Since a lot of new folks joined, time to promo my maps once more.

I make hand-drawn (sometimes gimp-composited) maps for worldbuilders, GMs and nerds-in-general.

If we work together everyone can find a space to help in.

If you want to share but can't tolerate graphic imagery, calling it gore feels cruel to the martyred and the suffering of people, then follow someone like @divyampersaud.com who shares hourly with illustrations and links.

But remember that if you keep allowing something awful to be ignored you can't ask others to fight with you.

The toll this has taken on me will never be known, that's how I am, deeply messed up inside & way more than anyone will ever want to know.

I get you may be tagged in something triggering and that isn't good, but ignoring it all won't help either. You can find a way to work around it, you can connect to a single family and just help them, you can work with others to share what you feel safe with.

I want to get misspelling Zohran's name to the same level of tumblerism as Buttercup Cumbersnatch.

Own the means of mispronunciation.

My suggestions:
- Zaridar Sherwani
- Zafran Meherbani

Zohran Mamdani and the Louvre make the list of most mispronounced words of 2025
From the election of Zohran Mamdani to the intrigue surrounding the jewel heist at the Louvre, keeping up with this year’s news also left some Americans struggling with pronunciations.

If some guy stole my shit and made millions off it while wiping out my job prospects, and you, as my friend, bought that guy's cheap mass market replica of my shit, you and i would for obvious reasons have a problem. It being a massive company, not a guy, actually makes it even more of a problem.

a person making six figures has more in common with someone who is destitute than they do with a billionaire
There are now 2,900 billionaires, and they hold $15.8 trillion.

The wealth of the bottom 50% of the global population, over 4 billion people, is estimated at $3.7 trillion.

The main problem is that space telescopes in Low Earth Orbit share the similar orbits as the telecommunication satellites.

Here we show a simplified representation of the increased orbital crowding between 1958 (Sputnik) and the projected satellite population at the end of the next decade.

Dang, I was subjected to the same scam.

I caught on when they mentioned multiple accounts in my name. Which wasn't possible, as being the director of a fledgling startup I was audited by a CA & CS just months ago.
Was reading this, fully hooked and immersed into the sheer horror, while constantly thinking 'Wait, why is this so good?! Who did this?'

Until I got to the end and saw it was Anand RK, with lettering by @adityab.net and then it just made total sense lmfao.

Video games are either art, and should be thought about and written about as such - with real insight and rigour and viewed in the wider cultural context -OR- they are just toys that don’t need to be thought of with any depth. You can’t have it both ways.
