CaDA (non Lego) block sets. This one is the canteen. I think there are 8-9 of them and they all looked amazing during the holidays so we picked one up after they went on sale.

also the gofundme is still going on and the visa renewal is coming up the first of february but after trump's visa bans of thai people, it is unclear if we will be subject to retaliatory actions. www.gofundme.com/f/save-our-t...

honestly still pretty happy with this game even tho i made it 6 years ago. cleaned up some terms (bonuses/weaknesses instead of perks/flaws? what was 2020 calvin thinking) and formatting, but otherwise it's still pretty solid! Check it out if you want to roleplay as scifi marines with your friends

Language is important. Those who the elites and people in positions of power dislike will always paint the ‘other’ as “aggressive”, “confrontational” and “against society” See how minorities are painted by elites and their media platforms for examples. They’re now using it against more people!

Nothing less than criminal charges and a ban on the app would be sufficient. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/b...

Video game: "There's no time! You need to save the world NOW!" Gamers: "What do you mean you didn't stop to explore the world and do side quests? You played the game wrong."

Taps the sign.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

1. In a major new federal rule, Trump is attempting to attach billions in international aid to recipients agreeing to impose anti-trans restrictions. This includes social transition "at any age," attempting to export transphobia globally. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Living through this sucks ass, but the future kids are gonna have some wild museum exhibits. Also, we gonna talk bout the fact that it took National Guard approximately 0.2 seconds to aid ICE or we just gonna...ignore that? (National Guard are the guys in bright yellow jackets)

hey guys, just to confirm this is my fundraiser. i didn't want to ask for help, but i do need it. my cancer is back. i am going through a lobectomy next week, the same surgery Walter White undergoes. i can't express how grateful i am. thank you so much everyone. www.gofundme.com/f/support-ge...

thinking about that post that says “answering DMs requires a spell slot while posting is a cantrip you can use repeatedly”

this may legitimately be the first time I've seen someone using their 2nd amendment right in the way they all pretended they needed their 2nd amendment rights for

Discount Goebbels has unilaterally withdrawn the US from NATO, I guess.

just so we're clear on how stupid and unnecessary this is: the entire state of Maine is w/in 100 miles of an international border, meaning CPB already has jurisdiction to do whatever the fuck it wants anytime it wants this is just about fucking w/ a tiny blue city & a gov who protected trans kids

our former mayor announced a cryptocurrency $NYC Coin to "fight anti-semitism", and literally a few hours later, he stole the between $2.5 mil to $3.5 mil in other crypto that was backing it.

Three words “I misunderstood you.” You can use this when it becomes clear that you misunderstood someone’s post, rather than snarking at them like an asshole

meanwhile, brits kick off monday repeating the same threats as last week

eyyy book i worked on is the #1 seller on drive thru rpg!! i still kind of can't believe i wrote for twilight imperium. writing fleet combat and designing ships/ground units for one of my favorite settings was kind of unreal AND IF YOU BUY LOTS OF IT WE WILL GET TO MAKE A THIRD BOOK

Same here, Porco. Same here.

So Wagotabi, a language learning game I gave myself for Christmas, has fully cracked to code on me the same way DuoLingo did: by making this shit competitive. My favorite minigame is "Saeki's Kanji," where you match kanji/hiragana/images/definitions. Determined to get in the top 500 globally.

This is also why authoritarians in both parties are so intent on censoring social media. For decades cops murdered with impunity and the press repeated their lies as fact. Now everyone can document abuse and instantly share it with millions of people. That makes those in power scared. Good.

All republicans voted down a subpoena of all records and footage related to the murder of Renee Good by ICE agent

Never mind that this isn’t the definition of doxing in the first place, but you can’t dox a federal employee. If you’re a public servant, your identity isn’t “hidden.” It’s on public records. People can access those public records.

"I didn’t want the mayor to blow up the city like he mentioned many times; I just wanted him to fix the old bowling alley like he promised in passing once. Anyone saying I’m partially responsible for the explosions is just a sign that they have no argument." #McSweeneysTop25of2025

this bears repeating: Grok is bad because it's creating NONCONSENSUAL sexual images of real people. Not because sex is icky and should be scrubbed from the Internet. The distinction is crucial at a moment when dangerous censorship legislation is bipartisan and widely misunderstood

So far, we've raised $200 toward it. If 24 people give $50 each, they can get the car before someone else does, and her dad can fix it for her so she can drive the kids around safely. 24 ppl, $50 each. PayPal here: @VanessaSillas56.

Second, I really want to get this one taken care of. It's a local widow and mama of 2. Collectively, we got her into a new place so they're not unhoused in the middle of winter. But her car's dead. Her dad's found one he can fix, for $1,400.

I will take a movie or tv show, thank you www.them.us/story/usa-ca...

btw for those who don't know why Americans with chronic illness got like 75% more stressed on Jan 1st, it is not just because all the insurance rates blew up. On 1/1, deductibles reset. which means you have to spend some amount of money (up to $10k sometimes) before your insurance COVERS ANYTHING

bro if anyone falls for this fuckin grift from Kellyanne Conway’s ex husband I’m going to lose it

Again, this wasn’t just a predictable outcome, this is what the software was designed for. And it’s pretty exciting that basically every politician and major news outlet are still just ignoring this and posting away on the platform.

The Threads vibe is so hard to describe. It’s dire and dumb and full of engagement farming but then you also get accidental perfect posts like this.

Acclaimed banjoist Béla Fleck is pulling out of three Kennedy Center concerts, joining a growing number of musicians canceling events after the board voted to add President Trump’s name to the venue.

PORTFOLIO TIPS FOR ILLUSTRATORS I am an art director who has probably seen close to 1000 portfolios, many great, but many...not 😔 This is a doc I wrote featuring tips and tricks for how to make a better art portfolio site. Feel free to share with anyone who may find this useful <3 #art

I honestly don’t think there’s a single figure in American history who has fundamentally shifted the way I understand the world I live in more radically than Fred Hampton. once you know the story you can’t un-know it and you see it repeated everywhere

Children are dying because folks won't get flu vaccinations and RFK Jr is discouraging them and has defunded research into viruses www.boston25news.com/news/local/4...

On one hand I’m worried about the snacks cabinet and on the other hand I’m worried about WW3. I don’t even have hands

Thanks, #ThirstyNerds! We’re about 1/3 to where we need to be this week and we appreciate all the love and hype! 🍵❤️ Let’s keep it up!

Whenever folks talk about keeping politics out of spaces, my default interpretation of that is that it means I am not welcome. I am inherently political. My race. My sexuality. My gender identity. My socioeconomic history. My vocation. All of it is political. If I tuck those away, what's left of me?

People harassed Lia Smith's parents after she completed suicide. The level of hate and dehumanization of trans people is obscene.

That's exactly the playbook they ran with trans people. Getting fans folks fired from jobs, doxing, harassment, death threats etc. There's an entire cottage industry of right wing influencers who do this for clout and money.

I think the most scandalous thing about Dr Pepper is that it isn't even a real doctor. It's actually a carbonated drink that has never even had any medical training. It also doesn't hold any advanced degrees at all, let alone a PhD. It's an unqualified can of lies.
