[A girl with long black hair and a professor who looks like Megan stand together. The girl points to Cueball in the distance.] Girl: Professor, that man claims the earth is 6,000 years old! Professor: So? Just use your head and don't concern yourself overmuch with what other people think. [Cueball is gone and the girl is no longer pointing but just talking to the professor.] Girl: But he says the fossils in the mountains were put there in a flood! Professor: Well, evidence suggests that they were not. Girl: But he-- [A mountain landscape with blue sky to the left with white clouds, gray clod cover to the right and gray mountains below. The most prominent peak is just right of the middle, but there are 14 small and large peaks all in all.] Professor (off-panel): A million people can call the mountains a fiction, yet it need not trouble you as you stand atop them. [The girl throws her hands in the air while the professor just looks at her.] Girl: But he believes the silliest things! Professor: So? [The girl has her arms down again and looks on the talking professor.] Professor: The universe doesn't care what you believe. Professor: The wonderful thing about science is that it doesn't ask for your faith, it just asks for your eyes. [The girl and professor talks.] Girl: But he's a US senator! Professor: Ah, then yes, we do have a bit of a situation.

Why does this comic keep getting more relevant.

This is important if you don't want visa or MasterCard to tell you how to spend your money.

worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

Re: the DOGE disaster, there was literally no question that this was happening as it was happening. Careless coding bros with our country's most sensitive data, no vetting, no guardrails, and incompetence indistinguishable from malice.

Excerpt of a top-down style battlemap for D&D, depicting a circular altar of grey stone, surmounted by four statues of armored figures bearing flaming swords. On a stone shelf beneath them, followers have set blood-spattered red candles in offering. Art assets by Forgotten Adventures.

In the temple to the war-god Tempus in #Waterdeep, stands his Altar of Glory. Warriors take candles anointed with their own blood and burn them before the icon of Tempus Foehammer, lighting the candles off of the swirling magical fires from the effigy swords. Assets by @forgotten-adventures.net

we are weeks away from 'Trump attempts to make horse a Senator' and the only thing stopping him is that he is too much of a sociopath to form an attachment to animals

The book outrage by Ellen jones. The subtitle is HOW TO FIGHT FOR LGBTQ+ LIVES

Absolutely incredible book by @ellenjones.bsky.social

A stark and crystal clear look at LGBTQ+ issues and struggle across many facets of society, with a lot of things we can all do and highlighting people already doing the work! Brava! 👏🏻

👇🏽

It's been truly incredible watching this happen in real time. But, of course, the truth is that all reactionary nostalgia of this sort is consumerism-saturated nonsense. It's all aesthetics, things you can buy, etc.

Pixar has had movies subjects like: Death & grieving. Depression, anxiety & emotional regulation. Family trauma. Childhood ending. The collapse of reality as you knew it. And suddenly just the existence of LGBTQ+ people in a movie is too hard for kids to deal with? Ok.

We told you this is what they were doing. Now here's the proof that this regime and "DOGE" in specific used "AI" tools to summarize and flag grants and grant applications as "DEI," based on a list of keywords. And this "ctrl+f w/ extra steps" bullshit completely circumvented congressional oversight.

Sadly, it's not black folks you have to fuckin convince. Black folks know he's a fucking snake. Please focus on your Liberal ass white folks, please.

Kthx.
