Been following Hannah and Joseph / Whalenought Studios since 2014, when they kickstarted Serpent in the Staglands.

Cool people, doing cool & extremely distinct RPGs. After issues with Serpent & Mechajammer, it's nice that this seems to be their breakout hit - the one where it all clicks together.

I hate that this is so. It means that unless he leaves office, things can become immeasurably worse. And yet that’s maybe what it takes for people who live their lives blithely unaware of what’s going on around them to finally make connections about the Republican party and the 21st century pattern.

From promoting Mein Kampf reading groups led by Ann Coulter’s white nationalist niece one day, to getting face time with the Secretary of State the next. America! We’re still the country where anything is possible!

christians looking for jesus in every war we start, every missile we fire, every conquering despot we crown, and never in the one place jesus promised he could be found: among the poor, the starving, the oppressed.

The throughline for sanewashing this is most likely the Gospel Coalition. Theyβ€˜re a Reform/Calvinist crowd that write Very Serious Pieces about male headship and platform kooks in a β€œwait this isn’t as controversial as you might think!” way. Very complementarIan-male-headship so the fit is natural.

Trump’s β€œWarflation” Has Just Begun If he were trying to increase prices on purpose, would he be doing anything differently?

Did you see the Catherine Rampell piece? I hadn’t thought through all the supply chain permutations but… wow.

Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.

"Stripping anonymity from the internet would constitute one of the most sweeping rollbacks of civil rights in recent history. It would allow for unprecedented levels of mass surveillance and censorship, endangering the most marginalized members of society."

Another member of the chat, William Bejerano β€” who tried to start a pro-life group at Miami Dade College β€” was the primary user of the n-word in the group. At one point, he posted a block of text calling for dozens of acts of extreme violence against Black people, who he referred to using the n-word, including crucifying, beheading and dissecting people. Bejerano hung up the phone when reached by the Herald.

In WhatsApp conversations leaked to the Miami Herald, participants used variations of the n-word more than 400 times, regularly described women as "whores," used slurs to talk about Jewish and gay people and mused about Hitler's politics.
