My colleague, Dr. Vahid Abedini, was illegally detained by ICE on Saturday. He is currently being held without a court date in sight, despite being in the country legally. Please spread the word! We must ensure his due process rights are upheld. www.oudaily.com/news/ou-prof...

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Another TWO seasons (as promised in the end credits). #SaveWillow #Willow
And we want the fucking Willow series back, with interest (another season)
Hey Bob Iger, the people don’t want AI. They want a special edition blu-ray of the restored edition of Muppet Christmas Carol that is buried on Disney+.

It's that time of year! The time when deer guts start to undergo a magical transformation!
(Also the time of year many well-intentioned people accidentally mess the whole thing up, leading to dead deer!)

The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978) (Complete) [60fps]
Yes, this masterpiece was recorded in 60i, meaning it's 60fps if correctly deinterlaced. I'm curious if it has been seen this way since the original broadcast in 1978 was viewed on the interlaced CRTs of the time.

takes an unbelievable level of failed skill checks to be a loser if you're rich. you have unrestrained time and resources to hone any skill in the world and to verifiably support your local community but instead you're a selfish spineless blight on society. no excuse for it

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.
He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.
Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

I tried a solo TTRPG tonight for the first time, Strider Mode for #TheOneRing. I spent time going through the appendices of The Silmarillion (and the chapter on the sun and moon) to name my character. She's a ranger named Vásariel (after the sun), with a missing twin, Rándil (named after the moon).

It’s been years since I bought anything from Amazon, it’s not hard to boycott them! 10/10, would recommend.
This holiday season, give Jeff Bezos and Amazon the gift of zero dollars. 🥰

Oscar Isaac is open to returning to Star Wars but “not so open to working with Disney”
“I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great”

I was all set to go to bed at a reasonable time tonight, then I heard about these traitorous Dem COWARDS and now I'm doomscrolling. I guess the break from chronic stress after the election was just super fleeting, huh?

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

Sitting here looking at the fading light outside on this first work day after the time change, ruminating on how fucked up it is that capitalism demands that we sacrifice literally almost all daylight hours during the work week.

The desperate need to accumulate more and more at the cost of everyone else’s wellbeing should be classified as a mental disorder, and I will absolutely die on this hill.
Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
