I’d protest football games with a Leviticus 11:7 sign since people like to protest us with Leviticus 18:22 signs. But I feel like they wouldn’t get it.

There was no "Before JKR was bad." When she wrote the books, she was racist, homophobic, and antisemitic. If you were unable to recognize it because you were a child at the time, that's not your fault. But please stop the historical revisionism.

First they came for the legal immigrants. But the government said they were criminals, so I believed them with no evidence and it definitely won’t escalate so I have nothing to worry about. -American Proverb

Holy shit, just learned that RFK Jr's "Children's Health Defense" website made a fake CDC page with false anti-vax information linking vaccines to autism. They took down the page after the NY Times started asking questions:

The IRS owes me like $10,000 and they keep making me verify my family's identity over and over and every new request takes weeks. I'm never going to see my money. Fuck you Elon, you fucking piece of shit. And everyone who voted for him.

A million bajillion times this. "But it has a great lesson!" I am 43 years old and have healthy adult relationships. If you're in your 40s and still need books to tell you how to be a good person, you've had 40 years to figure that shit out already—no book is gonna help.

Olivia's #iHunt is a compelling and exciting universe - one every fan of gothic horror should want to explore. I was fortunate enough to review a script she wrote a while back for a movie based in the setting. The idea of this as a playable #ttrpg is the most exciting thing I've heard THIS YEAR.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

You had me at "kill a landlord." I'd definitely be down for some catharsis in axing a fictional version of IRL evil. Quoth fellow Hunter Big D, in conversation with a vampire landlord, "HOUSING SHOULD NOT BE A COMMODITY! [...] AND YOU ARE A PARASITE IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD." Boosting! #ttrpgs

it you're coming down "right smack dab in the middle"'of the extrajudicial kidnapping of people based on flimsy at best accusations, you're decidedly not "in the middle." if you're coming down "right smack dab in the middle" of punishing students exercising 1st amendment rights, no you're not.

Over at Patreon (and DrivethruRPG and Itch) we've dropped ANOTHER #iHunt: Dollars & Draculas adventure. This one's about a blowback scene—that is, when the supernatural comes back to bite our hunters in the ass. Wanna kill a landlord meat monster? Of course you do. www.patreon.com/posts/126723...
