If you want to support Magic Story and see Magic’s own IP be successful enough that it can’t be ignored, one of the easiest things you can do is preorder Strixhaven: Omens of Chaos. If you can’t do that, or already have, share the book’s website so others can:

Another winter approaches and the apartment's strays still don't have a permanent home.
If you're near KC and have room for two beautiful cats please let me know.
We love Brunk & Fluff and want them to be safe.

Apartment complex is telling renters not to feed the strays.
With it getting colder, I need to find a home for this big tuxedo man and the fluffy brown cat he cuddles with and gets food for.
If you live in KC area hit me up.
I will deliver them to you.
I'll help with other costs.

Literally all of society hates this abominable scam homunculus and the weird little death cult bubble of vampiric losers who spewed it forth upon the world. Take a break from bragging about how gullible you are and give yourself a swirlie and stuff yourself in a locker and sort yourself out.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.
The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

on Wednesday, 14 of my coworkers were terminated from their jobs. No advanced notice, no reason given, just told they needed to hand in their badges and go.
Today, through collective social & political action, all of them have been reinstated.

Mamdani embodies a pro-Palestinian politics that truly distinguishes between the state of Israel and the Jewish people, and truly takes antisemitism seriously as its own problem. That makes him a threat to those who want to absolutely conflate antisemitism and anti-Zionism, whether the ADL or WoL.
The pro-Palestine group Within Our Lifetime has already decided that Zohran Mamdani has sold out the pro-Palestine cause... by condemning swastikas drawn on a Jewish day school in Brooklyn. forward.com/culture/7822...
Mamdani's first statement on antisemitism as mayor-elect got some weird pushback
After someone spraypainted a swastika on a yeshiva, Zohran Mamdani condemned antisemitism. Somehow, this generated conspiracy theories.

Democrats Can't Blame Trans People for Their Own Failures
Despite the attempts by so many in the party's establishment to paint trans rights as a toxic issue, transphobia was soundly rejected across the country this week.

The public-facing side of American conservative politics more or less amounts to crashing out constantly about a bunch of shit that either you or the weird liars you listen to uncritically have made up. The non-public part, from what we've seen of the chat logs and such, is somehow much worse.
