This is so well said these are the words I’m looking for and I believe he’s quite kind about it actually..

Just a reminder: you can mourn the senseless loss of a life while also celebrating the loss of a source of corruption. I said what I said.

It's the King's birthday. Jack Kirby. The Avengers. Fantastic Four. The New Gods. More. Infinite worlds. And remember, he was a Nazi killer. He beat them senseless in NY, and later shot them in Europe. Here's a sketch from Jack of his gal on some stationary he pulled from a dead Nazi. All hail.

TTRPG fan? Savage Worlds player (or curious about Savage Worlds)? Attending ComiCon Erie in a few weeks??? I'll be running a few sessions of the Savage World of Flash Gordon and you could join me at the table! More info to come, so watch this "OUTER" space!!! ⚡🚀🎲 #SavageWorlds #TTRPG #ComiconErie

Wow...this art is very cool.

I'm doing a thing for charity! Catch me playing Transformers on Sunday. All funds to help those affected by the Texas Floods.

Here's our schedule for the #TexasFlood #Charity #TTRPG games we're holding this weekend! Saturday, Sunday, and Monday we have a wide variety of games with six awesome tables! Let's roll some dice and do some good! Check out the replies for details about our games and GMs!

Sunday evening, Mr. Ray brings it home with their game of Transformers: A Beacon of Hope. Autobots! They say you can never go home again, but it's been millions of years. Surely, if ever there was a time, it's now.

My brother and I almost drowned as children because everyone in the pool thought we were just really good swimmers. The only reason we survived is because someone happened to swim by and we grabbed them. It is so important that people learn what drowning ACTUALLY looks like.

Time to re-up this little ditty about how to make your Venmo more private. Remember that digital security is not just about protecting yourself, it makes your entire community safer

I believe that everyone should be allowed the space and time and opportunity to become who they truly are. I am sad that some people, given the space and time and opportunity, choose to be assholes.

For those failing to get the "copilot" AI off their Microsoft Word -- If you proceed with canceling Microsoft Office, you'll get a "wait wait don't go!" screen where they suddenly offer you "Microsoft 365 Personal Classic" -- which *doesn't include AI* and is actually cheaper! Weird workaround.

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment? It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.

This book looks very cool!!

I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide (COLOR TASTE TEXTURE). I was tired seeing people without aversions trying to trick or force the averse to eat new foods, so I wrote a book about how to work with food to meet individual sensory needs.

No kings.

I'll read it again.. for the assholes in the back of my brain

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity. TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

I use this

I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe. She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today. RIP Elisa.

So so good.

Being cruel to trans people doesn’t change their status, but is most definitely lowers yours.

The revolution may need violence. That is a possibility. But it also needs healers. It needs gardeners. It needs leaders. It needs managers. It needs cooks. It needs farmers. It needs tailors. It needs educators. It needs journalists. It needs artists. It needs builders. You are not useless.

Hey we're looking for an artist to pick up a bit of HELLPIERCERS work. It's a fairly involved, double page spread piece depicting a bunch of fucked up demons. Preferably looking for someone who can nail a kind of dark, broody, mysterious atmosphere but style is variable. Check the attached for Vibes

I’d like to — on behalf of Fat Mike — co-opt his message for #TTRPGs. If you’re a #TTRPG Trump supporter, fuck you. Get the fuck out of our scene. Warm regards, Me

Get on these great games for a great cause!

This. A thousand times this.

Just to be clear for new followers: Trans rights are human rights. People can never be "illegal". Israel is committing genocide. The US is stolen land. Everyone deserves healthcare, bodily autonomy, education, housing and food. Black lives matter. ACAB.

I see some people are demanding we watch the inauguration and I'm all, motherfucker, I didn't watch his first one and spent four years actively avoiding the sound of his voice, what makes you think I'm going to do any different this time around

I like Charlie’s work but this article is a misstep. We indies shout and shout but outlets won’t cover us (nb-Polygon has been kinder than most and has covered us before but usually ignores our press). Blaming indies for ‘wringing their hands’ is pretty tone deaf. www.polygon.com/opinion/5067...

Everything stated in this post is a provable fact. You are entitled to your own opinion. You are not entitled to your own facts. Looking at YOU, 2020 election-deniers.

1. This is a good reminder that even sophisticated users of social media (including you! Including me!) are susceptible to planned mis-and-dis-information campaigns, even ones not (directly) about politics; 2. Parasocial relationships are inherently fictional. There is always so much we don't know.
