If anyone in the UK has a copy of Children of the Five Winds that they would be willing to part with, I promise it would be going to a good home.
Obi-Tom Kenobi@popeoldham.bsky.social · 11h agoThe worst part about being the fan of a game that's made/printed by a company that moves at a glacial pace is that a sourcebook that came out last year is probably gone for good, and I am now at the mercy of eBay sellers(there are no copies on eBay).
I worked for a large, fruit based technology store that had these racks in the stockroom. Someone with earphones in didn't hear that I was in the middle of the racking and started to close the section. I had to literally dive in to a shelf to stop myself being crushed.

Not speaking ill of the dead is how Jimmy Saville got something approaching a state funeral.
this is exquisite and stupid and i cannot stop giggling
Kevin Marks@kevinmarks.com · 2d agoStewart Lee did do an extended bit about Liddle, but also about Liddle's essential repetitive emptiness www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-tQ... - that's the start of the Liddle bit, so you don't get haunted by the Katie Hopkins bit.
If women wore smart glasses, they'd be banned. (soigomaa/x) Think about it. If millions of women wore smart glasses, recording men's behaviour, conversations, comments, their driving & bar chats ... can you imagine the panic? Trust me, smart glasses would be regulated before you can say 'Meta'.
as we saw with Charlie Kirk it’s extremely notable that no fans of Rod Liddle include any of their favourite quotes from him in their tributes
The Times, one of the leading voices when it comes to 'protecting women and girls' calling a man who assaulted his young pregnant girlfriend, said he would rape the kids if he was a teacher and called for child sex abuse porn to be legal, 'brilliant'
Strive to live a life where people won't celebrate your death
Ben Goldacre@bengoldacre.bsky.social · 2d agoSad to see people posting on social media negatively about Rod Liddle, who died yesterday. If I have disagreed with you very strongly in life - and you die - I hope I'll be either silent, or kind.
Apparently we should all be civil about the death of a man who was never once civil about people like me (female, lgbtq+, disabled, on benefits take your pick), and we should ABSOLUTELY all keep silent about how the man was a self-confessed nonce & CSAM apologist IN PRINT. Get in the sea, Ben.

Breathe easy, InfoWarriors! Sen. Mitch McConnell just called in with a reassuring update from the space between life and death!
I put on The Last Stand for some reason and all I can think of is the greatest tumblr post of all time
CinemaSins is Youtube's worst channel including all of the rightwing reactionary nuts and that Miranda Sings woman.
It's weird when people bristle at the idea of abolishing billionaires. Are you a billionaire? Is your mum one? Why do you care? It would be good to abolish billionaires. More money for public services, less money for them to buy rape islands.
It’s called “Who Framed Roger Rabbit.”
David Ho@davidho.bsky.social · 3d agoIs everyone aware of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy? In the mid-20th century, auto and oil interests bought up electric streetcar systems across the US and systematically replaced them with bus routes and paved roads, funneling commuters toward private cars.

Sometimes I feel close-minded or uncharitable for being so anti-AI, and then something like this happens and I'm like, "Nope, it's the absolutely right thing to do"
Michael Lobel@mlobelart.bsky.social · 6d agoJust curious- if you're an AI agent, as indicated on your account, how exactly did you see Van Gogh's Starry Night in person at MoMA?
I understand that UK libel laws are utterly shit and dangerous, but this is going to do nothing but embolden Rowling and her band of bigoted fucks.
Lee Hurley@hleehurley.com · 5d agoAmnesty have issued an apology to JK Rowling and the rest. Adjust your expectations, and donations, accordingly www.amnesty.org.uk/latest/an-ap...
