A bumptious brew of mockery, sarcasm, even juvenile humor, weaponized for propaganda purposes

Пиздец.

I really hate the Western fandom spaces sometimes. So what if fem!Malfoy has been around for twenty years? The idea has only exploded enough now to make it to the normies. So what if you have twenty years more experience,and the normies are oneshot by the foundational tropes like

a tsundere ojou-sama? If you're experienced, you're supposed to share the cool stuff you know with the newbies, that's the whole fucking point. Instead they're turning it into an imbecilic gender war. What the (and I can't underscore it enough) fuck.

Feminization of Malfoy going so viral it made into twitter's AI ticker *twice* just serves to show how compartmentalized fan communities really are. Like, to me, any popular story getting a ton of fanfiction with its characters genderbent is the most obvious thing in the world.

With HP, it happened about... twenty... years ago?

I've grown quite inured to the kind of brazen-faced propaganda the Western news have become, but sometimes they still manage to surprise me. Take this @BBCWorld article about the Ukrainian army starving out civilians in a city under Russian control. bbc.com/news/articles/c60qxy…

Whenever familiar experiences of Windows XP like its default wallpaper or startup sound are mentioned, people nostalgic for them show up. One has to wonder - will it be the same for Windows 11? It doesn't seem iconic in this way.

Is it just an old man thing for me? Or was the XP era actually more techno-optimist? Or is it because most modern computation device users just use smartphones, Mac laptops and pad computers, not Windows machines? So Gen Z will be nostalgic for these experiences instead?

Fascism was the petite bourgeoisie's reaction to its impoverishment in the beginning of the XX century. Leftism in the West is the middle class' reaction to its impoverishment in the beginning of the XXI century.

I get a feeling all the folks joking about "never ask a race supremacist about the race of his girlfriend" fail to understand the very fundamentals of the human nature. For starters, consider what these very same supremacists would say if the genders were reversed.

Since it takes a lot of skills to be the President, from international etiquette to macroeconomics and from constitutional law to army command, I think an election should be preceded by the candidates taking a very televised half-year intensive course in these skills.

You know how adults rarely jump? You bet if we had wings, we'd fly even rarer than that. With how much strength and energy that'd require, and how large the wings'd need to be, someone opening their wings and taking off would be a rarer sight than randomly starting to parkour.

Как же тонко #Зайчик с первых сцен понимает гопников. Втроем одного пиздить - "по-пацански", вдвоем топтать упавшего товарища,когда он разонравился - "по-пацански", а вот этому разонравившемуся с ботана очки сорвать в драке - "не по-пацански",можно теперь с ним как угодно делать.

France had an anti-piracy system called HADOPI to stop people from illegally downloading movies and music, but on April 30, 2026, France’s highest court ruled that the main part of this system is illegal. It broke European rules on privacy and human rights. The system sent warnings to internet users suspected of sharing files, and the court said it did not protect people’s private information well enough. The new agency, called Arcom, can still block big pirate websites, but the warnings and fines for ordinary people are mostly finished. This is a big win for groups that defend digital rights after 17 years of work.

Germany's Chancellor has opened around 300 criminal investigations against people who insulted him. His office spent months in court trying to hide which prosecutors were handling them. They lost. A guy in Stuttgart called Merz a "drunkard." Police searched his house. A court just ordered Germany's Chancellor to reveal every prosecutor handling his insult cases. reclaimthenet.org/merz-insul…

Меня так радует вот это кокетство - "ой, я пирачу потому, что мне сложно и дорого купить". Почему не сказать честно - пирачу, потому что могу? Могу не платить, прежде чем попробую - вот и не плачу. В моем случае, если понравилось - стараюсь заплатить.

Вот, Disco Elysium или Космических Рейнжеров я по три раза покупал. Но на примере того же Disco Elysium видно, с какой легкостью эти деньги уходят не создателям контента, а левым гнидогадоидам. Поэтому будущее в мире,где информация свободно копируется- за моделями типа Патреона.
