Eeeheeheeheeeee

I'm so heartbroken for Delores Huerta and all of the women who carried it silently for decades for "the greater good." At this point, if it requires women's exploitation, violation, and silence, it can't be classified as good.

The distance from Iran to California is 1,000 miles longer than Iran to D.C. It makes NO SENSE for Iran to strike California. The White House had the Marines blow up artillery shells over Camp Pendleton in October. Shrapnel fell all over the I5. If we start dying here, it's a false flag.

I wander back onto Tumblr for one cursed second and walk straight into yet another misogynoir aimed at Aabria, this time for CR4. The TTRPG/AP space keeps demonstrating that as much as folks hide their hands behind their "outcast" identities, they throw the same stones as mainstream culture.

GIRL. 3 for 3. Really battling myself over choosing humility or 💅 I started publishing my own work and *immediately* got into conversations with exactly the people I want to talk with and *immediately* received recognition as a media maker. Shoulda started years ago. What a trip.

Finalement, j'ai mon tatouage Parisien. Le meilleur souvenir. Il s'appelle: "Death is not the end OU ne touche pas des os" I fuggin love this city.

Hi Imani - I'm directing this question to you, but it's tangential to your thread so I'm pulling it into a qp. What does unionization look like in the AP space? I think I'm not comprehending the scale/scope of the space enough to understand how collective bargaining would serve the people in it.

That's two for two official festival selections! First podcast, first sound design, first time as a Dungeon Master - my imposter syndrome can kick rocks. Also, I love my witches. 💚🩵❤️💜

ChatGPT's psych profile of me based on all chats: "You're not trying to make art for an audience. You're trying to design a world where the audience and the art become the same thing - and you're struggling with the fact that the real world requires you to behave like they're separate first." oop

The flaw I see in this is that journalists are not the only profession that informs the people and holds government accountable. Artists do it too. The current system concentrates artistic exposure and influence in the elite body and denies the people the means to practice craft at similar levels.

Send them to Mars, seal them into their bunkers.

Smallpox blankets.

Who controls the British Crown? Who keeps the metric system down? We do. Who leaves Atlantis off the maps? Who keeps the Martians under wraps? We do. Who holds back the electric car? Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star? We do. Who robs cavefish of their sight? Who rigs every Oscar night? We do.

So, in high school I got a bit into "Illuminati and Freemasons in the music industry" conspiracy theories. The imagery and symbolism that Beyoncé and Gaga use has always been quite interesting to me. (Roc Nation!) But I set that stuff aside. It was unserious, illogical, unreasonable. Right?

Someone remind me what all those Catholic priests got caught doing. And how many youth pastors? It's almost like it's endemic to the religion itself.

I'm not being flippant, but as long as we're on topic: You know who else raped a 14 year old girl and then ritualistically sacrificed the child? The Christian God. The Almighty Father. ... Are we coming around on this being a demonic religion yet?

As an abuse survivor, I'm pretty nervous about the reaction I'm seeing from people who "just don't understand" how we got here. I lost 95% of my friends when I finally named what my ex had done. Some of them, the white men, immediately had his back. In this metaphor, they're MAGA.

Welp, now I find out that my favorite independent art supply store, which houses my favorite local black box theater, is closing at the end of March. Really feels like the tech oligarchs are succeeding at wiping all of the creative weirdos out of the Bay.

It's been difficult to respond to what's being unearthed right now, because I listen to Black and Indigenous women so I knew this is where we'd end up and I don't have anything of value to add. I'm horrified but not at all surprised. Hell, Oops, All Witches was my (tame) take on this history.

Holy shit, this was the beginning of the end of independent journalism in the US. Gawker died, and then we watched every other outlet collapse into each other until everything left was owned by private equity vulture capitalists or billionaires.

What's your name? I'm Sara Brink. I ran for AD15 in 2020 just for the opportunity to point out that Buffy Wicks bought that seat with Ron Conway's money. He spent about my whole year's salary supporting her in 2018 - for him, the equivalent of the price of a latte for me. Identify yourself.

Motherfucker ... I reiterate once again that the Bay Area is not progressive, and the normal people here are in danger. I want this to be a joke.

Who else remembers the full page ad Trump ran in the NYT against the Central Park 5? Remember what he called for? Remember what he thinks is appropriate punishment for rape? And that was one adult woman, let alone scores of children.

