There are two kinds of people in the world: those who divide people into two kinds and those who

Straight up Nazi shit from the Telegraph. Fucking hell.

Blades '68 is a great prompt to talk about great #TTRPG cities! Cities are complicated to bring to the game table because they are so dense and complex, so cause and effect get scattered out through the whole... The updated Doskvol in Blades '68 shows how robust the original design is... 1/

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

This is genuinely insane, I clicked to see the years expecting the low part to be 70s or maybe 90s but its 2015!!!!! The entire anti trans panic is a decade old

Hey definitely call your senators about this. Like seriously.

my brain is tired and feathered

The first @rifftrax.com X @mst3kofficial.bsky.social fusion title has been announced! It’s DEATHSPORT with David Carradine and that guy that said “nose to anus” in Werewolf and then ran over some caribou before crashing! youtu.be/aGr5sWVzo64

All's Fair is a game where sex and intimacy are an expression of rebellion against a fascist regime. In a few weeks, you'll be able to hear me explore that roleplay with my dear friend and Quinn audio creator Nick Meyer, over on One Shot back the game at hornywizards.com in the meantime!!

get all four of our games as a bundle for only $20 itch.io/s/180112/kit... kitsune tails is SMB3 if nintendo had been brave enough to put lesbian fox girls in it, and kitsune zero is the prequel. steal the bodies and abilities of defeated enemies in midboss, or solve hat based push puzzles in UHD

From trans healthcare to abortion politics - the same actors keep appearing. On Thursday 5pm CET/11am EST we'll be live with @amnestyuk.bsky.social 's Chiara Capraro in Discord talking on their research tracing the political alliances shaping today’s anti-rights movement. discord.gg/bellingcat?e...

you can self host a webforum, chat, website and VOIP pretty easily from various self-hosting platforms online in a few clicks. I use nixihost, its $6/mo for hosting and ~$10/yr for a domain registration thru porkbun guess i'll be spinning mumble up again this week: github.com/mumble-voip/...

The consequences curve is now so sharp companies can do the finding out months before they fuck around

I'm only in favour of a social media ban if it's an ALL AGES ban.

I can now confirm my switch from photoshop to @krita.org and it's been great! Not without its challenges but I'm real happy having (finally) made the switch :) (plus, their newest version, in beta, has a better Text tool!)

Reactor's on a roll, here's another great piece, this one on illusion, Faustian bargains, and AI. Deliberately relating it to the ST:TNG "four lights" piece, it's become clear that LLMs are gaslighting machines: trusting their output creates a self-delusional loop. reactormag.com/the-most-fau...

A powerful reading of a classic ST:TNG episode. Survivors of abuse and gaslighting may find this validating, even healing. Also helpful for anyone who finds their sense of what is real unsettled these days. We all need to have our reality validated by others. reactormag.com/star-treks-u...

This thread is an excellent example of how we can learn from one another. And also how we can have our differences and have deep mutual respect. Ngā mihi nui to everyone who lives *this* way. #Kikorangi

This app did the thing yet again where it updated itself and turned “Require alt text before posting” off, so if you have that set, go into Settings > Accessibility and turn it back on (and if you don’t have it set, I recommend doing that)

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions! This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

I'm seeing so many clueless settlers now think that Billie Eilish invented the phrase "No one is illegal on stolen land" when Indigenous people have been saying that for decades in defense of our migrant relatives.

Reminder of the Norwegian laundresses who ruined Nazi uniforms during occupation www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LfJ...

i’m fascinated by this new strategy wjere multiple ai company CEOs have been going on tears tours this year so far complaining about how anti ai sentiment has hurt their businesses

the news cycle right now is unbearable. between the abduction & imprisonment of these children and the new wave of revelations about the child fucking elite, i just do not understand. how can you look at a child and feel any of those things. it seems incompatible with what i know about being human.

Yes!!! Now we need to keep up the pressure for all the other people - kids and adults - in ICE's clutches. This is a win, a real win, but it's just a start. www.cbc.ca/news/world/l...

Wall-to-wall discourse around sexual violence is pretty unbearable, and I say that as someone who reports on discourse about sexual violence. For anyone who needs to hear this, it is okay to take a break. It is okay to stop scrolling or to not be able to come up with something to say right now.

In 2017, six actresses told the LA Times that a prominent Hollywood director was sexually violent toward them. They were talking about Brett Ratner, who stood next to Melania Trump to celebrate the premiere of Melania, his eponymous documentary about the First Lady.

Y'know how Apple et al keep badgering you to do biometric security like FaceID? DON'T. And if you did l, turn it off NOW.

the mana on them uncles and aunties

All y'all, @mayorhere.bsky.social wants you to go climb a rock. 😁

For those of you who (like me) slept on all of the great indie games that came out in 2025, help is on the way! thank you @skycherry.bsky.social

Read this whole thread, please. Be angry, be sad (brokenhearted!), and resist. Solidarity.

If you aren't familiar with what DARVO is, get familiar with it. "Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender." The govt is relying on DARVO as a tactic on a national scale, and it is also increasingly a conservative tactic to attack outspoken critics of their ideas, theories, & renderings of history.

Trans people will never die. You could kill every one of us today, but more will be born tomorrow, and we will outlast this regime the way we've outlasted them all. When the monsters are dead, we will still be here.

DreamHaven indie bookstore in Minneapolis is back online:

Social studies teachers: With the 250th anniversary of the U.S., are you looking for resources that include critical questions and sources showing diverse experiences during that period? Check out this from @zinnedproject.bsky.social. #sschat #edusky www.zinnedproject.org/news/teachin...

a reporter asked “is mutual aid a form of resistance?” and i felt my body pulled into of a room of movement elders who have made this seem like a question i don’t have to think about to respond of course of course mutual aid is an expression of love love is an act of resistance

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities. Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Have yourself a retro little new year with @aeneas-nin.bsky.social Gods, I need actually play Caves of Qud.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution. If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Still a handful of days to get the entire Magica Riot series so far on sale in celebration of book one reaching the finals of the Indie Ink Awards! 🥰🎉

NEW: A Texas county medical examiner found that Geraldo Lunas Campos was choked to death by a guard while he was held in ICE custody earlier this month. Geraldo is the sixth person to die in ICE detention this year.

Because nobody makes money off this, we have a tendency to take the occasional unofficial hiatus - the motto at the top of our editorial workspace is "there's always no rush." But we're back at it again, and we have a bunch of great year-in-review stuff in the queue!

I process a lot of what’s going on around me through insects. Inspired by a good friend I made this drawing of a bombardier beetle spraying acid at ice. Abolish ICE

Concentration camp victims protest! The incredible bravery and fortitude and care involved in doing this ✊🏽 ‘some of them holding signs that included “Libertad para los niños,” or “Liberty for the kids.”‘
