  • Gideon The Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

    It's horror science fantasy with lesbian necromancers in space, and all together just a lot of fun and surprisingly easy to read.

    (And if you enjoy it, there's two more books continuing the plot)

    My second recommendation is Time To Orbit Unknown by Derin Edala the link is to the first chapter of the actual story, as it's online and completely free.

    This one is scifi with future humans in space and lots of mysterious weird shit that keeps happening.
    Honestly, click the link and just read the first chapter, it's addictive and super easy to fall into.
    New chapters are out every wednesday and sunday, and chapter 136 comes out tomorrow. I genuinely envy you for having so much of this story ahead of you to binge!

  • The Locked Tomb memes?

  • Accepting this is what my species is like and that this is the world we've made for ourselves, is the hard bit.
    The good bit is that it will be over soon.

    The rest is depression.

  • The iof murdered hundreds of israelis on October 7th by dropping bombs and firing tanks on them. There is literally footage of this you can watch and see for yourself.

    The accusation of mass rapes is another piece of shitty propaganda trotted out by israel to further try to discredit Palestinians and Hamas.

    Why the fuck would people fighting for the freedom of their illegally imprisoned families, children and friends, detour to have a mass rape (and find 40 babies to behead at an outdoor rave), midway through their plan for aquiring folk for the hostage swap and taking them back to Gaza?

    Do you also believe the terrorists called Monday and Tuesday hid their guns in working mri machines? Fucking zionist.

  • Prolonged extreme stress can wreck your body even if you're perfectly healthy before experiencing it, and it wrecks you faster and worse if you have any chronic illnesses.

    I'm just guessing here but I don't think he was unstressed and perfectly healthy before going into prison.

  • His immune system was failing without the hiv meds, so all infections and diseases picked up while incarcerated was massively more harmful to his body than it would have been otherwise (or to anyone healthy).

    Think about how dirty and unhygenic and likely over crowded these detention centres are and how little healthcare is accessible to anyone incarcerated.

    There are yeasts and various skin fungi everywhere, lots of prisoners with 'minor' respiratory infections which are probably COVID, the food is the lowest quality with very poor production standards and often mould, there's very likely mould on the walls and bedding in the cells and fecal matter from toilet spray too.

  • Wow that's fucked up. I stopped keeping up with tv and pop culture stuff over a decade ago now and had no idea about most of this.

    In hindsight, I really can't say I'm surprised Feilding and Brand were hanging out, or that both are misogynistic rapists. I knew far too many guys just like them back in the 2010's and it was very normslised behaviour.

    A lot of men behave that way and get away with it their whole lives as they aren't famous, so I'm glad that at least it's public information and they're being called out in this case, even if it's not amounting to much beyond that.

    Thanks for explaining!

  • He is INCREDIBLY abuser adjacent

    Can someone explain what this is about please? And Noel Feilding to, going by another comment?

    (I don't watch this show and am confused)

  • That is a beautiful photo!

  • Considering the 119 Palestinian journalists murdered by israel since October 7th, I'm surprised there's so many still alive being illegally detained in israerli prisons.

  • Or just do it anyway ala Orphan Black.

  • Thanks!

  • What is Tigress from? I though they were the 'tiger who came for tea' before reading that.

    Also I bet Tony has wanted to eviscerate more than one sticky space invading screaming child in his time.

  • Every single time I see, hear or think any variation of that phrase, I can't help but mentally follow it up with "Caaaarl".

  • If you're also drinking water and only eating a few pickles a day for the salt and mineral content, you can water fast safely for a good while if you have enough body fat.

    Folk with morbid obesity have safely water fasted up to a year.

    The pickles would only be sustaining you so far as salt and minerals though, your body fat would be doing the rest to keep you alive.

  • Nah all that happens then is I sleep for 20 hours a day and eventually start reading books again. I tried this when I couldn't pay my phone bill.
