I wrote a little something for @tier-review.com On 24 Killers and what a home really is Thank you to @gracemachine.bsky.social and @phoenixsimms.bsky.social for the opportunity and the great edits.

Just posted a big update on behalf of my collaborator Gina about the physical Killing Our Gods book. It is happening!!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gin...

Put a good deal more time into this game after writing this and it continues to reveal how special it is... Rare to play something that feel so good as a toy and yet mature.

Yooooo! My girl @gracemachine.bsky.social got to write about Angeline Era so I'm not even mad I didn't get to! Go read it! GO READ IT!

🚨PLEASE BOOST🚨Salem and I got informed by our landlord about their intentions to bring us to court in three days if we don’t have our rent paid by then. We still need $1350. Any boosting would mean the world to two trans disabled lesbians so we can get out of this situation! #MutualAid

this game was fun :) I like when I’m a girl and have a shotgun.

Podcast time. You don't want to miss us talk about the Return to Silent Hill trailer!

🚨EMERGENCY🚨 We are TWO days late on rent and still need about $1350!! We are desperate for help and would extremely appreciate every repost we can get! Please boost to help out two disabled trans lesbians! #MutualAid #TransCrowdfund

You still got a few hours! Send in questions!

We are recording our pod today on SILLY POLLY BEAST ask us anything [email protected]

work has cut my hours to less than 3 days a week, leaving me barely able to pay bills could use any help while I figure out a way to get out of this shit show www.paypal.com/paypalme/sie...

"Through ecocide, you are killing the future." Razan Zuayter of the Arab Group for the Protection of Nature explains ecocide after the International People's Tribunal on Palestine finds Israel and Western governments guilty of the crime at an event in Barcelona.

TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY EP!!! Marcy is back from her 2 month long reward challenge to discuss Australian Survivor with AP! Tune in to hear about queer Survivor icon Kirby!

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union. They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration. More updates TK.

A snowy owl preening. November 22, 2025, Chicago.

It is legitimately astounding to me how much some use Social media primarily as a platform for scolding.

Nothing yet!! We’re really running low on food and would appreciate any help getting through the week!

Our current issue comes to a close with a new article on Silent Hill f, by @zweiteturm.bsky.social bulletpointsmonthly.com/2025/11/19/p...

Dragon Age: Origins is at once a game that is obnoxiously of its time, silly, juvenile, and ugly as sin. Yet, it is also forward-looking and adult in a way that AAA rpgs can struggle to be... It helps a lot to have Morrigan lol. Flat out one of the best-written characters in video games

I would encourage anyone offended at the mere *sight* or /knowledge/ of a trans woman in their midst to follow the instruction of Jesus and pluck out their eyes.

This is easily one of our favorite Safe Room episodes. Silent Hill f is a rich horror game with plenty to dig into, and @bluestrose.bsky.social and @gracemachine.bsky.social do an amazing job dissecting the good and the bad.

We saw. we gamed. We talked for three hours about it.

Hello. This is probably the best episode of The Safe Room podcast. Give it a listen and tell your pals. Thank you

Episode 39: Silent Hill f www.abnormalmapping.com/the-safe-roo...

I was right lol

670/1600!!! Any help keeping this momentum up by boosting means a lot!!

This is going to be a big ep...

Closet Crit returns and Sophie is back!!! For $1 a month you can hear my best friend and I yap about one of the best short stories ever written!

My co-editor wraps up our issue on IF with an interrogative and expansive essay on the ideological underpinings of desktop interfaces. Really rewarding and complex work.

Whenever I think about IF in the 2010s, I always notice that game designers were interested in retrofuturist takes on computer desktops. The first one I encountered, Digital: A Love Story, was even designed by someone who didn't grow up with the interfaces central to the game, namely the BBS.

We are continuing to post about IF... the issue is our most diverse and expansive yet...

New Stop Caring article from yours truly. @quimbles.bsky.social forced me to play the impressively mediocre videogame The Evil Within, so to """spite""" them I wrote about how the forced stealth section at the beginning reminded me of having sex with men. Always appreciate a read or a share!

Tried to dig into SHf's themes of domesticity and how they relate to these threads throughout the series.

Was replaying Halo 1 years ago and my wife told me to “stop shooting the flood” because they were “hungry little babies.” Time has validated her in ways neither of us could have imagined.

40/1000!! We still need an immediate ~$60 to take care of Salem’s overdraft, as well as get food and some of Salem’s meds. We’d really appreciate any reposts! Every $1 helps! #MutualAidRequest

Saw some ages ago say that they should make a silent hill about a gay man and I would humbly submit that this is SH2.

I asked Microsoft PR about this—specially the DHS using Halo IP to recruit for ICE—and the company declined to comment.

I've pledged not to write for the NYT until it reviews its anti-Palestinian bias, retracts "Screams Without Words," and calls for a U.S. arms embargo on Israel. I'm honored to join Catherine Lacey, Kiese Laymon, Sally Rooney, and many more in this www.boycottdivestunsubscribe.com/opinion-boyc...

Always great to have @gracemachine.bsky.social on the site, in this case interrogating (on its 70th anniversary) why Return Of The King's most interesting chapter never makes the cut.

Salem’s been hit with back-to-back bills and is sitting at an overdraft of $100. We’re missing about $800 for rent due on the 5th. And the likely cutting of SNAP benefits is hitting us hard. We’re desperate — please repost to help two disabled trans lesbians raise $1000! #MutualAid

Wrote about Return of the King’s thematic lynchpin, the chapter that most hovers in my mind.

In her first interview since he was killed by federal agents, Silverio Villegas González's partner Blanca Mora talked about the impact his death has had on their family. Be sure to read this moving piece by Alma Campos about Silverio's final journey back to Loma de Chupio, Michoacán.

We’re still at $112; getting $100 more would really help us out with food for the rest of the month. Please boost to help out two trans lesbians! #MutualAid

If you are going to get into my mentions and call me stupid I think you should at least 1) read at least one other thing I’ve written other than the thing that has gotten you mad. 2) watch this key and peele sketch and reflect on it for 15 minutes. after that it’s fair game.

Oh that blew the fuck up huh.

Coming in hot with a take that critics are calling "pedantic," "exhausting," and "overwrought." I do think I'm right about this though lol
