    Get a fucking clue. I wouldn’t need the melatonin if I didn’t already have a job that I needed go to sleep at a certain time and wake up at a certain time.

    You must really think you’re fucking something else if you have the audacity tell other people how to fucking live. Why don’t you jump off your goddamn high horse and learn how the real world fucking works.

    Sincerely, go fuck yourself.





  • I’m happy this works for you but it would fuck my brain up royally. When the alarm goes off my brain tries to wake up and after a bit I will go back to sleep. A second alarm 10 minutes later will then fully wake me up but i have 3 back ups with completely different ring tones so my brain doesn’t get used to them and just block them out. I also choose pleasant yet attention grabbing tunes to avoid the blocking out problem. You’d be surprised at how effectively your brain can block a sound it doesn’t like. It’s why I’ve long avoided getting the alarms with the typical alarm sound.





  • Now recontextualize this using modern sci-fi that looks toward multiple centuries from now. Star Trek’s egalitarian socialist utopia would never come to pass and the most likely future is that of Frank Herbert’s Dune, where nearly 8,000 years from now we have a galactic feudal society where the ultra wealthy fight for control over limited resources while using religion to manipulate the poor into being their cannon fodder.



  • I have read the entire Harry Potter series (before she outed herself as being scum). And calling her writing bad is disingenuous. She isn’t a bad writer, or more accurately she wasn’t. (It’s notable that her writing started to degrade very sharply not long after she outed herself as a TERF).

    She is a fucking horrid human being as are Orson Scott Card and Scott Adams along with a few others who’s true colors shined through due to the pervasive nature of social media. But to blandly call their works “shitty” just as a lazy dig at them degrades you, not them. It makes your opinion worthless.

    J.K. Rowling is an absolute dipshit asswipe who should be tarred, feathered, and run out on a rail anywhere she goes. And more people should say so as loudly as possible. But the Harry Potter books were beloved by millions for a reason. If only she had gone blind, deaf, and dumb after she finished writing them. 😒

    I haven’t watched John Oliver’s video on the subject yet but if I recall correctly, trans athletes don’t even tend to place first in their own divisions. So the whole idea of them being “roided up naturally” is just plain silly. It’s all just a right wing fantasy built to divide the left and supercharge conservatives on election days.
