Weapon Added To Each Thanksgiving Place Setting In Preparation For Blowout Family Argument

Massively upsetting thread for all to enjoy

Evangelicals have a long history of falling in line when presented with charlatans and manipulative, vainglorious narcissists masquerading as saviors.

Then as now ...

Decided to do some quick-ish grading of the Intro to CIS class, which is pretty quick to grade. Counter to my usual status at this time, I'm on top of grading all those sections. Still have so much to grade for my Business Communication class and my own work, but I'm on top of at least one class.

In the richest city in the richest country on the planet, the thing we can’t afford is to forget those who are left hungry.

Today is the day! Make some phone calls to Visa and Mastercard if youre able to and keep it going as much as you can muster until monday!

A bit too on the nose for thanksgiving

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important. We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

My hands on your face you beautiful child listen to me there is no sale worth going shopping on Thanksgiving. Do not support Black Thursday. Do not tell these companies to keep their employees away from their families on a holiday that should be about spending time with family.

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.

Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:

My take on Christmas was heavily informed by my dad, who threw medieval, Victorian, and Biblical practices in a bag and shook 'em up, in the public sphere. When he passed, I inherited Falstaff here, who moved from his studio to mine. Dad had gotten him in trade decades ago, to use in church. 1/

This is HUGE. Hard to overstate the importance to this event to the town and region. The international comics publishing will also take a hit but they have many other ways to promote and sell. The comics festival IS Angoulême.

Addendum to this excellent post: You do not have to be good at something to have fun. Don't hold yourself up to hyperrealistic or professional or your favourite ___ standards. You're new and learning! Be YOU, not a copy of someone else.

On this day in 1995, an article published by a Princeton University professor entitled "The Coming of the Super-Predators" wrongly predicted that violence in the U.S. would rise dramatically due to growing "moral poverty" by poor and minority youth.

I bought the back mat purely on rahaeli's rec and it came yesterday. I was on it for 30 minutes and it made a ton of the knots in my back better and decompressed my spine. I haven't been this pain-free in years. We have two friends in town. They both tried it and where like yo wtf is this sorcery.

I highly recommend this author and novel (one is the North American cover, the other is the UK cover). It’s fantastic, excellent read, 🤖🐬🦿🇳🇬🇺🇸.

There's a thread on the forums Sara started that could really use some more responses as well (encouraging anyone that sees this to post!), here's the link: forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/thread...

art isn’t always going to make you comfortable. it’s treating art in this puritan sense where it has to please you, then it’s just a consumerist product… and we have these storefronts (payment processors too) constantly dictating what counts as art. in hypocritical ways. it’s grim really.

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend

The only thing actually keeping poor people from making art is that those who do make art are continuously exploited and stolen from. So they have to work overtime in timesuck jobs to make ends meet and don't get the opportunity to do the art they are capable of. It's so backwards.

Drawing well is a skill that's easy to prove and instantly commands respect because universally, every human has drawn something at some point and knows how difficult it is. Growing up fat/unpopular I could still earn some respect because I could draw well. Ai assholes want that without the work.

Our Black Friday sale will be on everything. EVERYTHING. New books, old books. anthologies, GNs. 50% off, ACROSS THE BOARD. Get that holiday shopping done in one, support artists and weird media!

gone, and also forgotten

Group project files submitted. Now to my grading and my individual assignments. Busy next couple of days.

This is an excellent summary of how "the author getting paid" works for traditional publishing! To which I'll add: it is super common for books (especially genre fiction) to not "earn out" the advance, so a lot of writers learn to not count on royalty money ever happening.

#SaveSpeech The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

I do not like how my voice sounds in recordings.
