If you aren’t solidly anti-fascist right now, you fucked up a long time ago.

I care about the other stuff too, though. Not just as much ;-)

Das Disney Jimmy Kimmel wieder ans Mikrofon lässt ist kein Sieg. Es ist eben jener, zur Kultur verklärte Markmechanismus, der uns genau an diese Klima- und Faschismus-Klippe geführt hat, an der wir als Spezies Mensch gerade stehen. Nicht Werte, allein Wertschöpfung bestimmt die Gesellschaften.

Stating the effing obvious.

It may be grimdark, depressing, nihilistic and hopeless... but somewhere along the way, I hope that this machine kills fascism.

And I know, some might level criticism at the games I conjure and the stories I weave are not explicitly or on surface level life-affirming and positive tales of anti-fascism, I hope that they are vehicles for facing the darkness and as such they are antifascists.

and while play is a celebration of freedom and diversity, play can can also be cruel and oppressive.

That said - we should all strive to make our games be antifascist. I think I will meditate more on that in future designs.

This machine kills fascists. I recently read someone suggest that games and play were at their core antifascist. I wish it were so, but I don't think that games are inherently antifascist endeavours (war is after all a game)...

Every single European head of state are saying the same thing: this was a shameful display by the US president and vice president. Every single one is siding unapologetically with Zelenskyy.

This is the end of an era.

The US is no longer an ally of Europe.

The US is an ally of Putin.

President of the Republic of Moldova 👏

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

If this shit over there doesn't have you worried, you can sit back and wait until they come for the climate scientists and we will talk again. After that - we will have nothing to talk about.

BREAKING NEWS: CDC orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed. Any unpublished manuscript mentioning certain topics, including gender and "LGBT," must be pulled or revised.

One of my favourite shows growing up was V, by Kenny Johnson. In V Alien visitors represents a fascist take-over through democratic means, in the vein of It Can't Happen Here. And the first thing they start doing is demonizing scientists and after a while persecuting them.

Med TV2s dustete reklamekampanje, økonomisk kvelning av hele kultursektoren, og et stadig voksende FrP, er det jo betimelig å spørre seg om hva ~ den norske kulturen vi må passe på og beskytte!! ~ egentlig er? Er norsk kultur å være hvit, selvopptatt og ha penger?

Facebook keeps asking Reading the headlines of the week I am thinking that there is in reality more than a letter's difference between Assad's regime topples, and Assad's regime topless.

Now Facebook regrets asking me what I am thinking.about. How about you guys?
