My first time working with Carlos (and laying out a daggerheart supplement!) and it was a pleasure, check it out o/
Happy Blackhat Friday, partners!

Pistolheart is live on itch! It's 10% of until Midnight and Itch is letting all creators keep 100% of their profits today, so if you were planning on getting it already... mosey on over to itch.

A more lengthy thread to come!

Obviously. Survivors could have said, “we’re innocent people being slaughtered please help.”
WASH POST: “As two men clung to a stricken, burning ship targeted by SEAL Team 6, the Joint Special Operations commander followed Hegseth’s order to leave no survivors.”

Lawless. Murder.

If you spend your money, you're irresponsible and deserve to be poor.

If you don't spend your money, you're a threat to "the economy" and deserve to be poor.

Yesterday I saw someone ask if increasing Strength in Elden Ring is “broken.”
One is the annoying things with the difficulty discussion around Souls games is that they HAVE diegetic difficulty relief valves and the fandom pretends they're like an accident
Fromsoft players are like... damaged. Speaking as someone who loves the games, the community is insufferable in their attitude that the game has a "right" way to be played. (Probably born from the "Its so hard!" circle jerk early coverage/marketing of DS1 spawned)

Who could have predicted that the Obama administration doing nothing to punish the banks in 2009 would have led to them behaving exactly the same less than 2 decades later
"Economists pulled back on bearish takes for Oracle"

Morgan Stanley yesterday:
"The price on the 5 year credit default swaps is at risk of toppling a record set in 2008 as concerns over the company’s borrowing binge to finance its AI ambitions continue to spur heavy hedging by banks and investors"
Economists pulled back on bearish takes for Oracle, fueling a stock rebound for Ellison’s firm while returning billions to his net worth.

Absolutely and totally deserved. So glad.

Seriously, if you haven't read Apocalypse World or played it, do yourself a favor.
When the ALA recognizes one's work, that's pretty dang cool.

I remember when everyone was obsessed with rehabilitating the Gygaxes that weren’t making weird wackadoo white supremacy companies.

No. They’re all bad. I remember this guy speaking at Gen Con about how he believes taxes are “worse than slavery.”

It’s so cool to have hitched your wagon 20 years ago to an industry that was booming beyond anyone’s expectations and have it turn out to be stripmined and utterly hollowed out by Shareholder Value, and every other industry you could slot into has been, surprise, hollowed out by Shareholder Value

You can tell the economy is in shambles if Applebees is out there like “we will make you two grilled cheese sandwiches for $25.”

Empire in decline. Not really feeling the arguments against acceleration right now.

Nah. I adopted that phrase after about ten thousand attempts to educate only to realize when people ask those kinds of questions, it’s immediately evident whether they’re asking in good faith. They’re almost never. They just want you to make a point to refute and waste your time.
the phrase "its not my job to educate you" has done insane damage to the trans liberation movement btw

My 12yo daughter is 5’8”
w long dirty blonde hair

She’s into grunge-chic fashion & sports thick black mascara that is smudged into ersatz smoky eyes by 9am

At the grocery store, she gets most excited about getting a TALLLL ice cream cone

Every step she takes is tracked by the Male Gaze

These are children. They’re kids. If you look at someone like this and are thinking “I can’t wait until they’re legal,” you’re a child predator. Miss me with this “ephebophilia” shit. You wanna fuck kids.

I cannot agree enough.

It’s no coincidence anarchism has been equated with random chaotic violence. It’s imperative that power never let the masses understand what is possible.
The feds target Anarchists because they know that if Americans really understood what capital-A Anarchy is all about, we'd take to it like ducks to water.

reagan would have called her a cunt, nixon would have called her a cunt and been secretly recorded saying it, biden would have called her fat, and basically everyone prior to at LEAST the 1920s would have been too baffled by the notion of a prominent woman reporter

The next time you look at a book or film or game and sneer at how being very smart and very charismatic just makes the whole plot go by in Easy Mode for a character, I need you to remember that WH meeting yesterday.
