Chris is under the weather so I am doing a second week of Hades II stream! Join me as I embody a witch child soldier at war with the concept of Time! It’s cute!

me: OOH LET ME FLY GIVE ME SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR MY MISERABLE LIFE, WOULD YOU BREAK EVEN MY WINGS, LIKE A SWALLOW?? Fuck I love this song so much

Reactor: “what’s a swallow”

Me: you know I don’t need to hear the rest of this

Sometimes I listen to low quality YouTube stuff just to have something on. Reaction channels are one genre of such. Anyway I just heard someone reacting to Kate Bush’s Night of the Swallow. The song ends and he’s quiet for a second then goes, in confusion, “what’s a swallow?”

Oh, this is a reference to an ancient meme

It's @ingforart.bsky.social's theory of Antifascist Clowns.

Fash street thugs want to fight to show toughness, but clowns are a step too far. If they win against the clown, the best they can say is they beat up a clown. But if they lose? Even if it's a %1 chance... there's no coming back from that

The best part of how Portland is handling this is they’re not only protesting, but also angering the goose steppers by not taking them seriously.

Pretty genius. Because even ICE & the national guard don’t want to be displayed as that asshole fighting people in cute costumes.

I just read this article, and it overworks its arguments without really defending them. If greed was going to ruin Swift’s artistry, wouldn’t that have happened many years ago? As the article notes, multiple exclusive limited editions and frequent new releases aren’t new for her.

This is why we need more costumed protesters

Hard to cosplay as a badass when a giant frog or a dino or a big pink pig is waving its arms and thrusting its pelvis at you

Having an actual anime studio work on this makes it an extra step above a lot of cheap anime parodies in animation sitcoms.

I like Hestia a lot she is like a pyromaniac take on Nanny Ogg.

Beat Grandpa for the first time in Hades II, that felt good. I credit the victory to Hestia and that throwing knife aspect where the omega special homes in on enemies in your cast.

Thinking about the @lindsayellis.bsky.social video where she noted how white nationalists co-opted American history X and all these other “strong” critiques but can’t handle “Springtime for Hitler” because of how ridiculous it makes them look

I’m telling you: ridicule works. These guys are supposed to intimidate the citizenry and it’s very hard to do that when a guy in a frog suit is just staring you down and daring you to do something that makes it look like you’re afraid of a cartoon

When "it" happens, I hope it's on live TV.
