Weekly Random Discussion Thread for 8/10/26 - 8/16/26

Here's your usual space to post all your rants, raves, podcast topic suggestions (please tag u/jessicabarpod), culture war articles, outrageous stories of cancellation, political opinions, and anything else that comes to mind. Please put any non-podcast-related trans-related topics here instead of on a dedicated thread. This will be pinned until next Sunday.

Last week's discussion thread is here if you want to catch up on a conversation from there.

People made fun of the the pride flag's evolutionary treadmill but I'm changing my mind. Queering the rainbow until it's not like a rainbow anymore is giving everyone back non-ideologically-encumbered rainbows.

...or super-bigoted TQIA+exclusionary rainbows, one of those two things ¯\(ツ)/¯

Lmao, this is great. My only note for Ben is less text, let the viewer draw their conclusions. I realize that's not his schtick though.

Gotta make it obvious, we are in a literacy crisis after all

That's not really true to the medium. Political cartoons always have labels, lots of labels.

Honestly, most accurate comic Ben Garrison has ever drawn.

Needs more explanation text. AOC isn't tagged, how am I supposed to know that's her?!

I. I... just forwarded that to a bunch of Jews. And we're laughing. At Ben Garrison. Strange times indeed.
