With Destiny 2 wrapping up, does anyone have a favorite shape that appears in your squares on d2scrub.land? I've always liked this dinosaur looking dude in mine.

Running a game of Clocktower today, continuing to fulfill my lifelong dream of playing Philip Seymour Hoffman in the Hunger Games

In this paper I will be discussing how Fruits Basket and The Wizard of Oz tell the same story about a young girl (with dead parents) provides adult men with the tools they need to emotionally heal themselves—

If you think Minnesotans sat around and waited for some politician to tell them to protect their neighbors, oh honey. You don't know Minnesotans at all.

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

Reading bell hooks’ The Will to Change, thinking about how much I hated the Sociology 101 course I took as a 17-year-old boy raised in the “imperialist, white supremacist, capitalist patriarchy” as bell hooks puts it, and how resistant I would have been to this book if I’d read it when it came out.

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street

I’m so excited to hear how it was this man’s fault that he was shot five times while lying on the ground under a pile of federal agents

Most of the propaganda I’ve seen about Minneapolis boils down to: “If you behave, the system won’t hurt you.” This system has always decided what “behaving” means *after* it hurts you.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism. Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

I don't like the death squads

Jacob Frey: "To ICE -- get the fuck out of Minneapolis"

I don’t think we talk enough about how impressive it is to compress thirteen PG movies into a single film.

I feel like we could win over every suburbanite to socialism if we pointed out that we’d basically be running the country as a Costco.

I gave Guardian Theater a light coat of relatively fresh paint: guardian.theater

My favorite photo from the last night, with the saturation cranked to 11

I finally listened to an episode of a @murderxbryan.bsky.social podcast, and you can’t convince me that he and Tim Robinson are different people.

If the taxes I pay on my writing are used to bail out an industry founded on stealing and then replacing my writing, I swear to god, I am going to do so much angry writing

Pistol Dust ratscapades

Pronouncing Patagonia the way Casa Bonita is pronounced

I played enough of a game I don’t care about to unlock the ability to play as my favorite childhood action figures in the game I don’t care about.

A Congresswoman calls for everyone like me to be locked up. The world's richest man proposes I be subject to a Nazi medical experiment. I no longer flinch at the sight of the soldiers with assault rifles on my commute. A billboard for AI tells me "keep thinking." One cold brew with oat milk, please

We’re looking for a developer-journalist to join @propublica.org’s News Applications team. You would write code, analyze data, build interactives — all in the service of public interest journalism. Check it out: job-boards.greenhouse.io/propublica/j...

If I had a nickel for every time the fintech company I’m banking with imploded, I’d have three nickels. 🪦 Simple 🪦 One 🪦 Qube I just want envelope budgeting baked directly into my bank app. Back to YNAB + a regular bank/credit union again…

Have another. (by hand-drawn-square.tumblr.com)

I spent six months applying primarily to jobs in the public sector, at non-profits, coops, etc. I’ve recently had to widen my net to include working for regular, greedy capitalists, and it’s wild how many of the “normal” job listings are now asking you to *highlight* your experience using AI tools.

I'm coming up on nine months of post-layoff unemployment. Savings are starting to run thin, and I'd really like to keep my house, so: Please buy some stickers and/or magnets. Mayhaps a shirt. Perchance a tote bag?

I've rebuilt d2srl.club and added two new features: - a "Featured Items Only" toggle for Cutting Edge - a "Require Item Category" selector for Arms Week Let me know if I broke anything along the way.

I’m rereading Wicked, and it made me think to play my least favorite game, “Am I older than that actor was?” with the Wizard of Oz. Yes: Margaret Hamilton was 36 when she played the Wicked Witch of the West 🙈 At least I’ve got a ways to go to catch Billie Burke’s Glinda at 55 😮‍💨

I have never DM’d, but I assume I’d be great at it because I use all of the same conversational filler words as Brennan Lee Mulligan.

Yesterday's BL giveaway on Itch unexpectedly raised ~$6k from generous tips & donations, thank you! We will be donating it all to charity, split between two causes: Parkinson's support, for Ozzy, and LGBTQIA+ support, because Itch chose that same moment to do what they did.

I am incredibly honored to be the DFL endorsed candidate for Minneapolis Mayor. This endorsement is a message that Minneapolis residents are done with broken promises, vetoes, and politics as usual. It’s a mandate to build a city that works for all of us. fatehformayor.com/donate

If we took the entire DHS budget and used it to build the best high speed rail network in the world, we wouldn’t need DHS, because no one would feel compelled to do a terrorism ever again. And then we could use the leftover money to also feed and house everyone and give them healthcare.

You are cordially invited to our Anti-Prime Sale, where every purchase will financially support bookstores, NOT billionaires 🥳

Using the SSA mailing list to puff up the dogshit bill you just passed is fucking evil. If nothing else (and there's a lot of potential "else"), rising healthcare costs are going fuck over *everyone* you're perporting this bill supports.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Keep in mind that the cuts to Medicaid don’t go into effect until late 2026 conveniently after the midterm elections. Do not be fooled. Vote these ghouls out. Show up and VOTE in the midterms.

It’s also bothered me that hoarding disorder pathologizes hoarding any number of things and yet doesn’t include money

I know there’s no silver bullet to fixing the world, but I still think demanding those who govern to live like their most disadvantaged citizens would go a long way. Oh, you think you deserve housing, healthcare, food, etc. as an elected official? Provide those services as the default for everyone.

Guess it got pretty windy last night…

Watching @gamechangershow.bsky.social’s Drinking Game made me realize that @cardsagainsthumanity.com is a hidden identity game, where most of the laughter in the room is the players delicately manipulating the judge into picking their card, rather than because any of the cards are actually funny.

Googling "Scott Pilgrim picaresque" does not bring up nearly as many results as I expected. Scott Pilgrim and Barry Lyndon are the same awful person.

Hell. Yes.

Internet Roadtrip is my favorite thing on the internet right now—it’s basically Twitch Plays Google Street View. They started in Boston, spent several weeks on a quest to cross the Canadian border, and are now exploring New Brunswick. neal.fun/internet-roa...
