People care. If you care, you can find folks who care about the same thing and DO something.

You don't have to get arrested. You don't even have go to a protest. But there are HUNDREDS of groups pushing back in all kinds of ways on all of the horrors.

Find your group and push back with them.

REP. @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Texas Dems are fighting back— we’re leaving the state, breaking quorum, preventing Republicans from silencing our voices & rigging the election… we’re not fighting for the Democratic Party, we’re fighting for the Democratic process.”

I think the use of chatbots for stuff like this is intended to train people to use it to avoid everything that’s painful or hard. It can write the obituary, the breakup text, the complaint letter. It’s meant to separate humans from their difficult feelings. Seems bad.

The fact that some people will hear "1500%" and not think about the fact that this would, in theory, mean the drugs should somehow be more than free, makes me sad.

Hey so I wrote an epic fantasy series with gay elves, non-toxic masculinity, and undead armies.

I think it's pretty cool. Several people agree with me, even outside my family!

I cannot describe how fucking happy it makes me seeing journalists just pointing out that they're lying. Once again, if you're calling, bringing up these articles as why you're calling is a VERY good idea.

Why are they lying? Why are they refusing to process legal transactions?

New Yorkers showed up at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn today to demand their elected officials stop the genocide in Gaza.

Listen to them, @schumer.senate.gov and take action immediately. The world is watching. Save lives! Save a people!

“but he was legitimately elected”

yes he was, and he immediately followed it up by committing a lot of crimes and otherwise attempting to destroy our entire system of government and replace it with autocracy

just because people made a mistake doesn’t mean we can’t fix it

I don’t think there is a day that goes by that I am not reminded of an old teacher’s admonition: “If the only history that interests you is the history that makes you feel good about yourself, you are not interested in history; you’re interested in propaganda.”

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Farrah. Farrah was engaged to Muhanad when the war started and they had just bought a small apartment to start their lives together. It was destroyed before they could move in. They married despite the chaos and are now just trying to survive

I always expected Owlcat to do a Starfinder RPG, but it looks like Paizo is working with a new studio on a project. Coming to Kickstarter soon, it seems.

This has my attention.

Not a lot of non-swords and sorcery CRPGs these days, and I couldn't play Mass Effect due to motion sickness.

I wonder if you get to make a "you", like many CRPGs these days.

My Patreon has a $1 tier, and it's not a tip jar, you see art.
If enough people enjoy my work and just want to "let him cook".. one dollar a month is all it takes. I get to eat, pay bills/rent and you get to see art w/o aren't breaking the bank.
Many hands make light work.

🚨 This is dangerous, not just outrageous.

Two major newspapers ran stories implying disabled people were faking it to get 2-for-1 Oasis tickets, simply because some wheelchair users stood up at the gig.

Let me explain why this kind of reporting is harmful. 🧵1/8

I want you all to understand that every time a politician calls for a release of the hostages and does not mention the MANY Palestinian hostages in Israel, they are making it clear they only value some lives — those adjacent to power, those it is politically safe to defend.

The "Damage the Brand" clause was specifically what Visa used against MelonBooks back in December, and Toranoana in August 2024, to justify cutting them off, which basically doomed international sales for both retailers.
