHING...)
Note this is an unironic political statement, because the resurgent war on porn has been and will continue to be at the front lines of the free speech battle, and it's only going to ramp up both with the techlash and the current fascist administration in the US.
Remember, age verification laws are censorship laws in disguise, treat them as such!

This is so 100% true that my jaw hit the floor.

Can't argue that. It's a banger. (Also, check out their cover of I Wanna Be/1000 Miles. It's great!)
I can never watch Rocky Horror because they don't use the (superior, imo) Me First and the Gimme Gimmes version of Science Fiction Double Feature
HELL yes!

I'd happily donate blood!
Turns out, you get leukemia a couple of times, they start saying "Nah, thanks, bro, we're good."
Y'know, I've also read some SF with the same basic premise, believe it or not. And urban fantasy. I'm not going to name names, but wow, "Transparent Author Insert who is in a new world where they're SUDDENLY APPRECIATED and BETTER THAN EVERYONE" is a popular genre for some authors.
"But if this other world has always operated according to video game logic, why is the isekai protagonist literally the first person to figure out all these basic mechanical exploints" well, largely because litRPG isekai is merely the latest flavour of I've Been Transported To Another World Where Everyone Is Stupid Except For Me, a venerable genre that's been a going concern at least since Mark Twain.
When I was a kid, it was American sci-fi authors writing stories about shitass engineering majors getting portal-fantasied to alien planets and single-handedly saving civilisation on the strength of being the only person in the world who knows what a flowchart is, and very little has changed – right down to the weirdly inverted character arcs where the loser protagonist discovers that they don't actually need to engage in any self-reflection at all because the very traits that rendered them odious in their native society are what make them God here.
I mean, all this is so amazingly true.
First ape to go to the watering hole with a container and put some of the water in it so that they could drink more later without returning to the watering hole must have been lauded as a fucking genius.
God, yes. We have to fight as hard as we can, no matter where we are. The stakes are too high this time.
Any red state can turn blue if enough voters turn out.
Enough is enough. Really.
Democrats we cannot let Mike Johnson support legislation based on his religious beliefs. We have to win the House of Representatives, keep the Senate and the White House.
I pray enough Democrats vote to make this happen
I'll take anything I can get at this point.
Honestly, this so badly needs to be spread out there. This is how it works. Acceptance is how you help.
This is it
