The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

Peak #Ventrue moment in tonight's Thorns Among the Roses #V5 session, "Oh you're done frenzying now I see." Said to a #Tremere! #VampireTheMasquerade

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama. Us: Across your entire career? Reiner: In a 6 year period. Us: That sounds- Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

🇦🇺 AUSTRALIA: “The man who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters has been identified as Ahmed al Ahmed. The father-of-two has been hailed a hero after pouncing on one of the gunmen and wrestling a rifle from his arms.” thenightly.com.au/australia/ns...

I have absolutely zero faith that this would ever happen, but it would be really cool if those of my people who have spent the last two years (and beyond) dehumanizing Arab and Muslim people would watch the heroism of Ahmed al Ahmed and feel deeply ashamed of themselves. And then shut the fuck up.

Freedom Bound is setting sail, errr, they already did that Freedom Bound has landed in Santiago de Cuba in the mid 1500s Pro: It is tiny and there are no other vampires Con: It is tiny and there are no other #vampires What will the coterie do next? #VampireTheMasquerade #V5 #WorldOfDarkness

Here We Go

In terms of US politics, Bush v. Gore is the defining event of the century. It set the template: a ruthless right that instinctively seeks power & doesn't give a shit about rule of law...and a bunch of hapless, feckless octogenarian Dems worried about the good opinion of centrist opinion columnists.

At least three times during Wednesday's session: Player: "I cast fireball!" Storyteller: "Okay, Rouse the Blood and roll Manipulation + Obfuscate" hecking #Ravnos amiright? #V5 #VampireTheMasquerade #WorldOfDarkness #WoD #TTRPG #RPG #FireBall

This. This was the formative event of my generation & our entire politics in 🇺🇸. The structural break after which we were no longer a full democracy, when 5 Wizards In Robes decided they were a super-legislature & counting all the actual votes didn’t matter. The rest has been 25 years of commentary.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

Mosasaurs, the giant marine reptiles that roamed the Earth more than 66 million years ago, didn’t just live in the sea. Our new research shows that they could thrive in freshwater too! Let’s dive into what we’ve discovered. #Paleontology #Mosasaurs

Tonight's #V5 #Sabbat chronicle Blood on the Pavement was so much fun. It was a really combat heavy session, so not normal for me at all, but I had a blast and I am pretty sure my players did as well.

Who wants to play some #V5 #VampireTheMasquerade in 2026? You? Come on down to Vancouver, the largest city in #SupernaturalBritishColumbia to see how you fare as a baby vamp!

I don't know why I haven't made this before now.

I am brimming with holiday spirit

Building a #WorldOfDarkness / #WerewolfTheApocalypse Nagah nest chronicle. Doing a "best-of" and pulling from multiple editions. #W5 fans, what is good about losing Gnosis? #W20 (and other) fans, why keep it for the Nagah? What else should I be considering?

4 days of Christmas 4 days of Vampire The Masquerade Feeling the gothic punk holiday spirit!

Are you really autistic if you aren't being yelled at for doing the thing you were explicitly told to do?

I want my local police to police ICE. THAT’s what I want my taxes to do.

Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis. They coined the term “useless eaters”. They tested the gas chambers on us. They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives. That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous. We’re not expendable

Still wild to me that companies got together and lied about a mass shoplifting epidemic and fundamentally changed things in all stores so that it’s worse for everyone, and then we found out they lied, and no one fucking did anything about it, and this is just life now

Whoever set up a functional gmail style inbox of Epstein's inbox deserves a journalism prize. jmail.world

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy. Well this worked out well

We need to shift our conceptions of transness to a way that understands trans women as women before we are trans, trans men as men before they are trans, non-binary people as non-binary before they are trans, etc

#charlotte doing her thing:

From a reddit post discussing ICE moving into Charlotte

Major US cities are experiencing outbreaks of violence caused by armed gang members. These thugs are masked and dangerous. They attack and kidnap people off the streets and at their places of work. The group should be designated as a domestic terrorist organization. They call themselves ICE.

This is America

“Re ‘There are a lot of people on your side who will be in the Epstein Files too!’: No there aren't, my side is the ‘People Who Don't Fuck Children’ side, anyone not on this side can get all the way into the bin, what side are YOU on, exactly?” — John Scalzi

Borders belong in the 20th century

Dear Leftist (socialist and communist) comrade, Just wanted to say that I love y'all. Every single one of y'all Revolutionary Socialist and Communist activists, community organisers, union reps out there, I love y'all. Never forget that. Community, solidarity, and love is how we survive all this.

Finally!

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

#V5 #Camarilla chronicle tonight! Matt was lost in the Cobweb. Stephen schemes for Port value. Undertaker builds a new gang. Joshua nailed a 5-success ritual. The wild card: DJ Turbo just landed a massive career invite—but at what price? Head games, dark magic, power, & a possibly Faustian bargain.

My coworkers just texted me a picture of her putting the new dry erase markers into my drawer at work She knows 😍 if I can't find my dry erase markers I just wander around the adoption center muttering, "Do you have my markers?" I believe you have my markers," and "Why do people take my markers?"
