Friday-is-unfunny - N. D. Plume (any Pronouns)

had a dream that there was this new tiktok trend called "scrubbing" where people would take images of fictional characters and put them in images of bathtubs and drag around transparent pngs of soap and brushes with their tiktok art tablets and like liquify tool their hair down to mimic giving them a shower. and people would get into flamewars in the comments of every single video over the types of soap they picked and if the images had decently removed backgrounds and if they got soap in their eyes. and it got onto the news because it turned out everyone doing the trend was doing it compulsively like they physically couldn't stop and each video was a solid few minutes long because they were just collectively obsessively recording themselves fake-showering these fictional characters and arguing about it online

"oh you have an allergy? sorry I harassed you for being a picky eater, I didn't realize you had a valid reason. it's good to know you're not actually a picky eater, I still get to harass those people"

"oh you have chronic pain? sorry I harassed you for being lazy, I didn't realize you had a valid reason. it's good to know you're not actually a lazy person, I still get to harass those people"

"oh you're autistic? sorry I harassed you for being weird, I didn't realize you had a valid reason. it's good to know you're not actually a weird person, I still get to harass those people"

"oh you're deaf? sorry I harassed you for ignoring me, I didn't realize you had a valid reason. you're just not actually a rude person, I still get to harass those people"

"man why does everything have to be a disorder now? I miss the old days when people would TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for being failures and it was socially exceptable for me to harass them, now I look like a jerk when I bully people for annoying me."

Gandalf's big naturals this, Gandalf's big naturals that, what about Rincewind's big naturals, huh?

So, this happened.

Several things:

This is in Peru so this shows that the pattern of religious figures abusing children is an international issue, not just an American problem

This guy shares the same views as most pro-lifers regarding things like "gender ideology" (since apparently supporting gay people means pedophilia but his actual behavior was ok, I guess?)

The Peruvian justice system didn't hold this man accountable when he was accused of doing the same thing to his own sister in the 90s

Reasons why Trillian is a trans woman

An astrophysics degree would've been incredibly hard for a woman to get in the 70s, so she must have got it before she transitioned

As a fellow queer, I know the feeling of wanting to escape to another planet. Hence why she dropped everything to head off with Zaphod

Trillian just sounds like something a tgirl would name herself. She clearly went with Tricia first (again, trans ass name) and then went "What the hell. I'm in space. I'll use the name I want."

Vibes.
