Every candidate running for DNC Chair must commit to getting dark money and corporate money out of the Party. Period.

Tik Tok loosened moderation and standards to favor conservatives. We all know what Twitter and Facebook have been doing in that respect for ages now. And yet people want to scream about "legacy media" being the problem. No, the problem is corporate ownership of media sources, be they old or new.

My daughter's school had a Thanksgiving lunch today for parents to attend and eat with the kids. I wore my cloak, since we'd have to wait to get in and it's cold and windy, and also because I like my new cloak. I was called a vampire by a kid, and Hagrid by a teacher. May be time to trim the beard.

This election result isn't about Dem messaging.
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz formed a balanced ticket filled with character, intellect, and genuine love for this country, and they delivered their vision beautifully and eloquently.

No, the Democratic Party Can't "Message Better" to Racism, Misogyny, and Ignorance

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

Krod is my current character in the Friday campaign run by my long time DM. He's an orc fighter, strong of arm and dim of wits. (That's just how the dice came out; they tell stories.) His subclass is samurai, and one of the features is Elegant Courtier. Obviously, he is the furthest from elegant.

And it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victim
I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas
And I'll dream each night of some version of you
That I might not have, but I did not lose
Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do
I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas
And I'll dream each night of some version of you
That I might not have, but I did not lose
Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do

Pro tip: If the people who make their money by preying on the working class are happy, then you should be worried.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.
You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

Random Warhammer 40K thought (if you don't follow the fandom, feel free to ignore)...
"The Emperor Protects" is a psyop.
It is a phrase that makes it seem like surviving proves that you are faithful and good and worthy, and that dying proves that the fallen were not faithful or worthy of saving.

Soooo... I was never much for the now-fascist platform. I only made an account there when I was part of Masters of the Box, in the idealistic expectation that we'd go somewhere and I'd need to interact with people following it. Not really a loss that I left it, the way it went. But I'm here now. Woo
