If I can get the #TurtleOfCalm to pay June's rent, I will head out to Portsmouth soon and get a new batch of photos on the beachfront.
If you'd like to join in the tiny seaside adventures, here's a previous bundle. (Wallpapers also available individually.)

The protagonists of movies about ants or bees are always he/him, but they're workers, not drones. So they must be trans.

So nice to see wholesome transmasculine representation in animation, don't you think?

His kids are great though. i love how they've kept the site up as a tribute to him, but really given it their own perspectives.

For example, Young did a gag about exactly this sort of thing in the comic he wrote post-DMotR. It was a very specific era where a) someone would choose to make that joke and not in an edgelord sense, but b) it got an angry response rather than being laughed off.

You can also put the username and handle into your muted-words list. That will help.

Although with Tulsi Gabbard around, there's a question of how much all enemies foreign and domestic actually NEED the Starlink leakage.

I mostly play Pathfinder 2 so I know what you mean about the overcorrection, but my word it's better than undercorrection

All-female spaces aren't always kittens and beer, but the lack of rape jokes is a big plus.

... because it's a story of awful players with an awful DM and it's the PC who is molested, not the player. But I think the anger came from so many people—mostly women—who've sat at a table where someone did that, and the comic really dredged up those memories and mocked how humiliating it was.

I don't know if you remember the Chainmail Bikini strip where one of the players makes a grapple roll for his character to grope another player's character. It went down like a tungsten dirigible, and the creators (both cis men) were genuinely surprised at how much anger there was...

They give autistic children bleach enemas. It's monstrous.

Oh, they'd still be martyrs from in prison, and they'd be able to write there, so I say hanging.

Lee was a traitor in defence of slavery, and he should have been hanged for it.

Genuinely surprised they didn't run it through Grok to sound like someone else.

The USSR also had a pretty damn big population pool to choose from. That helps.

Water! Why are people so reluctant to use water? It's good stuff for human beings! We need to drink it every day! We already know it doesn't harm our skin or our eyes!

Ugh, I hate that. I know the US is different, but in a lot of European countries, "my kids can't afford anywhere to live" is a MASSIVE factor in people voting for fascists.

I hope that there's a colossal gold-plated Trump statue because can you imagine the joy of seeing it toppled when all this is over?

No grass. It wouldn't do if any of his cabinet touched it.

Please, please let them install a giant gold-plated Trump statue. It will be so fun to see it toppled.

See, a big thing about Dutch bike safety that I think is often underestimated is that everyone starts out as a child cyclist. It really changes the empathy equation.

Yeah, because this is a situation where the behaviour comes from a mindset where the perpetrators genuinely don't think they're doing anything wrong. Changing that mindset is going to be very difficult, but hard consequences might change the behaviour.
