It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

Episode 3 out now in the main feed. Strange weather portends a familiar threat.

Two of my favorite flowers, all in bloom today.

Scavengers Reign is one of the best things I've ever seen. I can't believe how good it is.

(Wandering around the house, muttering to myself) "Teeth Meat anatomy. Teeth meat anatomy. Teeth meat-"

Okay, look. I Saw the TV Glow is on Tubi.

Episode 3 of Zeck vs Colonel Destroyer is out now on Patreon! Amid a scene of devastation, strange weather may turn the tide.

"Ka is a wheel, Pokey."

My wife's description of the videogames I play: "Roguelike castletopias."

It's Spring in Ohio.

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

Episode 2 is out now on the main feed! A small family on the edge of the map are menaced by the Imperial soldiers occupying their home.

Well does it?

This is false. Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott. Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.

The best time to stop using Grammarly was years ago. The second best time is right now

fyi this might be the best post-Dark Tower novel Steve has done, and it is INCREDIBLY slept-on. lots of people don't even know about it! but it's a pointed resumption of a lot of his "classic" 80s modes (nostalgia and domestic horror) with the "mature style" he developed through the 90s and 00s

Condiment Sow.

If you're in the game industry and use LinkedIn, please do me a favor and share my post about Sentona Games screwing me out of money I'm owed. Thank you

Robert Pollard from Guided by Voices would have been my homeroom teacher, but that was the year he quit teaching and committed to music.

Meta has a history of torturing their moderators and providing NOTHING in the way of mental health care. How do I know? Because I used to be a moderator for Meta and I got a $3,500 settlement for the PTSD they gave me. When we tried to unionize, they moved their moderation to the Philippines.

Japanese artist Masayo Fukuda hand-cut this life-sized octopus from one sheet of paper. Known as Kirie in Japanese (translated as “cut picture”), the art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasting it against a black background to reveal the design.

I've gotta get back in to Qud.

Well the new Mitski album is great, obviously

H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban all my books, & any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps & say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

A friend of mine had this game and told me all about it, but I never got to go over and play it at his house. I'd pictured it being way gorier.

the right's propaganda against trans people has been one of their most successful campaigns as of late. it's been so obviously astroturfed, so clearly manufactured. but they have useful toadies like singal who gets opinion pieces in the NYT to convince the liberals it's okay

it's 2016: north carolina introduces a bill to ban trans people from using bathrooms safely. there's a national outcry; companies withdraw business up to and including the NCAA cancelling a publicized game. the bill fails. it's 2026: kansas passes a law nullifying trans people's licenses. crickets.

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker This was never about woman's sports

Ten days out from having a syncope and falling on my face, I can definitely say I do not recommend. 1 star out of 5.

Well holy fucking shit. Ring cancelled their partnership with Flock. Keep pressure on them to stop volunteering their feeds to state, local, and federal agencies, though, because that part's still going.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it. I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.” 1/