What if — just hear me out — we only allow Natives to govern for a bit moving forward. Cause if I can tell ya one thing, it’s this: Out of every demented, fcked up thing in those files, Native people will not be in it. Because Native people don’t have money or power here. See the correlation?

But, you see, men are scared to approach women now and they are so lonely.

eyyyyyy 🎉 I did not do myself any favors with my interrupted release schedule, but still got there as a total unknown in an oversaturated market in less than a year!

The “forefathers” of America didn’t call us “Merciless Indian Savages” in the Declaration of Independence for nothing. Your leaders — all of your presidents — have been doing what’s in those Epstein Files to Native people here since day ONE. It’s the original “Every accusation is a confession.”

Infuriating. The same year the city of Oakland established a local film incentive, ONE SINGLE COP made $500K in unaccounted-for overtime reviewing collision reports, making his total compensation higher than the incentive's $600K budget. Guess which got cut due to city budget shortfalls.

Eeheeheeheeeee 🧙‍♀️😈🐐

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

@EricLeeAtty via X: Children screaming and crying heard as a possible uprising of ~1500 underway at the ICE Children’s Concentration Camp in Dilley, TX. Multiple jurisdictions responding. Parts of the prison are on lockdown with reports of large groups of children being shackled together and moved.

I went to college in St. Paul. I have nothing but good memories of living in Minnesota. I have no idea how to respond to what's happening in the Twin Cities, except that I can feel my anger and resentment growing that there's been barely any federal presence in the Bay since 2016.

In which Ash, Annette, Andy and I bid farewell (for now) to Aelia and the Great Loom that binds us all. Also mentioned: Ofelia's rrrl big choices, Emmett as sweet baby witch Riz Gukgak, Nia's loving spider nightmares, TamaGODchis. I really missed a pun when Andy described the Weaver as a debugger.

Strong start to the year.

These lil video essays are right up my alley vibes-wise and production-wise, but I found myself feeling thoroughly seen listening to this one. Broken Sky was an incredible feat of my creative, organizational, administrative, and production capabilities. But add all that on top of this 👇👇👇

I loved watching Damen Lindelof learn from this same mistake they made writing LOST through The Leftovers and then Watchmen, a case study in how to nail a series in one season. talk about a show with one hell of an ending, phew

We out 🤛🎤🧙‍♀️

One of the reasons I left political organizing and turned to publishing genre fiction podcasts as my personal praxis is because political organizing was a joyless slog. More joy in your politics gets more people involved and excited. Look at Zohran.

But they're not targeting the people sympathetic to this take with the AI slop. They're targeting Boomers and incels. They're targeting the loneliest people and the people least disposed to critical thought. They're running a scam, you can't boycott your way out of it. In 2026: Strategize better.

AI blacklisters and boycotters have sprung up all over the internet, full of self-righteous fury, and continuing to ignore the canary in the coal mine that is the Bay Area arts and culture scene.

As an artist living and working in the shadow of the tech companies, everyone else's vitriolic, censorious reaction to the rise of AI is five to ten years too late. Bay Area artists were the canary in the coal mine and y'all were cool to let us choke so you could keep posting and scrolling.

Baby's first ad buy is live.

Knives out: the upper middle class are squabbling vicious children who do not deserve their inheritance Glass onion: the new elite are the stupidest murderous cunts alive and deserve your scorn Wake up dead man: those preaching anger as salvation are leading you to death, hope and kindness matter

I'm struggling with my fury with the left-of-center types who are so shocked, appalled, and outraged that the right is making excuses for what's indicated about Trump in the files. Our. society. HATES. children. girls. and women.

I'm running a Google Ads campaign for the month as an experiment and I'm a little bummed that only one week after it really kicked in, it's brought more traffic to my website than all of Broken Sky did. Paid advertising beats ingenuity and word of mouth, I guess.

2025 in review: Production company launched, first AP published, first ARG made, and yet none of that was as challenging as the year I had between July 2024 and July 2025. Here's to owning my own story in public, even when it makes me extremely anxious.

I swear I'm not playing favorites, but Sebastian's broken sanctum and @kobanya.bsky.social's Mousike were two of the most delightful games from Broken Sky because the mechanics were "draw" and "make music." I love games that challenge your perspective on storytelling and gameplay.

Wait. Wait. Let me go put this on my IRL resume lol Year one: Success. Year two: Pay me.
