All the way to Pannir’s execution, Singapore chose callous and inhumane bureaucracy. @kirstenhan.com writes of a remarkable young man with so much potential and love, and a family who loved him fiercely in return. Wishing them all the strength in the world now www.wethecitizens.net/goodbye-pann...

Microsoft remains a key technological pillar is Israel’s apartheid regime and its genocide in Gaza. It continues to equip the Israeli military, government and prisons with the technology used to commit war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide.

Tired of sending your money to studios, networks, and streaming giants who cave to fascists? Watch and support TTRPG actual plays, especially those creating stories that move, comfort, and inspire us

Oh. My. God. Profoundly twisted framing from @nytimes.com The casual reader of this hed and subhed would have exactly zero inkling that this is likely corrupt or even illegal or unconstitutional. Euphemistic to the point of absurdity.

Hell yeah, get Pale Dotted! Thanks @devindecibel.bsky.social!

Helps to think of the @nytimes.com as owned by something like the Tessier-Ashpools of William Gibson's NEUROMANCER.

I got to play a fantastic one-shot of this as the duel-obsessed golden retriever boyfriend of a definitely not evil socialite. We won several dance battles. That is to say - PLAY ITTTT

slightly polished up a quick doodle I drew in the friends at the table fan discord based off of people's riffing: Kalvin and Thobbesbe #friendsatthetable #CalvinandHobbes #pixelart #palisade

Just finished @friends-table.bsky.social season 1 of Media Club Plus and the whole 2011 Hunter x Hunter run they covered. What a wild show and delightful commentary on it! I never would have experienced the wonders of gorilla dodgeball, world-historical shogi analogues, or murder clowns without them

truly, tonight is a banner night for the “a better world is always possible” posters. secondly, and more importantly, it is one for the Haters

Happy for ya, NYC!

The Fleggs from @friends-table.bsky.social’s newest season: Perpetua #friendsatthetable #Perpetua

alright, i'm asking in seriousness. do folks know what lynching is? do folks know the *legal* issues with lynching? it's actually more complicated than you think, and i'm not a legal scholar so i don't want to step out of my lane--BUT I'VE READ BOOKS.

Same energy

I would say that a bunch of tariffs that haven’t taken effect and that the president doesn’t seem to actually have the courage to impose actually matter not at all and human life is very important. This does seem to put me completely at odds with the Democratic Party.

Really enjoyed the discussion on the first episode of the new @friends-table.bsky.social show Side Story! Check it out! sidestory.show/

Some "Russian Warship" vibes here from a tiny fed'l agency. via Brett Murphy: The African Development Foundation (budget ~$40 million) is putting up a fight and denying DOGE + Pete Marocco — the State Dept official dismantling USAID — access to their building:

the only thing i'm looking forward to more than andor season 2 is a more civilized age coverage of andor season 2

not gay as in happy, queer as in fuck you

no the fuck we are NOT making “LGBQ+” a thing and if I see any of you motherfuckers using that acronym it’s on sight Marsha P. Johnson did not smash in the windshield of a police car for this

Welp, furloughed thanks to the foreign aid freeze. So much for a decade working for the common good! This administration truly is the lowest scum.

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP. It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Plainly unlawful and unconstitutional. No one can issue such an order; the President and his officers cannot simply ignore an entity created and funded by Congress.

Colleen Shogan is the living proof that "obeying in advance" gets you absolutely nowhere

i really hope democrats are listening to @jvl.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/how-to-win...

This is not accidental. They can't keep spreading conspiracy theories about what USAID was doing (at least not as easily) if the genuine records are right there, publicly available for everyone to read. There have to be consequences for this down the road. People need to pay for actions like these.

All of this. I would just add that the US promotion of rights abroad (to counter the Soviets) led to the expansion of Civil Rights at home. Signaling to dictators that the US does not care about human rights empowers Trump to brutalize his domestic enemies. Excuse my horrors and I’ll ignore yours.

unions: good union tactics: good more, different historically effective union tactics to incite change: 😌

Trans group Fajar Sikka support the community through traditional textile promotion, small business funding, networking, and advocacy through actions like providing aid during natural disaster/pandemic. It was founded in 2018 by Hendrika Mayora, the first trans government official in Indonesia. 2/2

If you missed it: Konstantinos and I are gearing up to finally bring EX NOVO to print! We don't have a hard timetable for when the Kickstarter launches but you might want to sign up now to be there, once it does!

The NYT asked me to write an op-ed on Musk and the Treasury and then took a pass. I hope it will still get read.
