How has no one posted the greatest to ever do it

"the closet" was not some kind of space of safety to hide or repress yourself. it is a Bomb triggerable by others if you assert your autonomy.

parental attempts to control children's explorations of what gender they are or who they have a crush on to force them back into cisness and heteronormativity is one of the starkest examples of the family being a regime of property and gendered labour relations oriented around kinship as control

A generations-in-the-making coup undone by TWO affairs. I, for one, am going to celebrate Jensen Huang's newfound popularity with a bottle of scotch and roasted marshmallows 😌

BREAKING Jensen Huang also had an affair with a Nvidia executive who reported to him. The New York Times has five sources. Full Story: nyti.ms/4AicDec

Much as I'm tempted to join the fanfare, Massey was aligned with MAGA on most issues. This is a spite play. Still, having an open channel for others to sell out the MAGA loyalists would encourage more turncoats

Hey, I am not afraid to say this shit: DO NOT WORK FOR GAMURS GROUP. I could tell so many stories. Don’t do it. Not even once.

When I saw these posted, just had to laugh or would cry. The craziest stuff was the "buy the game yourself" and "have a NZ account so you can start at 11:00 UTC on November 18" No one should take these jobs. *No one*, no matter how much you want to write or produce content in games. Don't do it.

Every time some big argument about the Video Game Crash happens, I'm tempted to do a video essay trying to explain it all in very 101 terms. One day I might even do it. But for now, here's my attempt at a Crash 101 in thread form. 🧵 CRASH 101 🧵

Jess Wilson, who once supported the federal Indigenous voice to parliament, has vowed to repeal Victoria’s treaty within the first 100 days of a Liberal government. One Nation has, as well. Victoria, you've really got no choice - Vote Green or Indie. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The Coalition plans to scrap Victoria’s treaty with First Peoples if it wins the election – but is that what voters want?

When you add them up, the collective is remarkable villany. Each one alone is shocking. IV still makes me ponder why there are not sanctions on the US. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Republican Thomas Massie filed eight articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth:

as a professional "get hired to come aboard and diagnose projects to fix them" person, I have found that anyone who shows up to try to stop people from identifying problems is an active detriment to the project. You have to know what your weaknesses are.

Every time I criticized Dem leadership in the last year or so, some doofus has popped into my TL to explain to me (a person who has worked on Dem campaigns professionally, covered them, and has a degree in public policy studies and political science) that "now is not the time" to criticize any Dems

This is crucial to understand. I've seen toxic positivity sink a game, and not long after I got fired as a scape goat for having tried to make our problems legible and thus solvable, the whole studio collapsed. You can't fix problems you don't face, but they can (and will!) get worse via neglect.

I'm Morgan and I've written 5 (holy shit it's five now!) books. My newest book, Project Tasman, is a dystopian thriller about a woman stuck in a government run experiment where she chooses who lives and dies...and it comes out in 5 days! www.amazon.com/Project-Tasm...

You should welcome all the new people to Bluesky by TELLING US ALL ABOUT YOUR BOOK AND DONT FORGET A LINK SO WE CAN BUY IT. Bluesky, the app for books.

every word of this is correct it’s not often that you can make the world appreciably better by making it appreciably worse for one single guy, but in this case you absolutely can

Cool. Can we extend that logic to Peter Thiel? Mike Cannon-Brooks? Clive Palmer? The Ellis family? The Trumps?

Reminder that when you buy your stickers from Sticker Mule you’re directly contributing to fascism. Go with Sticker Ninja, StickerApp, Standout Stickers, you have so many other options, you just have to look. Don’t be lazy. “I didn’t know, I’m not very online” is no longer a valid excuse.

whoa you guys i just discovered this amazing new way of prompting. it's called a compiler, it's kind of like an llm except way more precise. you write down your prompt in this special language to do exactly what you want it to and this compiler thing gets it right every. single. time. amazing!
