It's Chaos, Be CREEPY

Stacked the flu and COVID shots yesterday and got away with only a slightly sore arm and some fatigue. Win.

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

Trump’s presidency is a wealth transfer from the bottom to the top

No you see AI won’t replace jobs it will simply make the jobs easier

Bears repeating: the house philosopher for half of Silicon Valley and JD Vance is a racist who hates democracy

After posting the above about an hour ago, I've heard the sad news that Walter Koenig has died. I loved him in Star Trek, but it was his performance in Babylon 5 that still chills me. A fabulous actor who will be much missed.

Walter Koenig (1936 - 2026) "I am proud of what I am. I believe in what I do. Can you say that?" #StarTrek

Oh no. 💔

The Democrats’ focus on affordability seems to be a winning strategy. But we mustn’t lose sight of the moral squalor at the core of the Trump regime and the necessity of ending it. My latest for The Guardian. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/oct/23/trump-moral-squalor

Something I wish more people would realize.

AI technology is deeply damaging people.

My first 5 ttrpgs in the order they were played. 1. Melee/Wizard (The Fantasy Trip) 2. White Box/Holmes D&D 3. AD&D 4. Traveller 5. Call of Cthulhu

Yes. Not even once.

Jumping onto the Bioware art train 💜 There is so much in my work I can dedicate to Dragon Age and Mass Effect. Both series have helped through my struggles with chronic illness and have given me heaps of inspiration to even continue creating. Thank you 💚

That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

Ever fucking green

imagine if it happens on tv

I think my ability to distinguish between "I am feeling weirdly anxious and low today" and "I am just a person having a totally normal reaction to being alive during the 2020s" might have completely vanished.

AOC: "As AI begins to encroach in our society, their goal is to take your cognition away from you. AI's goal is to take your thoughts away from you, your ability to think away from you, so that you become dependent on a machine ... reading books is active resistance"

all of this has always been about getting back at the uppity women who wouldn’t fuck them

The thing is, they also blatantly ignore opinion polls when the thing that's popular would reduce the power of billionaires or AIPAC. So the DNC needs a guy like Yglesias to explain why things that poll at 90% popularity are Bad Actually, and should be ignored in favor of 55/45 issues.

Hey everyone!!! We haven’t had much luck lately with our class wishlist! I am a first grade teacher and we are still needing some help with some supplies in our classroom!! Please consider helping us! It would mean the world to us! 🩷🩷 #ClearTheList #ClassWishlist www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

hey this sucks, help out if you can

NEWS: the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders have unionized and the Cowboys have agreed to recognize the union

Maxis fucking prints money. They do it cheap and they crank out packs and updates on the regular, and Sims fans devour them. They are the proverbial cash cow. So why lay those people off when you're trying to cover an $18 billion buyout debt? This is why leveraged buyouts should be illegal.

This is appalling, illegal, immoral, and 500 other things, by a private citizen who is not even in the same universe as the chain of command.

found out that my mother in law decided she was aggressively pro trans rights literally by going, I don't know anything about this but everyone who is against trans rights is also against free school lunch, the issue I know and care a lot about, so this must be the correct way to feel about this

Maybe it makes me a credentialist, but I hate how we constantly elevate guys like Yglesias — who have no relevant education or work experience. In politics, he's never run for office, worked on a campaign or served as an appointee. On policy, he has a BA and has never worked in government.

Some cities it's just not worth fucking with

Ukraine’s children are not “conscripted to die”. Kids aren’t in the army. Even young adults aren’t. Putin is killing them from hundreds of miles with drones and missiles. This is all complete nonsense unless words lack all meaning.

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

This is just chilling. The whole Mussolini strut, the people cheering. Americans.
