I've got an opportunity lined up that should keep me solvent once it starts, but it won't be until about mid-late January, and I'm essentially at the last of my savings now. The $4000 I'm asking for here (ko-fi.com/sjhdoesgames) should be enough to keep me covered until that time. (2/3)

if you look carefully at a certain part of the title, though, you can guess what the secret thing is 😉

What Mikki is saying here is also why I've had to push back against people who keep drawing comparisons to Nazis, not because it's a false parallel but because even subconsciously it comes off as "look at what we're becoming, this hasn't been this bad before", when, no. (1/3)
I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

OK. Less angry posting now for a second:

OH HE LOOKS SO CLEAN. OH BOY. AWW YEAH

JAM PROJECT THEME *AND* WHAT LOOKS LIKE A COMMAND DASH ON TOP OF ALL HIS OTHER THROWS AND SOME SORT OF SPECIFIC MECHANIC FOR HIM MAYBE?

ALEX PLAYERS ARE ABOUT TO EAT
Alex, the Big Apple brawler, will make his descent into the ring of #StreetFighter6 on March 17. 🤼‍♂️

No use holding back when faced with the Dark Devil himself, as he'll show you no mercy with his array of devastatingly powerful throws!

That said, to put my money where my mouth is: I want to lean more on one side of something else I said about the whole thing about the DSA shutting down Chi Osse's intent to challenge Jeffries and say "in retrospect, I think Mamdani shouldn't have discouraged Osse from running. Bad call". (1/3)

Was holding this particular observation inward but given that it's on my timeline now, I'll say this before I get back to work.

My personal philosophy around, for instance, Mamdani, is not that he's above criticism, but that if you don't live in NYC, sometimes silence is golden. (1/x)

On this MLK Day please download Miiriya, it’s an app where you can shop Black Owned Businesses conveniently on one app, it’s like Amazon but all the businesses are Black Owned. It doubles as a Mutual Aid app where you can browse Black people who are struggling with overdue bills/evictions etc & help

adding Oprah to the top point, not because I didn't already know this but because I was reminded of *how many careless fucking things* she just blithely said on a national stage. repeatedly. how many hucksters and frauds she put up, on top of the stuff she did before my time. (1/2)
also, listening to more of these specific behind the bastards episodes, a lot of what's striking me is
- jk rowling and eliezer yudkowsky, collectively, have so much to answer for, because, GOD
- cults are ass

Alright, y'all. It is Fund Me Friday.

In honor of Link, who remains unjustly banned, I am doing a thread of mutual aid. Post your links below and I will repost them for as long as I am able.

learning from behind the bastards that serial fiction series worm (and by proxy, ward) is popular with rationalists makes me want to finish the fanfic I started which aims for a less heavy ending since having read at least part of the original...

We're not subtle with all our sassy skeeting about it, but it's probably time for a persistent, official statement about our stance on AI.

i found a room to stay for 15 nights - its the cheapest i can find for now

they're asking for $430 for the 15 nights. (after that, they have a tenant moving in)

there is someone else who is interested too, so this is quite time-sensitive.

please chip in if you can?

Nurses show up in our darkest moments. 9/11. The pandemic. Every illness and emergency. Their worth is not negotiable. Fair pay, safe conditions, dignity now. NYC stands with nurses and demands good faith bargaining for justice and care for all.

This is a good thread, but I'll also add that this is why I semi-aggressively check people who respond to compliments about their creative endeavors by saying "no it's not actually that good". Rooted in very similar energy as Joe is describing here, just not as extreme as the given example. (1/4)
sometimes someone in my discord is is so self-hating, stating as fact such nasty shit, that they become hostile to any kindness at all. "i'm shit and if you say I'm not you're lying to me" type shit. you have to change your outlook before your helplessness becomes real in a way you don't expect

I admit I didn't know about the Willamsburg Bridge bump (I don't travel into that part of the city on bike) & I know a lot of people will go WELL THIS IS JUST PERFORMATIVE but the small stuff matters too. He can be held to task for bigger failures if or when he makes them, let's take the small Ws.
