This is still April Break! I'm not gonna write a union manifesto on Saturday night, I'm gonna watch anime.

During negotiations a union will point to other nearby areas because the districts/companies compete. When every union does this, all workers benefit. Capitalist structures compete, communal structures collaborate.

Our liaison to the larger regionwide union is so peppy and fun. Then he'll randomly be like, "yeah, I fought in the bottling wars. Killed a floor manager with my bare hands."

Last I'll say is: I have been a part of 3 union contract negotiations. It is the one part of my life where I don't fuck around. I will admit to being an unserious weirdo in other areas, but I am actually experienced on the topic of balancing the needs of an individual union and overall solidarity.

With proper accessibility features I could imagine Blue Prince getting in my top 10 puzzle games. List as of now: 1. The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna 2. Obra Dinn 3. Outer Wilds 4. Tunic 5. Baba is You 6. Portal 2 7. Fez 8. Lorelei and the Laser Eyes 9. La-Mulana 2 10. Chants of Sennaar

Getting suckered into being annoyed by a Will Stancil post...ugh, need to go on a walk.

What promotes the interests of teachers is unionization! That is where we have the leverage to increase wages and get benefits. I promise, promise, promise convincing people that teaching is middle class will not do that.

The devs say they are working on it in the game itself, but I'm not sure I've played a game that more desperately needed accessibility features than Blue Prince.

I'm riding the train. 🚆

Yes, birthright citizenship must be protected at all costs. It is the cornerstone of our Democracy. We do have to destroy the concept of citizenship, though. As an idea, it will always inevitably be used as a cudgel.

This is the crossover I want.

It is such a small moment in Nona the Ninth, but when The Angel tells Nona to wait in the other room my heart just broke. Absolutely everything has fallen apart and her first thought is just "a kid shouldn't have to see this."

Rain? Water comes comes down from the sky? Get real.

Some puzzle games are "squirrel" some are "fox" and some are "parakeet"

Hegseth is a third-rate bettor with a fourth rate betting site.

My father always told me, "Kid, be an unreliable narrator."

The windows do, indeed, break.

Wait, is this a trans thing? I knew that soundtrack by heart.

Things like 1000xRESIST, The Locked Tomb, and Apocalypse Hotel were designed to make it look like I've lost my mind. But Bang Bang Fire, Hot Sauce, and Fly Catcher Robot are the most important characters ever.

But, like, how do you read all of the Locked Tomb so far and not see the reconciliation with Hot Sauce as the most important event of the whole series?

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs.

The thing I love in Apothecary Diaries is that Maomao will uncover an entire criminal conspiracy through being like "hmm, the wood is rotted here..." Then will get hit over the head with the most basic idea imaginable and be like "Who's to say? Not me!"

Can't post the next screenshot of Apothecary Diaries because I would never want to spoil someone on it, even if the last episode totally confirmed who a certain someone really is...just realized that covers two different plot threads...

Apothecary Diaries sure knows how to instantly fill me with sorrow!

Quack doctor is so kind, willing to talk with a simpleton like Maomao's dad.

Massachusetts politicians should actively impede federal law enforcement at every turn. No more "we did not coordinate" while the government keeps grabbing people. Nullification and obstruction.

Apocalypse Hotel makes me so happy, but I am terrified it is hiding a dark turn in there somewhere.

This does feel like the end stage of people's brains breaking after 9/11
