Implications of TX abortion ban 

On the refusal of the #SCOTUS to take up the issue of the dangerous Texas #abortion ban, and the likelihood that other reactionary states will use it as a model. It is more than a little difficult to call the USA a Constitutional Republic npr.org/2021/09/01/1033202132/

Instructions on how to poison a dataset, which I'm sure you may find useful given a certain new Texan law.

Birdsite, begpost

[Valerie] It's weird being at the front again, but not as the host

brpol, neonazis 

Sigh. A researcher that keeps track of neonazi groups just found a 2004 letter from president Bolsonaro (back then just a congressman) to a neonazi site, thanking them for their support to his political career.

The more obvious it gets, the more depressing it is how many people still support him.

The organisation Activision Blizzard hired to supposedly take care of their harassment issues is a law firm that specialises in union busting.

MH- 

I just wanna say I apologize for being away for so long. The past 2 months have been rough on us, and I had been struggling with depression because of it.

Basically, at the beginning of July, someone who Val really cares about deeply, and someone who Julayla once idolized, and who I'd like to reconnect with turned out to be a shit person. And that shit person is still harassing our family.

It's a real bummer, to be honest.

Not immunizing the globe at once caused variants. Vaccine waivers would've allowed rollout of vaccines across the world but - US / Western capitalist plutocrats blocked to protect IP / profits of pharma corporations.

The Covid pandemic will never be over, because too many Americans / Westerners are infantile & ascientific. Thousands more will die, hospitals will be overrun, the economy will lockdown/explode again. You will wear masks the rest of your life. Get your damn shot. Grow up.

“Barbie producer Mattel has created a doll in the likeness of the scientist who designed the Oxford coronavirus vaccine: Professor Dame Sarah Gilbert.”

“‘My wish is that my doll will show children careers they may not be aware of, like a vaccinologist,’ she said.”

we should really talk more about how the concept of happiness and finding happiness is terrifying for anyone that's dealing with long standing depression, anxiety, body/ facial dysmorphia, gender dysphoria, etc.. just anything we deal with that has forced us to acclimate to misery as a daily part of life.

like, its not enough to stop at, "I don't think I can ever achieve __" and needs to expand into, "I am actively avoiding __ because I don't know who I am outside of this constant state/ because I don't know how to be happy/ because what if I mess up and lose it all" etc etc etc

So, yeah, my GameJam entry is in need of ratings. If y'all could play this and give it a rating, it would be great. itch.io/jam/rpg-maker-mz-touch

Okay, I wanna show you some of my work in progress and how I work.
In this video I show you how I put in an angry NPC who is setting up Christmas decorations in town.
I don't have the time or spoons to subtitle it.
Enjoy
