The Witcher x The Revenant

When Gallian colonists venture too far west, they awaken the Horned Ones, ancient demons once restrained by the vanished Great Eagles. Arksanaq, a Tulkan warrior bound to her conquerors, must rally her kin before darkness consumes the world.

"Frightening" Dan McDaid @danmcdaid.bsky.social · 12h

The relentless stupidity of the electorate gets me down, but it's worth remembering they are also victims of an underfunded and understaffed education system as well as shrinking social horizons, and are easy pickings for immoral, nihilistic tech fucks who want to keep everyone siloed and separated

It’s weird how often ‘we’ll cut spending!’ Is a major political selling point, and how often voters think ‘yes, love that for us’. ‘Would you like us to slash funding to all of these things that make your life easier and more pleasant? Vote for us!’

@madcavestudios.com I've been reading #ThePhantom since I was seven. I'm 40 now. I ADORE your first issue. The team did a brilliant job! I think my favourite part, though, was this little Bandar dude pretending to be his hero. 💜

Just some text from the declaration of independence.

Interesting read.

Screenshot of a section of text from the declaration of independence.

“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:”
