The university currently violently suppressing students protesting genocide with cops is awarding the rag responsible for running cover ups and justification for the genocide those students are protesting with the "highest award in journalism".

the irony of this year's met gala theme being based on a short story about cloistered, decadently-dressed aristocracy desperately pillaging the natural resources at their disposal to hold the advancing tide of the restless underclass at bay is honestly baffling

quite literally

erm ik this article is written sort of vaguely and confusingly (that is on purpose) but if you do read it you'll see what they actually reached was a memorandum of understanding which holds about as much legal weight as a handshake. evergreen has promised to establish multiple DISAPPEARING task forces that will make SUGGESTIONS to evergreen about their investments in israel and campus police presence to be put into place by 2025. this is the third time since 2010 that evergreen has promised divestment and rolled the changes back within a few years. evergreen student organizers have sold out their encampment by agreeing to watered down demands and fallen prey to an evil institution protecting its public image after killing a student due to grossly negligent housing conditions in december of 2023.

it's not too late to corner the tycoon/dating sim market

made this post high just trying to think of the weirdest genre of game that you could still plausibly incorporate dating sim elements into. i do think im onto something here though. 'would there be any audience' irrelevant. in depth relationship management system w your suppliers/buyers/investors where if you don't go on dates with them often enough or you don't impress them they won't work with you. you can date your obligatory business rival. game about running a coffeeshop where you're trying to decorate and create drinks so specific characters will drop by more and gain affection so you can date them but if you don't balance the cost of ingredients with rent and marketing and make $10,000 by the end of the week you WILL still lose because the debt collector killed you and your girlfriend will NOT do anything to help you.

TRANS EVERY LIVING HUMAN

dating simulator where it starts normal but it slowly becomes clear that all of the romanceable characters are attempting to cover up an extremely specific murder they committed a year ago before you arrived

like this

stop drawing for others. don't draw for yourself either. play video games

i know a lot of people cling hard to their DSM diagnoses and the biomedical model of mental illness bc they’ve had their suffering invalidated for years. they’ve been blamed for having the wrong attitude, or pretending, or being lazy, or being attention-seeking or selfish or any other descriptor that SO ironically applies to the people propagandizing around these labels and not the people receiving them, who are suffering and asking to be seen. 

but the alternative to the biomedical model is not “your suffering is invalid or made up”! it is: your suffering could not be more real–all of society is arranged in a way that traumatizes and alienates you, from birth to home to school to work to healthcare to dying. of course you’re unwell! and unwell in a way that is both unique to you, your body, and your experience, and shared with many others. the alternative to victim-blaming is context, looking at the whole person, the whole society.

antipsychiatry doesn’t want to take away the validation of your particular suffering, it wants to take the blame off of you and your body entirely, and to tell you that none of us is alone, privatization of mental health is a sham, and there is a path forward for you into more freedom & healing than psychiatry has allowed you to imagine.
