I'm here to look at beautiful wargaming model paintjobs, follow up on sci-fantasy fiction discourse, and engage with TTRPG enthustiasts. I will block with no remorse any nutjob, especially the right-wing or TERF kind, or any annoying person at all.

Not great that a sitting Congressman can just say shit like this with zero consequences.

Images published by Iranian state media show remnants of a US Tomahawk missile at a girls’ school in Minab.
It’s not possible to independently verify the provenance of the remnants from this imagery alone. But Bellingcat previously detailed how a Tomahawk missile hit a structure next to the school.

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

Suicides increased fivefold when adolescents on the waitlist were told they would be permanently waitlisted.

45 kids and untold relatives of these kids are now grieving.

And still they are like, but wait, we don't have enough evidence.

It’s not quite β€˜have someone come in with a gun’ but β€˜if you’re not sure where a scene is going have a bunch of capitalist giants fight a crab’ is also a maxim to live by.

Tried doing a limited palette paint here, but cheated in the green for some extra contrast.

the U.S. military has been undermanned for years, we are absolutely unready for any kind of meaningful conflict. i imagine the regime will back out before they try to force a draft. it would not go well for them.

I think worrying specifically about the censorship of information is maybe a 20th century framework. Today it’s far more effective for bad actors trying to suppress the truth to just flood the zone with bullshit than it is to actively suppress information they find politically inconvenient.

Yes, constant fight mode goblins are a thing on social media, and they feel threatened and lash when questioned, because they care deeply about their engagement numbers, more than any Politics.

They clearly committed a war crime, but we've been watching an active genocide for years at this point, as well as watching the US commit *other* war crimes in the Caribbean in addition to murdering both citizens & immigrants on our own soil & no one with any kind of power is doing jack shit so

me: posts an analysis of various revolutions that were built from local councils, including the so-far uncontested fact that the Russian revolution started that way before Lenin consolidated power and disenfranchised the soviets.

Not sorry to say, killing people for an imperialistic regime is a fucked up choice, also, A CHOICE. They make the world worse for other poor people, and it's on them.

i know the "let people enjoy things" approach to media is annoying, but there's a difference between being a tactful hater and going reply to reply being a miserable dork because they like something you don't.

Same thing happened with McVeigh and OKC. The media simply did not want to acknowledge the fact that he was deeply rooted in far-right militias with connections to the neo-nazi movement at the time.

schools are never valid military targets, on or off base

if someone bombed a DoD school in Okinawa and killed a bunch of American 4th graders, that would be a war crime.

The murder of Iranian schoolchildren is a war crime.
