My spicy take for this moment-

Too many of you do not understand the concept of infrastructure. How systems are built, how systems are maintained.

You want big bold action but haven't committed to the planning and the boring mundane tasks needed to make said action possible.

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.

This is a great reminder that the vast number of WWII propaganda posters are government works free of copyright and therefore available to remix!

WWII "Friend" poster series from the Allied Forces, originally demonstrating the various Allied forces (British, Australian, Chinese, French, Dutch, etc.) and their appearances

It reads:

"This man is your FRIEND

He fights for FREEDOM"

The image is a sepia/black and white toned image of the Portland Frog protester, simply labelled FROG

I regret to admit that the design of the editing suite on Tiktok is spectacular, beyond any other. *I* can do it. Me, with my sausage fingers and my bad eyes and my drunk-grandma approach to phones. No wonder the youths are smoothing their brains with it

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Unfortunately, all my jobs since Adobe are because of social media. My Ubisoft job and my Outerloop job resulted directly from Facebook and Twitter.

Whenever one of these platforms start going downhill, ya girl starts worrying. Gamedev is a lot of word of mouth, and that's social media.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

Every day we wake up, we are one day closer to the death of our enemies. All we can do in the meantime is protect and uplift our communities. You're already doing that, so you're good to go! Use that worry-time for something pleasant

This is important. A public show of mass dissent shows that our city can't be terrorized into submission. Show up, plug in, and learn how to protect your community.
