The #SaveAct has not gone away. In fact, yam tits says passing it supersedes *everything else*.
Because it's not about election integrity, but about election control.
Yes, we have a billion things to worry about, but don't stop calling your MoC about this one.

West coast friends missing Big Bad Con, Go Play is the only other con I’ve been to with similar values and spirit. It’s a small event that punches up up up. Buy a membership so we can play games together in Seattle this July goplaynw.org/membership-d...
One of my favorite indie cons. I hope to go each year. Hoping to go this year as well.
Go Play NW Membership Drive 2026. February 13th through March 20th. $6,800 raised of $12,000 (USD) goal. 56% of goal. 45 memberships. 6 days left. Current goals: Base funding for GPNW Seattle Summer at $12,000! Help us make our in-person event happen!
Real talk: there is a very real likelihood that Go Play NW can't happen this year
Less than a week left in our Membership Drive, aka early ticket sales and raising money to hold the event, and we're just over halfway to making our *base* goal. If we can't hit that goal, we can't pay for the venue
Any president promising to ensure their party "will win every election for a long time” is trying to rig upcoming elections. #ProtectVotingRights Call your electeds 202-224-3121 & tell them to BLOCK the #SaveAct which will disenfranchise millions of Americans from #GOTV

#TransRightsAreWomensRights #TransRightsAreHumanRights & I’m so often trembling with rage that this even needs to be said. Any person who has ever said trans & non-binary people don’t have Every Single Right that cis people do can get chronic UTIs RightTFNow. You wanted this to be about pee, right?
Just checked the bank account before heading to the grocery and oooooooof. A payment we thought wouldn't come out did, in fact, come out and there's basically a crater there now.
If you can spare some $$, we'd really appreciate it.

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.
Fuckery afoot in Virginia.
It’s day 9 of Trump’s reckless Iran War—and he’s now spent over $9.5 BILLION of your tax dollars. That’s more than USDA spends every year, in every school, on free breakfasts for students in America.
Alright!
We are now officially enrolling for the @resistanceschool.bsky.social course "World Cup and The Politics of Football 101"!

Vamos!

I'm a big fan of @karenattiah.bsky.social's work, & this is a good opportunity to delve into the connection between football & politics.
a four-panel stick-figure cartoon panel one: three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. panel two: the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested. panel three: as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-" panel four phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."
If you are a retailer swing by and see @segedy.bsky.social, we have some sweet deals for GAMA attendees involving maybe not paying for shipping.
Your daily reminder that #TransRightsAreWomensRights #TransRightsAreHumanRights and we should #ProsecuteTheEpsteinPedofiles instead of bombing other countries and trying to deny people healthcare.

Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you don’t want to purchase it).
feeling compelled to post this new yorker reject from years ago, for some reason
If you haven’t called your Senators & urged them to stop the SAVE Act in its tracks, there’s still time. If you have called, call again. #ProtectVotingRights

Five years ago, almost to the hour, a friend told me Morgan Ellis had died. It feels like yesterday and it feels like 10 years ago and it also feels impossible. His death affected me profoundly, but I should've let his life affect me more, as I wrote about in this blog post. #RIP
Due to Super Bowl LXI taking place in Los Angeles in 2027, Strategicon will be moving Orccon from Presidents’ day Weekend to Febuary 5-8.
Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.
BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.
We're almost halfway through our first day of raising money for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund over at twitch.tv/rollplusbond BUT the stream's not the only way you can show your support. We also have a game bundle with over 100 games for sale at itch.io/b/3531/roll-...
This 30-year-old transgender man, who can’t swim, jumped into Lake Michigan after a wind gust blew a baby in a stroller into the freezing water.
He’s being called a hero. But now he has medical expenses, and people are donating to a fundraiser to support him.

Fun fact, US passports did not have a gender marker until 1977, when a rising trend in unisex fashion started freaking the government out.
MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now.
They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.
GO DONATE.

Video proof this really happened!
the overseer of project 2025 is telling you out loud that every inch you cede on trans rights is part of the plan to create a white christian fascist state
Really really suffering, and the more widespread this information is the better.
