Correction: The Cthulhu Awakens Bundle of Holding ends in 12 hours: bundleofholding.com/presents/Cth...

bundleofholding.comCthulhu Awakens BundleAdventurer! This all-new Cthulhu Awakens Bundle presents .PDF ebooks for Cthulhu Awakens, the standalone Adventure Game Engine tabletop game from Green Ronin Publishing of Cthulhu Mythos roleplaying across the Weird Century. As we liberated the secrets of chemistry, atomic power, genetics, and digital information, Yithian agents started operating stolen bodies to engineer history to their liking. Dagon worship moved from seaside villages to self-help paperbacks, endlessly hawked on TV and then the Web. Mi-go harvest the brains of public intellectuals. In this AGE of wars, the broken atom, subverted technologies, and the horrors of social media, you cut through the lies spread by cults and power brokers. Whether you're a 1920s gangster who left the mob when the bodies wouldn't stop moving, or a modern influencer confronting very strange sponsors, you dare to step through the Corridor and transport your consciousness to other times, following the trail of rising strangeness across the world and ultimately confronting terrifying revelations across the Weird Century.

Dinner Tonight: Kasha with Squash and Pomegranate Not a photogenic meal but I had the ingredients in my pantry and it came together deliciously. I used pistachios instead of pecans and have no regrets. This would be great as a side dish with a meat course, too. cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1017...

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Hard not to notice that Democrats who are doing the best are the ones who are leaving this whole civility-and-norms, we-go-high, we-need-a-strong-Republican-Party bullshit behind and are simply giving Republicans exactly what they all ought to get at all times, which is undisguised contempt.

Every day a new atrocity.

4/ Fernando Vasquez, an 18-year-old citizen, was on break from work when agents chased and handcuffed him, then put him in their truck. After realizing their mistake, the agents left the teen alone in the woods, with no way to get home. Then they threw his ID out of the truck.

Dear people at #FantasyCon who are looking up our books on Amazon. The paper editions are cheaper here than online. The ebooks are the same price but Amazon doesn’t get a cut so the author gets more money.

I think people should listen to what the administration trying to bring back spectacle lynchings, race riots, and middle passage-esque deportation voyages are trying to tell you about themselves. bsky.app/profile/bren...

Susan Collins is showing just how out of touch she is. “I spent a whole year without health insurance…in ‘94” That was 3 decades ago, Susan, when insurance was $1500 annually… Thanks to Susan’s vote that helped pass Trump’s murderous budget bill, premiums are $1500 a month now for some folks.

Our sweetheart Selkie von Snoot passed this afternoon. She was diagnosed with cancer at the end of August and her first oncology appointment was booked for Thursday, but we had less time with her than we hoped. She was the goodest of girls, sweet tempered and gentle. She will be missed terribly.

If Trump just takes money appropriated by Congress for a specific purpose & seizes it to use it for an entirely different purpose, what is the point of having a Congress or appropriating money for anything? I’m sure the Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins must be concerned.

If an internationally-wanted war criminal (whose forces have killed Americans) comes to US soil, attacks Americans (including the mayor of the largest city), and then says "Remember the beepers" in reference to a terrorist attack he committed — how can that be taken as anything other than a threat?

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social

Bibi Netanyahu at the UNGA, in front of a half-empty chamber: "Do you remember the beepers? Remember? Remember them?!" [pulls out a beeper from his pocket] "Well, I can tell you this. Hezbollah certainly remembers them!"
