my brother came to me one day, saying how everyone noticed I'd been way happier lately. he was convinced it had been some psilocybin I had taken a few months back, but I knew it was realizing I was trans. so I came out to him, which led to me coming out to my family eventually.

best adaptation of Tolkien's works
I still kinda wish they'd included Tom Bombadil, buuut I understand why they didn't (runtime and not necessary for the plot)

the Marty Robbins song El Paso has beautiful instrumentation and a lovely melody but the lyrics are *extremely* sexist, like, it's all about a dude being possessive of a girl he hasn't ever even talked to, killing a dude over the other dude flirting with her, and then returning and dying

the thing about blind hero worship as an attachment to your favorite thing is that is pulls out of people, time and time again, their need to "rationalize" away empathy for the victims to make the thing their fav did okay or non-existent.
kill your fucking darlings.

Hi, apologies, but trying to insert when I see people fretting about the terf podcast being a source. This is from a friend who’s indicated she’s ok with my sharing, isn’t associated with the terf podcast. And uh. This seems pretty cut and dry.

at least in Canada we have the legal right to back up anything we own onto physical media as long as we don't distribute it, and since we don't have the stupid DMCA we can bypass copy protection to do it.

General PSA:
If abusers didn't understand how to be genuinely friendly and how to cultivate allies, THEY WOULDN'T BE DANGEROUS. There is NO SHAME in being misled by an abuser, or being friends with someone you don't know is abusive. The only shame is in enabling them once you know better!

I want to remind everyone: It's PERFECTLY OKAY to still love art made by people who turn out to be terrible. It's good not to SUPPORT those people, once you know they've done horrible things, but the WORK ITSELF lives in your heart and you own it as much as anyone else does.

(It's also, of course, totally okay to feel like your relationship to a work has been changed or even ruined by a revelation that someone is terrible! But in my experience, LOTS of people will tell you that. I want to tell you that it's okay if your relationship to the work is NOT ruined.)

There are many books by terrible people that have been deeply, deeply formative for me. It's reasonable to say, "Yes, the author is a shithead, but i refuse to cede the love and meaning this art has created in my life to a shithead."

This is continuous with my thread from the other day about finding out you were close to an abuser. When someone -- either a friend or an artist -- betrays your trust, that is ON THEM, NOT ON YOU. Your love, your life, your creation of meaning, those are yours and cannot be alienated from you.
