This whole series has been great, and genuinely moving, despite (or because of) being polished campaign video.

It is so rare to see those techniques—with that *surety*—used to say things like this, from positions like this, with a platform like this. No hedging, here.

Makes me want to do the work

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Like...you're a bad person. Sorry this small person who has been alive for 5 years is being annoying.

I just...have so much more to say. But I'll just leave it there for now.

Some people gleefully have that opinion as though they're describing bugs. "I hate kids, I'm so quirky," like what do you hate about kids?

And working at a school I see it with people working DIRECTLY with kids.

One of these days I'm going to write a thing about how much people HATE children and how you are a bad person in real life if you hate kids.

I don't really think you can consider an nsfw alt an alt if it's just where you thirst follow certain people, and repost porn.

Like, I guess technically you're correct, but that isn't even worth mentioning. It's the equivalent of having a folder on your computer that isn't on your desktop. Idk!

One of my favorite games, and one of my favorite opening title cards. 😌

Andrew @astonish.bsky.social · 6d

I watched the first Tron for the first time a few months ago, and that movie wasn't very good except for the visuals and music. And Tron Legacy also wasn't very good except for the visuals and music. So if Ares slots into that category then we might be in business.

Andrew @astonish.bsky.social · 6d

Tron Ares does not look very good,but I'm still considering an IMAX ticket just to experience the soundtrack alone. Lmao

The one area that 2 blows the first game away is with the music. And the music in the first game was incredible already.

Andrew @astonish.bsky.social · 8d

Hit credits on Hades 2. Great game, great sequel. The justification to continue runs feels a bit silly this time around, but whatever. I'll probably put several more hours into it before I'm totally done. My current hour count is sitting at 64 (I played like 20 hours in Early Access though).
