years ago I was going thru a tough time and Lily’s Garden was part of how I coped. what I’m saying is it’s important for my mental health to hire @antlervel.vet to write dialogue DLC for Hades 2 and you can bet I will run down every branch of that narrative tree @supergiantgames.bsky.social

tried out a neon effect in a colouring book, it’s fun!

hades 2: is athena a mean girl? i’m not done this arc yet but goddess of wisdom what is going ON here lol

Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue. I’ll have more to say tomorrow. I’m safe. They also didn’t pay cover 🖕

looked up schedule details for an upcoming event and saw a new flavour of Not Logged In, Cannot See (cc: @jennschiffer.com) browser version of a 3-img IG post only shows the 3rd image, and zero of the post caption. no “click to expand” — just no text. after the “view in IG?” prompt first of course

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

There's a "is anyone even reading this" sort of honesty you get in the software update release notes from a project that's been around for a long time.

NEW: The Chinese-language messages that accused non-ABC Vancouver councillors didn't start with Lenny Zhou, who has since apologized for them. They started with the mayor.

ABC Vancouver has ruled that Pete Fry's motion saying that Vancouver opposes ICE agents in Vancouver and asking Ottawa to reject deployment during the World Cup is invalid and cannot be voted on. They say it's because they have assurances from the US that they won't be sending ICE agents.

reached a new phase of burnout! normally I’m always moving, even small. (dancers can’t sit still) this week my body still responded to movement signals, but not as much. my hands let a bowl slip out of them. my feet shuffled. I stumbled. concentrating just to walk. bizarre experience

but if you just want to do some mindless play (or mindful - it’s my birthday but it’s your life) take a little break and just make some pixel art make8bitart.com

new candles, new bug report 🪻🌲🪲✍️ bugsrock.online/blog/februar...

we’re all planning on reduced forethought capacity (I can plan about two days ahead lately) and so for an interesting new sensation, you might “enjoy” reading perspective from one year ago ca.news.yahoo.com/ominous-dona...

look, I love my state and its resistance to fascism, but I also know what a beach should be like. #webcomics

so conflicted to know the big picture and still be here bawling with relief. we become haunted whether we want to or not.

they have infinity dollars and like 20k guys stealing children. severe trauma. teargassing toddlers. the cruelty is the point

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

late-night reminder to get involved in some way and it even counts if you do something small like buying snacks or hand warmers or making cookies take care of your community, bit by bit. it all adds up.

For proof, a friend who sat in on that interaction thought it was so batshit he had this made for me

TIL Scott Adams decorated his man cave like a college dorm in his garage with traffic cones and a decorative air compressor

not the same thing but the street dance community absolutely will not drop Chris Brown. loved Kendrick, but didn’t drop Drake. I doubt it will drop Nicki Minaj. you can be in class learning choreo for 30-40min before the instructor first plays the song and, welp

I just want people outside of Minneapolis to watch this and imagine listening to that noise over you literally all the time

my therapist recommended the book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski & Amelia Nagoski after experiencing stress, YOU MUST DO SOMETHING to tell your body that it is safe, otherwise you’re still soaked in stress juice (sorry for weird alt text on a columned table)

Gotta remind yourself not to cry when you see the kid's signs. It's negative -25°F and tears are dangerous. "LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE!" "ICE GIT OUT YA FUCKIN DUMBIES 😡"

The funniest shit is that I feel like the huge turnout downtown is almost because of the cold not in spite of it. The fact that it’s -10 degrees out led to just more defiance, like thousands out there saying, it isn’t even that bad out.

This is the real story.

remember when video game journalists learned that women did not want to talk to them after they proved untrustworthy during GG

I was already broken and then the Liam Ramos thing broke me again. But the other form of broken is to think it’s fine and at least I’m not broken like that.

KIDNAPPED. You don’t arrest a child. The word you’re looking for is KIDNAPPED.

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

Please help us bring Liam Adrian Cornejo Ramos (he’s only 5 years of age and is currently in pre-K. Yesterday, he and his father were kidnapped by ICE. This will help the family with legal services to help reunite Liam and his dad with their family. gofund.me/be8a1b2ab

Re ICE actrocities in MN, I’ve already said that lately I feel consistently angrier than I’ve ever felt in my long life. But I also feel absolutely heartsick. That poor little 5-year old baby kidnapped, imagining how scared he was… I know many of you feel the same. Love and solidarity to you.

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

ICE are abducting 5 year olds, using them as bait to get to their family, and shipping them to a Texas concentration camp all in a single day. We need a Nuremberg for everyone involved. Abolish ICE isn't enough.

fwiw this is the kind of stuff that is going to get us through, not playing rambo

damn what is wrong with me, i am having the hardest time concentrating on work, i lament as i compulsively refresh live feeds of unspeakable horrors

sorry what Monday is already unhinged and it’s not even 7:30

I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

learn what

im sorry i know it sucks but journalists are going to have to be willing to get fired for simply describing what they see happening with their own eyes, you look like fucking morons

if any of y’all are stuck working during the holidays, you have my support. I’ve been lucky to be at orgs with holiday shutdowns (except oncalls) and it’s just the right thing to do. productivity dips this week anyway. it’s so cheap to just cut these days and an easy culture win. advocate for 2026.

I can see now how much of bujo culture is about the regulated practice and joy of art & self-reflection. there are so many complex layouts / inspo / trackers that I find fundamentally difficult to read, but I now see that’s missing some of the point. 🎨 www.reddit.com/r/bulletjour...

for some reason that Coates / Klein moment about immediacy / “winning” embedded itself deeply in my cortex and I know it’s not logical but I feel all these same neurons firing

I volunteered for a bunch of the logistics this year and it was a big project that went pretty good. somehow 15lbs cooked in ~2 hrs. convection went crazy on that bird. made soup today after gifts. took a couple hours of being home before I felt like, oh, we did it. these are the last of the dishes

listened to a BTB pod on Kent H who befriended a pedophile. the structure of his excuses has stuck with me. he spoke about his friend’s actions in a legal sense, “so it was okay” I have this childhood sense of knowing that “legal age” was important to a lot of men

It’s that time of the year where Home Alone is going to be on tv a bunch. As relatives go “they should have had a battery powered alarm” and make other judgments on the family’s lack of responsibility in forgetting their kid, get a better source to learn from what happened. ferd.ca/home-alone-a...
