She’s getting paid by ABC now (that is, getting paychecks from ABC), and it’s good for her that she’s making money.

It’s not the same thing, but I graduated about ten years ago from a college down the street from the Coast Guard Academy. The fuckin’ Coasties came to our parties every weekend and were generally known to be horrible creeps and assholes without exception. Few women on campus felt safe around any of them, let alone had…

Something like this?

This was a game we played in a Philadelphia collar county in the ‘90s, though it didn’t have a name. But with some different connotations and expectations, which I think pretty radically changes what the game was actually doing.

I played it in elementary school in the early-mid ‘90s. It’s not new, it’s probably just hyper-local because it’s not even a game we had a name for. Like, experiences of it probably differ from one school to the next even in the same district or town.

I hope Monte Cook Games considers doing something like this for 5e, honestly. Because these ideas are too good to be confined to a single system.

She hasn’t stopped singing the song because it in some way contributes to violence. She’s stopped singing the song as an act of protest against gun violence.

...saying that non-binary people are non-binary makes me the oppressor?

However you feel about Keffals, this is an attack on trans people by some of the worst people online, including Kiwi Farms. And Twitch is just gonna allow themselves to become their weapon.

What a horrifying thing to say about a person’s gender identity.

I’m not saying YOU have to feel more comfortable with supporting Fetterman after Miyares wrote very plainly that he forgives him, believes that “it is inhumane to believe one mistake should define a man’s life,” and explicitly endorses him. But that makes me feel more comfortable voting for Fetterman.

It’s actually not too much for small claims court, in Canada the maximum is $35,000.

You want to point me to a comment that was responding to me?

That’s fair! This is what the mods involved said, not me. I’m not in any way versed in Canadian proprietorship law.

Their (or their lawyer’s) take is that because Ree was the one taking the money and owned the account in which the money was held, it was a sole proprietorship and Ree does not owe the other mods anything. Ree ran everything and is the one in charge. That would mean that Ree didn’t steal from other mods, but has…

I’m becoming harder and harder to convince that the Democrats are the less bad anything. They hold power and have done nothing with it. Obama campaigned on codifying Roe fourteen years ago, had a supermajority, and didn’t. I don’t know that there’s any amount of voting that will change anything.

“We’re all very sad about this, you should give us $15 about it or else nothing will get done.”
2 years later...
“If you want anything to get done about it, you should give us $15. THIS time, for sure, we’ll get something done. But you have to give us $15.”

Fuck, I didn’t even think about that. I wonder how long his daughter has been out to him, and how that timeline maps on to him being transphobic on twitter. What a nightmare of a person.

This is not enjoying a good beer while arguing that not everyone will become an alcoholic. The only way that metaphor would make sense is if the beer was brewed with the sole aim of creating alcoholics who will be unable to stop drinking. And they’re getting better and better at doing it.
