A lot of people fixate on this admittedly badass line from DISCO ELYSIUM, but forget that the Deserter is a villain. He's a weird old incel whose delusions led to a murder and got union members killed. The bourgeois ARE human, but thrive off an inhuman system. Recognizing that humanity is crucial.

Every time she comes up, I remind you all that Pamela Paul killed a pro trans paragraph in a review I wrote for the New York Times, lied about it in the press, then when I confronted her with receipts, said “Let’s keep this to ourselves.”
In which a straight woman highlights a bunch of known anti trans activists and claims there's a divide in the queer community.
It's pure propaganda and gaslighting.

My super modern regulatory plan is that any entity named for a thing from Tolkien has to publicly explain why Tolkien wouldn’t immediately throw it into Mount Doom
Tolkein continues to resonate. The new bank being set up by Palmer Luckey and backed by Peter Thiel is named Erebor after the “lonely mountain” in The Hobbit. This was also an interesting line in this rpt on the new bank by @tabbykinder.bsky.social www.ft.com/content/202d...

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Fascism relies on you finding earnest enjoyment of things cringe, it relies on you being ironically detached, it relies on you suppressing that bit of you that is unafraid.

The homogenisation and consolidation of buisinesses and brands has led to the erosion of the midlist, the indie movie or band or comic. There's a real sense of "I'll only try media that's already popular / famous," and I'm begging you to look for the weird shit, the experimental, the niche.

Wish the news outlets and baseball teams (lol???) rushing to eulogize a D-tier right wing mouthpiece would include some of their favorite inspirational quotes from the guy. Should be easy, right? Show me that soaring rhetoric and big thinking worthy of such veneration

as bad as everyone wanted this to come out sooner, i think this is the way. it’s so easy to just destroy yourself over the thing you love, and i can say it’s never worth it. it’s better to really take your time and enjoy the process of making something you unequivocally adore.
BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.
Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

Hey this is really fucking dire! Keep calling Stripe. This aligns with nothing they've previously told us
Fuck censorship. They're coming after you next, whether you make porn or not. I have never sold NSFW services or artwork, yet here's my termination from Stripe! Fully SFW, innocent headshots of furries = adult content. This is what we've been trying to fucking tell y'all this whole month!

one forgotten reason about why newsom blows ass is that time he vetoed a *unanimous* vote in the legislature that would've capped copays for insulin at $35. stated reason was because CA was going to start making its own insulin.
that veto was in 2023. CA still ain't making its own insulin.
