I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

Recipe: and three cloves of garlic… Me: did I hear you say one large head of garlic? Recipe: no, no, just three… Me: one whole large head of garlic it is!

Hey everyone. If you can read this sentence, please take some time to read this thread. I'll be going offline, quite possibly forever unless the current situation ends or is averted. This goes without saying, but this is a thread. Reskeets appreciated

I forgot that season 2 of Seaquest took a hard turn into supernatural away from sci-fi. Not that season 1 was exactly hard sci-fi.

Okay, being inspired by a game is one thing, but I think Windwalk Games might owe Supergiant royalties.

Something an annoying hipster character in a film could say: I only listen to bands from Athens Georgia.

Today I learned that in some corners, M means thousands and MM means millions.

I’m outside smoking, and a car drives by with the music cranked a bit. Male voice singing: “What you want me to do?” Suddenly music cuts out for a second… “Turn right on…”

working on a thing and decided it should be a poem instead of just prose. because @ada.rainbowcommunism.org has decided to encourage me I'm also going to share the first little bit: It all began with but a dream. Your dream to be precise. A world to shape how it would seem with virtue or with vice.

The show has a name now~ Wednesday at 6 PM PST!

I know it has magic and talking animals, but the most unrealistic part of Wicked is that anyone thinks Elphaba is anything but drop dead gorgeous, in part because, not in spite of, her skin tone.

I’m not saying that Trump and Musk worked together to engineer these recent attacks to distract from the growing class consciousness that has arisen since the New York shooting. I’m not saying it.

Consent is key.

me, @ada.rainbowcommunism.org, and a few others are going to be running a mixture of parlor larp and collaborative world building game starting next year. Easy pace low commitment we're doing just 3 games a year so lots of time to breathe between games. eraofages.com/application/

Is it wild to think that neighboring states with low populations should be merged? Or maybe states with large populations should be split up? Equalize senatorial representation a bit? Like Idaho, Wyoming, Montana don’t need to be separate states, right? Nebraska and Kansas. The Dakotas. Right?

Where in Philly is a queer friendly tat parlor where I can get a “Deny Defend Depose” tattoo? Preferably around $150-200. Unless I can do it one word at a time. Not just standard lettering. Gonna break out a vector graphics program and get fancy.

Appointment on Friday to get my first ever passport. For reasons. Not currently planning a trip, but…

Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with this domain besides bsky handles.

After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba. I’m crowdfunding it now—please back & share! 🔗 launchgood.com/1948

Not correctly utilizing Hofstadter’s Law when giving work estimates has come back to bite me in the ass.

biomancer.itch.io/chronomancy Is the thing. The current version at the site is a little bit behind the picture Ada posted.

Collaborative world building is so fun. I’m sorry did you say street magic is so great at city building, are there any really good pantheon/religion world building games?

Very early stages, but working on a new thing with some talented people.
