If you have trouble using tweens, adding "Juice" or picking the right transition, it should hopefully help!

Can we set an all-time nationwide infrastructure overhaul record for them? But like an actually good one. Not one that France laughs at?

Surprise, we're getting pretty close to the final version of REALIS!

ICYMI: I've been making a TTRPG about mystical moons and living spaceships and sentences that can kill you. A preview is available now (see my pinned post), but the full version draws near!

It really needs to be reckoned with that, behind the "cool progressive president" aesthetics," Obama hired some of the worst people who led directly to where we are now, as much as Bush did.

I'm gonna be real bro the fact that people are struggling to make ends meet, like people can't afford groceries or rent and these deranged parasites are like "lol no more bank account for you because you drew a penis once" should be met with incredible violence.

People got pissy with me in in the late-2010s for saying I dislike it when players dump a bunch of backstory on me in the first session, so I made a whole-ass system where, in order to tell your backstory, you have to slowly kill your character over 12-15 sessions.

I’ve had several conversations recently about fully withdrawing my labor from non-university press academic publishers and I think I will complete that process in 2026.
"academic publishing is dominated by profit-oriented, multinational companies for whom scientific knowledge is a commodity to be sold back to the academic community who created it... The dominant four collectively generated... $12 billion in profits between 2019 and 2024."

We call on all people to escalate BDS campaigns to burry the colonial Trump-Netanyahu plan — as many colonial projects have been defeated before.

Bluesky Support has suspended this furry congressional candidate's account for no apparent reason. They want to limit his reach and kill his campaign, presumably for not being whatever they consider "advertiser friendly". We really need to get loud about this, and not let them get away with it

the world that was stolen from us is difficult to even imagine, for folks living now

the cheapness of rent, the ability to support yrself and yr ambitions, or to go to school, on a single low wage job

the sustainability of life that we haven't had in generations
there were periods where you could have a part time service job that covered college classes and rent! so often i'd read about artists in the 60s and 70s who also paid for studio spaces they could stock with supplies, who had the leisure time to party and create their great works. robbed, i tell ya!

We really need to be making "reactionary centrist" the epithet of choice for clowns like this. I forget who first coined it. These are people who claim to be liberal, but really aren't, except maybe for being pro-choice & anti-MAGA.
I don't no which angers me more:

1) Reactionary centrists' refusal to argue for their political preferences on the merits, instead claiming that those preferences are a strategic necessity.

2) The complete lack of evidence that these positions would be strategically effective, let alone necessary.

Do you remember that brief couple of days where it was deemed utterly unacceptable antisemitism to suggest Israel would ever attack a hospital, that then turned into a year of the media telling us Palestinian hospitals were all secret command bases actually?
I don’t see a need to reiterate what I’ve spoken about repeatedly and what we all saw in real time, but I will say: every media outlet fell over themselves to repeat clearly insane claims from the Israeli government and coordinated bullying to toe the line was instant, harsh and extremely intense.

Learning loss didn’t come from “lockdowns” or remote instruction.
It COMES FROM (still happening) illness.
Illness caused by COVID.
Illness that makes kids miss school and teachers miss teaching.
SICK DAYS. And the vascular damage that causes incapacity to think & retain.
This is still happening.
Every time Covid and learning loss hits the news, people act like the only factor is folk staying home and learning online, rather than… Living through a global mass death event.

Also!! Just because you made it, the money doesnt immediately appear in your account. You probably have to take photos if it, put it in your shop, shout it out on social media, pack it, send, reply to emails, do your admin - this is all work and you need to factor this time into your price 🥲

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

Respect Alice Wong’s call here:
“When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling & a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply don’t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.”

Yooo.
I know you folks likely hear this about a lot of comics and other works but

You should read this comic.
It starts with a woman stealing her brother's ship and identity to study sea sponge :3 And then somehow the possible end of the world gets involved.
It's also super queer???????????????
