Sora and Riku are sitting on a four poster bed, surrounded by dark blue velveteen curtains, facing each other with pillows clutched in their laps. They are wearing pale green pajamas under soft lighting, knees just about touching atop the bedspread. Sora is leaning forward, waiting with baited breath to hear more of what Riku has to say about his time in Castle Oblivion. Riku is slightly blushing, reluctant, aware of just how much that castle changed him and what he nearly lost because of the Organization. Scene from chapter 4 of the SoRiku fic on AO3, Come Home Like a Song.

*drumroll*

I bring you...

Pete Hegseth Blasted For Incendiary Threat To Iranians During '60 Minutes' Interview

A truly unhinged thing to say.

What do you want to bet this little tantrum on the WaPo's opinion page is because someone ahead of Professor Jakub Grygiel in the queue at some coffee shop had an elaborate coffee order and he hasn't been able to let it go ever since

Strongly suspect that as this war and its negative effects escalate, we're gonna see a massive increase in disinfo and unsourced "news" - starting right the hell now.

In an ideal world, the guy who controls the nukes and the village idiot would be two separate people.

This is not true—driver’s licenses aren’t acceptable under the SAVE Act without additional proof of citizenship. The fact that they keep doing this sleight of hand should make clear that the SAVE Act is not something that “every American gets”

Everyone Sees It But Us The Epstein files and the great American silence

Three million pages of Epstein files were released. Around the world: arrests, investigations, resignations. In the U.S.? Officials say there’s “nothing there” and the person who appears in the files the most goes unscrutinized. @gloriouslygloria.bsky.social examines the silence.

Some silly side thing 🥔

A headline reading “Camel pageant thrown into chaos after 20 competitors disqualified for using hump-plumping injectables”

Yes everything is terrible but let’s not lose sight of the fact that someone has written the Headline to End All Headlines.

This is honestly the treatment Trump voters should get in the U.S. too. Don't let them try to hide from the effects of their choice. It's always the people who believe in the worst things that get mad when someone "makes things political."

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE:

-the KIDS Act
-KOSA
-the Screen Act
-Sammy's Law
-the App Store Accountability Act

And additionally, oppose:

-reforming/sunsetting Section 230
-online age verification/ID laws
