This remains evergreen.

Remember how, in 1984, the Party runs a massive bureaucratic operation to constantly falsify and invent and rewite history in order to make the Party seem infallible? We've done that. But for no reason at all. And given the task to a stupid machine that turns rainforests into carbon in the process.

Anyone missing their cat? Very affectionate and has a collar. Probably have been walking quite a distance from their home based on how hungry and skinny they are.

your regular reminder that buying Harry Potter stuff gives money to Rowling and she uses that money directly and in large quantities to fund attacks on trans people

no ethical consumption under capitalism and all but “don’t buy Potter stuff” is an extremely easy baseline to follow

It took them awhile to figure out the console that Luthen didn't even fully damage, iirc even past Dedra being called out.

Idk, to me it makes more sense that Krennic never trusted Dedra and had her tagged, therefore automatically caught Lonni in action because of that.

So after his death, Krennic immediately confronted Dedra about the fact that Lonni spent 3 hours in her PC. There's too little time for tech forensics to have dug out that fact unless Krennic already had Lonni tagged earlier until his Luthen meet up.

Spoilers for Andor ahead:

Every review I've read mentioned Lonni being shot by Luthen but I thought it was clever misdirection based on the confrontation scene before Dedra Meero was arrested, and he was actually shot by Imperials?

@goobernuts.itch.io 's blog-borne document / development of Mangayaw is imho the best way to make a TTRPG. (Also Mangayaw is dope.)

@harbowoputra.bsky.social makes / writes excellent adventures. He should make more. I would dearly like to make adventures together with him, one day.

@ehronlime.bsky.social makes mechanically spry games about place + belonging. One of the scene's most supportive figures; the way he's consistently run Playtest Zero over the years is aspirational.

@momatoes.com can do it all---game design, writing, arting, layout design---beautifully. And does.

Thanks for the shout out!

@hishgraphics.bsky.social makes art; was the first person to clock Bahasa nomenclature in Star Wars; is an academic advocating for TTRPGs as a pedagogical tool.

@nanawrote.bsky.social is a poet whose games are poems about very Malaysian things: silat; Shah Alam roundabouts; festival adverts

The thing with Pedro Pascal is he not only gives a fuck; he knows he's huge enough to spend all day trashing bigots safely because entire franchises are built around him atm. He's no dispensable Gina Carano-tier secondary guy. This also underlines how most famous artists as big as him are cowards.

Are there any writerly thingamabobs to do/attend in Melbourne mid July to Aug?

I say this every year, but in case anyone else needs to hear it: not everything you write/create needs to sell or have some deeper purpose. It’s okay to experiment, to not worry if every sentence is perfect, to just write something for the fun of it that no one else needs to ever see.

As someone who works in the game industry, let me assure you: people DO care how you made it and they will express their dissatisfaction, no matter what AI companies claim.

This is amazing!

I will never love a country
as much as you
love the sinking streets
of Masjid India, love weaving
cigarette stink between night air
that steals through rolled
-down car windows riding up
Genting Highlands, Fraser's Hill,
Kemaman and me, soon
with you, to Thailand or even Pangkor.

This truly is the scary timeline.

Allahu

Cameron likes to downplay his art but I'm afraid he is a monster at creative writing.

"I don't wanna see it" is very different from "Nobody should make this" and it's frankly disturbing how some people don't seem to grasp the difference

There is beauty in the work.

Please, do the work.

Don't let your creative urges be stifled because you choose to press a button instead of opening up your soul.

If Raya is on a Tuesday then I'll try! Today too pooped from cleaning house.

Thanks friend! If Raya is on a Tuesday, then I'll make it.

I've never made one by myself and it feels kinda scary.

Do I want to try my hand at cooking rendang for the first time or no?
