It's so unbelievable Snopes had to confirm it: www.snopes.com/fact-check/t...

This is seriously a 'fundraising' email Trump's Never Surrender PAC sent out, essentially saying "If you haven't given me money, we'll have to assume you're an illegal alien and have ICE track you down." It's pure mob-boss extortion.

I was just following orders

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Hello. It's my final week as a full time game designer, and as if to underline why I can't do this anymore, I currently can't afford to cover my bills at the end of the month. All of my work on itch is on sale. Tell your friends, buy something, thank you very much. itch.io/s/179351/jan...

There are four lights

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

Update: The minibus that included HHS funding passed the House without any anti-trans riders. This almost guarantees the HHS bill will pass the Senate with no anti-trans riders. A huge victory for trans people despite tons of anti-trans attack ads.

Tell me your pets name in a gif

What. The fuck. Is happening. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

Democratic leaders need to fear being branded as collaborators more than they fear being called soft on crime

absolutely insane that there are Democrats considering voting to send more money to fund this evil

Gee, I wonder what's one of the causes for this? Y'all are literally killing others, future generations, and even possibly yourself just because y'all are too lazy to draw, write, or do actual research, or you must think Gen AI is something special and interesting. Stop fucking using it.

I shared this earlier. You should REALLY watch it. It's such an excellent, clear breakdown of exactly why the police are fundamentally a broken institution whose existence itself is an act of oppression. Not just now, but since Police were a thing. Brilliant messaging.

The lesson of the Holocaust is that people involved in that chain are either eager participants, or will quietly go along with it despite misgivings.

Hey you! Are you a TTRPG writer staring at discourse on bluesky??? Would you rather be writing for a game? I want to pay you (at $0.20/word) to write for a zine month project! I'm seeking folks interested in folk stories and examining power structures in storytelling!

I'm just a girl, a girl & a girl, hovering ethereally behind a boy, asking him—for the love of all that is unholy—to please be more careful with that hag eye I gifted you! Idiot. Chapter 6 of Curse of Strahd weighs heavier on the heart than it does on the hands. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

"It wasn't murder, and if you say it was murder we will kill you, which again will not be murder."

Anyway it would be cool if the left was willing to organize around women’s liberation, because the right is definitely organizing around misogynist contempt.

Now that the gifts have been given I can post about the amazingly fulfilling 7 piece pint job I was hired to do last year for someones annual New Years one shot. I live for custom tabletop jobs, they bring me immense amounts of joy to work on.

Hell yes, shut it all down. Call your representatives and tell them to actually do the only thing they can to halt this madness.

Notice how the people who, for years, have been saying Ashli Babbitt did nothing wrong and was murdered in cold blood, despite video showing otherwise, claim the shooting of a woman by an ICE officer was justified as self-defense, despite the video showing otherwise.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

I spent an excessive number of years moderating a gaming forum and I learned a great deal about community spaces and cultivation, whether I wanted to or not. I have critical advice for anyone who runs a game store or gaming convention. Please share this thread with people who run those things.

The moderate position here is that every single ICE agent should be tried and put in prison for their many crimes. That's the baseline

Every country needs to be following Finland's lead here. Media literary skills are going to be crucially important in the age of AI, where knowing what's real and what's not is going to be increasingly difficult apnews.com/article/fake...

We love the Cox

Personally, I'm a fan of...Cox?

i almost never like my art on release but.... I'm really proud of this one!!!!! Hope everyone enjoys Lorwyn, it's one of my favorite planes. I got to work on it from concept stage to final art ^^ <3

Microslop

I never thought I would see a FIFA Peace Prize winner behave in such a manner.

Remember that time racist pedophiles started an illegal war in Venezuela?

He won’t admit it but Los Angeles absolutely beat his fucking ass when he tried to take over LA. We’re still dealing with ICE raid bullshit but at least in North Hollywood we made it fucking KNOWN you do not fuck with us.

so while most of you have been absolutely lovely — and thanks for that btw! — it is sadly time for the quarterly reminder: if you are being "playfully" rude in the replies of someone you have not met, you are just being rude. you have not yet earned the good faith required for joking rudeness!

Yes, I know you get steam when you boil water, it just… vapor okay?! DROPLETS! Anyway, come check out our dive through the geologically intriguing structure of White Plume Mountain, where you too can leverage universe warping power to create Saran Wrap! Just don’t poke it. Bad.

'Sup, Schickheads! The White Plume Mountain deep dive wraps up with a raging case of instant super-tetanus, bellies full of crab boil & a haul of legendary weapons. Plus one 6-foot hookah for good measure. Cue the @dandillon.bsky.social cold open... critical-lit.simplecast.com/episodes/whi...

I too got an email today offering access to the content to review etc. They got a firm no and told to remove my email from their list. To be extremely clear, I DO NOT SUPPORT AI. Nor do I support groups that treat others poorly. I have yet to hear good things about them.

Jesus, the AI slop has gained 50+ votes in an hour. They're botting again. Hope we can maintain this lead and kick this anti-art ass.

Throw the entire Professor in the incinerator. Get fucked.

For FUCK's sake. We knew it was coming, here it is

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

Who says you can't leave Barovia? Our holiday hiatus is the 1979 TSR module White Plume Mountain, written exactly one time and no more by Lawrence Schick. It's surely chock full of renegade, deranged, fanatical gnomes! critical-lit.simplecast.com/episodes/whi...

This collection of 5E player options, creatures, items, and a bit of lore is a steal. Worth it for the Baba Yaga section alone.

Starve them. Drown them. Watch them all rot.

Don't go back to the nazi bar. They want to pretend they're not the nazi bar. They're the nazi bar. Nothing else matters.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.
