I felt like I was losing my mind watching this person's remarks and had to write about how disgusting they are.
Sarah Hurwitz Profanes the Holocaust
Holocaust education has worked too well for the Obama speechwriter, since when she rationalizes Israel's genocide, "I sound obscene." Maybe sit with that, Sarah

Alessandra Korap is a hero. Not Gavin Newsom. Not Helder Barbalho. Not Lula. Not Kier Starmer. Not any politician attending COP30.
Alessandra Korap led her people in a fight against a mining giant who threatened their territory. She received threats in response. She has never backed down!

This was Alessandra Korap Munduruku this morning. She lives in the Brazilian state where COP is taking place this year! She was not given a pass into the Blue Zone.
These are the voices you should be listening to, boosting, and celebrating. Not the politicians who are attending #COP30!

kinda goes with what i always say about self reviews. YOU GET A VOICE TOO AND YOU CAN USE IT TO SAY YOU ARE AWESOME. GIVE YOURSELF FIVE STARS. you worked hard and you deserve it. just dont think artists should feel bad about thinking theyre amazing because they are. were all literally one of a kind

Started Urban Shadows and it is so nice when players get immediately invested in your NPCs because I introduced one to a player as his character's closest friend and he's now so concerned if she's going to be ok

Maybe it's childish and unprofessional but I kinda don't care for people publicly gushing about wizard school IP 'for research' in professional settings especially when you open with losing friends over it. Peace and love 🥰

Looks like the article has been updated to suggest maybe they misread the policy.
I see people complaining that this also disabled their spam filters, though I still see new messages showing up in spam so it's still working fine for me after disabling things.

Fun fact: this is explicitly why Dick Wolf created Law & Order: he violently hates defense attorneys and felt tere weren't enough shows about how defendants and their lawyers are scum
(also when somebody "gets off on a technicality" that actually means the cops committed a crime against them)

I got pulled aside and strip searched while waiting in line at the airport to visit my dying grandfather. I was in tears and the TSA manager with a clear Napoleon complex actively delighted in my misery.
That was almost a decade ago and I haven't been on an airplane since.

As a former travel agent & airline employee who has traveled 100s of thousands of miles, no. It won't improve shit. The problem with air travel civility is entitlement over the enshittification of flying, not the ladies in yoga pants & crop tops. Make FLYING better.

I understand that many people need remote work and this isn't a compromise, but maybe uhh. Don't spam every single job listing with "I wish this was remote :(((" cuz it's probably making things worse for you ^^;;

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives.
If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜
