The “in an election against Hitler would you vote for 99% Hitler?????” conversations that have persisted on this website for literally YEARS are so fucking baffling me

Blood of the Dawnwalker? You should play it. Top notch writing and VA, an engaging story, combat that isn't incredibly deep but largely holds up well enough over its runtime, and a really, really great atmosphere. Strong GOTY contender for me

It's not identical but I often feel this way when people out east talk about running campaigns in the Prairies. Like, sorry. You aren't winning in Alberta by being aggressively anti-pipeline. You just aren't. You don't have to like it (I certainly don't) but politics is the art of the possible

a thought that has been bouncing around my brain lately on this is we really should be more explicit that if you don't currently live in/near a particular deep red state and don't have non-dem voting relatives, you have nothing to offer on the subject of how dem pols in that state should get votes

Screaming this at other people and also myself every day

Alan Wake teaches us that evil otherwordly shadow creatures can be defeated by shining a flashlight in their eyes and then shooting them with a gun. But what many people might not know is that this trick works on regular humans too

A Chinese official attempted some of that Wolf Warrior Diplomacy ™ shit. It did not go well. Philippines' Defence Minister Gilberto Teodoro was speaking up for smaller nations and international law at a forum in Korea when he was handed a note from a Chinese official, meant as intimidating.

I've been seeing a lot of "well I guess this is the way things are now" "ah another line of evidence that we are a fallen empire", attitude that I am begging people to shake off. There are people working their butts off to make things better. Please don't give up. Join us.

And this goes for Europeans as well. A lot of us Americans get it and are as pissed with Trump as you are but the true enablers you should be directing your anger at you won't find here. All you are doing really is just punching down on the Americans who are feeling the brunt of the abuse right now.

Folks, the people we need to yell at aren't on here. Americans don't have collective guilt any more than any other group of people and it's not cool to be dicks to people that haven't wronged you

Kalshi is unchanged however

"Spiritually Israeli" is anti-Semitic and you don't need to defend it in order to criticise the actions of the Israeli state. The past few years has seen a real rise in "collective guilt is real, but from the left" and I just reject that utterly

Aubrey Gilleran@aubreygilleran.bsky.social · 2w ago

This year is the first time I’ve heard that and “spiritually Israeli” out loud and in person about topics that had nothing to do with Gaza or the state of Israel. Concerning!

Also: obviously I owe a great deal to my mother who raised us on her own, and demonstrated actual strength in the face of hardship—which women have had to do forever, as they clean up the messes left by men like my father.

Edmonton #yeg folks, Many folks are organizing to "get out the vote" and to influence folks' votes in the #abpoli Referendum(s) impending. But the work won't be over when the vote is in. Civil society groups are working together to... 1/ www.greateredmontonalliance.org/events

There's a really unfortunate tension on Bluesky right now where Canadian users' anger towards the USA is completely justified, but most of the Americans they have access to on here are in demographics targeted by the Trump regime for harm in one fashion or the other and are already suffering.

I’m gonna just keep saying the thing that alienated so many people when I said it before: Murder is bad.

I don’t think that you should be cheering when someone gets horrifically murdered, and if you’re going to argue that doing so is okay I’m just going to block you

Something I really hate about this administration is how their bone-deep shittiness brings out feelings in me that I would typically only feel for someone who had like, directly harmed a loved one. It's bad for the soul to be this angry and yet is there one member of this admin who doesn't earn it?

This is a picture of two women from the Vernon Cadet Training Centre, which holds summer programming for 12-18 year olds to develop skills on the way to adulthood. Unlike Secretary Hegseth, they do not deserve contempt or ridicule.

Related to this, for me, are the people who pretend that they're speeding for any reason other than they want to/think it's fun. Until we get into pretty substantial distances we're talking about differences of, at best, 5ish minutes and often quite a bit less than that. You aren't saving time

Brittany@sameoldstory.co · 2w ago

I wonder how many other people think “the speed limit isn’t really for me, it underestimates my skill” and just aren’t willing to say it out loud like this person

I know exactly why, poindexter. It’s because it looks cool as fuck

like, none of this is without cost to canada, but canada can create massive, painful, destabilizing chaos any time they want, and all of these fucking idiot flunkies keep daring them to do it
