Here’s the part we all want to know which is behind the paywall. You’re welcome.

Sick. Awesome. Thanks for that. Really preferred this to funding a Blade game by the Dishonored people or people at Obsidian having jobs.

I had a post blow up by accident, and when I tell you some of y'all on this app are very annoying

The game industry is so fucking back

Once again, I know no one pays attention to Florida, but multiple county commissioners of Florida's richest, whitest county were just arrested for sending out fraudulent voter guides to endorse more radical GOP candidates in 2024. Those charged were appointed and endorsed by DeSantis.

Not going to lie, that's a sick burn if I've ever seen one

Celebrating Independance Day the way George Washington intended by watching Gintama and eating California Pizza Kitchen

It's time

It's USA Independence Day so prepare for Americans to be annoying on social media for a minute

Earlier this week, Intelligencer ran a piece called "ICE Won." We definitely don't agree with the title, but its gist—that the normalization of federal police violence is accelerating—is proving accurate. ICE arrests roughly doubled in Chicagoland in June over May. Some more thoughts on that:

Hell yeah we are

I can't imagine what it's like living in LA for most people when it comes to movies and shows filmed on location in the city, but not set there. I've only been there 3 times and I already go "that's not the woods of Appalacia, that's Griffith Park." Like can you even pay attention anymore?

People who don't like Skypiea are weird because how do you not love the team-ups of Robin, Nami and Zoro / Sanji, Luffy and Usopp??

It seems somewhat bad that the richest man in the world can use his money to bankrupt individuals or organizations -- including officials who are tasked with holding him accountable -- that accurately point out that his actions plausibly facilitated the deaths of millions.

My nine year old asked for a Rosetta Stone cake for his birthday

It saddens me how esp.'ly Gen Z have this devil-may-care attitude towards privacy & survellience where they see Persona (not that one) as the DoorDash vendor and they're like, 'Whatever, the gov.'t already owns everything.' 🙄

relevant to an email i just got

The arrests for "vandalism" around the reflecting pool are in principle the same thing as Russian soldiers being forced to record false captures/flag-raisings on the frontlines– the deforming of the state into a tyrant-soothing bouncy infant chair

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Étude de femme, 1839 by Aimée Brune-Pagès

I'm not a pro-ban person when it comes to substances but it remains beyond insane that 7-OH is being marketed and sold like it's 5 Hour Energy. This shit is not normal "kratom" and it's not an energy supplement. It's fucking Oxy and if you get addicted to it you will get dopesick.

made a janky little finger-typed graphic about this using my human words and art made by a real person

I’m not anxious about my writing accidentally sounding like AI because I write the way I need to, and the way I need to write is the most human thing I have. When AI starts to sound like me it will be because it tried to steal me, and it can only steal something that sounds like me

Happy Pride Month, everyone!

David Cage type of quote

"Travis only got Sephiroth because of Matt Mercer" Yeah not like Travis Willingham is an old guard, highly decorated voice actor with multiple world famous roles or anything...

Off for the Sabbot, 1927 by William Mortensen

This DOES raise concerns though that people posting their art when they just aren't good at it yet will be accused of using AI, when a lot of times the accusers really can't tell an AI image from a photo of their own mother. And that is very scary and disheartening to think about

A cosplay photographer on tik tok was complaining that he gets accused of using AI and it's so disheartening, but when I went to look at his progress videos, he uses AI stock images in his edits and often changes the entire cosplayer into an uncannily odd shape for a human. So like yeah, dude.

Nu dans un intérieur, 1935 by Pierre Bonnard

i'm pretty convinced that every brain dead and liar rightwinger is talking about the LA mayor race being rigged so they have "justification" to rig or cancel the 2026 or 2028 elections

45 people in Idaho getting dysentery from drinking raw milk is the most Idaho news headline I've ever heard

Either JT doesn't ever go outside and doesn't know the sky actually does this, or he legitimately believes even Mother Nature is bi/trans, and I feel like it's the latter

would howl rip one like this or like this

these are getting weird

Drove past my new house by accident 3 days after we moved in :)

I keep thinking about like "The Backrooms," and "I Saw the TV Glow," and "Skinemarink," and wondering why so many viewers were terrified of those movies while so many were not at all afraid or even comforted by them in some ways.

Of course my fuckass alma mater that's famous for sucking when it comes to it's allumni (University of North Florida) just never sent my transcripts to ASU. I hate having to call student employees to ask why the the people above them didn't do their job.

ad astra; to the stars 💫 #projecthailmary
