There's a hidden imperative in this, by the way: Given Friedman's law, "fan bases" do not automatically become "communities." No matter how wholesome and friendly the original (small, niche) fan base is, *effort* must be put in to maintain that as the fan base grows. This is about Critical Role.

In my opinion it is bad that seemingly every 55-year-old sexually frustrated man discovered you can get steroids in the mail from the internet at roughly the same exact time and I also think maybe people aren't talking about the societal impacts of that enough.

Epic made provably incorrect statements about the game’s content, refused to provide details supporting their claims, and has not shared their claimed AO IARC certificate, which normally includes a link for the developer to appeal. They do not ‘love that studio’, they have effectively ghosted us

But… do you know how mad Tim was when he realized there wasn’t any actual child porn in the game and so it didn’t support his political beliefs? Disclaimer: Tim Sweeney does not enjoy child porn.

Sign of Life.

Don’t fall for it. We’ll be barraged with horrible news for 4+ years. You will see your favorite shows be replaced with slop starring Tim Allen and Rosanne type bootlickers. Commercials recruiting you for ICE with Dana White ranting over it. You’ll forget this discount as they jack up prices 50%

Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches

Why do you tremble? What you fear the most is only a taste of a sweet nectar.

This is amazing, in a horrible way

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

Fuck I miss the Baja blast girl from Twitter The one who did roller skates Miss u sm 😔✊

Bishop for the Chess series i've been doing on and off

Meredith has always been a G, but it's still exceptionally weird and very refreshing hearing from a tech exec who can see through all of this AI bullshit for what it is at its foundation: a backdoor surveillance tool.

All I see here is top notch ball security, elite contact balance, a willingness to grind out tough yards btwn the tackles, and surprising burst after he finds daylight

NEW — Kelvin Membreño will be deported to El Salvador by ICE tomorrow. He’s the birth father of three US citizen daughters and has become an important part of their lives. Here their adoptive mother makes a last ditch plea to let him stay in the same country as the girls. A gutting guest essay:

This man willingly took that photo in that suit at that venue, It Could Not Be Me

Happy #EarthDay! 8 years ago, as we held the largest day of science advocacy in history, I wrote in the @theguardian.com: "Why March for Science? Because when it is attacked, only the elite benefit." These words hold true today. When we stand up for science, we stand up for justice and equality.

Look I get it's a meme, but do support the Expedition 33 team. It's a humble studio from Montpelier and they could use all the support instead of buying yet another remaster of an old game to chase nostalgia

Gaslight, mob boss, gate keep

“Finally, the perfect coworker: smart, beautiful, and capable of centering *my* feelings after I sexually harass her.”
