If you want to go really light-touch (to avoid reactive egos) "unproductive line of discussion" might do it.

Ok, I checked and I do have a few intact sprues. Can I DM?

The first panel says democrats when they're in the minority with a picture of Emperor Palpatine saying I'm too weak the second panel says democrats when they're in the majority same picture of palpatine saying I'm too weak third panel democrats preventing workers from developing class consciousness suddenly Emperor Palpatine is screaming with electricity shooting out of his hands.

All day, every day. 😐

i think the inability to tell the difference between "i don't like it" and "i don't like it so i have to figure out a way to imply this thing i don't like is morally evil" is the most fundie thing i see people who are aren't technically fundie regularly do these days

This is one of those things that I think is quietly important – when these people are talking shit about cities, Portland or Minneapolis or New York or Charlotte or wherever, you have to loudly say, “no, fuck you, you’re lying, that town and its people whip ass and you’re the asshole”

"that new book is so bad here's our second review, 4th profile, and third podcast about it"

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Lol oh how right you are! My friends and I got Mordheim the summer it came out but we never got a chance to play it before going back to university. I still have a semi-assembled/painted witch hunters gang made from an Empire Militia box set and a handful of metal flagellants.

I'm into it. I never got into 40k, and totally have the late-90s Oldhammer nostalgia bug. (Although I enjoyed Necromunda more.)

I was just thinking earlier that post-apocalyptic settings are so popular because it's the only way out of *gestures vaguely* that most people can envision. And... Yikes.

Perfect natural experiment. If Biden and Congress had treated the Jan 6th insurrection like the treason it was and jailed the people behind it, Trump’s power would have shriveled on the vine.

Also "if people didn't need the newest iPhone all the time they could afford houses."

"But actually he was granted asylum on YOUR watch" is neither a gotcha nor particularly helpful for the interests of justice. It infers both that there was something wrong with the grant (and I have seen no evidence of that) and that the Trump admin is being too generous with asylum generally (lol)

@profanity.accountant Eh?

Look, if you're not an expert you wouldn't know, but this chart is bullshit. They could not possibly measure this as 1. How can you tell for sure? There's no reliable automated way. 2. You're not counting the many sites that are blocking crawlers now.

But there's an even more important reason...

Two scales illustrating the social environment composed by men. The first, prefaced with "I've learned that a lot of guys visualize our social environment like this" shows over 95% of the line to depict "good men", and a small bit to illustrate "crazed evil men". The second line, prefaced with "But it's actually closer to this", is labeled as follows: at the 1/8 mark, "heroic men who will intervene" another eighth "well-meaning men who underestimate the issue", the next line, at about halfway, reads "men who think certain women deserve it (but aren't active predators)" , the line after that, "men who passively enjoy/consume/encourage predation", at the 3/4 mark, "textbook predators we're all afraid of" and a final mark nearly at the extreme end of the scale, labeled "monsters so cruel we can't even fathom them".

I don't recall where I found this, but I'd say this looks about right.

Just want to point out that "Indigenous Writes: A Guide to First Nations, Métis & Inuit Issues in Canada" has a new edition coming out in the spring of 2026 with a much expanded exploration of administrative definitions of Indigenous folks (and more).

What. Canadians are 23% pickle by weight.

Yup it happened.

I'm in for that as soon as she picks a damn book.

Two thoughts:

1: You can't tell me she wasn't a wizard.
2: We know so little about the past and it was almost certainly way cooler (in some ways) than we can imagine.
