How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

Loooved this. Made me nostalgic for a childhood I never had, made me miss five-a-side at uni, made me watch hours long old match of the day compilations on youtube. The beautiful game indeed.

CARIMARA: BENEATH THE FORLORN LIMBS IS OUT NOW ON STEAM
a short horror story about ghosts, goblins and polite anxiety of asking too much.
untangle the mysteries of a "ghost problem" haunting this unwelcoming, desolate house. even if it means digging up uncomfortable truths.

The great paradox of Bluesky is that the presence of Jesse Sıngal on here is a true negative, but also the best way to improve your experience here is to subscribe to the "Jesse Signal Followers Blocklist" bsky.app/profile/did:... , and if bluesky banned him that would no longer be a useful signal

So I'd like to show a demonstration of what this "waffles" thing is. Here's a conversation between *this site's* CEO, some random guy, and the cofounder of "Tangled", a GitHub clone built on top of Bluesky's protocol.
Please take a moment to really think, about the shape of this thoughtlessness.

Delusions of a Protocol
On vaporware as an ideological product.
I had to expunge my thoughts on Bluesky's current, uh, choppy waters into a proper blog post (which jay can't take down for being too mean or saying 'lol' in a threatening way)

i cannot apply for a credit card. itch has no way to bypass and vpns seemely make no difference

Irish Mythtober Day 1: Púca
The Púca is a mischievous shapeshifting creature. If you've ever eaten a blackberry after Samhain that tasted funny, it's because it was spat on by the Púca!
I've painted some Púca for the game and hidden them among a photo of the Rock of Dunamase!

The best time to boycott Xbox and Microsoft was when BDS called for it, the next best time is now. Focused, targeted boycotts work, this one is working, and all you got to do to support it is go play other games. Literally the least you could do in this moment in history

Keep pressuring Microsoft to end all complicity!
As a consumer, boycott Microsoft products whenever possible and join the Xbox boycott.

Since the full extent of Microsoft's complicity has yet to be uncovered and there are no signs of re-hiring employees fired for protesting, I'd see this less like a win and more like blood in the water. This is MS trying to cover itself
Keep boycotting, keep hurting their bottom line.

I literally spent 10 min translating Lula’s speech about Palestine to English. I just need every single one of my gringo friends to listen to this man in order to maybe restore their faith in politics. This right here is a politician. This is why we voted for him. And personally, I’ll do it again.

There's still around 10.000 people who bought this game and haven't started it yet. I appreciate the support but also: Do play it!
There's something you have NEVER seen in a game before and a difficulty system based on the country you pick at start. 🫰

But we don't care, because we won't buy them anyway, because we don't support companies that nakedly profit off of genocide and are specially marked by BDS for targeted boycotting, RIGHT?
