Hi, my name's Townsend and as of today, I'm a published writer! "The Ballad of Black Calchas" is my debut short story, an epic and tragic tale of magic and piracy. I'd appreciate if you gave it a read here at Electric Spec magazine! electricspec.com/Volume20/Iss...

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

"Billionaires have way too much fucking money" and "billionaires have nowhere near the amount of money they're valued at and it's frankly a bit embarrassing" are both simultaneously true because they can leverage their own ego for free money from a complicit system.

Lucifer.

we should all be pissed off at this btw. if not because sex work is legitimate work and should be treated with respect, then because you should be concerned at attempts to gentrify online spaces as pretext to court investors and force out minorities so those spaces can become part of a portfolio.

Gonna play #Pathfinder tonight! Sort of org play but sort of not, so I can go wilder with the character options and play a joke build that been in my head for a while: a giant awakened hermit crab that made a home out of some drowned knight’s breastplate. I love this game. #pathfinder2e

I guess they’re trying to rebrand Ai chatbots as “Agents” now? Because what could be more trustworthy and dependable than the operative of some sort of spying organization?
