This is my political account. If you want to know my more political takes, some of which *will certainly* be spicy, this is where you'll find it.

Dillon is political @dillonispolitical.bsky.social · 26d

I suppose I should introduce myself before people start flagging me as a bot.

This is the more political account for @6sidedgames.bsky.social.

Still getting up and running, so mind the bump.

I could use the excuse to learn sword fighting.

Hmmm...

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

Ea-Nāşir's perfidy seems eternal!

Comic

Panel one. Stick finger singing, "Raindrops on rose/ And whiskers on kittens."

Panel two. Same stick figure holding pot and singing, "Bright copper kettles leave/ ...Flakes on my mittens!?"

Panel three. Same figure still holding pot and singing, "Hey, these are stone with a copper veneer!"

Fourth panel. Same stick figure has put down pot and is singing, "I've been bamboozled by Ea-Nāşir!"

My hatred of them is more personal in nature.

I called them because I lost my job and didn't have any food. They said they would call be back.

I called them 12 years ago. They still haven't returned that call.

Their bigotry just validates my anger at them.

One of my most popular (& contentious it seems) posts was a viral one about how of you care for queer folks at all you ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY SHOULD NOT DONATE TO THE SALVATION ARMY!

They will absolutely refuse to assist you if you are queer & take steps to actively make their lives worse

Fuck them!

just thinking about how when one of my friends was about to be homeless the Salvation Army basically told him to fuck off because he wasn't in enough trouble to need their help yet. few charities hate the vulnerable more than Salvation Army

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

I refer to people like us as "One in a millioners."

When we have a tech issue, it's the one in a million that happens.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 18h

I used to be that way.

Literally broke computers by touching the top of the tower when I was having a shitty day. Got so good I could tell people how long.

People like him are a Godsend to those that test features.

I know there are people who are going to roll their eyes at this

Those people are stupid. Every tool should be on the table and this is a very specifically powerful one for a lot of folks

For any Catholic, the sight of a Eucharistic Procession being turned away at the gates of the destination is the embodiment of Jesus being denied entrance. You don't have to be Catholic to get the symbolism in that!

This carries over to the MASTER BALL.

I mean, where's the lie?

My mom taught me only one thing.

Women are always right. Even when women are wrong, they are right. #sarcasm #joking for those that might not catch it.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

I had 0 idea where the "clanker" thing had come from. I had avoided using it because I thought it was stupid and juvenile, but it's even worse than that.

Like how all conspiracies lead to anti-Semitism, all derogatory terms lead to white supremacy.

Sounds like someone needs to hire a level 1 adventurer. Lol.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

Uh... I mean. I am. But, I also am self aware enough to know it's my own damn fault.

Just a reminder that Banned Books Week isn’t about selling more copies of 1984. It’s about keeping authors and teachers and librarians safe and making sure all of us have the freedom to read widely. www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

We all make mistakes. And it's getting harder and harder to tell.

That's not what happens.

It's always been destroyed. I literally ship this stuff daily.

Glad I wasn't pulled over at any point. That would have been a shitty day.

Fucking Indiana.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 2d

Fucking Indiana, man.
Suspended my license because I didn't file something with my state following my accident in June.

It was a simple phone call to fix with my insurance company, but really guys? And they didn't even notify me until today!

Suspended me 2 weeks ago. Never said anything.
