People NEED to understand the evil of Prosperity Gospel and how it underpins the right-wing "Christianity"
They believe that God will reward you in this life (not just Heaven) with riches and good health for being Holy. And the inverse is also true - if you're sick or poor, that's God's punishment.

I don't think we talk enough about the fact that what underpins their belief is a corruption of the bible - prosperity gospel. They think because they are rich , they are blessed by god.
also for people who are going to say, I'm saying they aren't really christian - I'm not. /1

Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.
Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule.

The reason the headline is "doom!" is because when you see what's already been done, you see that we can do more,
which means things can get better,
which means rich people's "it's over, no stopping this, might as well let us do what we want" manipulation might stop working. Can't have that.

And I state again...WE NEED A SEPARATE ARTISTS ALLEY (like the ones at anime/sci-fi cons) AT SCIENCE CONFERENCES. LET ME BUY PLUSHIES AND COOL PRINTS FFS.
I suspect people don’t know that most scientific conferences charge many thousands of dollars to set up a sales booth, which is why the vending areas are full of boring corporate bullshit and none of the fun wacky artists you’d actually want to see there.

the temptation to try to describe hitler's reign as a failure of a single man and not a systemic, daily choice to do egregious harm that thousands of people made willingly-gleefully-is a fantasy that allows evil to continue on this planet today.
Exclusive: Adolf Hitler’s DNA has been sequenced by scientists
It has:
- shown he had a disorder which impacted his sexual development
- debunked rumours about his ancestry
- shown a high likelihood that he had a neurodivergent condition and/or bipolar disorder

Hitler had hidden genetic sexual disorder, DNA analysis reveals
The Nazi dictator had Kallmann syndrome, which hinders normal puberty and the development of sexual organs, according to groundbreaking research

lrt also get the idea out of your head that only good people can make good things and vice-versa. That's some evangelical bullshit that'll just set up your disappointment and allows you to forego critical thinking

I get that some people never liked the person who ends up being outed as abusive—but saying so often feels dismissive of those who genuinely loved their work or who they seemed to be.
Here's a thing that I despise: When someone is outed as an abuser, TERF, terrible human, and ppl start going "I never liked them anyway" "I never found them funny" "They never wrote good things to begin with" and seriously shut the hell up. All of that is just to position you are superior and (cont)

Friendly tip for folks. My discord got hacked yesterday and my computer was acting funky ever since. Turns out it was malware installed through a blender file I bought as part of an asset pack on CG Trader. I didn’t know blender files were being used this way, but I figured I’d spread the word.

Reminder that, unless a creative freelancer has a spouse with a day job that offers health insurance, they likely have an ACA plan. And with the hits to creative industries the past few years, I'm guessing many qualify for subsidies.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
