I do think it’s whorephobia that of all the Dolly tributes I’ve seen on TV tonight, not single one of them has mentioned how she starred in a movie called “The Best Little WHOREHOUSE in Texas” where she lovingly and respectfully portrayed a whorehouse madame.

Please do not use an AI generated picture as a reference for a commission. I will definitely decline your request. I am way too tired to see AI everywhere. I can understand it can help to clear a vision, but a very simple sketch is definitely much more favorable than slop.

No one is ever owed forgiveness. Forgiving is an act of compassion that you undertake because you want to. Maybe she genuinely regrets and wants to make amends for every decision she's ever made (she doesn't). Then she should do that. If she's doing it for my forgiveness, her remorse is fake.

BTW trans people know this but cis people, you never have to forgive JK Rowling. It doesn't matter what she says now or ever. She could be on her deathbed saying "I was wrong and I'm sorry" and I'd be like "TOO BAD, DYING LADY!"

Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Tesla paid just 4.9% of their profits in federal corporate taxes in 2025. They've seen their collective tax bill drop by $95B thanks to two rounds of Trump tax cuts. Meanwhile, tech layoffs in 2026 have already surpassed 2025. Trickle-down economics was always a scam.

Actually, one more - I feel like I should say this directly, so here goes. In the 90s and 00s, the groups I remember pursuing this strategy (hyperpublicize mugshots, Black crime statistics, etc) were Stormfront, the Klan, etc. Now it's the New York Times and the Telegraph. That is the story here.

I think we all understand what it means when a man rushes to apologize when people don't tolerate the vile shit he said. Good on Stella for having the grace to accept the apology and on Matt for having the capacity to stop digging. (It does put him up one on Elon Musk.) Saber still gets no money.

Hey everyone. 

Last night, to my great surprise, I received a long email from Saber Interactive CEO Matt Karch. He apologized unreservedly for the awful way he spoke about me in the press. The email’s full text will stay between us; I’m not that kind of girl. But I have confirmed it was from him. 

Matt said he regretted escalating, and how people online were speaking about me. I’m not worried about being called slurs by random commenters—I’m a trans woman, that’s every day for me—but it stunk to have my skill and reputation built of 20 years in games publicly maligned by someone with institutional power.

BREAKING: the Democratic National Committee just unanimously approved a resolution calling for the abolition of ICE! After terrorizing our friends, families, and neighbors, ICE has no place in our nation. I'm grateful @democrats.org agreed. Now we're onto the hard work to make that happen!

- Galadriel has a love triangle with Sauron and Celeborn. That's the level of fucking fan-fic we are dealing with here. - I hate this show and wish leprosy on everyone who created it. Leprosy of the dick.

We've seen some questions pop up around layoffs: "well, if they were laid off, didn't that mean they weren't doing a good job? Maybe they deserved it." And on its face, that sounds logical and legitimate. Because the opposite would just be pure cruelty, right? ...Right? ...So here's the thing.

Another clip from yesterday, I don't want your subs/bits anymore. Support streamers through their other means such as ko-fi/patreon/etc. Twitch takes 50% & I do NOT want to reward them for their behaviour lately so if you're subbed to me via Twitch, please cancel it/stop auto-renewal

Hey TTRPG fam. Our friend @lynnemeyer.bsky.social, who is a laid-off former Paizo editor, is having a rough one. Storms knocked out power in her town and the current estimate to get power back is by next Tuesday. She lost everything in her fridge and needs help with food. Please share/donate!
