Magic: The Gathering

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

this exists it is called thinking

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

i know that the HK brainrot has been strong with me, but alter nerds, hear me out

the american right has been getting away with this plausible deniability shit for so long that they don't even have to do it anymore to be mainstream. they can openly say vile shit and the "liberal media" will find some way to make it plausibly deniable.

Craterhoof Behemoth is just happy to be here

all fascists are cowards, if you tell them no they run scared, if you try to appease them they sense weakness and attack harder

there is no level of peacefulness or obedience that will prevent fascists from convicting you of violence and incitement. you have already been judged and sentenced, and it doesn't matter how well behaved you are

Bruh

close enough, i'll come back for that last percentage point later. sits right up there with Hollow Knight and Super Metroid at the peak of the genre, even with the handful of complaints i can muster

D is out here embarrassing every other region, though G and F can both hang on the weekend if they want to

thinking New Tattoo thoughts...

At this point in my life I have very little patience for people attributing malice to "the devs" if a game comes out bad. Like come on what are you 14. The moment you work anywhere in any industry it becomes very apparent that most boneheaded decisions are from management and grunts have to deal

Trump did not leave Chicago. He just didn't send the National Guard. Instead, he sent his deportation thugs. And in some ways, that's quite a bit worse.

cis people who follow me i'm gonna need you to internalize this and repeat it whenever you see fuckin' anything, okay?

thinking i might have to submit either The Knight or Hornet as my contribution to my company's next fight night...

It feels so fucking insane to be scolded about how leftists need to tone down our rhetoric while the world's richest man endorses this shit

"We have to cancel kristallnacht 2.0 because the guy was one of the people we were grooming to take part in it" is a heck of a twist to be sure

i think the @wsj.com should pay every trans person's rent this month

Fuck your disgusting bullshit rag of a newspaper. From fucking blaming this shit on trans people with no actual facts to "how could this happen to such a good boy." Fuck you. Eat shit.

THIS IS THE GOOD LUCK FLEEM LIKE AND REPOST TO HAVE GOOD LUCK ON YOUR NEXT PACK PULLS TELL FLEEM YOU LOVE HIM FOR EXTRA GOOD LUCK BE AURE TO COME BACK AND LET FLEEM KNOW WHAT COOL CARDS YOU GOT FROM YOUR PACKS #MTG

why the fuck is this article still up. why the fuck are they still saying trans people had anything to do with this. @wsj.com what the fuck is wrong with your editorial team. this isn't news, it's an invitation to violence

if they had any shame this would be resignation-worth embarassment

Haha ohhh wow

for all the things about 2025 that suck, it's also been the most For Me year for videogames i've maybe ever lived through. Blue Prince, Expedition 33, Rematch, Silksong, and now the announcement of Metroid Prime 4 and the Hades 2 1.0 release??? are you kidding me????

made my professional Fight Choreography Debut a couple weekends ago by putting together campy fights between horror characters with the theatre company I’m a part of

It’s funny seeing all the right wing talking heads try and condemn violence, only to be reposted with screenshots of their own calls to violence. Your ethos means nothing if your praxis contradicts it.

Being so serious, why the fuck are our tax dollars paying for a cop podcast

I feel like in a different world claiming that bullet casings had trans stuff on it and then immediately getting that debunked would be enough to make a major American newspaper to shut down but you know life in the time of fascism we've always been at war with eastasia

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

“Charlie Kirk was a bad person but even bad people don’t deserve to be murdered” is all they have to say. It’s not hard.

if charlie kirk didn't get shot the right wing would be equally and as consequentially as mad about a tv commercial or restaurant logo or something else, they're gonna do what they're gonna do regardless

oh cool stochastic terrorism

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

This is the line that Dems need to push. It can't be simply. "Political violence is bad" it MUST be "Political violence is bad and Trump and his ilk are responsible for creating conditions ripe for political violence"

Oh weird the image of fascist crackdowns on protest has left a stain the regime can't fully scrub away!

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

the haters (Valve's server capacity) are trying to sabotage me

Last night, the fate of the Lovers were turned over and over and over Listen to Act 3 of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in any podcatcher, YouTube, or the website! ✨ 🌙

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

that final ability line is literally just

If you’ve ever worried whether art matters. It does.
