Shout out to the lady at our showing who got a big pop with a well-timed “What the fuck is happening?” at a pivotal moment but demerits for trying it again later and bombing. Flew a little too close to the sun on that one

Weird to say for a doc but gotta see it in a packed theater if you can. Audience reactions immensely add to the experience

WotC, you're up against a bunch of people who successfully organize roleplaying sessions -- do you have any idea how hard that is?? a union is nothing you're about to get smoked dude

United Wizards of the Coast - CWA@uwotc-official.bsky.social

Yesterday, Wizards informed us that it doesn’t intend to voluntarily recognize the D&D or Studio X units of our union ahead of a vote. We remain committed to creating a workplace focused on wellness, transparency, and collaboration by winning our coming election.

I have be on X to be part of the AI tech scene conversation. Which is not at all a red flag to me about that industry and the people who participate in it

lots of people are saying that the racism app with the child porn generator owned by the world's richest man is better than it's ever been actually

The new GTA will be $80, but games were going for as high as $60 back in 1996. That's about $127 in today's dollars. This tracks because video games today are only two-thirds as good as they were 30 years ago.

Trump: "I could've done very bad things to Hillary Clinton. I could've done very very bad things to Joe Biden. I could've done very bad things to Barack Hussein Obama ... I can do whatever I want, if I want."

It seems quaint now that we do all our banking and race science there, but, nevertheless, it's true: at one time, people mostly wrote jokes on Twitter. 10 years ago, I wrote one about an old asshole and it kinda changed my life. Not his, though. www.cnn.com/2026/10/01/u...

Jesus, can you hear me? Good, the comms are working. Now, you're gonna need to run if you want to evade those Roman soldiers. Hold down A to sprint. Go ahead and try it. ... Good work! You just might be the savior yet. Now pick up that AR-15 and let's do some target practice.

Please consider following gok here, on youtube, on Instagram and everywhere while this hopefully gets sorted. They are the best. And I'll talk about this on stream, I have a lot to say about twitch Moderation and what the platform deems acceptable.

The Go Off Kings@gooffkings.bsky.social

Well, we're suspended from Twitch for (???) days. And we don't know what we did to get suspended. And Twitch won't tell us. So. Pretty cool! Thank you Twitch. Also we took down the VOD channel for the time being just in case that counts as "ban evasion." Anyway. Hopefully we'll be back soon???

This is Taylor Lorenz’s every day but for real. So maybe keep the jokes to yourself!!!

One quick safety tip as we get deeper into Ren Faire season: yelling “Hey look it’s Brennan Lee Mulligan!” is the equivalent of yelling “fire” in a crowded theater and will get you kicked out and permanently banned

sure, it's a nazi website with an AI child porn generator that is owned by the world's richest man who did a sieg heil at the president's inauguration, but at least they got the quibi guy

Ladies and gentlemen, we have "cancelled."

this is the kind conversation you overhear at a coffee shop and you and your partner make that "are you hearing these assholes?" face

Rachel Gilmore@rachelgilmore.bsky.social

Wow….wild to hear Taylor say she’s glad Elon took over Twitter and that it’s better than ever. I mean, the unconstrained growth of the far right on there? Musk’s thumb seemingly on the algorithm’s scale during elections? The impact on democracy?

I think we need more small, dense, local hardware stores filled with tons of little useful shit and shelves made out of 2x4. I need a wizened old man who knows exactly which hex bit I need and a 3-way convo with a stranger about paint types. Steal the Home Depot theme and give it to Brett’s Hardware

9/11 is a great day to reread my viral Seinfeld spec and to remember I’m one of the most talented TV writers available to write for your show. I have $225k in student loans and my family is about to pay OOP for my dad’s post-stroke rehab, so you’d better believe I’m gonna give you my best!
