Sex work is work. 🤷‍♀️

Aw shucks guys, I sure didn't mean what the words I wrote mean. It's actually your fault for reading them that way. Shut the fuck up and go away, Chrispy.

Showing at the Drafthouse as a double-bill with Babe: Pig in the City, which is a pretty iconic pairing. Tragically missed out on getting tickets. One of my favorites.

Not even close to their power in the 50s/60s/70s. Not even close to "out of control." Getting a single union in a single Starbucks is still a monumental effort. Shut the fuck up and go away. If it makes anyone feel better, I can amend my statement to include that things have improved a little from the absolute dumpster fire that they've been for decades.

Good lord, unions are the weakest they've pretty much ever been, and some are worried that they're out of control? Gtfo

New within the last fifteen or twenty years or so. I don't know where they first originated from

Drag story times are just fun for kids. Someone in an elaborate outfit, with wild makeup on, reads stories and tells age-appropriate jokes. It's also a good way to expose kids to non-hetero, non-cisgender people. Like, yeah, the person up there who looks like Joan Crawford mixed with a Bratz doll is actually a man! And that's okay! The conservative fury about them is just that they associate drag specifically with trans people and trans people are easy targets.

I believe the word you're looking for is "fascist."

Shut the fuck up and go away, Chrispy

Yeah, I like it a lot for the most part! I just have the misfortune to have bourgeois tastes on a public health hourly rate.

I drive a Mazda tyvm. I don't have the money for a dykemobile. Would I drive all of the cars mentioned if I could afford them? Sigh, yes.

That feeling when you're treating someone for syphilis, and their Grindr notifications keep going off

I just want it on record that I do not drive a Subaru

Negged on principle.

I'm still emotionally recovering from this year's Hellfire Gala. I hope a full reset of the status quo doesn't happen. I think Krakoa takes the mutant metaphor to its apex, and to trash it after less than five years would be a drag. I think it's Tom Brevoort who's taking over the X-Office, which is...a safe choice. Good chance the mansion will come back, and I'm very apathetic about it. Have you read Jean Grey #1? I'm in love with Louise Simonson.

Oh, somehow I glossed over you not having really read comics... Start at Giant-Size X-Men #1, and then read the series through it becoming Uncanny X-Men. So many all-timers by Claremont on his 16 year stint. @Elmer_Fudd mentioned a lot of them. But honestly, the entire Claremont run is worth reading up to and through the Inferno event (which is the best Marvel event imo).

You must read House of X / Powers of X, by Jonathan Hickman, especially if you liked Claremont's peak and Morrison's run with the franchise. It's a stunning reset of the X status quo, and every X book after HoX/PoX for the next two years (barring one or two) is a banger. After Hickman's mini Inferno concludes and he leaves the X-Office, the quality gets a little more erratic, but the X-line remains the best thing going about Marvel right now. Immortal X-Men and X-Men: Red, by Kieron Gillen and Al Ewing respectively, are incredible books that are currently ongoing. Leah William's X-Factor (tragically cut short by the pandemic) is great, as is Ewing's S.W.O.R.D. For awesome one shots, check out Planet-Sized X-Men #1 and Giant-Size X-Men: Jean Grey and Emma Frost. However, if you only read one series after HoX/PoX, make it Zeb Well's Hellions, imo. Though it helps if you're familiar with 80's Claremont. Hilariously, this era of the X-Men was getting started just a little bit after you made this thread, so it's possible that you already read some of those. Jed McKay's current run on Moon Knight is the second best run other than Warren Ellis (vomit). Lots of fun, especially if you know a lot of the history of the character. McKay's Black Cat is a heist comic that is a great easy and fun read, too. As as his 5 issue Taskmaster mini. Al Ewing's 50-issue run of Immortal Hulk from a couple of years ago is maybe the best 50 issue run of any comic writer/group of artists in the history of the medium. It single-handedly made me give a shit about the Hulk for the first time in my life. And if you like body horror...hoo boy does this series have it. Rainbow Rowell's current ongoing She-Hulk is a lot of a fun, and a nice change of pace from your typical hero books. Some lawyering, some romantic comedy, some fun capers. Highly recommend. I don't read much DC, but Tini Howard's Catwoman is cool.

These weren't even staged tho

The Supreme Court’s Fake Praying Coach Case Just Got Faker Love that we'll be stuck with these fucking bullshit discriminatory decisions that were built on LIES probably for the rest of my life

Moral joke of a country

Would love to see a 24hr EEG on him

And they would still complain
