It’s actually pretty easy to beat Isaac Chotiner if you know what to do (wait until he completes his third attack sequence, roll behind him, use Flame Dart until you’re out of mana, hide under the gargoyle head until his Rage Wing Spin finishes, stun him with a Sylvan Dagger, equip the Thallslayer w

Chotiner: Tell me what you found interesting about these vampires.

Documentarian: Well, it's just -- the group dynamics, I guess.

Chotiner: I can see that. I can see finding Nandor, Laszlo and Nadia entertaining.

Documentarian: Exactly.

Chotiner: So. How many people did you watch them murder?

I'm rooting for anyone who skates to Une vie à t’aimer
I’m getting word that there are skaters having to fight music rights battles right now just days before the Olympics. We know Lauriault/le Gac has already made the decision to change their RD. Don’t be surprised if we get some other program changes in Milan

Sometimes this reminder is helpful on Bluesky:

It’s good to oppose Trumpism. Trumpism is evil. But there are plenty of people who oppose Trumpism who are also petty, shitty, annoying people. Block them or ignore them and go back to opposing Trump.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

That's who I voted for!
This is the way:

NJ Gov. @mikiesherrill.bsky.social said her administration will create an online database for people to upload videos they record of ICE

“If you see an ICE agent in the street, get your phone out,” she urged New Jerseyans

Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

Schumer: And every kid torn away from their parents gets a juice box! Non-negotiable!
Chuck Schumer just announced demands on DHS to avoid shutdown:
1. End roving patrols, tighten rules on warrants
2. Enforce accountability & unified code of conduct for agents
3. No more masks & require bodycams

There are *already* standards on much of this.

The issue is DHS isn't following them!

Three Words: 9 years ago, I wrote and performed this slam poem at a lit mag meeting at our school. I wish I could redo it and take out the first 3 words because I think people can get the wrong idea and stop watching/listening. More importantly, I wish I didn't have any reason to keep reposting it.

One of the biggest things that needs to happen is for Stephen Miller to lose power. Ultimately he needs to go to jail, but for right now getting him out of power will be very helpful
"Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of the president and Stephen," Noem told a person who relayed her remarks to Axios.""

Anyone paying attentions - it's been President Miler calling the shots.

So for Dems, the win is: reiterating 3 things that are already law, 1 thing that is a best practice, and 1 thing that was already a rule up until 6 months ago?

From the bottom of my heart: fuck off with this.

And they didn't even include ICE out of hospitals, healthcare facilities and daycares.
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:

DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:
