I want to add, older people are/have been carrying a lot of the protests right now. As I've said previously, I live near a weekly one and they've been out there every Saturday for months; I messaged my friends about seeing them back in February.

We have witnessed lawmakers killed for progressive beliefs. We have witnessed senators thrown to the ground and cuffed because they questioned. We have seen people gassed, shot, trampled for peaceful protest. And we came out anyway. Because quietly abiding hasnโ€™t protected us. And we are many.

Main character energy is OUT, this summer weโ€™re bringing NPC energy. Weโ€™re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. Weโ€™re leaning casually near a locked door and saying โ€œI donโ€™t think you have the key for thatโ€ when someone tries the handle. Weโ€™re staring at a tree.

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question).

an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question:

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.
 
it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. โ€œyou simply must visit the monsterโ€”i always just ask the monster.โ€

there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesnโ€™t mean it has no price

for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

Now Is a Pretty Good Time To Buy This Trans Rights TTRPG Bundle Today is a terrible day for trans folks. This TTRPG bundle at least promises to do some good for trans rights charities.

โ€œTTRPGs for Trans Rights โ€” Ohioโ€ features $1,766 worth of games...from over 200 game developers, all for just five bucks...benefits trans advocacy group TransOhio and queer youth organization Kaleidoscope Youth Center. The bundle has currently raised over $55,600, with a $100,000 goal set."

A series of Tumblr posts:

The old magic persists thanks to its unfathomable power."
No, the old magic persists because the new magic can't run the legacy spells I need to do my job, and keeps trying to install spirits I don't want or need onto my orb.

Look, if the new magic didn't have a personality construct that kept trying to tell me which spells to use, maybe I wouldn't still be using the old magic.

Yes it had a deep blood cost, but at least it was a one time sacrifice and not this monthly bloodletting nonsense new age magic has

The old magic is robust enough to survive a decade of use and it's compatible with every wand, staff, scroll, and charm in our collection.
The new magic stops working after three days and every spell uses proprietary runes.
Our preferences, as an archiving institution, should be pretty clear.

You try to get guidance for the new magic and the king's sorcerers maybe will answer you in a few days with an unhelpful suggestion to buy the newest orb.
You need guidance for the old magic and a dozen retired middle-aged wizards will pop up to explain it to you rune by rune if necessary.

Letโ€™s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. Heโ€™s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when itโ€™s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. Thatโ€™s it.

I love solving problems. I love collaborating with other creatives to solve problems.

And I like to make the little person in the screen wiggle, and sometimes explode.

It's creative and technical and fun.
