The first episode of Critical Role Campaign 4 references Malört, and I hope it becomes canon in that universe.

OpenAI claims companies must opt-out of having their copyrighted characters & content appear in Sora
Legal experts say studios have grounds to sue:
“They’re setting up this false bargain where they can do this unless you opt out. And if you don’t, it’s your fault. That’s not the way the law works"

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

Do you know what I like about the the idea of luck? It reminds us that we’re all just victims of chaos, so we just try to be kinder to everybody. We’re all going through a lot.

I’m sorry I’ve slept on Senua’s Saga until now. This game’s themes are delivered with both the narrative and gameplay in such a masterful way. I think this is the way Naughty Dog wishes they could tell a story. I feel that they struggle to interwine those two elements in such an immersive way.

If you are a regular at conventions, I’m sure you’ve run into a booth named Salami Productions. This booth is run by a man named Marco. Marco regularly booths at Artist Alley, and has woven art displayed all over their booth alongside spicy stickers.

Got to see my old man play with his band on his birthday. It was pretty rad.

Expedition 33 is the perfect blend between classic JEPGs and modern Souls-Like RPGs for me. It manages to mix the thoughtful turned based mechanics with the frenetic timing-based button inputs masterfully. It scratches both the strategic and reactive halves of my brain in a very satisfying way.

Los Angeles: if you get tear gas or see other people who have been and someone calling themselves a medic tries to use milk to wash their eyes out SLAP THAT MILK JUG OUT THEIR FUCKING HAND. MILK DOES NOT WASH OUT TEAR GAS.
Just use bottled water please.
Just use bottled water please.
Timely reminder that the treatment for chemical weapons like tear gas and pepper spray is:
1) remove from active contamination (get them out of the cloud of teargas, remove outer layers of clothing if possible)
2) flush eyes with ONLY clean water. Wash skin and hair with water and soap.

ICE agents better start reading up on the Nuremberg trials. Because when we get to the other side of this, and we will, "I was just following orders" ain't gonna cut it.
