Really excited to be doing a little stretch goal bonus writing for Blades '68!

Got there quick! Let's see how far we get as the game gets harder Every goal reached, she'll take something off! #stripgame

Can you beat my Card Shark, Jak, in strip poker? Every goal reached, she'll take something off! #stripgame

I need help. I've had depression most of my life, but the last 2 years have been especially difficult. I need therapy, but it's expensive, so I'd like to sell 5 portraits of yourselves or your favorite characters for 30€ 😔🙏

Hi new accounts don't forget the boobs and butts setting

I dim the lights, and think about you. Spend sleepless nights, and think about you. You said you loved me, or were you just being kind? Or am I losing my mind?

love when my cat (girlfriend) brings me a dead mouse (some white guy YouTuber I've never heard of) and starts meowing at me (complaining about how wrong he is) until I pet her (untranslatable t4t idiom). Love her so much (love her so much), thank you for sharing (untranslatable t4t idiom).

frieren drawing meme but it's A.B.A. Guilty Gear

The appropriate reparations for centuries of extractive colonialism is freely providing the resources — technology, tools, money — to build out local renewable energy infrastructure globally, so that every human community has access to energy ample to meet all their needs so they can thrive.

gonna keep reposting this until i don't have to www.liberalcurrents.com/we-need-to-t...

The AI nostalgia slop is interesting because the unstated material condition that underpins the whole thing regardless of the target era is "the Internet had not permeated all of culture yet." anyway the internet must be destroyed bsky.app/profile/ztul...

This is unironically a lot worse than Jimmy Kimmel but you won't see 1/1000 of the outrage

i reference Dream Askew / Dream Apart SO frequently when editing, giving design feedback, etc. & it's such a shame how few have played it relative to other indie games. it's such a groundbreaking set of systems & is upstream of basically every narrative TTRPG since it released. you GOTTA know it.

A Rascal sister site has launched: @roguesite.bsky.social Former-Polygon writers have gotten together to launch a worker-owned video game journalism outlet (with a little rascally help). If you mourned the loss of one site, celebrate the birth of another, and support the people making it happen.

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO 🔥

Alright, my dearies. Here we go. Join us for the ride? www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum...

*my longest and LOUDEST yeah boi ever*

look man we all think it but you're not supposed to say it

“In this framework, a parent has rights, but a child is property.” Yes, and therein lies a huge problem in our society. Children need their own bill of rights. Excellent article!

Build it

Paste Games is now Endless Mode. I’m the Tabletop Columnist, and I’m writing weekly about analog games. Splitting my time between big corpo stuff and the weirdest indie stuff you’ve ever seen, so make sure you send me your DIY goblin games.

hey remember when a rich ceo died then when they caught the suspect they made a circus of it like they found osama bin laden and charged him with terrorism but less than weeks ago two democrat lawmakers and their spouses were shot as literal assassination to shift control and everyone already forgot

They used to have to fabricate or deliberately misinterpret intelligence to give the veneer of legitimacy to these actions. They don't even think you're worth that anymore.

Max’s The Pitt is proving that the network production model still works—with 15-episode seasons, weekly primetime drops, and a lean $5 million per episode budget. Shot in LA on the Warner Bros. lot with 2nd unit in Pittsburgh, it’s a compelling blueprint, no? stagerunner.net/how-the-pitt...

I am imploring you to see this escalation of criminalization against personal protective equipment for the immense threat that it is, especially for mutual aid participants, especially for chronically ill & disabled folks (not mutually exclusive). How can you help? Normalize masks, wear respirators.

Move to hold the agents who assaulted a sitting senator in contempt of Congress. Call for articles of impeachment against Noem. Stop working on crypto legislation. Demonstrate the stakes of what is happening in LA with your actions.

More straight up illegality by ICE. This is crime.

What is the city but the people?

Your group! YOUR GROUP, everybody!

I think underrated how policy design affects popular understanding. low-info, low-trust voters are a lot more likely to hear about loudly obvious stuff like stimmie checks and eviction bans

Fourteen Thousand. The long campaign to dehumanize Palestinians is, fundamentally, about this. To provide cover for the annihilation of a people and their culture, from the youngest to the oldest, to shrugs from the most powerful nations in the world.

it would be funny to have 7.7k followers by the time we get to the game announcement, wouldn't it

“How Does Paris Stay Paris? By Pouring Billions Into Public Housing.” “1/4 of residents in the French capital live in government-owned housing, part of an aggressive plan to keep lower-income Parisians— & their businesses— in the city.” Paris innovation isn’t just about people-places & bike-lanes.

They should do the honorable thing

There is no credible progressive argument against building a ton of new homes at all income levels. Opposing making it easier to build new homes isn’t progressive. It’s super conservative & an argument for a permanent shortage & permanent high rents.

Masked men without identification abducting members of the population and throwing them into unmarked vans for non crimes This is fascism in practice and deed.

Art of the deal!

italians are about to invent a form of corruption so lucrative it will destroy the global economy

There is no podcast news that could make me more excited than "Austin Walker is hosting a new show about games"

Hi. It’s trans day of visibility. I’m trans. Good talk.

the cult of the individual will kill us all

This piece by @ryanlcooper.com is a really clear statement of how oligarchs have seized power in America and the inherent threat to political order and potentially human civilization that concentrated wealth poses. Confiscatory taxation of billionaires is as necessary as national defense.

love 2 live in the laboratory of democracy

Sixteen days have passed and despite filing complaints, Google continues to serve up this slop description that claims we've published "AI-generated stories." We've done nothing of the sort. In fact, we've been extremely vocal about our stance on "AI." NEVER IN OUR PAGES.

It’s not the biggest EO, and unlike some it won’t kill or imprison people, and yet in its explicit appeal to white supremacy, and noting thr unease I feel now writing that publicly, I find this one of the most chilling. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

this is murder.

I really want to stress that it is not possible to teach about antisemitism without also teaching about, say, racism and xenophobia.
