hey everyone wanna see what a manufactured hate campaign is shaped like???

Liberal Democrats do not believe we should have won 100% of the seats in Richmond with only 51% of the vote Just as Reform in Wigan should not have won 96% of available seats with 46% of the vote These are just two recent examples highlighting why we need to fix our politics

For those interested, George Pratt has sent another email…

CIS PEOPLE TIME TO STEP UP it’s once again time to yell at our bad government via online comment form the FCC is trying to make trans and nonbinary content require special ratings on shows GLAAD has a good writeup on it below TELL ‘EM NO direct link to comment form: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

So, umm, I've made a game. I've attempted to get the requirements down as far as I could but still have a fun little 2 player wargame. You'll need a pencil and a willing victim/second player. Would anyone like a copy to try it? #Nerdlings

I would read Guy N. Smith's RIPPER

Genuinely struggling to fill the reviews section of the next issue

Let your characters and world be icebergs, in which most of their Being is in fact Hidden From View but supplies motivation and context at the right moments.

Hehehe.

One of the things that I hope the AP book helps with is the inaccurate idea that “success” or “visibility” in TTRPGs means a stable, liveable, longterm income.

The finest we ran on The Independent’s arts pages (and I cannot even remember what the piece was about): How much is that dodgy innuendo?

There are days when I miss being an editor. I loved writing headlines. Whoever did this, I hope they took the rest of the day off.

You have to support the projects you love with money. I am sorry we do not live in a world where that is not the truth.

Someone at a convention once said to a friend who was working the booth with me that he liked my work but he wasn't going to buy anything because "Chris is successful enough and doesn't need my money". Anyway I'm no longer a full time game designer because I didn't make enough money to live.

if you're cis and you are asked by your management to police bathrooms, "can you confirm in writing that you are ordering me to approach customers to discuss their sex?" is an email no manager wants to reply to

I answer soooo many questions writers wouldn't need to send me if they would only subscribe to my blog.... writerbeware.blog

PSA for YouTube Creators! Just wanna share this in case you don't want Google to have access to remix your YouTube shorts with GenAI using Gemini! YOU ARE AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED. Here is what it's doing and how to opt out of said option if you don't want your shorts to be remixed with AI.

Nothing says "I have no respect for art or artists and you can disregard anything I have to say" quite like having a big ol' slop thumbnail for your YouTube video.

UNDERGROWTH - The Funnel Webs are as aggressive as they are violent. Avoid at all costs

Squishy rat sandwich

New episode of “Is it cack?”

This, from Amnesty International, tells you all you need to know about transphobic bias in UK mainstream media.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

You can tell a lot about our current cultural moment by reading the TVTropes "Headscratchers" page for Jaws, where multiple entries basically ask, "Why is the shark so unusually large and aggressive?" and the replies all explain that Jaws is a movie about an unusually large and aggressive shark.

New EHRC guidance is due today. Remember: ➡️ Early reports based on unattributed briefings are spin, not facts. ➡️ This is civil law around who can and cannot bring discrimination claims - not criminal law. ➡️ Whatever it says, it is a choice by this government. They can fix it. ➡️ We will keep going.

Actually as a reminder for certain meds when it's above 25c it's best to keep them in the fridge, concerta is one of these, and we're coming into a period of 27c+ weather so plan accordingly

‘Think back to your childhood. Do you remember when the anxiety started.’

This headline is fuel for the right-wing anti-migrant reaction machine, but the article reveals the employer knowingly brought her to the UK under a visitor visa to employ her, then denied her a work permit—and most importantly!—refused to pay her any wages. This looks approximate to modern slavery

Baltimoreans! DMVers! People from PA/NY/elsewhere who don't mind a hike! GameFace 2026 is this weekend (May 23rd-24th). I'll be vending at Table 4 (at the edge of that alley left of the bar) both days. Come say hi!

This is either proof that Google’s AI has no actual intelligence or it’s suddenly just got a massive dose of self-awareness*. * yes, I know it’s the first one.

We lost another legend. Tom Kane has passed away today, who was best known for voicing Professor Utonium and HIM from "The Powerpuff Girls." His voice will always be with my childhood. Thank you for the wonderful memories, Tom. May Rest in Peace🕊️

YO PLEASE WATCH THIS IM FUCKING SCREAMING

The contrast between the number of media requests I got when rich people on a cruise were facing a deadly, but contained outbreak versus now that some of the poorest people in the world are facing a deadly and devastating epidemic is just so so stark and it just really annoys the hell out of me.

this is a masterpiece

Dudes with hobbies rock.

It's done. It's all done! (Apart from gluing sand and grass on the bases of the last two miniatures.) I've painted all the miniatures for our RuneQuest game at Chaosium Con UK.

The final episode of the Murder, She Wrote aired 30 years ago #OTD 19 May 1996. S12E24 "Death by Demographics" The episode title refers to the series having been moved to a timeslot where it went up against Friends, which ultimately triggered a ratings drop and led to CBS cancelling the show.
