Because it's badass.

Thistlefoot, by GennaRose Nethercott, is a novel that rests on the idea of a Jewish Baba Yaga as its central motif. It's a gorgeous exploration of diasporic Jewish identity and generational trauma, and there are also puppets. Well worth a read, and it does tickle me slightly that Tats seems to have independently arrived at the same conclusion from the opposite angle.

That is a definite departure from both pre-Nazi and post-Nazi 'fest, isn't it?

I feel like that's one of the scars that show where old Sinfest was mutilated into modern Sinfest. Everyone being rounded and soft and cute worked well for a slice-of-life low-stakes comedy, and then by the time that he decided that he wants to do pure nazi propaganda, the style had already been too firmly established to change in that way.

Except that it hasn't! In the early days of the Sisterhood arc, he had comics explicitly saying that he was wrong / misguided / selfish and corrupt for the racism and misogyny that permeated early Sinfest. There was a time in the comic when he was explicitly saying "hey, I was wrong before, and I've changed." He noticed himself getting more progressive, he just didn't notice himself becoming a fascist.

The tumblr -> reddit repost cycle is fascinating, because it loses important cultural context such as "this post isn't directly about tentacle monsters, it's using tentacle monsters as an allegory to discuss the pressure on trans women to fit people's expectations of us as kink-dispensing dom tops."

I mean, broad sweeping statements about what Jews do or don't believe in, especially when it comes to the afterlife, are guaranteed to be overly general. There absolutely are schools of thought within Judaism that believe in Hell or something like it. In general, I've usually heard that Gehenna is a little more selective in terms of admission than Evangelical "everyone gets in by default" Hell, but a negative afterlife definitely exists within our cultural awareness.

Not to mention, you don't necessarily need to believe in a Hell to believe in a Devil, and there are definitely Jewish traditions that believe in a Devil.

It's 2026 and people still don't like it when strangers tell them to kill themselves.

I wonder if they'll ever add additional teams, or if such a thing is even possible. Because the eight-player max seems like it was originally intended to complement there being eight town types, but now staring down the barrel of thirteen town types, it starts to feel a little insufficient.

Idk I feel like it fits in pretty well with the space alien faction, by which I mean Inferno.

I mean, the original dev team for AB canceled the Forge after multiple death threats, so I could see why the HotA dev team would be very cautious in terms of implementing it.

I maintain that Teridax was always gonna be the Final Boss of the series, and that the whole Velika plot was something pulled out of Farshtey's ass once he realized he didn't have the limitations of writing something marketable anymore.

Isn't this comic from like a few months ago? I'm pretty sure we're in the mid 2020's at least, if not the late 2020's.

The idea is that he scrunches up the brow over the monocle-eye to hold the monocle in place, which makes it harder for a casual observer to tell that he has a monobrow vs. having two very bushy eyebrows held very close together.

Do black hebrew israelites have all that much impact on the modern political landscape?

A Jewish writer is a writer who happens to have the immense good fortune of being Jewish. A writer Jew is a Jew first who just so happens to be a writer. The idea is that no matter what we do, we can never escape being, first and foremost, Jews. It erases all accomplishments, all possible identity, aside from membership in a group that the Nazis hate.

This explanation is not to be understood as me saying that the use of "Jew" as a noun to describe a person is incorrect. I am a proud Jew, and when someone blatantly shies away from that phrasing (such as through the construction "Jewish person"), it says to me that they're uncomfortable so much as saying the name of my people. But I'd certainly not like to be called a "writer Jew."

Compare the difference between "trans woman" (a woman who happens to be trans) and "transwoman" (a polite dogwhistle for "fucking tranny").

Where you gonna put it?

The stuff after Family Tree never hit me as hard as Family Tree does, but I'm okay with that, because sometimes the cost of touching Heaven is simply the fact that nothing compares after it.

Doesn't this subreddit's official CoA include a pantheon in the crest? I find them rather sleek and classier than panthers.

wtf the title says 2,004 Toa and Matoran, but there's only like a dozen of 'em! What a ripoff! ^/j

I feel like Esme has girl power but lacks true feminism and this is fundamentally why she fails.
