Hello, friendly neighborhood low intensity warfare SME here: this is not an insurgency, it’s not a revolt, a rebellion, or insurrection against the federal government. There haven’t even been any acts of terrorism. There have been acts of state terror, planned by Stevie, against the citizenry.

This is a pretty damning statement about Hiveworks. Quite a few artists are following up and telling their specific stories and none of them are good.
The Hiveworks Artist Guild has released a public statement alleging years of labor abuses, financial mismanagement, and misconduct at Hiveworks at the hands of Xellette “Xel” Velamist and Isabelle “Isa” Melançon. Read their full statement at:

BREAKING: Jeff Bezos’ ex-wife has made a “transformational” donation to the LGBTQ+ advocacy group. This large gift comes just months after the Trump administration shut down counseling services for queer youth.

a reminder, again, that AltNPS is a grifter account run by people who have no affiliation with the National Park Service and indeed who never did have any affiliation with the National Park Service. They have no sources, they have no information, they are purely there to scam you.
"Receiving reports" my ass. AltNPS is not receiving reports of ICE raids in Saint Paul. They are seeing posts on social media like the rest of us.

I DO have loved ones in Saint Paul. ALL of my loved ones. They're terrified. Fuck you.

I spent an excessive number of years moderating a gaming forum and I learned a great deal about community spaces and cultivation, whether I wanted to or not. I have critical advice for anyone who runs a game store or gaming convention. Please share this thread with people who run those things.

If a bat touches you and you're not controlling it like this with thick gloves and knowing what you're doing

You need to get a rabies vaccination and I'm deadly serious.

If a bat *touches* you.
PSA for any bat-friends inspired by this post: thick work gloves like the ones being worn in this picture are absolutely necessary before attempting to handle a bat! Do not let it anywhere near bare skin! And if it appears ill or is acting erratically, do not approach, just call a pro
Hey if I'm late on my next deadline its because I just spent 2 hours swabbing this guy with oil to save him from a moth trap

THE DAY CARES ARE LOCKED BECAUSE YOU MADE A GENERATION-LONG EFFORT TO MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE TO KILL THE CHILDREN INSIDE THEM YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING GHOULS
these fucking people. they pass laws to make sure every person with a screw loose who wants an Armalite can show up to the day care armed & ready to kill, then complain that the day cares are locked to protect the children inside
CNN: “Surely you don’t think a daycare should be unlocked.”

SHIRLEY: “There should be a reception area.”

CNN: “No, every day care is locked.”

SHIRLEY: “Fair point.” 🤔

He shows up to a day care with masked men and wonders why they don’t let him in.

Twitter is doing some weird shit (again) and there’s a bunch of artists moving here. An artist I like was talking about blocking all these people for something like “why should we trust their judgement if they they didn’t leave until now”

I can only paraphrase because I got blocked for …

Dear Penthouse,
I never thought it would happen to me.

A billionaire asked me (!!!) how to move the US to single payer healthcare. I was so nervous I almost couldn’t speak.

I squeaked out some shit about Canada did it and we could use them as a model, but I don’t think he believed me

Me. wow!
I'm here willing to read anything someone puts together that details how we can get from here to there

I'm all for universal healthcare. Tell me how we get there.
