Having to resign from a BBC science show after 16 years and 33 seasons, for not being a transphobe is where we are as a country.
Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us

I've been putting together a Critical Role Campaign 4 playlist based on the Falconer's Rebellion from songs of global struggle. Especially against slavery, colonialism, imperialism, state violence, & for worker's rights, civil rights, & hope for a better tomorrow.

AI is like that time I woke up and found a U2 album I didn't ask for on my iPod.

I don't want it. I didn't ask for it. Leave me alone.

If there is a single phrase I could wish into the fucking cornfield it’s ‘this isn’t who we are.’

And if I got two it would be it’s piss soaked, cowardly pound shop flag on a lamppost UK cousin ‘I’m not racist.’
