I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!

I do think “every rich person went insane during covid because it was the first time they’ve been inconvenienced in decades” felt a little reductive at first but damn if isn’t more and more compelling as the years drag on

There's so much in this (once again incredible) chapter worth remarking on, but this part is my favorite: confirmation of how Eldrazi work and their important ecological role in the wider Multiverse! They're not truly unnatural or alien. They're indispensable scavengers.

I prune worlds. When one grows sick, threatens the wilderness of eternity, or fails to blossom fully, I aid the broader forest by felling a single tree. The monster's wide eyes connect with hers.

That booming voice from above drowns out whatever the puppet's voice actually sounds like. Tam realizes she needs to leave.

But I smell that you know not just of a sickly tree … but of an entire forest. I smell a Multiverse on you. A cluster of worlds on the verge of becoming. I sense that you are burdened by the knowledge of this world. Let us help one another. Show me where your Multiverse is, coveter of life, and I will rid you of it.

You do not have to use AI for anything. Not because you're scared of it. Not because you hate investor capitalism. Not because it's a shunting mechanism for fascism. But because you genuinely believe in the import, accuracy, and craft of your own work.

If you use AI for your advertisement flyers, I'm going to make assumptions about you. I'm going to assume you cut corners on everything. If you're a bakery, I'm going to assume you use poor quality ingredients. If you're a handyman, same thing, I'll assume you cut corners on your work.

On this day 15 years ago, we launched our first game, Bastion. To everyone who helped the Kid survive the Calamity, thank you!!🙏 You're the reason we've been able to carry on as an independent studio ever since.

Proper story's supposed to start at the beginning. Ain't so simple with this one.
