5 Calls Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.

Okay, I cannot recommend 5calls.org enough. Enter your address and it will find all your reps (federal and state). AND give you a list of issues to call about AND which reps to call about each of them AND a little script for each, in case it's helpful. They have an app, too.

Fortnite really makes some gorgeous video game characters and it's really gonna bankrupt me

FB post that reads: As someone who’s been personally harassed by an “anti-woke, anti-DEI crowd” for the last year, I need people who aren’t aware of this “movement” to understand that unless you are a white cis man, there is nothing you can do or achieve that will convince these people you belong. Targeting DEI initiatives is gross, counterproductive, and will lead to wildly unfair hiring practices. I’ve seen people complain that DEI initiatives go too far (??), or that someone with “real qualifications” doesn’t need DEI and will be hired on merit. I’ve been in my industry for 9 years. I studied at one of the best schools for my discipline. I’ve written scripts that sold millions of copies and won dozens of awards. I was a Forbes 30 Under 30 and BAFTA Breakthrough recipient. And *still,* with all that, the anti-diversity brigade regularly calls me - in articles, emails, social media posts, and YT essays - a “diversity hire” who only gets jobs because companies want to be “woke.” It’s even worse for Black women I’ve worked with, who get all of the same in greater volume as well as slurs and racist hate. My white guy colleagues with considerably fewer accolades and experience? None of that. That’s why we need diversity initiatives. So people doing the work get recognized for it.

Copying over from FB; I posted this there because I know more conservatives there who need to hear this again and again and again

This is your reminder that if *anyone* asks you if someone you know is in the US legally, your answer to them is "Yes, of course they are." If you do not know their status, you assume they are here legally because you have no reason to assume someone isn't. 1/2

I genuinely believe that the salute was a pulse check to see what they’ll be able to get away with, and the media seems to be letting them know it’s everything.

Don’t let your craven non-confrontational nature allow you to ignore the obvious (hand) signs.

i think every anti-WFH argument i’ve ever seen invokes “isolation” as a reason commuting into offices is apparently vital but a societal push to reducing work hours and promoting engagement with local community activities instead never seems to be suggested, i wonder why that is

More threads/x, but with the feel of old Facebook timeline where you just see people you follow from most recent post (you can follow feeds that are curated also though).

When billionaires take control of vital communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

And when those billionaires justify their business motives by citing “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Don't be fooled.

We all have an emotional support dead famous guy and who he is says a lot about you.

Meta/Facebook allowing assholes to call LGBTQIA people mentally ill is not just regressive for obvious reasons but also echoes how homosexuality was defined as a real mental illness in the DSM until 1973.

"I just so much admire those disabled people who don't let it get to them, you know, the ones with a smile always on their face who don't let anything stop them from living life."

Can we not.

I don't owe you a smile when I'm in pain, just so you don't have to face the reality of disability.

Minecraft Omnidirectional Gradient Wheel for Block Palettes (1.21) || #minecraft #minecraftbuilds #art

The new update added more farms to the list too...

Made a to-do list for my Minecraft base to try and help me be productive but now I realize I have too many ideas and not sure which thing to start on first...

The system will promise you the world and send you to the grave holding their IOUs.

Please tell your kids, every damn day if necessary, that chatGPT is not a goddamn search engine and you shouldn’t believe a word it says. Tell the adults too, but it’s especially imperative to inoculate kids against this

Smosh Games has been doing more non-gamers being introduced to games content and I love it.

I also really specifically love watching someone play Minecraft for the first time.

If your legacy media news room doesn't have anyone who can speak on video games/culture at least very surface level....at this point in our history it's akin to journalistic malpractice

If you are very very worried about misinfo/disinfo and the information landscape pushing people toward extremism, you should also be very very worried about generative AI. Weirdly, people seem to view the tech as neutral!
