Is there a country where the far right doesn't dream of civil war?
Weapon balance in that game was so odd. Pistol was so clearly one of the best weapons

Every time I see someone try to defend a politician from allegations of transphobia by pointing out their previous support for same sex marriage what I hear is "I think trans women are a type of gay man."
Unfortunately a lot of people attracted to Japan for ethnostate/fascism reasons
Yeah when I first heard her username (yes it is still that) I was amazed at the old school racism. It does make it very clear what her deal is.

Hello, sir. If you’re looking for your Christine Daaé, it’s me. Hi. I am deeply literate in arias, candlelight, adoration of monsters, and 19th century existential longing (and dread).
Dear Mr del Toro:

I understand the assignment. I understand gothic horror. I understand Christine and Erik VERY fundamentally. Cast me.

If you're a gov. worker who cannot make rent this month due to the shutdown, there's organizations that will help for a month. You can go to CatholicCharities (they help everyone regardless of faith) or there's County gov programs will also do this and you can call 211.

You know, whatever else there is to say about DC comics firing me, I have to say it felt deeply satisfying to tell a suit, "I get it, it's important to keep the faceless mob of Nazis happy"
Oh boy my favourite part of an fps is menuing in combat

People on twitter are losing their minds over this, including several scientists who I have to assume have either brain poisoned themselves or were always like this. People don't always cite what's best; they cite what they know & researchers from historically excluded communities get the short end.

remember that time when I wrote an article explaining how and why alt right types like to infiltrate wholesome communities and how to be resilient against that behavior?

I recall reporting at the time that was pretty much this. Esther seemed to be deeply uncomfortable about Brianna being trans and blamed autism and the internet for making her kid trans. The murder seemed a distant second issue to the transness even then.

It's been my experience generally that when you raise an issue with people who think of themselves as allies, no matter how gently, most of the time they view it as an attack on their identity as an ally.
Yeah they were already spinning that up before the tylenol thing. Very strongly connected to the severe anti-trans hatred among the elites there.
