Okay, here's a few Con survival tips with #MCVegas coming up that will probably help newbies out. This is far from complete, but it is meant to cover the basics.
1) Have a comfortable backpack/messenger bag that you can fit everything in, plus swag that you pick up on the Con Floor (1/10).

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Every member should co-sponsor immediate articles of impeachment.
Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."
Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

And as always, don't harass the bell ringers. They're often vulnerable people pressured into doing the SA's work or volunteers from other organizations who've been told this is a nice way to give back during the holidays. They're not the problem.
I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll:

On tariffs: 37-63
On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!)

one thing about this is that in the wake of all of this kirk is basically forgotten. he was barely cold in the ground before his allies — before his *wife* — started scheming over what they could take for themselves. a real life parable.
New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.

Note for Democratic politicians: you don't have to start your condemnations of ICE raids with "We all want to catch violent criminals, but..." Just say "These raids have nothing to do with catching criminals and everything to do with terrorizing innocent minority groups."

That's the things that the US populace hasn't yet grasped.
A medical system that lets you take care of the little things w/o fear of financial oblivion leads to a healthier population AND far lower medical costs in the long-run.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.
