If I offered “work therapy” where clients performed free domestic labor for me, I’d lose my license and go to jail, but when “Christian” nonprofits do it, it’s either God’s will or, worst case scenario, a labor violation resulting in some civil penalties like paying back wages

The only reason this isn’t considered trafficking via fraud is because crime is something poor people do

As a wise friend once told me, we can't all be infantry. But we can always be something. You don't have to broadcast your moves to be valid. Raise good children. Be a good children. Feed a stranger. RT something that makes you think Survive the fucking day. Whatever it is, you still matter.

These edits were commissioned by the folks making the In Waves movie, now on Kickstarter! It's the last few days to get in and help them reach their goal, help them out if you want to see a comedy about a man turning into a crab! www.kickstarter.com/projects/inwaves/in-waves-a-surreal-crab-comedy

Spontaneous Carcinometamorphosis, commonly known as Mancini's disease after the famed boxer-turned-crustacean Bruno Mancini, is a disease that will slowly turn skeleton to exoskeleton, hands to claws, lungs to gills, until a human being finds itself where all the roads of evolution lead: crab.

This is how "vikings" actually dressed like (a prince in this case). Not that black and brown biker jacket nonsense they are depicted like these days. Colour! People always liked colour!!

if you're curious about WHY every other occult horror movie is chock full of Hebrew-lettered diagrams, & also why this actually sucks, you can read my (citation-heavy) zine on the subject here ezrarose.itch.io/fyma-a-lesse...

I feel sick every day from fear for the ones I love, and it will only get scarier from here on out. If you’re in a comfortable place in life, consider helping my found family of mostly trans, autistic and disabled people stay safe. ko-fi.com/neonbuck #HelpSky #MutualAid

One portable generator can produce as much carbon monoxide (CO) as hundreds of cars. If you own a generator and are getting it ready for the nor’easter this weekend, check and make sure your CO alarms are working too. CO is a deadly gas you can’t see or smell and it can kill in minutes.

when hurricane season comes & goes again honey i need to hear it straight is there a reason that you still pretend you're hurrying home through all this rain? youtu.be/48cx1jvVAq8?...

I've been bedridden for the last 10 months, unable to work as I try to get a surgeon and insurance lined up for my operation to let me work again. If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Time isn't on my side here, and waiting is very expensive. ko-fi.com/fooneturing

I have neither the energy nor the supplies to cook myself anything today, and I’m out of easy options at home. If anybody wanted to throw $20 at me so I can afford to eat something that’d really help - Consider it if you’ve enjoyed my doodles ❤️✨ ko-fi.com/antonarcana

Other than the obvious eugenics, I think one of the reasons acknowledging that neurodivergence is actually a normal part of humanity is that it has led to people questioning everything from ableism to child rearing practices to education and even how society functions as a whole.

Blanksword looks extremely neat and I hope it reaches its funding goal, but if you're on the fence about backing it, or haven't heard of it before, there is a demo that you can play right now. So, why not give it a go?

YOU CAN EXTEND YOUR SUPPORT FOR WINDOWS 10 BUT YOU HAVE TO DO IT BEFORE OCT. 14! Yes it's only for one year, yes you should consider Linux, but if you just don't want to deal with this shit NOW, here's a comfy raincheck. It says "$30" but I just did for free: windowsforum.com/threads/how-...

LRP is reminding me of an ex-friend's not-Catholic but still Christian dad getting mad because they said their cat who'd passed away was in heaven at Jesus's feet

It truly is a skill issue on my part where I want a character to have some intrigue and manipulation but I don't know how to write that LOL

In Final Fantasy Tactics if a unit gains too much faith they leave your party to go find God. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you had Beast Tongue and got a monster unit to maximum faith? Of course you haven't. No one has.

MONDAY. SPITE AS FUEL.

Dear every fucking reporter Trump is not cracking down on the left Trump is making up lies to attack America We don't need to hear from 10 citizens who have never been to Portland, give their opinion on the state of Portland - we need objective truth about what is happening you spineless fucks

As well as this, I feel quite strongly that the increased prominence in recent years of social media influencers who engage in nothing but ragebait content and harassment has proverbially sucked all the air out of the room, content mills producing bullshit at speed who dominate gaming conversations.

27 year ago today, the original MediEvil was released in Europe. Do you have fond memories of playing the game? When did you first play it?

You never know what will wash up on the shore in a storm

Ryukishi's writing style is to subtly, deftly tackle the nuances of a subject matter increasingly loudly til he's violently hitting you in the head w/ the thesis in case you didn't get it yet. He wants to have a nuanced 3D exploration but also really wants you to get what he's saying. It's endearing

holy moly... so much of our history (living and written) was literally incinerated during the Shoah, so finds like this are miracles

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
