I will be Honest. The current regime is more likely to do it to Zelensky than Putin.

you lot gotta stop calling Greenland a "white" country, the population is 89% Greenlandic Inuit, specifically the Kalaallit in the west, Tunumiit in the east, and Inughuit in the north The Inuit are decended from the Thule people, who settled Greenland between 1200-1400AD

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding one constructive real world offline thing you can do to use your particular skills in service of fighting fascism as a psychological defense against the constant drumbeat of fuckery

Man, what if I made these Heraldale books really, really horny/furry for the 10th anniversary rewrites? Haha jk, unless?

it's a dragonforce morning

Tyranny is a bad seed, waiting to sprout in finicky ground.

Dear Disney/Marvel, I know you won’t do this because you suck, but “Spider-Man VS the Towering Inferno” would be the greatest movie ever.

​I. The present order of the world is now giving way, and a new order now struggles to emerge and take hold. This struggle is at once being waged at the scale of the Earth, but also within the microphysics of everyday life.

Your lack of understanding does not make it a plothole. A plothole is something that goes against the internal logic of the show- not being told something that you can figure out on your own if you pay attention is good writing. Stop being lazy. Pay attention.

“The gentle warmth of Kanti’s illusion magic wrapped over the trio of rescuers. Among themselves they were no more than reflections upon a window pane. To the sandy-furred fennec-kitsune who poked his head through the half-open door to look the dungeon over, they were as unseen as a whisper.”

Stephen Miller wakes up every morning telling himself he's Judge Holden from Blood Meridian.

God, I will never write villain dialogue as good as what comes spewing out of this bastard’s mouth.

We are all in a state of constant panic and terror. It’s important to take a second when you see something online that triggers you to ask yourself “am it really triggered or am I just experiencing nonstop psychic damage from the world and my brain sees this as an outlet for my fear and rage.”

You have a couple hours left to buy my latest game so that I can continue making more games. Or, if you're independently wealthy, fund some stuff ;)

We have published the following update to our article following an email response from the New York Times. Trans News Network has a policy against platforming bigotry. As such, we have declined to publish the Times' statement which included blatant transphobia.

Some soldiers join out of economic desperation, but it's incontrovertible that the armed forces of the United States are evil, do evil, and serve evil. They are baby killers and imperialist drones in voluntary thrall to senile pedophile Nazis.

"something's gotten into the animals" happy year of the horse

Iconic. Unmatched.

New year, same me.

I did not survive two decades of dipshits on the internet telling me "queer TV shows will fix all our problems" for dipshits on the internet to tell me "I can't believe this queer TV show didn't solve all our problems" Pick up a book or a brick or a gun oh my gOD

“During the Vietnam War... every respectable artist in this country was against the war. It was like a laser beam. We were all aimed in the same direction. The power of this weapon turns out to be that of a custard pie dropped from a stepladder six feet high.” ― Kurt Vonnegut

keep making art but just don't delude yourself into thinking that youre engaging in real resistance. Do something so people you will never meet who live on the other side of the planet will be able to relax and engage in their own self care and draw their own pictures in peace too.

The International Red Cross / Red Crescent orgs are solid. We've worked alongside them in other countries. Support the Venezuelan Red Cross here (confirmed not on sanction list):

It's Tolkien's birthday. Two years ago, I wrote a piece on each of Jackson's films. I'm still proud of them. bsky.app/profile/scum...

the administration wants to frame this (bizarrely) as law enforcement. but if law enforcement conducted a raid for a suspect and killed 40 people, including an unknown number of unarmed civilians, it would be treated as a clear disaster like Waco.

You have 13 hours left to throw your self-published fantasy book into the #SPFBO hat! mark---lawrence.blogspot.com/2018/06/the-...

Best thing I’ve read this morning, from a human rights lawyer in Mexico. Translation is in the ALT-text.

at what point is "america is a dying empire & will collapse in on its own weight in time" just wishful thinking for a rapture event that makes people actively passive and complacent and channel away efforts from doing things. there is no sign of stopping despite everything

“Sometimes you don’t survive whole. You only survive in part. But the *grandeur* of life is that attempt. It’s not about the solution. It’s about being as fearless as one can and behaving as beautifully as one can under completely impossible circumstances.”

kiss me, you're beautiful - these are truly the last days

Ever relevant, this poem by Mary Oliver, especially today.

Three million people live in Caracas, five million in the metro area. It's one of the densest cities in South America. Remember this in the morning when they try to spin this as anything other than a cold-blooded attack on a major civilian center.

Today you should give Latin Americans the dignity of rage, and not expect people to feel grateful for your passive indignation

Woke up. Saw people saying something about Venezuela. Checked the news. WHAT THE FUCK.

Democracy holds no sway. It can't stop pouring money into a CSAM generating machine owned by some rich guy. It can't fix bad water pipes. It can't stop bombing a country and kidnapping its leader. You are already living in the aftermath of the system's death

here's what I'm talking about. it's very different. it's from a world that's being envisioned by people influenced by fairy tales and tolkien and painters as much as anything. everything has this sense of physicality and being lived in. also lots of smoke machines

Anyways read books. Listen to audio books. Tell stories. Read fanfiction. Write fanfiction. These things are good for your brain.

You know, I didn’t like the ending any when Wicked: for Good went for it, and I don’t like it any more when Stranger Things goes for it.

Apropos of nothing in particular, "sacrifice yourself to defeat your enemies and be remembered in glory" is fascist rhetoric, and we're swamped in it from decades of media

Just going to start saying "Ew, only pedos use AI" around the normies in my life and hope that shame by association works better than logic or evidence

We're open for fiction submissions! We publish unsettling bad time stories that straddle the horror, fantasy, and science fiction spectrum. But genre is made up so if you have a dark weird horrible story that could be a fit, send it in and let us worry about it. No closing date, open indefinitely.

Stephen King hit a milestone in 2025 w/ 4 adaptations of his work released in theaters, in addition to several shows. @judysquirrels.bsky.social writes abt how the King Cinematic Universe shows no sign of fading, for better and worse:

Into the Ravine

Lord of the Rings if the last alliance of elves and men had invited the dwarves: and then Glirgro Hammerfoot pushed Isildur off the cliff, for he had no patience for this nonsense.

A more accurate characterization was that Hitler was a remarkably charismatic individual who reflected, in extreme form, the prejudices many Germans already felt, whose ideas and policies were both morally horrible and also prudentially bad, bringing ruin to his country and death to his countrymen.

This is a good note to start the year on. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zl0j...
