A black and white illustration of an interior view of a stone castle. The perspective of the viewer is peaking around the corner of a crumbling passage into a gargantuan throne room, where light spills from a crumbled vaulted ceiling onto a massive monolithic throne. There is a tattered banner hanging on the wall, rubble all around, and a small window behind the throne where you can barely see clouds in the distance through the vines that have crept into the throne room on the walls.

A black and white illustration of a birch forest where a crossroads is littered with abandoned and broken down carriages, carts, and wagons. Some of the carriages have clawing hands and fingers reaching out through the windows and bars. some of the carts in the foreground have decaying bodies on them. a lone living figure loots one of the carts in the middle of the composition.

a black and white ink illustration on dura-lar of a 3 story building with neo-colonial and victorian architectural details. the first floor is an arcana shop called Hierophany & Hedge, and the moulding above the windows also says “reagents, wands, talismans, bespoke arcana”

a black and white illustration of a swamp landscape gnarled trees and skulls floating in the water. there is a banner at the top that says "swamp"

Sorry, I've tried to stop political posts, but I think I'm gonna bookmark this for the next time someone says - "You're just calling us Nazis because you don't agree with us!"

Another good way to think of this moment is that the American secret police are increasingly comfortable black bagging American citizens on camera and in broad daylight with no basis of detention. The mere act of criticism, no matter how petty and silly, is its own justification for brutality.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

it's really remarkable that if you cry enough at strangers they will eventually after passing you from dept to dept prescribe you one pill which actively kills enough of the screaming spike through skull pain so that the past 96 hrs of no sleep and constant pain can catch up on you and you pass out

Hi hello here's my pitch for your next best-selling game:

Knights ride planes between planets like they're riding horses between towns, shooting dudes in trench warfare with WWI-era weaponry, and it's all PS2-spec so art takes no time.

Please give me six million dollars and three years thank you.

A very rough sketch of a knight on a small plane shooting bullets ahead while bullets from the ground fly past. The ground is a tiny planet, and another planet is visible in the distance. The sky is bright.

Various images of small planets floating in blue sky, globular planets merging together, a torus planet, some weird planes, and some armored characters with WWI-era technology mixed with fantastical scales

Why @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @chucktingle.bsky.social et al won't is clear: they THINK their reelection is locked up. They know the Americans who care don't have another option. And the second level leadership in the party is doing what they did with Biden: pretending nothing is wrong!
