The Gestapo leader who oversees kidnappings promises consequences for exercising your First Amendment rights.

Pokemon...Odyssey? TWO!? How have I never heard of this before? Or the first one even???? Oh I'm not remotely going to be normal about this once I can get my hands on it

I have several Reformed Conservative friends! The key difference between real ones and the types cait describes here is exactly that lack of making excuses and seeking to be told it's "okay" that they used to be awful.

Critical support to Jody

This has such like...Dad Punk energy. Buncha dudes who love to tinker going "we'll make our own music! With cassette decks! And screwdrivers!" Rock on my guys~

Add Toyota to your boycott list. Just get a bike and a bus pass.

I don’t care who it is. Mental health issues do not make someone a bigot and it’s not an excuse for dangerous, harmful, or abusive behavior People have psychotic episodes every day without being a bigot, or engaging in sexually inappropriate and/or abusive behaviors

I am not a knick-knacks and models person, but I would still absolutely put this on a bookshelf~ 😂

Notching a rare win: House passed spending bills with all anti-trans riders removed—no care bans, no school funding threats, nothing. Sarah McBride and Dem appropriators fought for this for months. open.substack.com/pub/aridrenn...

In the interest of accuracy, I should mention that the "5k ticks per season" datum is inaccurate, based on observations of animals in captivity. But what they DO eat is "literally anything else in your yard that wants to bite or poison you." Spiders, scorpions, venomous snakes, rodents, the works!

My D&D multiverse has Artificer's Madness. True Artificers are constantly at risk of becoming more withdrawn into their craft and losing touch with reality...and with things like ethics and morals. Some places have developed meds for it, but a robust social circle is actually the best protection!

May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies. May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism. This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs. Vaccinate your pets please.

Story of my fucking life. I swear like 90% of the times I have ever attempted to assert a boundary, I have gotten blown up at for it.

right, the MAGA moment can very much be understood as "the miserable assholes have figured out how to hack previous norms of assumed good faith and basic human decency to run rough shod over the planet"

Oh that is one of the things a parent can say that will immediately have my hackles up. Like okaaaaay and that matters why? Children do in fact get to be their own people and have their own lives! They are not obligated to follow their parents dreams. Responsibility flows DOWN. Not UP.

Back in like 2012, before I transitioned, a woman I know told me, apropos of nothing and completely unprompted, that she could accept her son being anything when he grew up, except trans. This was a very liberal, progressive woman.

The instant a professional organisation or convention uses “AI” is the moment it shows itself unworthy of prestige or member money. It’s that simple.

This is very applicable to indie game devs. Don't try to make a game for the masses, it's not going to work. Make your own weird game and don't water it down at all. SOMEONE out there is gonna go crazy for it, maybe a lot of someones. People can feel passion, and they react to it.

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.

After accidentally mistaking Don Lemon for RW media & yelling fuck you 😅, Minnesota Man apologizes & explains that he's out in sub-0° bc white supremacy is a white person problem. "This is the logical conclusion of allowing white people to have bigotry & racism for years. We fucked up so bad."

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

😚👌

Governor why are you even talking to that man? He is a wretched hatemonger.

This would be a good time for Hank to amplify the people who have *been* saying we're that country *not* to summarize or talk about them, but to platform them directly

I am forever amused by how little the ADHD brain wants to consider things like...physical limitations. Took a fall yesterday(I'm mostly fine), and caught all my weight on my left hand. Bruised like a discount tomato. Thus holding a controller ain't an option right now! However...

Ladyhawke. Legend. The Last Unicorn. Labyrinth. The Green Knight. A Knight's Tale. Arguably Reign of Fire. The Neverending Story. Excalibur. The Dark Crystal. The Princess Bride. Clash of the Titans. ...those are just off the top of my head

Damn, sure is a good thing we've all agreed to not examine and critique the pop culture we consume in light of the world we live in. Excellent decision, really saves us a lot of discomfort.

my only sappy thing to say about GDQ is that the last however many years have tried their best to convince the world that ppl like me should not exist and sometimes you wonder if we really are on a downfall but GDQ comes around saying trans rights all day all week raising millions and millions

At last night’s candlelight vigil for Renee Nicole Good, Bishop Rob Hirschfeld of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire announced he had asked the clergy of the diocese to get their affairs in order and to make sure they have their wills written ...,

I never thought about comparing Return of the Jedi and Predator but they're both 80s flicks about beating technologically advanced aliens with logs and pointy sticks

Just heard an AI ethicist talk about how important it is that we say ‘MEN are using Grok to undress images of babies, children and women’ not ‘Grok is….’. Grok isn’t responsible for the action, the men enabling & using it for this repulsive purpose are. Small but important bit of linguistic accuracy

Regurgitative AI is now implicated in multiple deaths but still there is no sign of regulation. Meanwhile, governments are working to ban trans people from public life based on imaginary scenarios that haven’t happened. Not even AI could write a situation as stupid as this shit.

They kidnapped the head of a Latin American country, replaced him with an insecure white racist who has spent his entire life arguing that Latinos are subhuman, and made clear that their primary aim is to plunder the country for its resources. If it isn't yet clear, yes, we're the fucking baddies.

This is the funniest thing that's ever happened on Threads.

In an administration full of low points, this is one of the lowest. Our country is an embarrassment.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, could you please establish an official NYC Mayor account on Bluesky and post everything your office is currently posting on X over here? And please remove all city accounts from X, which has become a CSAM creation and distribution site? No money for Musk, ever, please.

A lifetime of paying taxes and it was all spent on wars. Honestly it feels like theft because it should have gone to healthcare, education, infrastructure and the social safety net. It should have gone to improving quality of life for everyone.

For my first newsletter of the new year, I wrote about how the millennial generation has been ravaged by endless wars as Trump threatened to launch military operations against a half dozen countries over the weekend. www.burnsnotice.com/the-generati...

One of the stupidest things about this spheres of influence business is that the three men (Xi, Putin, Trump)who have built this obscene three way deal are all old, with unclear succession mechanisms beneath them, leading nations that are all suffering from population problems. 1/

Dead Space CEO bragging about how he made his employees study real gore to make the necromorphs more realistic is only distinct from "forced his employees to watch snuff porn" in a semantic sense.

Re: games like neo-Tomb Raider and Last of Us, it's concerning the way exaggerated and fantastic kink has been ostracized while respectable, mainstream media has incorporated extremely realistic depictions of violence in a kink way.

it's a massive failure of our society that we have allowed companies to distance themselves from the horrible things said by their AI, which has been created to represent them. if your AI says it, it should be equivalent to a live human person making the same statement, and treated accordingly

OH NO! I FORGOT THAT THE END OF DECEMBER IS WHEN MY BACKBLAZE FILE BACK UP SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE YEAR RENEWS Help me recoup the cost by purchasing some icons or a character sheets? vgen.co/sonybaloneyart
