Critical Role is BACK with an explosive first episode! I know I was glued to the screen trying to figure out what was going on! But there's one big mystery already. What is Sam's Class?? Check out my newest video where I look at the evidence!

What's wrong with all of these anti-AI streamers gleefully playing water park simulator? The guy on the literal cover image is generated. At this point it's just to block and move on

We are talking about economics and how to make it fun in D&D campaigns! For a gay that hates math I sure do like to mess around with it!

So long as we're going to (kind of) address uninsurance by subsidizing private insurers in order to accommodate both admin costs, profit, and the uncontrolled healthcare costs they pay out, stopping those subsidies will lead to really, really severe consequences.

A reminder that literal Holocaust and genocide scholars are trying to figure out what to call Israel's genocide because Israel's concentration camps and massacring are distinctly too evil to be categorized a "normal" genocide.

Mass slaughter in Gaza stands apart from other genocides, Chris Sidoti says: ‘People cannot escape’

Australian human rights expert who was on UN commission of inquiry labels Israel’s strategy a failure that ‘has not brought peace and has not destroyed Hamas’

Since the Ezra & Ta-Nehisi discussion is still happening: the main point I think most are missing is that Klein is saying the role of the journalist-intellectual is to do strategic politics, whereas Coates says the role of the journalist-intellectual is to tell the truth

Say his name: Yahya Barzaq, one of the 275+ journalists killed in Gaza. He was known as one of the most prominent photojournalists still alive in Gaza. Prior to the genocide, he was known for gently photographing newborn babies.

Bluesky is consistently censoring Palestinian people. There is a blatant pattern of this and you can't argue it's down to ignorance because they've been directly confronted on it.

Kick up a fuss. Lift the voices of Palestinians. Let Bluesky know that you see this pattern and you won't let it slide.

Dude if the Democratic Party has a place for anti-trans and anti-abortion candidates then I’m not a democrat and I won’t vote for one

I don’t know what to tell you man, there’s already a political party who believes these things

It’s not a “big tent” to have zero fixed values in pursuit of power
