Good morning!

Illuminated Blood: Proximus is out now on the Storytellers Vault for #MageTheAwakening! It has new rules, Merits, and Dynasties for Proximus characters, and NPCs that can be used in any Chronicles of Darkness game! #TTRPG www.storytellersvault.com/product/5156...

Has the Youtube algorithm gotten noticeably shittier and more aggressive in pushing culture war garbage for anyone else in the last two days? I've had mine curated and trained pretty well for a long time, then all of a sudden it just developed rabies out of nowhere.

I really enjoy Gordon Ramsay, which is why it's a shame I haven't been able to watch a lot of his American shows (Kitchen Nightmares and Hotel Hell particularly). It kind of breaks the premise when, on ten minutes' acquaintance, I WANT the owner to fail and have all their shit repossessed.

Fun fact: I'm an erotica author. I've been published. I'm a woman writing fiction for other women to masturbate to, and I'm good at it. I've improved lives by doing so. I'm proud of it. If it's not for you, it's not for you. But if it's for you, then don't let them shame you for having it.

Evil men protect other evil men. They should all die

Hello folks, today is my 34th birthday. I have to fly on down south to attend to family matters tomorrow, and thus today must be spent on labor. If you'd like to throw money at me, I am appreciative. I am also appreciative of kind words or remembrance of interactions had. ko-fi.com/goatmansgoblet

💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes. Deere shareholders: DEI is in. Bigots are out

🧵1️⃣People platforming Mearls is fucking horse shit, Look he hired and enabled multiple fascists and then fed those fascists the names and data of people issuing complaints about the fascists. yes, he probably has some *really* in-depth thoughts about why 2024 DnD is bad but so do many people.

Okay, time to update this. *gayly clears throat* Hey, BlueSky. My name is Autumn Wolff. I write books about women kissing, fucking, and falling in love. Sometimes, there are monsters, sometimes magic. You can find all my books here: books.bookfunnel.com/autumnwolff #booksky #lesbianbooks #indie

there needs to be one normal person employed at every comic company, and their job needs to be to get asked "would you look back on this story fondly in even one year, Normal Person" and if the normie says no the creatives start over from scratch. I am so serious.

BABE WAKE UP THEY'RE MAKING A PHANTASY STAR TTRPG skydawngames.com/phantasystar...

Just despicable and disgraceful. The US government is now indistinguishable from the mafia.

I desperately need y'all to pull your heads out of 2002 and fast-forward to the part where you figure out that rule of law is not endangered, it is already dead and in a state of advanced decomposition, and then start pondering what if anything you are going to do in response to this reality.

@holdenshearer.bsky.social , thought you’d want to know that I had a Patreon request to make a version of the Exalted Vs WoD sheet with the Dark Ages abilities, so I made a tweak to the logo to go with it. 😉 mrgone.rocksolidshells.com/pdf/Exalted/...

funniest highlights of the philly police scanner, a thread

…Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase ‘The innocent have nothing to fear’, believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like ‘The innocent have nothing to fear’… - Terry Pratchett, Snuff

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

Oh, there is some good news today then!

📣 MAJOR MAJOR PSA 📣 YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SIGN UP FOR A PROTEST. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO "REGISTER" TO SHOW SOLIDARITY. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE YOUR NAME, ADDRESS, AND PHONE NUMBER TO HAND OUT AND DISTRIBUTE MATERIALS. YOU JUST SHOW UP.

I keep thinking about my now-abandoned Twitter account and the destructive stupidity of Elon Musk. I know a lot of people who have not just left, but nuked their accounts.

do we know anyone in a position of power, such as an elected official, who might assist in such an effort

Guys I’m beginning to think all of this isn’t about fairness in women’s high school sports

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner
