it’s becoming increasingly clear the goal of the far right is to defund and buy up every source of reliable information until there is no more objective reality to counter them

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they *literally whispered,* they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.
VERY urgent update regarding trans/nonbinary people safety & security:

One thing I'd love to see more indie devs try is producing a two-page magazine style spread like @anwnm.bsky.social did for the upcoming Utter Inverse.

Untethered from the needs of traditional marketing, you can just create something that channels what you feel is the purest vibe of your game.

RESIST.
Don't quit.
Don't stop fighting.
Don't obey in advance.
Don't stop calling them out.
Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can.
Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone.
Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight.

RESIST.

I've seen people dismiss the Pornhub bans, sometimes couching their dismissal in an anti-porn stance. What I don't think they realize is that the people pushing this stuff conflate porn with LGBTQ people and sex education and are part of Project 2025

I want to point out that TikTok gleefully assisted Trump in doing this because TikTok has no interest in helping our political system contain it in any meaningful way.

Trump hasn't actually done anything yet. TikTok just swung shit to Trump because he's corrupt and will play ball.

That's fascism.

Trump does not have political positions. He does not have convictions. He does not believe in anything.

He does whatever is best for himself in the moment, period. He doesn't care if it's inconsistent. He doesn't care if people call him on it. It doesn't matter.

Do you get it yet?

Here's what happened just this weekend:

Biden's administration, after falling into the trap of signing that stupid TikTok ban, tried to punt it back to Trump with the idea that Trump actually had a position on the matter and would be trapped and unable to act.

Because they're idiots.

I am so frustrated with people.

Democrats - including Democratic voters - DO NOT UNDERSTAND FASCISM.

They have been whining on here non-stop about how Trump's really responsible for the ban and why are Democrats being blamed and it's not faaaiiiirr

FASCISTS. DON'T. RESPECT. RULES. DIPSHIT.

in light of isr*el finally "agreeing" to a ceasefire agreement (we'll whether they'll actually abide by the terms) i'd like to share some community funds. as well as donating to escape funds, please consider donating to these groups that shoulder the burden of rebuilding gaza's community. (thread)

This may be the end of the fighting. It certainly won't be the end of the genocide.

Palestinians will need massive amounts of aid as they begin to recover and rebuild. Gazans will still be living in the world's largest open air prison.
Oh God please let this be the end of it. Fifteen months of genocide. Fifteen months begging supposedly moral people to do the moral thing. Fifteen months watching people who know better lie or be silent when they knew what was going on.

I'm gonna be streaming art today! Been a while since I done a proper stream.

I'll also be trying to raise some cash to cover the cost of my partner's car battery. That's a whole story I rather not go into but it's essentially dead.

Anything helps, and I hope ya enjoy the art.

#Unfated Today we are posting: Crow!

Crow is by far the oldest of the main 5, serving as a horrible role model for all of them. He's a long retired war trickster, and an alcoholic. Serving as a healer and stealth agent on the battlefield, he was bothered enough by Jo to help her learn how to fight.

#Unfated Today we are revealing: Miles! Miles is a former soldier who returns to the Main 5's village and defects. His time in the military has given him an abrasive streak, but he's got a good heart beneath the stony facade. His pragmatism and composure are his primary strengths.

#Unfated #IndieDev Today we're posting: Aubrey! Aubrey is the heart of the main 5. She's kind, confident, and not afraid to hold the others back by the scruff of the neck.

While many of the others are reckless or scared, Aubrey is cool under pressure, often directing Jo's energy.

okay, we're starting with this

Step 1. call your own rep if you haven't already!

Step 2. sign this (cis women only please! cis guys, you can help by boosting)

Step 3. much depends on the success and reach of step 2; lots of options if this blows up

I talked about OCs with friends last night and remembered an NPC I played n made for a game I ran for my partner Plarm

This is Bingus, he's an "Ascended" Grimm and ran a small shop where he sells you wares for weird prices.

Want a funny instrument? Then dance for the rat, make him giggle.

So I just remember! I do have one more OC I can share

This is Trojan.EXE (She/ Any)

They're a Net Navi OC I play in a game ran by my friend, a navi created on accidental due to a comedy of errors between a PC's firewall fighting off scamware while in the middle of creating new navis.
