Coder by day, tabletop rpgs when I can.
The novel reminded me of the stories my mom would tell, from her Italian and Slavic background, of witches and of her gifts of foresight and warnings. Which of course nurtured in me a love of horror (especially the type Moreno-Garcia writes) which I now see in my son.

The second is The Bewitching by @silviamg.bsky.social a wonderful book that felt like a warm hug from my mom and made me a bit nostalgic for the time I was in a student at a New England college. The only thing that made me read it in chunks is my now 9 year old who wanted to, you know, do things. :)

It says a whole lot that in what DriveThruRPG wrote and some defenses of it, the violence is against marginalized identities and/or more extreme than what the intro had.

Also, if you're concerned about personal safety:

History shows that, under fascism, staying passive comes with no better odds of survival than engaging in civil, covert, or even military resistance. So you might as well resist in whatever way your skills, age, ability,.and conscience permit.
There is always something you can do to gum up the works of fascism.

A story. Claude Cahun. The queer nonbinary French-Jewish photographer.

Nazis conquered France, were training soldiers on Jersey, where Cahun lived w/their partner, Marcel Moore.

They did disinfo & morale smashing via Surrealism.

DOGE’s Website Is Just One Big X Ad
The source code for the new Department of Government Efficiency’s “official US government website” points to X as its primary source of authority, while sharing links to the site sends users to x.com.
