From @jespermyrfors.bsky.social, The Dark set art director over on Facebook: “The Magic: The Gathering release The Dark was 100% a commentary on the evils and hypocrisy of bigoted right wing Christians…” Some cards for context and the set list: scryfall.com/sets/drk

Also if you normally scroll past mutual aid posts, now is a good time to start interacting with them. I know you're probably also broke, the economy for people in my social circles sucks everywhere, but you can share them. You can normalize lifting people up and asking for the community to help.

Is there anyone can give me esim works in gaza?

Is saying racist things really racist though? Join us on every fucking talking heads talk show for the rest of eternity to discuss this ridiculous question over and over and over and over again.

Ugh I forgot to make a new post yesterday. I'll make a new one when I wake up.

Antisemitism and Transphobia will both just completely destroy your ability to think or function normally in society like some kind of memetic prion disease

Canada doesn't have anything like SNAP. I want every Canadian who thinks we don't need one to look at the horror in the US. at the conversations about how food banks can't fill the gap. that's what our leaders have let us live with for generations. we need a SNAP program. we need it now.

it’s black cat day and he is a black cat! wow

I signed on to this letter.

Yes, you can wear anything. There is no law about uniforms. Departments make them up. This has always been true, but many counted on tradition or discretion to keep it in check. Turns out, law enforcement officers don't have nearly as many rules as some people think!

OpenAI put out a press release today addressing mental health concerns. I have many issues with it, but something super troubling: They estimate a WEEKLY prevalence of 560,000 users displaying signs of psychosis or mania and 1.2 MILLION users indicating suicidal plan/intent.

Folks, Maya’s cat Eggs is in the hospital and facing surgery. It’s such a traumatic time. Let’s help ease some of the stress and help her with funding.

Someone is trying to debate me for saying Revengeance as one of the best games ever made and I'm sorry but Rules of Nature rips and it accidentally nailed the incoherence of modern day American fascism more correctly than any other piece of media so I think my case is strong.

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have. Python foundation said no and rejected the grant. If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

Autistic teens are nearly 2x as likely to have an anxiety disorder—not only due to social pressures and sensory overload, but also bc of interoception differences (ability to tune into internal bodily signals like toileting urges, or hunger). TY @craeioe.bsky.social: crae.ioe.ac.uk/experiences-...

The most fun thing about games journalism archeology isn't reading appallingly misguided takes from the year 2000... It's seeing the ad for Neoplanet still pulsing away in the corner of a semi-ancient version of CNET. Thank you, @archive.org. None of this would be possible without you.

The amusing thing about the game My Friendly Neighborhood is that the game itself is an inversion of the whole subversive children medium trope. Like it basically just takes all the horror tropes and themes, then just makes them wholesome. Bonus points for its story being very relevant.

Another sign I'm becoming an old crank is that I know that I'm right and I'm going to make it other people's problem

STILL 2400/3500! Early doctor turned into all day doctor turned into doctors every day, all week. That's a lotta bus fares, not to mention time and energy I don't have. Anyway, they hope they can help with the pain, at least!

We're 18 days (!) away from the start of our 19th run. Why not spend the next week with us welcoming the volunteers working in front and behind the cameras to keep our show running? Each shift runs 6 hours, features beloved segments, and might just have a few additional surprises or cross-overs.

This is basically an admission from the Democrats that the core of the party as an institution doesn't believe in anything. They aren't controlled opposition in the traditional sense, the GOP isn't paying them, but they are controlled by a kind of worldview that reduces politics to team sports.

Yet another Democratic consultancy group draws up yet another plan designed to lose, framed as a plan designed to win. Its recommendation: doing everything they've already been doing that has led to its state of absolute impotence, framed, once again, as a bold new direction.

Philly area: there's a map of food resources here if SNAP/WIC outages have you scared.

It's not part of the Steam Sale, but I'll take any opportunity to remind folks that you can also get Red Candle's second game, Devotion, DRM free on their site. And you should, because it's extraordinary One of the absolute best games of its style

BEGGING people to use something like this and not VCR OSD Mono

I grew up hearing "churches should take care of that" whenever something bad came up, and when I said "then why don't we run a food pantry big enough for everybody on food assistance and fund it with tithing instead of shitty sandwiches once a week" it sure was not well received.

I cannot tell you how many tech journalists at prominent media organizations do not understand this

I miss coffee

impossible to overstate the degree to which we are being governed by people whose formative politics is gamergate, but DHS posting Halo memes to recruit for ICE is pretty close.

In any case, I'd love to read a piece interviewing Mike Johnson's constituents. Louisiana has nearly 800,000 SNAP recipients and the food pantries in his district hub of Shreveport are already scrambling to make up the difference. I bet there will be some stories there.

Please help me afford groceries. 🙏🏾 $0/$100

3. Detention Speaking of games that helped set the bar for Horror games, Detention is a masterpiece, set against a brutal political backdrop of 1960s Taiwan, it's a deeply effecting story that is masterfully told and spawned both film and TV adaptations. Any fan of indie horror should play this!

I like genuinely think the video games industry owes bi people as a whole an apology.

I'm so tired again. This whole having to beg to survive thing isn't working out emotionally but I don't have any other options

“Walmart was the top employer of SNAP recipients in five states and one of the top four employers in the remaining four states. McDonald’s was among the top five employers of Medicaid enrollees in five of six states and SNAP recipients in eight of nine states.” www.cnbc.com/2020/11/19/w...

This is a cross section of activity (as OP notes, there is so, so much extending into the burbs that cannot fit on one map) but a good start in understanding the current situation

Please help angel!!!
