for hecks.

Gav looks out on the lake. He's about to light the cigarette when a echoing sound from the trees draws his attention. Is that..singing?
JAMES MOODY (O.S.)
(singing)
Oh there's sober men and plenty, and drunkards barely twenty--
Gav jogs up the path. He reaches for his holster -- and remembers it's not there. He slows when he catches a very specific silhouette advancing out from one of the trail entrances. A horse and rider.
JAMES MOODY
There are men of over ninety that have never yet kissed a girl--
Gav relaxes a little. Probably VPD horse patrol. He pockets the cigarette and moves closer, intending to hail the rider.
As the black horse and rider clear the brush, Gav stops dead. Even in the dull blue light, he can see the red serge and the broad brimmed hat. It's tilted forward to obscure the face of the singer.
JAMES MOODY
But give me a ramblin' rover, Frae Orkney down to Dover, we will roam the country over and together we'll face the world.
GAV
What the fuck.
James tilts back his head, favouring Gav with a big grin. A sinister Dudley Do-Right with death in his black eyes.
JAMES MOODY
I think the appropriate question is who the fuck. James Moody when I'm at home, which admittedly isn't often.
He dismounts from the black horse.

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

Picture this exact scenario, but it started happening a decade ago and now every agency you work with won't shut up about you taking more time for less pay to correct their magic machine's mistakes and you'll have just the slightest idea what your games' localizers have put up with this whole time.

Nero and Sergei have an interesting relationship.

Aurelia Nero sidled up to Sergei with a big, silly smile on her face. “Comandante. Salut.”
In spite of his order to remain in place, she had managed to extricate herself from the second tank and get around the wreck of the burning leader. Her face was slack, her pupils dilated, her affect almost beatific.
Sergei stared at her, his vision going red at the edges. “Are you high?”
She shrugged. “It was boring in there.”
“I want the man who did this. I want to congratulate him before I rip out his eyes and his balls and rearrange them.”
Nero burst into giggles. Annoyed, Sergei gave her the back of his hand. The blow sent her staggering, but it didn’t stop her hyena cackling.
“Is there a fucking joke I’m missing here?” he snarled, ready to pick her up by the neck and toss her into the flames. “Do you have something funny to tell me, you little junkie bitch?”
Still gasping for breath, Nero stood upright. She motioned to her face with a sweeping Italianate gesture. “Again.”
Sergei slapped her across the face with an open palm. This time she lost her footing and fell to her knees, using her hands to catch herself on the asphalt. He tilted his head, watching as she picked herself up, touched her fingers to her bloodied lip, then nodded as though satisfied.
She jerked her head. “Follow me.”

Update to Whistle protocol in Chicago:

Code Red signal (ICE is detaining someone) has been modified to continuous blast.

Informational flyer about Rogers Park Whistle Protocols, explaining how to use whistles to alert neighbors of emergencies, with color-coded alerts, steps for use, and encouragement to form a crowd and stay loud for safety.

Graphic:

FORM A CROWD
STAY LOUD
PROTECT EACH OTHER

ROGERS PARK
WHISTLE PROTOCOLS

WHY A WHISTLE?

• A SIMPLE TOOL
FOR FAST ALERTS

• LOUD
RECOGNIZABLE
IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE

• OUR VOICES ARE
STRONGER TOGETHER

ON THE STREETS:

WHISTLES GUIDE
PEOPLE TO:

•FOLLOW ICE CARAVANS

•CATCH UP WITH THE CROWD

• ALERT NEIGHBORS TO JOIN IN

NOISE = VISIBILITY.

CODE 1:
ICE NEARBY

BLOW IN A
BROKEN RHYTHM:
PRE-PRE-PRE-PRE!

→ ALERTS THE
COMMUNITY THAT
ICE AGENTS ARE IN
THE AREA.

CODE 2:
CODE RED

BLOW IN A
CONTINUOUS,
STEADY RHYTHM:

→ ICE IS DETAINING SOMEONE
FORM A CROWD,
STAY LOUD.

STAY NONVIOLENT.
DON'T STAY SILENT.

WHY IT WORKS
• INSTANT ALERT
SYSTEM

• FASTER THAN
SOCIAL MEDIA

• TURNS SILENCE
INTO COMMUNITY ACTION

Societal norms are what make my disability disabling. That’s actually what a lot how disability is reckoned. There are evolutionary niches for people with bipolar or adhd, or on the spectrum - including being awake, active and engaged when everyone else is asleep or still.

“When one in ten men are shit and the other nine do nothing they may as well not fucking be there.”

That’s the “not” in not all men. Those are the principles and bosses and prosecutors that women and vulnerable men won’t even talk to when they’re victimized.

Victoria De Capua @victoriadecapua.bsky.social · Oct 16

It’s one of the most awful feelings. The stats are clear but when you start to really see that the numbers apply to every man you know or have known, you start to really feel the “culture” part of it. That’s how fucking normal it is. It felt normal to them to do this.
