The point is to create a world in which the authoritarians can simultaneously inhabit a position of victim and abuser, creating an imagined threat of persecution and violence in order to persecute and carry out violence.

This is how this always works. We cannot allow this to continue.

The businesses on PublicSquare felt that I should take their politics into account in deciding whether to patronize them. Guess what? I agree.

“The final honor guard included Venezuelan, Kurdish, Egyptian and other migrants, as well as Muslims, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach.”

Wait until Trump hears about this.
Among the meek and the mighty, Catholics bury their ‘people’s pope’
The pope’s unadorned tomb, marked by a single Latin word — Franciscus — was intended, a cleric said, to reflect a life of “simplicity and essential things.”

Had a great time running Call of Cthulhu "The Crawford Inheritance" last night at my local game store. I updated the 2nd edition rules for 7th but scenerios were written *very* differently back in the day. There's lots of loose ends, but every time I run it I fix it and smooth out the wrinkles.

Banning porn (with the definition of porn left vague and open on purpose) is always about carving out exemptions to the first amendment. One you've got exceptions, it's easy to make more and more and more.

I'd also add that hating on "cringe" is part of this as well because most "cringe" people are just happily living outside the norm. Many are autistic, queer, disabled, etc., and all of those things spit in the face of fascist homogeneity and beauty standards.

This was a harrowing experience, but one I absolutely needed. Games are art. Games show the world as it is, as it could be, back to us.

I made this article public because it felt incredibly important to me that people read it.

In gamedev, we joke about how we shouldn't care so much because "we ain't curing cancer" so chill, right?

But you know what? These last few weeks reminded me that the Arts, esp accessible Art like videogames is incredibly important because games have a big place in sculpting cultural norms.

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.

I'm trying to save them.

You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.
