We want to remind people, we are writers by trade. We should never have to give a shit about pre-press formatting.

But jesus christ did we have to study and understand offset printing that no one else apparently wants to be bothered to read up on.

Three high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.
When books were being pulled from Iowa classrooms, these teens started an after-school club to read them

The Trump administration, in one image.
Like the pre-insurmace costs for his last few hospital stays was a six figure number that his life insurance payout wouldn't have been enough to cover the medical bills. Thanks to the ACA it dropped those costs down a much more manageable four digit figure.

It's a discourse that is personal to me
LRT: the ACA is flawed but it kept my dad alive to get a liver transplant in 2011 after his job terminated him while he was dying of liver failure.

It's also what kept us from being in medical debt when he was in his last few months last year.

If you bash the ACA from the left because it failed to achieve truly universal health care, please read this thread. The law isn't perfect. (None are.) It still did a huge amount of good and saved many, many lives.
Are we doing "The ACA Sucks" Discourse again?

I'm going to guess most people hating on it from the left have never received a hospital bill the size of book; I put the apple there for scale.

That's the $1.3 million bill my kid incurred in his first ~94 days. Why does that make me respect the ACA?

Actual environmental success stories:
- we brought eagles and other raptors back from the brink after DDT use destroyed their eggs
- remember when acid rain was a thing? It’s not so much anymore
- same with the hole in the ozone layer
- Major US cities don’t look like this anymore:

I hope people aren’t tired of me drawing Hans Moleman with a sword. It’s just fun for me to draw Hans Moleman with a sword.

Geeze I go one day without drawing and my skills take a nose dive. Took quite a bit of warming up before I drew something I liked

There are two kinds of people today. Those who understand their IT person can't magically fix a massive AWS outage that is impacting stuff you wouldn't expect like Adobe Acrobat, and those who don't understand and choose to yell like an asshole and demand you fix it anyway.

Don't be that 2nd guy.

traditional and nontraditional don't have to be polar opposites; they can co-exist, sometimes even in the same person

This remains the funniest way to hear about an internet outage, though.

Playing music, endlessly scrolling tiktok, having loud video chats etc with the sound blaring from your shitty phone speaking’s while you’re in public is incredibly inconsiderate and I don’t know why people aren’t more embarrassed about doing it.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

If your company cannot hire any voice actors, don't put voice acting in your game.

This AI voice acting crap is bad.
Beyond disappointed to learn that Arc Raiders, like The Finals before it, uses AI voice acting.

So many iconic game voice work is little vendor greetings, and to farm that out to a machine is a hollow admission of a lack of care.

I know a thousand actors who would have done better for buttons.

This model has been found to only be used in one cutscene, but people have been insisting it's the entire game. They just took a model out of a datamine and assumed and the narrative spread

That narrative will not go away.

The insane amount of hate grifting around is unreal.

We know now this is utter nonsense but this is indicative of the massive problem that exists in regards to Pokémon, and Nintendo in general.

People post without context and/or knowledge and it spreads, and spreads and people just assume. This has 127k likes...

This is wrong.
