community is just the people around you i learned

But this of course means that when certain "abolitionists" speak of "the community" and "peace holders" in ways that layer on hippie vibes it's important to realize that vibes don't matter, structure does, and "the community" is often just functionally The State reskinned.

Seeing some discussion about FF Tactics music on here. What if I told you about how Hitoshi Sakimoto and Masaharu Iwata did a chunk of the soundtrack for Gauntlet IV on Genesis that sounds like a precursor to their Tactics work youtu.be/KCNKUqzKGKQ?...

Jackbooted fucking thugs

arbys i love ya but if i wanted a 'loaded italian' id show up at family reunions

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

i think this picture, from a public promo stream for a video games starring one of the most popular comic book characters of all time owned by the disney corporation, should be used on every single story about storefronts taking down lgbt content

it is maddening that in posting a comic on a social media platform i have to be uncertain and paranoid about including content that could easily appear in an r-rated movie or a cable tv show.
