people keep saying scary things tonight!

image of a box that's entirely black with the logo of the MOTHER game in the middle and the words "jigsaw puzzle" and "1000 pieces"

image of said puzzle, which is a scene from earthbound/mother that features the in-game sprite of the character poo and a ghostly image floating above him as he meditates. these two figures are very small. the rest of the puzzle is made up of 1000 pieces that are pitch black.

yo this is an insane piece of merch to make. a puzzle for absolute psychos.

A moth deity, insectoid in nature, great and dead, at the whims of strange forces and possessed by the will of death incarnate, a strange amalgam body flesh and tendon reformed to suit needs beyond her will, whirling flow of spirit and bone , as she strides upon an incomprehensible mass of souls, flowing in strange ways.

Acherontia Styx

Striding across that rotten river's wake,

your soul's lament, hers to take.

abstraction rendition of a woman laying in nature

i was really high watching sisu (2022) and did an abstract doodle last night. i just got really jazzed about the color grading in the film #art

BAGGER: (spilling my groceries on the floor) Oh God. I'm so sorry. This isn't what I'm supposed to do.

ME: How are you supposed to do it?

MANAGER: She means she was gonna be a fox. In the woods and shit. But something happened and she got stuck.

BAGGER: (crying) Got so stuck.

yes, and he lost in part becaude people could print out screenshots of him arguing with people online and telling them to drink bleach, and tape them to lamp posts.

maybe they hate him around there, dunno. maybe it's his posts about how kicking ICE car tailights is stupid, or carrying guns.

this is the inflection point where you diverge from everyone on the other side of him: you think he is worth trusting for some reason. while he talks about how he is going to try and sneak in under organizer's noses, and while he is actively trying get them all replaced.

more recently, also this Stancil. side note, Stancil talk is tedious but it has provided some useful discussion material for local groups in my neck of the woods. it's very kind of him to turn himself into a living diagram of what not to do

it's an insane risk to take on someone who will get into fights over his right to film people, single-handedly rile his followers up against the organizing of an entire city, and then brag about how he's going back in anyways

not the critique + it was a critique from the guy on the ither side

Hirō Isono’s famous Mana Tree artwork for Secret of Mana (SNES) ❤️

that side of the argument is, more or less, dozens of people identical to this guy. we have to act accordingly

sure.

lotsa things there. cool? try "not actively endangering people". imaginary rules? some of us had had the faces of our loved ones blasted out into the world by the likes of Andy Ngo. good luck shutting us up. i dont care what "normal people" think if it endangers my people

ah, well. you can tie your wagon to this if you like. good luck not scaring away anyone with cause to dislike people who push boundaries

you might be missing the context that this discourse was started because of a guy that thinks Pretti was a moron and is also down to film you if he thinks you are doing a crime

note: usually the "annoying liberals" list is on-point for muting Stancil types, but i think the user here clawed his way out. congrats to him

his freak ass *can not* take no for an answer

ok well all the people that he considers effective kicked him out. seems like he's outnumbered by the effective people. what then

his neighborhood decided just that, precisely. end of. if he wants to spool up an initiative on his own, he's free to do that. he just can't hop on other people's plans.

"no" is a complete sentence. you can remember that too, if you want to interject w a woman to tell her to "accept consequences"

Very Frutiger-Aero-style chat between two cute dogs and a cat. Text: hey guys im happy ur online. how are u?? just another wonderful day surfing the net. listening to my favorite rockin tunes as always. cool i am just relaxing at home i'm having soda. i said ass crack today can you guys say it to. no one else i know is going in hell when they die. (other swears are ok it’s mainly just that)

dude literally, literally and factually, has done more to malign Pretti than any activist in MN. that's who you are pinning your hopes on, rationalizing your worldview around.

your stance is that you think you can see who he truly is in your heart but that every activist organizer for miles around him, having met him in person and acted alongside, cannot

not a tough call at all

*jingling keys* hey, you like newspapers, right? you like journalism? you like getting informed on matter of life and death before potentially talking on subjects that could lead to people losing life-saving support?

the first rule of organizing is that my pet white boy can bite anyone he wants and if you ask him to be leashed you are a fascist

the nice thing about Stancil types is that they can't fucking help themselves. self-absorption so visible it is basically warning coloration

you cant say people are building havens for sex pests and then complain that they are being rude back, can you
