J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-trans organisation Rowling's organisation will offer financial support to individuals or groups in the UK or Ireland who want to fight trans inclusion.

I have infinitely more respect for a fullblown Walt-is-capitalist-Jesus / second home in Orlando-owning Disney Adult than I do for even the lowest-key Harry Potter casual gcn.ie/j-k-rowling-...

Recent videogame takes: Expedition 33 is fantastic in every way, but for some reason is failing to hold my attention. Tiny Bookshop is fun in small bursts. And Is This Seat Taken? is my obsession. (But people need to stop wearing too much cologne on my bus!) 🎮

Stay salty DC 🔥

The golden age of TV, for sure!

A few: Game Changer, Dimension 20, Um Actually. I find most comfort in YouTube/Nebula nowadays, with a smattering of streaming. Haven’t watched cable or network TV in ages.

tvos app text: Are you sure you want to exit HISTORY? Ok Cancel

yes i am sure

I feel so many things, but mostly, I feel just an absolute wave of sadness for the evil that is taking over this country.

Do I want to get #Expedition33? Yes. Do I already have a massive backlog of game I need to get through? Yes. Will this stop me? No.

It looks so good. 🎮

Gavin Newsom breaks with Democrats on trans athletes in sports The Democratic California governor made the stunning remarks in his debut podcast with conservative guest Charlie Kirk.

the thing about chasing what you think is public opinion is that if and when things turn you will have made a bunch of statements and taken a bunch of stances that you’ll have to disavow. probably a better strategy just to say what you actually believe and stand by it. anyway, this guy sucks.

And to be so very clear, JKR has openly stated that the money she makes from Harry Potter (in all its forms, right now) goes directly to conservative and specifically anti-trans causes.

Do not financially engage with Harry Potter. Don't even engage with it for free. It's a Faustian IP, do not.

i hope more than anything what people learn from this 2nd trump term is that the capitalist class are aligned and they want you to have less rights and only want you to exist to generate profit for them

I really need to get back to planning our next #DND session, but I have zero motivation or concentration. Doom scrolling all day is not helping matters.

Siamese cat snuggles with Prodigy Online floppy disk from the early 90s.

Found in a box in the closet: Prodigy Online disk circa 1992? (Apparently used at some point for my first resume, I assume late 90s.) Ah, the good old days of arguing with other NIN fans on their bulletin board or waiting 5 minutes for literally anything to load.

Ok man, I’ll tell them

Incredibly moving Justin Trudeau remarks:

"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people....Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us."

Origins, even though I CRIED over the terrible ending for my character. It was the first time I ever felt my choices had serious implications in a video game.

Yes, totally a “top priority.” Absolutely nothing else going on right now to be worried about. Not a thing. All good here. 👍

Agreed!
