It’s not enough to be not; be anti-. Anti-fascist. Anti-racist. Anti-sexist. Anti-bigot. Anti-capitalist. #CapitalismPoisonsEverything

When cruelty is the point, as it so very clearly is with these fascists, every act of kindness is an act of resistance.
Be kind, look out for each other, and stomp your boots on the faces of fascism.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children.

FREE UPDATE! Sweet! I probably would have paid a few bucks, like I’ve had to with Nintendo games like ACNH, BOTW, & TOTK, but it gives me warm fuzzies to not have to. 😊
It's Official, Red Dead Redemption Is Coming To Switch 2 This December.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

Looks like the choads who complained about Aloy not being up to their “my anime waifu” standards and made an AI mockup of her with smoother features & make up are getting their dream game.
And I bet they never play it.

While I won’t be surprised if it’s not, I really would like for this to be a free upgrade for those of us who already own RDR for the Switch.
Though if they follow Nintendo’s lead, it’ll probably be a few dollars to upgrade.

Today's #Nudivember is a swimming Melibe. I haven't seen this species swim, but I have seen our local ones and they're extremely silly swimmers. They swim exactly how you'd expect a slug would swim, flailing about in a way that could never be described as graceful.

Bottom line
The reality is that your judgment has to be rooted in your values. That's what's going to determine what you reward and what you punish. And if you're not clear on your values, then they will emerge clearly through your actual actions. In short, Link is banned, Jesse Singal is not. So now we know.

While I have no doubt this is just more “do as I say, not as I do” BS, part of me wishes to believe that the reason these people are all such miserable assholes is because they’ve never had relief from a headache or sore muscles or a fever or etc.
