A great example of how art helps to create & reinforce cultural, societal & even personal identity. And now I wonder if this is one of the main reasons why Romulans hate AI🤔

The foundational epic that chronicles exile, survival, and the claiming of Romulus. Taught to every child and treated as near-scripture. A cultural spine from which all Romulan art draws its strength. 🧵

All these games sound really cool, even the ones that don't sound like my jam
This thread will be my 5 Best, 5 Worst, & 5 Most Interesting Games I Played In 2025.
"Most Interesting" as in "I can't call these best or worst, but I really wanted to talk about them". Also, release date is irrelevant. These are the games I PLAYED this year. And here we go:

Happy New Year everyone. Remember...
Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Tennyson

Give this thread a read. He gives voice to the frustration I've had for the direction comics from the Big Two have taken & why I haven't bought any for years🖖
Obviously the actual question is whether I've forgiven the wretched comics in which this happened.
The answer to this is "no" but there's a lot of asterisks involved.
Be warned, I am not feeling charitable right now so this will be a little more frank than usual for me.
Be forewarned and read on.

Greg Bovino is back in Chicago, and ICE has been spotted in the Evanston area.
The best way to keep our loved ones safe is to alert the community whenever possible. Whistles are one of the most accessible tools to warn neighbors and disrupt ICE incursions.
Come pick up a whistle, if you need one!

Hello, I know it's a long shot, but I'm only 103 paid subs away from hitting my 2025 Patreon goal. Would you mind sharing?
Ok last Patreon push of the year. On January 1 this year, I set a goal of getting to 1000 paid Patreon supporters by the end of the year. Right now between my newsletter and Patreon, I'm at 883.
Will you help me hit my year end goal? I'm only 117 away. patreon.com/katelynburns

As a 50+ Trekkie, I'm so tired of men like THIS disregarding people's experiences with toxic Trek fandom as if it doesn't exist using faulty arguments (& rest assured it is ALWAYS men that make this argument about anything)

I want to block Sherveen for being a chud. But he keeps
replying to everyone else even after using an LLM that, along with everybody else, ALSO clocked him as a self-important evasive jerk. I'm hoping the hole he's continually digging hits China by the end of the night😆

As an ambidextrous centrist I implore everyone to reach across the aisle & come together to heal our division /s
Self-ID for left handed to be ended.
Will now require a ten year wait and the opinion of three psychologists.
Firstline treatments to include breaking all the fingers on the left hand with a mallet.
NHS to offer sinister hand amputation to persistent cases.
