I had the privilege of teaching officers of the U.S. military for three years, and I just want to say that they take their jobs much more seriously than these assholes and (without presuming to speak on their behalf) probably hate this shit.

Prelim talks for me to start running a fresh 5/5.5e D&D game at Local Game Store (likely Thursdays) have begun!

Saw this in the wild and it reminded me of all y'all. Teaching (and life in general) keeps me busy, but I still think of y'all π₯°β₯οΈ
It's like the bank rush scene in IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE but he's trying to explain that all our money is in ExxonMobil's house, and ConocoPhillips' house, and ...
It was 5 years ago today that #WynonnaEarp "Hell Raisin' Good Time" (4x08) premiered.
Halloween in Purgatory, big Earp sister episode β€οΈ, great #Wayhaught scenes, sad to hear about what happened to Robin.
At this point it's barely even a boycott, I've just stopped thinking of Target as a place to buy the things I used to buy at Target.
I think enjoying some comics and a cup of tea is peak woke and I endorse it utterly.

A HAZY NOIRE STREET WITH A NEON SIGN BECKONING TO A SHADOWY FIGURE IN A TRENCHCOAT: FOOD
A RIVER FLOWING THROUGH A CITY AT NIGHT. A STRANGE FIGURE LURKS OVER A WOMAN SITTING ON A PARK BENCH OVERLOOKING THE WATER
To anyone who hasn't seen Dark City (1998) before but likes The Matrix (1999):
GO WATCH DARK CITY (1998) BUT ONLY THE DIRECTOR'S CUT. THE THEATRICAL CUT SPOILS ALL THE TWISTS AT THE START IT'S BAD.
ALSO DON'T LOOK UP ANYTHING ABOUT IT BEFOREHAND. GO IN BLIND TRUST ME.
Strongly encourage all academics, novelists, reporters, bloggers, whatever to just email this account and state that you want to opt out of this idiocy.
Overload them with emails and make them regret they ever tried this shit.

When a franchise goes on long enough, it stops being inspired by other art and starts being made by people who are inspired by the franchise.
Andor was inspired by world war 2 history and spy thrillers, so it feels fresh again
Hello friends, I need help getting tested for learning disabilities so I can get accommodations so I can pass two math classes and be able to graduate and keep my scholarship. Please share! Thank you! www.gofundme.com/f/help-emily...
there was also a Stanford study that found that a surge in AI slop by lazy people actually created significantly more work for others who had to decipher and correct it
this "I'm being efficient" (but not really) vibes well with the American obsession with artifice and appearing productive
i bet this shit sounds magical if you're fucking stupid

Itβs okay to have a casual interest. Even as a woman.
Or a black person.
You can just like the stuff without having to develop an encyclopedic knowledge in order to fend off gatekeepers.
How @carlquintanilla.bsky.social has stayed sane all these years is a mystery to me.
The two greatest and most important writing hires in comic historyβAlan Moore to write Swamp Thing and Chris Claremont to write X-Menβwere both made by the same guy: Len Wein
We tend to think of Wein as a writer and creator (and he was very good at both), but his real legacy is as an editor.
I've been busy: here's another article on what is going on with the US, Iran, and foreign policy.

me and the other scheming viziers are wearing shoes gifted to us by the king that are way too big. we look ridiculous. the whole court is laughing at us behind our backs. honestly this is a pretty low point for us, the scheming viziers
With what's going on with Subscribestar, it's a good moment to remind you all of something:
Free speech also includes speech you don't agree with, and freedom of artistic expression also includes art you find horrible or disgusting.
And if you go: "Yeah I agree! However-"
Then you don't agree!
People shouldnβt have to use klarna for their bills and/or groceries.
Fair play, 'the mad emperor started compulsively buying shoes for his court, guessing their foot size & his courtiers were too scared not to wear them even when they didn't fit' is some classic, on the nose End Days Of The Empire stuff
"Don't make 'em all straight. Some of 'em have little kinks in 'em. Just like people."

Well, ain't that the truth! π
Grammarly declined my request to interview CEO Shishir Mehrotra today. But it told me that in response to criticisms, it will allow experts to opt out of the feature by emailing expertoptout@superhuman.com.
I've decided that instead of wasting my own time to see if Grammarly has stolen my name and writing for use their business, I'd just email them to opt out and make them waste some time cleaning up their own goddamn mess.

βHeyβ came before βhi,β and βhi' came before βhello.β
βHiβ is most likely a variant of βhey.β
βHelloβ is not related to either.
Goodbye.
I never thought I would see this. States are legislating unenforceable laws that violate privacy and decency and basic human dignity, targeting Trans people over a bunch of horseshit lies and ignorance.
So some of the best people are leaving because of the worst, and the silence of the rest.
3/
So please, if you can, Iβd love to have this thread list pro-Trans everything. Creators, craftspeople, writers, artists, activistsβ¦if you or someone you know deserves some celebrating, bring it the fuck on, okay?
Post links if you can.
Buy stuff if you can.
They hate when people stand up.
Is oil just fantasy
Crude depots burning
Choking tehran in misery
Here come the drones
Look up to the sky and see
Iβm the president
Its all my fault you see
Dow goes up dow goes down
Little high little low
Any where the polls go
Midterms gonna suck for me
For me
How is the rate of fresh hells somehow accelerating?
Did someone fall asleep on the fresh-hell-generator lever?
The thing that I don't think they've fully grasped is because we've had two nearly three generations of adults who have been vaccinated, people are going to realize pretty quickly shit is bad when suddenly their kids are dying.
