Childbearing is physically dangerous & painful for women; childrearing is an exhausting, degraded, isolating, and impoverishing endeavor that annihilates women’s other opportunities & goals. When women are free, they choose fewer children. There is no way to make them have more that is not violent.
I think I should make a regular, monthly call to action for indie developers to reply with their games, leave a description, and relevant links, instead of just doing it infrequently whenever I like. So why not a September #ShowCasey? INDIE DEVS, I WANT YOUR GAMES ON MY DESK BY TOMORROW!
All scapegoats must go!
They will anyway. Call their bluff.
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
The biggest mistake liberals make on media issues is assuming the mainstream media gives a single fuck. They don’t care. They’re rich and they’re white and they’re protected. None of this affects them. They don’t give a shit. If you understand this fact then the tone of the coverage makes sense.
Because we have eyes & working memories. The rich ruin this country, like they do everywhere they reign with impunity.

You petty ghouls making fun of Trump’s health aren’t fit to change his freshly soaked-and-soiled diapers every time a door slams near him.
Copilot plus the whole 11 upgrade extortion.
Just like every time a Republican is in the white house. This time with unvarnished fascism!
every single economic indicator right now is a blaring siren warning us of whats coming and we’re just steamboat willie whistling our way right past it
"The GOP is signing on to mass murder of children based on the novel theories of a man who has no party ties except a single Trump endorsement. It is a measure of the party’s utter hollowness, brokenness, and evil that even in this case, it can barely find the resources to demur."
Supreme Court begins the verdict and sentencing phase of Jair Bolsonaro's coup trial Tuesday, with the former president facing a possible 40-year sentence.
180 shots fired, 150 broken windows. Tumultuous firings and resignations at the CDC. The installation of a techno-optimist with a history of pushing unproven medical treatments. The month of August 2025 may go down as the worst in the history of the US Health and Human Services Department.
Introverts don’t recharge with sleep, we recharge by being left completely alone for 3–5 business days
Again, German media are better at covering America's fall into fascism than American media. Lead stories in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung: Trump's DC goal is total control über alles. Is this how a dictatorship begins? Trump's propaganda is reminiscent of the Nazis'.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.

They're furious with & fearful of people living complex, fulfilling lives which don't involve coercion of the weak.

You tell em, Kat!
As Trump attacks unions and occupies our city, we’re called to remember how we got here. Labor Day would not exist without the workers who fought and died at the Haymarket Massacre and the Pullman Strike in Chicago. It’s not a coincidence he’s targeting Chicago:

Really well-written piece.
“Lehigh Valley residents may be noticing streaks of black and orange flitting through their back yards in recent days. The “king” of the Lepidoptera family, the monarch butterfly, is passing through the Lehigh Valley on the 3,000-mile migration it makes each year.”
Biodiversity is bad, actually. I think there should be one big bug that rules everything.
A bug named Capital.
But seriously, congrats.

Dig this guy's style. Chaz Langley, the man behind the camera, runs a great Instagram account if you like street style. Unfortunately had to clip the video bc Bluesky only allows 3mins (developers pls change this!) IG langleyseye and iamsuedeofficial
Pretending eugenics and fascism are in no way related is like being aggressively ignorant in public
That's the standard by which all such posts are measured. Le Grande L.
Pure fucking evil. Everyone involved in this shit needs to be held accountable.
My favorite sentence in the New York Times explainer on Mamdani and socialism.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Hopefully, it was the Jeepers Creepers guy.

This is just getting worse and worse. The payment processors are squeezing stores harder by the day, despite denying any involvement publicly.
Can't afford to care for your kids; can't afford to care for your parents; can't afford to care for yourself—America makes it hard to care for each other, yet we have unlimited opportunity to be selfish or cruel. Demand a system with less friction and bullshit—it's "unrealistic" or "impractical."
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump said in a weekend social media post he plans to issue an executive order to impose voter ID requirements. And he reiterated his desire to ban mail voting. The president lacks the authority to take either step. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Cool and enlightening website:
Sorry food workers just know I've been there. I feel for you.
CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.

The more I think about it the most accurate depiction of a CEO is that Simpsons episode where Mr Burns laughs about crippling an Irishman as a child and can’t stop laughing even as he’s bathing or going to church
I hope he is reading how many people are hoping he’s gone for good
So many people gleefully wishing and hoping for the death of our President. What does that say about humanity? There's hope for it.
Not to mention avoiding the neo-nazi taint radiating Sauron-like from the white house.
This is like the exact scenario I was using a couple years ago to illustrate the sort of shit we were headed for
My latest newsletter is about the excesses of big tech, why Europe should declare war on Silicon Valley, and how it can win. whatwelost.substack.com/p/how-europe...
If he's not dead, I doubt it. He'll demand his vig, of course. But that's the cost of doing business in a dictatorship.
Unleashed, if they're smart.
Probably not the best economic and labor market timing to have reached the end of my grace and entered my firmly refusing to be abused by the bullshit era, but here we are nonetheless.
