So it's Black History Month and that means I think it's a good time to get familiar with Mike Pondsmith, if you're not already.

When you see R. Talsorian Games, that's him. When you see Cyberpunk 2077, that's his world.

Mekton, Castle Falkenstein, also him.

I don't know why I'm being such a little hater today I think it's because I got to the end of the week and nothing exciting happened

I didn't become an organisation 13 hater til kingdom hearts 3, really, becuase they were able to carry KH2 but then they outstayed their welcome. by a lot. give us someone else I can't stand that these guys are the villains of the whole piece

I think that a remake of kingdom hearts 1 (note: not confirmed) would be an attack against me personally
the kingdom hearts fandom is starving, man. they're just making whatever the fuck up. please feed them they're so fucking hungry

also not gonna contribute more to a pile on so iykyk but setting up a false dichotomy between "artists" and "poor people" is both extremely false and very fundamentally reactionary

Love how the presumption here is that the President doesn't know what he's sharing and that's fine and normal.

Sorry, no, if the President doesn't know what he's sending out then that is indisputable proof of gross incompetence, cognitive unfitness, or both.
The New York Times has finally covered the Trump video of Obama as an ape — and they are still providing cover for him. Fuck the Times.

the word "snowflake" actually underwent a subtle shift in meaning: it used to be "special snowflake" i.e someone who thinks they're special but they're not, to meaning simply "fragile and weak" (both were used insultingly, but the meaning was different)

out of any figure in history you could say was a time traveller I wouldn't've picked the one who could not see into the future enough to prevent his own death
Hey have you all heard Candace Owens’ new theory

I fucked up I shouldn't've posted this. I thought the gag would be obvious. it was not
I should tell everyone who's mad at me for criticising kamala harris that I didn't vote for her and see what they say

something deeply twisted about the fact trump is allowed to post a video portraying the obamas as apes during black history month but if you, a peasant, say "fuck" or "shit" on TV you have to apologise profusely

It's pretty funny that this is only surfacing now because no one, especially not people who identify as his fans, knows any Kid Rock deep cuts

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit.
