Discworld QOTD, from Making Money

“She had the slightly wistful, slightly hungry look that so many women of a certain age wore when they’d decided to trust in gods because of the absolute impossibility of continuing to trust in men.”
Discworld QOTD, from Thief of Time

“‘Dojo! What is Rule One?’

Even the cowering challenger mumbled along to the chorus:

‘Do not act incautiously when confronting little bald wrinkly smiling men!’”

To repeat: I have studied a lot of cases of autocratization over the past 15 years. Wrote about them, taught about them, consulting about them.

I do not recall an opposition so apathetic, ignorant, and inept as the @democrats.org. They cling to their power, rather than fight for democracy. Shame.

I've said it before, but the Union lost the Civil War in 1877.
our current political moment is literally just "we didn't finish Reconstruction" lol

segregation, protectionist tariffs, phrenology, anti-immigrant bigotry, widespread sabotage of educational institutions that aren't exclusive enough

like we never left the 1800s
Trump has staffed his government with straight up segregationists who are almost literally spitting on the graves of people who gave their lives for this country.

I'm a very forgiving person, often to my own detriment, but Brianna Wu doesn't come across to me as someone who actually had a profound epiphany. Her post reads like someone who realized she picked the wrong team late into the game.

She still thinks we are freaks that make her "look bad."

Your Nationalism is not Antifa.

Winston Churchill was not Antifa.
General Patton was not Antifa.
Your favorite Nationalist was not Antifa.
That’s literally the point.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

Hey it is hard to overstate the importance of human intelligence when it comes to creating models that are not only wrong, but wrong in new and innovative directions such that you can't even use them to predict their own wrongness. Only one man can do that.

On the day that commences my 50th year on this planet (and the 40th of playing RPGs), I start my list of my favourite 101 RPGs that I've played. It's in order.

So we begin with my least favourite RPG of all time.

Drumroll...
My 101 Favourite TTRPGS: 101 - Old Men Running The World
Earlier this year, we saw John Harper on the socials having worked out how many TTRPGs he's played. It was a big number. It made Jim and me sit back and do

Pope Leo is said to have accepted Cardinal Dolan's resignation and to have picked his successor as New York archbishop. Will Dolan serve in retirement as spiritual advisor to Turning Point USA? In any event, his adherence to the GOP is far stronger than his adherence to the Catholic Church.
Outgoing NYC Cardinal Dolan Faces Unprecedented Catholic Backlash After Comparing Kirk to St. Paul
Pope Leo stays measured, while Dolan’s likely successor — Bishop Daniel Flores — prepares to bring a very different voice to New York.

Showed @scienceweasels.itch.io a cosplayer dressed as Da Pope ceremoniously serving Malort to a follower at Dragoncon (set to 'Taste and See', a regular communion hymn). Their response:

"What sort of uptempo bullshit version of Taste and See is this?"

You never stop being a choir kid, I guess 😄

"How are we supposed to beat the Nazis when you're running around speaking up for communists, socialists, trade unionists, and Jews? Lots of people dislike those groups. Once we ditch all of them, the five of us who are left will beat Hitler easily."

If a candidate who definitely could beat Trump proposed re-enslaving Black people would you expect Black people to vote for that person?

Let’s use our noggins for a change.

Icky undercurrent to this

"Well, have you considered that the cultists love-bombing me sound much nicer than the radicals telling me to get a grip?"

debacle is that there's this implication of "Well, if leftists were better at love-bombing themselves..." and like, oh my god, get a fucking grip.

The left really needs to get on board with Newsom. Yes, he wants to hunt the houseless for sport and he doesn't see trans people as humans but we have to remember that he's rich, he's white and he looks like a demon wearing human skin in any pic taken of him
