I love the animation style on this. Reminds me a bit of Fog Hill and the Five Elements.

 

Fuck Disney

If we're talking only Europe, I might actually say French, just because of how familiar Germans are with English. Most Europeans speak good English, but France is kind of an outlier there. In terms of overall usefulness, however, Spanish is hands down the more useful language to learn given how widely spoken it is in the world.

 

Similar to Blobcat, these wonderful emotes made by the very talented Heather Horns represent the cute trans mascot and are used in various online trans communities I'm in. I uploaded some to tracha a few days ago and I'd love to use them here on the site as well. Here is the download link for the "Blobhaj (all)" pack, and I'd think most of those would be useful: https://heatherhorns.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Blobhaj-12-13-2022.zip

And here's a preview of those:

That zip contains svgs and also some of these are animated, keep in mind, and those come in both gif and apng formats.

I also think the "Blobhaj_Party" animated emote is worth adding: https://heatherhorns.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Blobhaj-Party.zip

There may be some others we want to add, so maybe take a look at the site: https://heatherhorns.com/emoji/

Yeah I read this awhile back and it's pretty lib (in some ways). I will say, however, it does seem to do a bit with playing with the reader's expectations in interesting ways.

Yep!! I absolutely love old photos of queer people, and especially of queer people being happy. This website has a ton of them:

Here’s a neat photo I found:

Can anyone guess where this was and who is in it? Date and photographer are unknown, but seems like it was probably 1920s.

Same, and honestly I’m thinking maybe I’ll just set up the playlist around 8 and then people can come and go? I’ll have to think of some quality films to line up. Any suggestions are appreciated

Lucy Parsons was unfathomably based and we really should talk about her more here.

What about Christmas Day? 10pm Eastern will be like 3 am for me lol, so earlier is better if possible.

 

I’m going to be by myself (except for pup) for Christmas, and I figured there might be others out there in the same boat. I don’t have anything definite in mind besides really wanting to watch Tokyo Godfathers again and maybe something else? What times would work for you all? Just thought I’d get a discussion started so please sound off in the comments.

The universe

 

Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t Scrooge McDuck originally portrayed as the epitome of greed and heartlessness in the Disney version of A Christmas Carol? And now he’s some good guy? Get the fuck outta here. Also he has a coin vault he swims in daily. Now what the fuck is that all about?

 
 
 

In every online community I’ve ever seen, winter depression has been a noticeable thing, and this site is no exception. The combination of weather and being indoors, having to deal with shitty family over the holidays, being lonely over the holidays, etc. is bad enough, but I feel like this year is worse than usual due to the election and other events.

I don’t know if recent bad vibes might be in part due to this, but regardless, please treat both yourself and others with kindness, at least as much you’re able to. Also, don’t hesitate to open up to people you trust if there’s anything on your mind you want to discuss.

Does anyone else have any good tips for dealing with it? Please let us know in the comments, and thank you for reading this.
