This year, #Hrothmarket is doing something a bit different this time around. We're partnering with the Rainbow Railroad charity, a group which helps LGBTQIA+ get out of hostile locations. So join us in helping a cause this pride month with this #Hrothmarket.

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

It always comes back to this. Whatever pretensions we may have about the political system under which we live, Palestine is the issue on which every contradiction unravels, each hypocrisy is laid bare, and all values are rendered contingent and expendable—with our leaders' willing participation.

Please read this thread if you're going out. Be careful.

With the easy challenges out of the way, it’s time to focus on some of the harder ones. pressstarttodiscuss.com/astro-bot-pa... YouTube Link: youtu.be/HGH9BbpmcT0

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Leave it to the Democrats to always find a way to be against the common man when all logic and reason suggests they should want to be on our side unconditionally.

I sadly have to agree with this review of Blue Prince. It's why I ended my run shortly after reaching Room 46.

Post-game cleanup seems like a great excuse to tell some stories while we’re playing Astro Bot. pressstarttodiscuss.com/astro-bot-pa... YouTube Link: youtu.be/yWc2AzNkP9c

I cannot stress how obvious this is if you have a small to medium sized website and can see its traffic and socials. For the comparative size of Bluesky to X it’s a gargantuan difference.

Publications should either stop credulously reporting on self-serving predictions like this entirely or absolutely hold execs feet to the fire when a year later they’re still just offering vague promises about the imminent future. I’m tired of seeing this free PR given to serial liars.

NEW: What went wrong with Dragon Age: The Veilguard? Why was the writing so tonally inconsistent? Why did it feel so shallow? Why were there so few choices? Really, after ten years of turbulence, it was a miracle that anything came out at all. This is the story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Commission for Tsirko Color Sketch. Thank you so much!

This is how. Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

“You guys need to be peaceful like MLK! People treated him nicely cause he was so peaceful!” Sooo, this is how white America viewed MLK in the 60’s. Also he was still shot and killed by a white supremacist and people cheered when he died.

At least I had enough tomes on hand for my first Phantom Weapon. And I have to admit, it looks pretty sick.

YOU HAVE TO PAY TOMESTONES FOR THE FIRST PHANTOM WEAPONS!? YOU DON'T GET THE FIRST ONE FOR FREE! ARE YOU SHITTING ME!?

Posting this 1967 Birmingham News editorial cartoon for all the people who don't realize that this is how MLK was viewed by a big chunk of white America.

Assuming this passes (and given what additional gains we received, it very well might); what's even more important than the protections we secured is MAINTAINING them alongside the ones that weren't guaranteed. It's a far better deal, but it isn't perfect - & we need to make sure we stay ATTENTIVE.

I love this Rocket Raccoon design sm

It's frustrating that all my bosses and co-workers are drinking the "AI" Kool-Aid. Even more frustrating is knowing that anywhere else I go in this damn industry is likely going to also be enamored with the plagiarism machine.

Squarely within the Astro Bot post-game, it's time to start collecting everything we missed. pressstarttodiscuss.com/astro-bot-pa... YouTube Link: youtu.be/24FxdQS-9xw

something the "don't give them ammo" types never seem to be able to absorb is that cops and various federal forces can, have, and do pretend to be protesters and will start shit for both short term (excuse given to police forces to arrest protesters) and long term (propaganda) purposes
