Best episode yet! @josie.zone and @tallgirlpetunia.bsky.social are such enthusiastic hosts that they're just a joy to listen to and @alana-m-vincent.net is an instant follow. ❤️

"Here Comes Tomorrow": A Trans X-Men Podcast @herecomestomorrow.net · 1d

New episode!

This is a somber one

We talk about "Ambient Magnetic Fields," the rebuilding of Genosha, and the VERY complicated politics of genocide memorial

Luckily, we have an expert on all of the above: the great A.M. Vincent

It was a really great chat; we hope you listen 💜

EPISODE 09: AMBIENT MAGNETIC FIELDS (FT. A.M. VINCENT) — HERE COMES TOMORROW: THE PODCAST

By this point in New X-Men, it's been one year since Cassandra Nova attacked Genosha, and more importantly, one year since the real-world attacks on September 11.

Too many amazing stories from Gallup, and almost none I will repeat here. However I will talk about what I myself experienced. There was Something in the basement at the Old Rehoboth Church

I love that album SO so much. I was 19 when it came out and it changed me as a person.

Strong Original Pirate Material vibes.

The cover art from The Streets seminal debut LP Original Pirate Material. This record is 23 years old. 😭

Definitely the type of game my Dad would have bought 'for me' purely based on the cover art. 😂

Post you from a different era. This was 2010, in Manchester, the day before my 28th birthday.

27 year old me, a bald white man with a big beard wearing a green parka. I’m leaning nonchalantly on a plinth which features THE ACTUAL FUCKING FA CUP! *not pictured is the extremely large member of the security team approximately one inch out of shot, who told me in no uncertain terms that I am absolutely not allowed to touch the FA Cup*

25 hours into Hades II and yesterday I finally convinced Nemesis to join me in the Hot Springs. Felt like a bigger accomplishment than the first time I defeated [SPOILER REDACTED].

MaxPoetic @maxpoetic.gay · 3d

Hades 2 presents many questions. Do I want Nemesis to fuck me. Do I want to be Nemesis, and fuck Melinoë. These are the sorts of complex feelings only the masterful and experienced people at Supergiant games can prompt from players through the magic of play

Took a break from the Supreme Court's ongoing horrorshow to focus on what really matters: how funny it is for a federal judge to decide, as a matter of law, that Drake lost the Kendrick Lamar beef

Federal Judge Declares Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Too Awesome to Be Defamatory

Apparently, Drake decided that losing in the court of public opinion was not humiliating enough.
