Why is every Quest Diagnostics location in a liminal space somewhere outside of the third dimension completely divorced from its street address

That is an insane summary of his actions which, to date, have included coercing doctors to drop their trans patients, confiscating our passports, censoring any mention of us across the federal government, purging us from the Defense Department, and forcing trans women into men's prisons

The federal government is methodically hunting and rooting out LGBTQIA+ people from service (with the help of alt right trolls) and this is the best NYT could muster. It’s pathetic and dangerous.

Leading Democrats have almost completely ignored Trump's efforts to wipe trans people off the face of the earth. www.discourseblog.com/p/democrats-...

I've made a bit of a big addition to my Arcade Archives spreadsheet- a list of Taito and Namco arcade games that shows what collections they've been in and which ones have Arcade Archives releases. I hope you find it useful! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

DEI outpolling Congressional Democrats by a mile...

what if you fed old games to the ai machine to keep them modern is just the natural endpoint of games culture’s total lack of respect for old games as intentional works

Think I just got a migraine so bad it cured my cough? Bodies are fucking weird

Going to be really clear: This account is a distinctly unsafe space for enbyphobes and people who blame nonbinary folk for "costing us allies." Fix your hearts or die. Hell, fix your hearts and die.

Hey what's up. I'm Caelyn. I wrote some stuff for Caves of Qud, but did you know I did so as a contractor? I'm struggling to keep my other projects going during crisis, but it's very important that I keep up work on things that aren't for Freehold Games too.

AI when forced to confront a man's love for his beautiful transsexual wife

Look I hate AI as much as the next gal, but it's hard to argue that a glorified markov chain wouldn't be preferable to the majority of the stuff printed in the NY Times.

Ok posting my surgery fundraiser to bsky finally.

I just mis-targeted my Sleep spell and now my entire front row are having a nap and the hobgoblins are tearing them apart XD

Got around to Star Waspir in UFO50 and:

NEW VIDEO OUT NOW!!!! I'm talking about Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure and Pulse. LINK IN THE REPLIES, TIME TO GET SPOOKY

Did you know Chantal Akerman made an 80s mall musical? It's as good as it sounds, go watch it

This x1000. The best action games feature tons of enemies that die in one hit so you're constantly making progress & exploding stuff Remember st.2 of Metal Slug 3? It sucks balls cos zombies take forever to die. At least it looked great though & wasn't 'small sprites in large empty space' blandness

Lot of people posting an op ed in Politico from a venture capitalist this morning as if God Himself came down from on high and gave us insight into the _real_ economy for the very first time and wouldn't you know it God found that the economy is in the precise state that I personally thought it was.

Elon’s idiot “de-dupe/SQL” gaffe is the “cheat at POE2” rake all over again. It’s only relevant to people who have some kind of expertise in the subject and those people are exactly who would see right through it. I wonder if rocket scientists and electric car engineers knew all along

2666 living rent free in my brain more and more every day tbh.

LET’S GO!

Given that it is now well established that there are bots on this site farming engagement through bad faith posting, maybe don't retweet every single one of them on to my timeline with a "look at this bozo". You're making fun of a robot while doing the exact thing it was programmed to get you to do

If you cannot call it what it is when all in a week: a government removes every mention of a group of people, destroys information about them en masse, bans their discussion in schools, restricts their ability to travel and starts seizing and refusing their official identification, when will you?

I don't WANT to preach this morning -- JD Vance is not a serious person, he lacks the intellectual chops to do this kind of work, so rewarding his thirst with response is undignified -- but the Spirit demands at least a brief bit of sermonizing

All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool

Surreal being a trans person on this website this week. Every single one of my trans friends is making emergency preparations in case Trump bans our health care while fighting off existential dread and depression, and 99% of the cis people i follow seemingly have nothing to say about the trans EOs.

you can't simultaneously believe "the cruelty is the point" and "anti trans bigotry is a distraction" btw. those are literally 100% contradictory beliefs. some of y'all seem to not really approach your own political beliefs with any amount of seriousness or intellectual rigor

If I hear another cis person praise Sarah McBride I swear to god I will ruin their next party. I will grab the aux cord and play Ken Nordine's "Olive" on a loop. I will replace all the snacks with kettle popcorn chips. I will cast Stan Brakhage films to to every screen. Don't think that I won't

hi, cis folks! meet S.9. it's the senate sports ban for trans athletes—a big step to something making trump’s executive order federal law, which is much harder to undo. short call scripts for dem & GOP senators ⬇️. if you said you'd stand with trans folks, it's time.🧵

"Things might be tough but it's great for artists! They'll create more!" You might not believe me but going through a lifetime's worth of stress Every Single Week for years and years- is actually not the optimal set of circumstances that inspires artists to create
