I think there's two main drivers of this: A desperate working class that sees the rich make money out of thin air/cheating, and then fall for the idea they can do the same via speculative "investment" of corporate products And, of course, consumerism marketed as "investment" towards the first

Why? Why must everything we enjoy be sealed up with a "grade"? I get baseball cards being put in plastic because you can still enjoy both sides of the card. But a Blu-ray?

Recording everything we see and do constantly? It’s giving fascism, not fashion It’s just been revealed Meta is planning to make the glasses “continuously record audio while taking photos every few seconds” without any warning light* Literally NO ONE asked for this #noncegoggles *Source: the FT

Happy release day to Pathfinder Impossible Magic, which I had the pleasure of being a co-lead on! This book features the necromancer class, which can manifest undead thralls and destroy them to create dramatic, macabre effects. Here's an example I particularly love. Have fun playing necromancers!

Blossoming Gore spell. By spilling the blood of a thrall, you grow a large field of bloody roses that feeds on the life force of those around it and uses it to create thralls that do your bidding. This field appears in a 20-foot burst centered on a corner in the target thrall’s space, and that thrall is destroyed. A creature that enters or starts its turn in the area takes 10 persistent bleed damage from the rose’s thorns. You can Dismiss this spell. If a bleeding creature ends its turn in the area, it must attempt a Fortitude saving throw. Critical Success The creature is unaffected. Success The creature is drained 1. Failure The creature is drained 1, and a single thrall is created in an unoccupied space adjacent to the field. Critical Failure The creature becomes drained 2, and 2 thralls are created in unoccupied spaces adjacent to the field. Heightened (+1) The persistent bleed damage increases by 2.

There's more establishment anger over Abdul El Sayed referring to Fetterman as an ogre than Fetterman saying he was a "pro Hamas" candidate. Totally normal and acceptable Islamophobia. Doesn't bother Democratic establishment leaders, donors, and talking heads. So strange. Why is that?

I think the carney government may go down in history as the biggest con ever pulled on the Canadian people. A literal wolf in sheep’s clothing, taking advantage of a terrified nation to get around the deranged far right and instal a conservative corporate first government. He’s dooming us.

he’s gutting the public sector, he’s holding back on pharmacare deals, he tried to pull money out of daycare, he’s letting two-tier healthcare gain a foothold in alberta, and now he’s coming for public healthcare funding too

Planned changes to Ottawa’s Canada Health Transfer could slash more than $50B from public health care over a decade, David J. Climenhaga reports. This article and more at canadahealthwatch.ca #CdnHealth

Oh, and stop using the stupid "elephant versus mouse" metaphor. Canada has the 11th largest economy in the world. We're no mouse. If we started restricting oil and potash, the US would feel very real pain. We can hurt these fuckers. We *should* hurt these fuckers. Too bad our PM is a coward.

Been going to a personal trainer 3x/week for nearly 4 months. Been Going to the gym 5x/week for the last 3. Honestly, the biggest change so far is that it's almost always tarps off when I'm at home nowadays. Lookin' good and feelin' good about lookin' good.

I love Jimothy becoming a big thing 'cause they're an adorable goober. But I also thinks it's really funny that like, Paizo made him an animal companion that grows alongside you. And D&D put out stat block so you can kill him 💀
