if/ when I have fans who make character playlists for Lest We Forget and "Nobody's Soldier" by Hozier ISN'T on Jindor's playlist I'll be severely put out

How it feels to hop back into edits for LEST WE FORGET (I'm so excited 🥰 🐙)

SAG-AFTRA has released a statement on Tilly Norwood, the AI "performer," saying: “To be clear, 'Tilly Norwood' is not an actor, it’s a character generated by a computer program that was trained on the work of countless professional performers — without permission or compensation."

Latine authors you should support instead of Fr3ydis "pretending to be Mexican" M00n: @momoshaty.bsky.social ("Clairviolence" drops Oct21), Isabel Cañas, Mónica Ojeda, Leopoldo Gout, Mariana Enriquez, @vlatinalondon.bsky.social, Agustina Bazterrica, Dolores Reyes, and so many others.

This isn't funny its chilling.. It's fascism, its the Warsaw ghettos. Its kristalnacht, it's the red Terror, it's hunting people for their color and race, it's the banality of evil. Stupid dumb ignorant men who would rather hunt human beings than shelter them.

Gonna have to teach everyone from scratch that the president isn't your boss, he's your employee

Feel like if this is how the law works, there’s no reason to make a budget deal because there’s no reason to believe anything that you win via Congress will actually happen anyway.

The idea of "individual charity" being superior to "community responsibility" is, bluntly, twisted as fuck, and Christianity should be ashamed of it.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

Me: Oh I can upgrade my phone bc I've had this one for so long. Why haven't I done that already? New phone: Here's the 3 billion ways AI has been integrated into the phone and you can't get rid of it completely Me: .......ah

In his latest classic authoritarian playbook move, Donald Trump just indicted James Comey despite absolutely no evidence of crimes or wrongdoing. Once again, this is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. James Comey, whatever you think of him, is the victim of a politically weaponized DOJ.

Silksong is a very good game that I am very bad at.

I finally have my grubby little hands on my editing notes

These gomphrena just keep going and going. Always amazes me how complex simple-looking flowers are when you look closely 🌱

Big brass balls. If there’s some “crisis of masculinity” in America, it boils down to man-children who lack the cojones of this polite, soft-spoken, badass accountant and therefore fail to understand that “showing up for our neighbors” is what being a man means if it means anything.

something to keep in mind with fascist oligarchs swooping in to buy ALL OF MEDIA for pennies on the dollar is that a lot of corporate consolidation was sold to consumers as "imagine if your best friends mickey mouse and tony stark could play games with you" and it always came at labors' expense

It was never about “freedom.” It was always about who was in control.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

I was going to cancel an audition tonight because I was really feeling down on myself and then I ate dinner and it swung me back into my usual ornery self. You may not cast me but you WILL listen to my French accent for two minutes.

I had so much fun with this one!

You do realize that they're executing a full takeover of both legacy and social media, right?

This would make it illegal for any site that has trans content--not just porn, but everything from trans people posting selfies to essays to comics and stories featuring trans characters--illegal in the state. You've seen how fast the Age Restriction shit spread. Don't pretend this isn't possible

Book bans get headlines, but the bigger threat to books is hiding in plain sight: A handful of companies control how ebooks reach readers, and they can cut off access with a click. New from @mariabustillos.com in @columjournreview.bsky.social ⤵️

Commission (2024) #myrmidiacommission

This is ghastly.

I’m sure they’ll try stuff against civil-society groups and people if they find an opening, but the VP telling folks to call people’s bosses is sort of a tell that the fed govt. can’t lawfully or semi-lawfully do much here.

Corrupt druid demon Wynne 🕸️🥀 Demonify your OC commission for @kamikampi.bsky.social #art #dndart #commission

They used Kirk’s podcast to praise his alleged commitment to free speech, while announcing that they’ll be using the full force of the federal government to silence the left. Just so we’re clear on how disingenuous this is: Vance mentioned Soros by name. Soros has never promoted violence.

“But I am also going to offer some context and some nuance about the death of George Floyd that no one dares to say out loud, which is that this guy was a scumbag.” -Charlie Kirk

Hey look, I know that guy

I cannot explain why John Carpenter and John Waters are the same to my brain. Someone references The Thing and it summons a picture of John Waters in my mind's eye

So do I have this right: the Extremely Online head of the FBI missed that all the evidence on the bullets were 4chan memes, the suspect's social media is full of groyper memes, and he was only caught because his LEO father taught him how to shoot but not about STFU Friday?

Today in the Chicago area ICE shot & killed someone and threw Kat Abughazaleh candidate for Congress, on the ground.

One week until I get LEST WE FORGET's developmental edit back and I'm vibrating at a frequency that could shatter glass

Just so y'all know, it appears bad actors are spreading disinformation claiming that several high-profile Democratic governors are lowering flags to half-mast today for Charlie Kirk. I'm going to remind y'all that unless you see something about that on the Governor's Office website, it's for 9/11.

This is a Melissa Hortman appreciation account for the next 24 hours.

Oh, hey. Visa and Mastercard now say you can't pay for WoW. Magic the Gathering. FFXIV. DnD. Lord of the Rings. Because they're all "adult" content against their ToS just for being "fantasy". Let that sink in. Spread this like wildfire and have people in those circles call them. No quarter.

Yeah man fucking post this shit while ICE is literally dragging people out of their houses that'll give people an accurate understanding of what's actually going on in Chicago Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Russia sent drones into Polish airspace overnight, provoking the biggest crisis since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Poland invoked Article 4 of the NATO treaty to bring it before the whole body. If the provocation goes unanswered, it could encourage more reckless action. My write-up below.

Yeah, alright, no. No don't this. I'll do you a few fucking better and teach you right here and now how to do this: You game? Blurb and lesson time. Got you. First up, a SPOOC. This is one technique that can be expanded (gonna give you examples too). WRITING LESSONS AHOY: 🧵

The fact that this somehow isn't basic, Day One data/programming shit, everywhere is why every single programmer needs to take a data ethics class every single semester they're in school and as multiple modules woven through every single certification they obtain.

Did I mention I'm part of a virtual DND musical? The first two songs are up on YouTube. I play Onyx, a goblin rogue, and it's been a blast watching it all come to life :) youtu.be/NlVKASbZz0E?...

In case you missed it, I had a lot of fun with the bin prompts ❤️

So a group of trans folks in Portland are trying to secure funds for a property they can use to house homeless bipoc trans women and femmes as well as providing meals to the growing homeless population. Literally anything helps so please donate or spread the word! Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

! I've been banging this drum for months Due process is how you determine things like 'is this person a citizen' & 'did they break a law' GOP's insistence that noncitizens & lawbreakers shouldn't get due process is putting the racism-cart before the logic-horse ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

I was hiking with my dad and another group had a very sweet rescue pit bull who kept coming up to me with the energy of "is this guy bothering you, queen?"

We're still two weeks out from getting my developmental edits back and I can't wait to see how I can make this even spookier
