2 April is the Feast of St Flounder, patron of mid-life changes. As the eye of the flounder migrates across its skull, so do we migrate through our lives. This saint is often portrayed lying on his side with both eyes on the left side of his head. It is unsettling and rarely favored in paintings.

The abuser’s classic playbook is to isolate you from your friends, create a sense of helplessness, make it difficult to connect with others and force you to simply think about your survival from one day to the next. We are seeing that playbook applied to the nation as a whole.

OPSEC means "I'll be posting the OPS in a SEC."

Recently got The Wildsea ttrpg from Bundle of Holding. Spent the weekend reading it and dreaming up a Monster of the Week style campaign for a Wildsea Wilderness Rescue and Rehabilitation Team that I'm super excited about

Is this what the collapse of civilization looks like?

I think disco elysium is the perfect capital L leftist video game experience because they got immediately dogwalked by capitalists (not even smart ones) and then splintered into smaller circles that are fighting with each other instead of making their games

The further right the democrats go, the more republicans they’ll make.

If they’re going to capitulate to republican policies anyways, people are just going to choose the party that’s actually successful at those policies to begin with.

Tbh you all should have gleened how this country feels about disabled people from the fact that anytime yall are nice to one of us it goes viral.

Like that’s extra ordinary behavior.

This is actively something I don’t think people realize about this election: people forget that the Democratic Party (the vast majority) was actively ignoring their constituents at the same time they were demanding they vote for them.

The images and videos that came out of the DNC alone…

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.

They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

Read the Resignation Letter From Hagan Scotten Hagan Scotten, an assistant U.S. attorney, wrote to Emil Bove, acting deputy attorney general, refusing to drop the case against Mayor Eric Adams.

The lead prosecutor on the Adams investigation - Hagan Scotten - resigns from SDNY.

“I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion [to dismiss Adams charges]. But it was never going to me.”

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have developed a nasal COVID-19 vaccine that BLOCKS transmission of the virus. This suggests vaccines delivered directly to the nose or mouth could play a CRITICAL role in containing the spread of respiratory infections. Phase I clinical trials HAVE BEEN APPROVED! 🧪🧵⬇️

the problem with RFK jr is not that he is an addict it is that he is the horseman pestilence

Wait...people really think Kendrick Lamar's performance was supposed to be patriotic?

Please bring back liberal arts 😭😭😭

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

Based Hellboy.

Disco Elysium blowing up the way it did should be evidence that there’s no predicting the games market. Imagine trying to tell a money guy that game of the year was gonna be an Estonian visual novel by communists where you can pet the mailbox and say “I want to make fuck with you”

Kendrick is showing the world that you don't need to hate an entire group of people. It's enough to simply hate one specific person the most you possibly can.

Damn, Kendrick just proved America really is cracking down on soft Canadian imports.

Art matters.
Art is a powerful means of speaking truth to power.

When it seems the powerless are being silenced, artists, musicians, writers, entertainers, and poets give the people a voice.

if i text you this just know you’re cooked

KENDRICK JUST NOW

A MINOOOOOOOOOOOOOR

Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

Wanderhome and Kids on Bikes were my first thoughts. Combat is a no go for Wanderhome. And in KOB it is super basic, just a single roll, which makes it less interesting than exploring alternative options.
