I still think about this Onion headline *at least* 10-15 times a week

I need to write some smut. Haven't done any good filth in ages.

"So I've got a pretty simple backstory for my Vlaka Mystic" #Starfinder

Yes. It means you're drinking in a nazi bar.

I mean this is decent, but Netenyahu is a symptom. And Behind the Bastards had the time to do a better deep dive. youtu.be/0_Bwix9IjOE?...

Jesus fuck, she really seems a bad as...oh, as the left pointed out at the time.

It's the spookiest time of the year.

THE MEME IS REAL

Decided to do a Halloween game this year (we've talked about making it a thing but it never happens). One guy fancied a scary Star Wars story. The other two weren't bothered and my gaming BF is away. So, ALIEN it is. Got a tense situation, creepy monsters, a dash of lovecraft and NO BLACK GOO.

That Klein/Coates talk is interesting, but Klein (again) comes off badly. Keeps getting bodied on h8d won podcast, how embarassing.

Disappointing to see Prospect and Media Confidential accept hasbara points.

Liberals: don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good Me: yeah fair ok, show me the good Liberals: this isn't the time for fucking purity tests you little shit

I'd totally forgotten stocking these lovely minis bitd - definite uses for, eg Necromunda, Dark Sun, all manner of fantasy and post apoc settings...

I find it funny when liberals throw around the word "tankie" for people not voting Democrat, when the "harm reduction" argument is line for line that of the CPUSA, the nearest the US has to an actual tankie party. Very ungrateful to ally yourself with tankies and then attack them.

New rule. If you use the word "tankie" you have to be able to succinctly sum up the difference between the Communist Party of Britain, the Communist Party of Great Britain (Provisional Central Committee) and the New Communist Party and explain why they all split off from the original CPGB.

Same

Me: I like Bolognese sauce and I like oven roasted cauliflower, I wonder if someone has made a recipe for both, probably not... Internet: share.google/tgD3AWefIzi1...

"We studied more than 70 different elections that took place in 12 western European countries over several decades, and found that when mainstream parties take more anti-immigration positions, it leads to more support for the radical right, not less."

Just seen a pic of Alex Jones' new look. He looks like a sad penis with a landing strip bush cut.

Lol

The Rocky Horror Picture Show opened on US screens 50 years ago today. Initially a major box office bomb, cult cinema outsiders and queer audiences quickly took up the film’s mantle and turned it into a unique and exciting way of engaging with the movies. Remember kids, don’t dream it—be it!!

The OH is watching that Project Runway and... they subtitled the Indian guy. Uh...

Uh...is it just me or are there more Lovecraft references in #Genshin and Nod Krai? Obvs I spotted the earlier ones, but the amount feels higher. Wonder if that's going somewhere...

already seeing plenty of people saying “if the fascists get in it is all the fault of those left wing purists who failed to vote Labour” - find a little time to ask, what have Labour done that has made even those who held their nose when voting before find themselves unable to vote for them again

The only way in which the West Bank is not already annexed is in name. The military raids communities & institutions whenever it wants & looks the other way or actively aids settlers in pogroms against the Palestinians constantly. Always. Bibi's been building to this moment for a LONG time. 7/

Watched that Bohemian Rhapsody biopic. I assume there's some amount of mythmaking in it, but as a movie it was decently touching. Rami Malak was amazing. Every did a good turn but he was the star (of course).

Be a shame if Netenyahu got Luigi'd and the rest of those Knesset pussy bitches walked away because Israeli terrorists are cowards at heart.

The most accurate recreation of DS9 I've seen.

Few countries have been privatised as deep or as far as in Britain. This failed experiment has shaped your life. To learn how, explore our new project — Who Owns Britain? — at the link below. www.common-wealth.org/interactive/...

Terrorism case against Kneecap rapper Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh thrown out

liberals remain incapable of incorporating marginalised people or anyone already being subjected to state oppression into their analysis must be another day ending in y

The first fascistic tactic to look out for is a hate campaign against a particular religious, racial, or ethnic group. Like, for example, let's say a candidate emerges who calls all people of one nationality "rapists" and "criminals," while promising to ban immigrants from only one religious group.

NEW Quinnipiac poll of registered U.S. voters: • Half now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza • Only 47% see backing Israel as a U.S. interest, down from 69% in 2023 • 60% oppose more military aid to Israel • 58% favor UN recognition of a Palestinian state www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025...

Microsoft will no longer allow Israel to use its cloud services to enable its mass surveillance of occupied Palestinians – "the first known case of a US technology company withdrawing services provided to the Israeli military since the beginning of its war on Gaza"

this latest e.o. has me freaked t.f.o. and i know that the only way we make it through this is by having each other's backs and i really can't stomach that people were already lining up to save themselves by throwing others under the bus before it even started getting really bad

It always weirded me out how I and my mother were both very open and fair but also what felt like fashy at timed and this feels like putting a finger on it.

as an allistic person I am perpetually fascinated by how the neurotypicality/neurodivergence space intersects with the authoritarianism-egalitarianism spectrum, and how all over the place people’s understanding of power dynamics is within it

Also one thing worth noting is that many neurotypicals invested in leverage of hierarchies do so as compensation - on a level field, competence, trustworthiness, and principle are prioritized. Always think about what people who don’t want a level playing field stand to lose when it’s leveled.

If I could get non-autistic people to understand one thing, it wouldn't be that I have support needs. It would be that YOU have support needs.

I like this analogy for Bluesky, curious if folk have ideas on what that looks like.

Really would like to see more campaigns would take this approach that @katmabu.bsky.social did.

Honestly as someone still representing those kids, it's depressing how everyone forgot about them. I say this a lot, but the lesson from those protests from the American left writ large was "if you protest and get arrested, you're on your own."

But only once they're ssfely retired. Hmm, that seems legit...

They're saying the quiet part out loud again
