Y'all don't wanna fuck around with even a single foot of tsunami waters, the weight of the entire ocean is behind that and if you're in a tsunami zone you need to hustle the hell out of there. #tsunami

I made a quick and dirty anti-censorship cheat sheet to help onboard people and direct their energy in a productive direction. This isnt as comprehensive as various websites being shared around, but it should be easy to share and save.

Save the png and repost as widely as you can

Yeah

This. This is how you do it. I've worked in tech support since I was a teen and I can tell you this is how to get them to pay attention. Emails get catalogued and put aside, but EVERY CALL is recorded and logged and if you keep referencing the case number it ups the counter in the ticket each time.

When it hits over 80 in airconditionless Seattle I understand why other cultures just say fuck it for a month out of every year

Image of a post by @lextenebris.bsky.social proposing the concentration camps being built in Florida would be suitable as a game scenario for Starforged. Post also uses AI images of imprisoned women. Block and avoid.

Hey, anyone who thinks turning an actual internment camp into a game scenario is not welcome in any ttrpg space I occupy. Fuck all the way off @lextenebris.bsky.social and take your shitty AI "art" with you.

This is an amazing thread and you should read it. Yes, all of it.

It's spot on and an important reminder about the times we are in. What we are ACTUALLY up against right now.

stop running away from trans people and fight back

Real writing, involves 1 human brain communicating &connecting w/other human brains, across time&space. If the human is removed, all that's left is words we already made, stolen&reworked by a machine w/o intent. The intent matters. It's what makes meaning&deepens it. Words w/o meaning are worthless.

Books, videogames, movies... It doesn't matter if she's not directly involved. She gets royalties, and those go into her ongoing hate campaign. Stop trying to mentally absolve yourself. If you're spending money on Harry Potter, this is where it's going.

The Black Armada/Ickbat team would also love to help out if any transfriends want a bathroom buddy.

You know you can design a TTRPG any time you want and be a game designer. You don't need any fancy credentials or some wild abundance of creativity.

You can draw on what you know and simply make a thing. You don't even need to publish it, though it's fun to put it out there.

Go make something.

I read the City Watch series at a time when I was coming to terms with this, and it helped me feel more normal. It also helped show me a better way to deal with it: don't repress it, don't give into it, hold it until it can be redirected into something good. Don't waste it.

Of all the quotes from Night Watch, this is the one that means the most to me.

I spent most of my life suppressing a lot of anger, despite looking like a very calm individual. In true neurodivergent fashion, I didn't even realize it myself until it started affecting my health.

A fake lilac sprig is tied to a leaf.

“Vimes was ready. He grabbed the boy, swung him round, and twisted the thing out of his hand before murder was done.

No! That’s not the way! This is not the time! Hold it back! Tame it! Don’t waste it! Send it back! It’ll come when you call!”

The Peoples Republic of 25th & Main by C. R. Legge What impact will you make with the time you have left?

It's the 25th where I am, so happy #glorious25th!

I just released the ashcan of my #ttrpg "The Peoples Republic of 25th & Main".

Inspired by Terry Pratchett's book "Night Watch", it explores the idea that a successful revolution might not look like what you expect.

I learned more about kindness and humanity from reading Terry Pratchett than anyone or anything else and it isn’t particularly close

we lost him far too soon

GNU Terry Pratchett, and a happy Glorious Twenty-Fifth of May to all of you

Best Star Trek crew, wrong answers only.

<Neutrality helps the opresor>

The game is GM-less with options for solo and duet play and is designed to work perfectly for one-shots. All that's needed to play is some 6 sided and 10 sided dice, a deck of playing cards, and something to write with.

The players are caught up in a revolution that is destined to fail, but they are going to do everything they can to make a positive change in the time they have left. While trying to delay being overrun by the opposition, they need to work together to achieve their goals.
