Hi @scalzi.com , my Mom got me Starter Villain as a Christmas present. I started reading it this week and I just want to say that if anything happens to either Hera or Persephone we are going to have to have a difficult conversation. Thank you for your time, I hope you had a great weekend!

Alright internet friends; I have a three day weekend, a box of Lorwyn Eclipsed Magic packs to open, an edible, and an irresponsible amount of Chinese food in front of me.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

This is such an important point. This is why AOC & now Zohran freak out the establishment, because they have different plans for state power.

To be a minority face of US-led empire (&now that we've shifted further into fascism, just to be a Dem face of it) you have to heavily signal that you will not seriously disrupt the agenda of white supremacy & capital in any way.

153 Democrats just joined 188 Republicans to pass HR 7006, which
•Sends $3.3B to Israel (including offensive weapons)
•Bans any attempt at Palestinian liberation
•Sends $50M to Venezuela
Only 57 Democrats voted no.
Americans still don't have healthcare.

I would never suggest that anyone do anything unlawful - certainly not right here, in front of God and everybody. So remember the first rules of firearm and internet safety: Treat every gun like it’s loaded… and every poster who calls for crime a cop.

Hey everyone,
We literally just added 100 more trans girl scouts to the trans girl scout cookie list. The list is bigger than it has ever been in EITM history.
Go get some cookies and make a trans scout's day!

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?
Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.
Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

The gofundme for that factory worker who called Trump a pedophile protector is at like $300k. Funniest possible outcome of this is everyone rushing to do the same thing in the hopes of getting paid

We need to pick up this Overton Window and throw it as far as we can. Stop waiting for shit to “be popular” and start advocating for what is transparently right.

Game #3 of 2026: Death's Door.
I adore this game, a ton of fun to explore, the music is incredible, the story and characters are funny, and cute, and surprisingly deep. Now if you need me I'll be listening to The Stranded Sailor on repeat for the foreseeable future.

Its not that the media is not covering what is happening, but it does feel like the military occupation of an American city should be treated as a national crisis.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis
The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway
They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming
