Anyone have more of these like aggressive artist commission memes?

Remember when digital was cheaper than physical because it cost less to make? Then they made them the same price anyway. Now suddenly physical is “too expensive” to keep making. You didn’t solve a cost problem, you engineered one. This is just an excuse to kill ownership by PlayStation.

How is it the power grid couldn’t handle electric cars but it will be fine with all these data centers?

let me burn some sage around my bank account bc that comeback was unreal

Here’s part one of my song! Thank you to @quinnntastic.bsky.social for writing this song with me and @transplanarrpg.bsky.social for supporting me in this!

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

I've been thinking a lot about the death of friendship lately. "Somewhere between “Let’s catch up soon” and “Sorry, life has been hectic”, adult friendship became one of the most emotionally significant and least discussed losses of modern life." timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/civil-...

I mean I know it’s normal now. But government officials lying and saying the elections have all been rigged is functionally treason against the constitutional system and should be punished as such.

Kickstarter officially banning adult content now. Knew this was coming, but it still sucks to have yet another part of the internet that I've been explicitly evicted from. Digital gentrification is exhausting.

Warning! You might see posts in the wild claiming "Hogwarts Legacy is free right now!" but this is malware, if you try and run it, it'll install Hogwarts Legacy on your PC.

The amount of misinformation we’re getting about an incident that just occurred in front of 1,500 news reporters is truly the metaphor of our generation.

Endless cycle

people "have money", in that they have income. but the number of people seriously burdened by their rent is the highest it's ever been. the cost of living is so much worse than it was a decade or two ago. I know multiple people making the most money they've ever made who are barely hanging on.

My hottest “I have no data to back this up” take is that phones aren’t making young people less happy. What’s making them less happy is living in a world where everyone is having their reality defined by recommendation algorithms that can only care about whether something keeps you watching.

Speaking of Threads, this one got me in the feels.

The fact that this went out and Congress hasn’t immediately convened for an emergency session show just how much trouble we’re in.

There’s an Iran war cost tracker. We are spending $1 billion a day. We are up to $37 billion. This is money that could be going toward health care, education, the VA, feeding children, fixing roads, libraries, cancer research, medicine, etc. iran-cost-ticker.com

Armoured Mice take down a Carrion Range Trawler in the snow. Work continues on third Gwelf book, The Haunted Garden. More soon. Tally Ho!

Been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately, so it feels like a good time to share my painting "Steady".

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

how ironic to see the state protect two people who sought to strip the state while working under the direction of elon musk, who has made it impossible to seek recourse when people get death threats and harassment on twitter

Some Tech CEO every day: "You don't get to own things now. I own your refrigerator. If you say mean things about me I will turn off your fridge and spoil all your dairy and eggs and meat. If you don't like it you go to jail." People in my mentions: "Lmao are you REALLY a luddite? smh"

goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024

Guys I won the game

Tried to upload to Patreon a little while back but it refused. 😔 Watched dumb Stranger Things finale. Couldn't stop cackling "wiki-wiki-wild" because of giant wasteland spider. Synced one beat to the action and watched IN HORROR as it continued to match PERFECTLY. I AM COMPELLED TO SHARE THE PAIN.

guys that has been happening *on video* for weeks and weeks. if the nyt actually cared, they'd look at the footage. there's *so much of it*.

Not a new observation but Blue No Matter Who is Qanon for democrats

It's important work.

Just discovered yet another severe harm ICE is causing: huge cutbacks at our hospitals, because patients won't come in, because ICE hangs out inside the building or by the doors and abducts people. Crushing our medical system alongside our schools and our businesses.

The hobbit has the nuclear codes. It can activate all the other nuclear codes in the world together. The codes are also telling the hobbit they are the best actually, everyone else sucks and Gandalf is clearly jealous

A few hours later 🌸🏵🌸

Imagine a President bulldozing 1/3 of our Historic White House pocketing $300 million and that doesn’t even crack the top 100 most destructive, vile, disgusting things he’s done, yet here we are

honestly the best thing about the (potential, don't be complacent) Discord exodus is indie developers actually updating their Steam and Kickstarter updates instead of keeping it in their Discords. It's not hard, we don't need big news every month, just a "hey we're still working" ping monthly, cool?

"why do you have so many ttrpg books" Well, I was born with a condition that prevents my body from producing its own ttrpg book so I have to outsource to maintain proper balance.
