I feel like stuff like this is too often overlooked in discussions around technology-based mitigations of climate change. If we use tech innovations to make it easy and convenient for people to use the “greener” alternative that already exists, they’ll use it.

Oh goddamnit it's true this game is REAL GOOD

Go grab that print-and-play like I did if you wanna test it out, but if you're a 1v1 lane battle lover looking for some real dynamism in tactics and gameplay, you want this one

Michael_Foote on TikTok posted a video about how to quickly help a migrant friend who may have gotten nabbed by ICE

Sneak Peek!

For our listeners of A Shrewd Tradition - here is the promised "Stout Cal" drawing by our very own Zora from episode 14, "The Hags Pt. 2"!

As we finish this first week in September I want to talk about my writing and ask for some help in keeping my blog going. I've been trying this summer to intentionally write things that could be useful for the months ahead the-haters-guide-to-international-politics.ghost.io/the-state-vi...

The maddening thing is that we know EXACTLY how to prevent this. Yes, kids should get vaccinated, test, stay home when sick, mask as much as possible.

But even without any of that: Better ventilation and filtration in schools can MASSIVELY reduce viral spread, for all sorts of respiratory diseases.

JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH! This gave me old Google back! It killed the AI results dead!

Since this came out I've been so bitterly amused by how *much* of my stuff is here. Folks have spent so much energy declaring my work inferior and me a "DEI hire"... but then they stole every book, story, and even interview to feed their plagiarism machines.

And yeah, I'm adding my name.

me (trying to sound normal): ah, i just help look for lost cats sometimes 🥰

also me (holding a $1000 thermal hunting scope irresponsibly bought specifically to find cats):

are there any TTRPG and card game focused outlets that would be interested in reviewing a new card game that has an anime-esque and idol building slant to it?

if so please comment and i'll reach out.

Why Did National Geographic Disappear Its Own Documentary About A Queer Climate Scientist? | Defector If you’re not a particular kind of mountain sports nerd, you might not be familiar with the Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival World Tour.

Last fall, I attended the premiere of a film that meant a lot to me. In late January, all of its hundreds of planned screenings were canceled without explanation. For @defector.com, I went digging:

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

Hello.

It's almost been 10 years since UNDERTALE released.

Now, I'm looking for your memories.

Let's turn back together.

Face the flower and speak.

Donate to Kazuma's Top Surgery Fund, organized by Kazuma Hashimoto My name is Kazuma Hashimoto and I have been suffering from gender dysphoria for over 20 yea… Kazuma Hashimoto needs your support for Kazuma's Top Surgery Fund

@kazuma.bsky.social is a very cool guy and is just a hair over $2K away from being able to get their top surgery. If you can spare even just a few bucks it will make a difference, bringing this guy closer to a procedure that will free him from lifelong pain.

GDQ is proof you can be exceedingly and tremendously successful not just accepting folks but being proud and loud and loving trans folks. So many people believe in the same thing came together to raise over 2.4 mil for a great cause. Despite everything, we're Here Together.

Trans Rights!

Sounds like ICE killed a guy and then held american citizens hostage at gunpoint until they agreed to destroy the evidence

One grim thing is how some of the most prominent voices in German media (this week, Ulf Poschardt) have dismissed or ignored this reporting. In their worldview, every Palestinian citizen has been killed because of the difficulty of engaging Hamas in urban combat. But this clearly isn’t urban combat.

Otis, an orange/white cat with a GPS tracker collar. He is very friend shaped

I'm getting so local community pilled rn with my cat search activities

I've gotten to know so many names of all the cats I've bumped into just by sharing pictures of them all in a local community facebook group ❤️

here's a complimentary picture of Otis who I love very much 🧡

'It's a Killing Field': IDF Soldiers Ordered to Shoot Deliberately at Unarmed Gazans Waiting for Humanitarian Aid IDF officers and soldiers told Haaretz they were ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed, prompting the military prosecution to call for a review into possible war crimes

IDF soldiers have now themselves admitted they have been ordered to murder aid-seekers in Gaza.

Truly an atrocity built on atrocity.

The amount of support and positivity I got from everyone has been so, so incredibly affirming aaaaaaa!
Thank you all so very much!!!

Reporter: How did the Israelis treat you, we saw them giving sandwiches? Greta Thunberg: They probably have posted lots of PR stunts, they did an illegal act by kidnapping us in international waters but that’s not the real story here. The real story is the genocide in Gaza and systematic starvation. Reporter: Are you worried about the others? Greta: Yes…I’m calling for everyone who can to mobilize to demand their immediate release and, of course, to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but also a ceasefire and most importantly an end to the occupation, an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis. Reporter: “Why do you think so many countries and governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?” Greta Thunberg: “Because of racism.”

This is how.

Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

As the monk player, I think it was surprising fitting, since the tail looked a little similar to if my monk's hair had grown very very long in the back^^
All the scientists/surgeons involved in the graft preparation were also super fun to interact with!
