For my newsletter, I wrote about how we shouldn't ignore that a billionaire trying to build data centers is putting a hundred million into Republican anti-trans ads in these midterms. www.burnsnotice.com/the-data-cen...
The Data Center Guy Wants This Election to be About Trans People
Elon Musk obviously hates trans people, but let's not pretend he has nothing to gain personally from a Republican win this fall

I have a few comics, most is collected as trade paperbacks a few hard covers. I never considered myself a collector of comics but I apparently have become one as I had to get a short box and it's almost filled with comics from @comicuno.bsky.social and @philfalcowrites.bsky.social
Judge Kurt Engelhardt, majority opinion on the lead contamination lawsuit from Jackson, Mississippi, saying 'The Constitution does not provide redress for every governmental wrongdoing.' Jackson is more than 80 percent Black and has a poverty rate that is more than double the national average.

I got new pride pins in from @comicuno.bsky.social and @philfalcowrites.bsky.social most recent new pin kickstarter. They have joined the pride pin board. (I have a non-pride pin board too).
I'm looking forward to sharing those thoughts with you all.
TranSister Games and Allonthetablerpgs@tsg-and-aott.bsky.social · 2mo agoSo partner what lead me down the path to creating the book I'll be crowdfunding in February is this feeling of people breaking games. Like they asked how can I make X happen and what rules do I break to get there. They should have asked how do I make X happen inside the rules that already exist.
I get the difference may seem small but we can definitely do a lot of things in the rules that exist without breaking them. Or we don't break them until we absolutely have to. I'll have more of my thoughts on this on the Patreon in a couple days but this was my starting point.

less than 48 hours after Madison, WI police killed Corey Ruiz, Austin, TX police killed 17-year-old Anthoneil Williams on July 24. he called 911 after seeing someone with a gun. they immediately shot him, dozens of times.
Lex McMenamin (they/them)@lexmcmenamin.com · 2mo agoin July, bystander video of another police killing in broad daylight went viral. 6 years since 2020's movement to defund and abolish police, killings have risen—now including Corey Ruiz. organizers place his killing in a long backlash to it, which began immediately: police budgets went up by 2022
I'll have to keep an eye out for this documentary... so that I can submit a complaint to Ofcom about it when it airs. I might even submit a complaint to Channel 4 now, in preparation. www.channel4.com/4viewers/con... Also, whoever cooked up this programme can absolutely fuck off.
mcc@dryad.technology · 2mo agoIt was never going to stop at trans people.
This is mind boggling. The train delays in Camden are just bad. If this was any other part of Minneapolis this wouldnt have lasted like this for decades. www.minnpost.com/metro/2026/0...
GEN CON PEOPLE: If you get a party invite from "punch bowl", even if it's from an email address you know, DO NOT LOG IN to get more details. It's a phishing scam. I got one from "Green Ronin" and called them to check details and it's not real, but there are others floating around as well.
Seeing every small business, be it a local restaurant, a moving company, whatever, all having AI logos and AI ads, really puts into perspective just how many artists are out of jobs now. All those little sustaining jobs where someone just needed a quick thing for $50 to $200 are just gone.
Y'know, I was thinking, "what on Earth could we possibly get from a Scrooge prequel that we haven't gotten from the many adaptations of A Christmas Carol, which literally bake in the prequel?" Knowing this background now, the answer's obvious: a Christmas Carol that makes us feel bad for rich men.
Kat Tenbarge@kattenbarge.bsky.social · 2mo agoThere’s an even more sinister angle to Johnny Depp’s ongoing “comeback” tour as the new Scrooge—it’s a Paramount production and part of a slate of Ellison-backed conservative cultural takeover attempts. It’s angled around MeToo rejection and the manosphere. spitfirenews.com/p/johnny-dep...
