I really hope y'all listen to this to the end, or even skip to the last 10 minutes. In our Beyond the Outer Rim, @gonkbinary.bsky.social talks about making music with their synth and Pocket Scion.

I dropped a sample in! It's so cool and everyone should tell them how cool and talented they are :)

We are LIVE with our review of the original Hellsing anime. A badass character is typically going to get you far in anime but a strong supporting cast can take it to the next level. Is this something you should sink your teeth into? Come find out!

We descend into perhaps one of the darkest eps of Visions: Season 1 with a message about aging and trying to escape that which comes for us all.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Republican Senators, with an assist from Sen. John Fetterman, voted down an attempt to block the Trump administration’s missile strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats. interc.pt/4o9CBur

A photo of Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., sits on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on Oct. 1, 2025, in Washington, overlaid with the headline, "Fetterman Is Sole Democrat to Vote Against Blocking Caribbean Drug Boat Attacks," and the DEK, "It was the first time members of Congress were put on record about whether they supported or opposed the president’s war in the Caribbean."

Hahaha thanks! I actually like the pictures that took of the most recent showcase better, so hopefully those go up at some point.

The photo of my improv classmates and I was chosen as the banner image to advertise new classes for the winter session, so yeah, you could say I'm a pretty big deal.

A photo showcasing a variety of improvisers on stage, all making goofy faces or doing something silly. I am a bearded masc individual with long hair, a beard, and a yellow shirt on the right of the group.

There's text that reads

My statement on the two year anniversary of October 7, 2023.

“Two years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific war crime, killing more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapping 250 more. I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities.

In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: adeath toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all.

This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account.

These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.”

To shut down rude behavior instantly, try a simple yet powerful five-word response.

Use this 5-word phrase when someone is rude to you—it's like 'holding up a mirror,' says public speaking expert

When we encounter a rude person, our first instinct might be to fire back with a snarky comment. But that's not the right move, says public speaking expert John Bowe. Here's the perfect response to instantly shut down rude behavior.
