Hot take: I'm truly not interested in hand wringing over how much people will miss enjoying the books of men who have turned out to be abusers. I'm far more concerned about the missing art that women haven't been able to create/publish because they crossed paths with such men.

Fire the queer Black show runner who wrote Marvel's single best property in years and hire the dude behind Marvel's blandest show. Fucking great.

It's phenomenal and it's a crime that more people haven't seen it. It's truly underrated, a term that I am pretty careful about using.

using this as an opportunity to tell everyone to watch Todd and the Book of Pure Evil (It's on Am*zon Prime) which has the best musical episode in a television show in its second season. Yes, even better than OMWF.

it's also really fucking weird to act like women are just this unknowable monolith. And that their gender is the sole defining aspect of their character. Weird shit.

Very much hoping this level of corporate greed will get people looking at other games. I have absolutely nothing against people who enjoy playing D&D, but I strongly, STRONGLY, recommend everyone try other systems. Even people who have never played D&D and want to try can start with other systems!

If you steal $1000, you can be sent to prison. When health insurance companies steal $50,000,000,000, they get tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts, while the people they steal from die or go into debt. But keep blaming immigrants and poor people for rising crime.

Long election campaigns also put the emphasis, over and over again, ON THE ELECTION rather than on governing: like voting is all we as citizens have to do; like winning is the most important quality in a candidate. GOVERNING. The thing is GOVERNING. Elections should be a means of accountability+

bad luck for biden to run in an electoral cycle where "are you old" is the most important issue instead of in one of the cycles where email security procedures or accuracy of vietnam war medal citations was the most important issue in the country.

Also not everything is "dementia." A bad speaker getting worse and only being able to work like 6 hours a day isn't necessarily dementia. It's being old as hell and losing a step, which is maybe reason enough to dump him, but it's not necessarily dementia. Dementia is fucking brutal and specific.

I just got an email from my local greyhound rescue that Caliente, the dog track at Tijuana, is closing. If you're in southern California and thought about a retired racer this might be a great time to reach out to an adoption group. Retired track dogs make awesome pets.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise
