My husband and I hosted our first Friendsgiving party yesterday since we last did it in 2019. In 2019 we had 6 guests show up. This year we had 17 guests, with 15 guests in attendance at the same time. Lots of conversation, food, and Cards Against Humanity (11 players at the same time). It rocked!

The Meowth is out of the bag.

I am currently researching and writing my next book, 'Space Invaders' a queer history of videogames.

Just like 'Queer As Folklore' this is a subject very very close to my heart. It's very bloody exciting. What a lucky sod!

Thanks @manchesterup.bsky.social!

You've just died.
The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.

It was just one slice of Italian cream cake.

"How did you get into TTRPGs?

There I was minding my own business in the tavern just enjoying a good meal when all hell broke loose...
"How did you get into TTRPGs?

I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burning
I met a young girl, she gave me a Monster Manual
"How did you get into TTRPGs?"

Aboard a shipwreck train
Give my umbrella to the Rain Dogs
For I am a Rain Dog, too.

In Minnesota police set up a sting operation to catch child sex traffickers.

They caught 16 men. No immigrants. No trans people. All US Citizen Men.

One was an ICE fascist who said, "I'm ICE boys" when arrested, perhaps expecting to get special attention. He was arrested anyway.

So much winning.

Motion to replace the phrase "take a shower" with "have a shower." I'm about to have a shower.

Illegal and shameful and just how police behave in authoritarian regimes. And also wildly unpopular and not the country Americans want.
"After federal immigration officers in Charlotte saw a man taking photos of them, they chased him nearly 2 miles down a main road and made plans to “smash” into him, video played in court Thursday showed. They broke his window, charged him with a federal felony and accused him of assaulting them."

Immigration agents had a 12-pack of Modelos in their car while making arrests, Miguel Angel Garcia Martinez told investigators.

This is a hugely important story. I wrote about its consequences already in "Road to Unfreedom" and we know much more now. If we want to be a democracy we have to create structures of factuality rather than selling our future to the loudest yeller in another country.
Although the scale of this is still to be assessed, this is the inevitable outcome of the monetization of the algorithm. Rage-bait becomes a personal revenue model. Nothing about this should be a surprise.
NEWS: I spent the past 24 hours going through major MAGA accounts on Twitter, and a bombshell development has become clear: most of the right-wing ecosphere is being fed propaganda from foreign actors.

This impacts elections. This impacts discourse. This is major. Subscribe to support my work:

Every one of these posts makes me giggle at the very serious pundits who say BlueSky is in a bubble
X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.
