TIL that lithographic-quality stone — once quarried only in a few places in Germany —was also quarried in Iowa, from a deposit that extends into Minnesota. However when metal plate printing replaced lithographic printing 100 years ago that quarry closed. oldasadam.com/wp-content/u...

hello

new fiction from Hannah Smart in Keep Planning today, a fairly long short story about climbing a mountain which is often funny, sometimes moving, and in all respects a delight to read simply for the clear, confident precision of its construction. check it out below

To be clear, WoW always lent itself to a white supremacist fantasy that the Blood Elves arrived and the land was empty and unused except for some ruins so the Amani are wrong to care about the land. Which is what Amerindians and Africans were told by European colonialists.

The lore had allowed Blood Elves to live out a colonial myth within the narrative in the version promoted by colonial powers. The lore is formalizing in-game what's been canon since Chronicles, and rejecting the colonial fantasy (terra nullius) for a colonial reality (genocide)

Love how much it looks like a sonic the hedgehog character

we are kind of witnessing a turn towards pedophilia as regulated more by sumptuary principles than moral ones. people are already acting like saying ghislaine maxwell is a groomer is the same as saying her suit looks too cheap. like saying trump fucks kids is arguing with his bank statements
