Every one in their "villain arc" trying to be a bad bitch, are people stocking up on champagne and fire works waiting for news of your death? Yeah, I didn't think so. Be more cunty. Maybe overthrow a school board or city council.

Every time someone whines about people asking them not to buy Harry Potter trash, they spout off, "But where do you draw the line? How do you enjoy things" I don't know but try drawing one at all you transphobic fucks.

My father was a complex figure in my life. I won't lionize him, but I love him. I just try to be an even better man than he was. Here are a couple from long before the cancer and chemo therapy.
Bug (@thebomberbug.bsky.social)
It's been two years since I held my father's hand while he died. I could hear his heart stop. Love, loss, pain, family, and even death, like this, is a privilege. May we all be so lucky.

My brotha from another motha, @briancolin.com, got hit with an insane cost in tariffs. You don't need to buy the Plunderlust game, but if you've got a little extra, it would help offset some of this craziness. Here's a link: plunderlust.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...

Watching the Jurassic Park movies I have learned dinosaurs are hyper intelligent neigh indestructible serial killers with monster walk, and unlike all other animals that exist, they kill without hesitation, hungry, or any sense of fear. Just murder and move on. This is clearly why GMOs are evil.

I have had insomnia since I was like 12. The fact that people think telling me to not watch TV or turn off my phone or blah blah blah. Like sure, I haven't thought of that in 25+ years. 🫠
Bug (@thebomberbug.bsky.social)
Just because they are making some donation for a game (they didn't even name in the statments!) doesn't mean you should buy Harry Potter trash. Let it rot on the shelves. This kind of thing can't keep being a get out of bigotry free card.

After a lifetime of service to a church and a god, she is just left here, in a place where the women are laid under haphazard headstones. So carelessly placed, that even the markers from last year are over grown. She isn't even with family. She is alone, under a crooked stone.

Today I learned no one visits nuns' graves. Not even me. I walked right here, like the funeral was yesterday. I dug out as much of the grass as I could. Every stone in this lot is sinking, forgotten and mowed over without a thought. Sister Annie was my grandmother's little sister.

My favorite comment about Rebel Scum today is the accusation that the game was made just to "get reddit to notice" so we can "make money." I think I am the only one in the company that even has a reddit account; but yeah, we are in fact a for profit company. lol
Jumpgate Games (@jumpgategames.itch.io) reposted
If this ban covered @9thlevelgames.bsky.social Rebel Scum but not Going Rogue, then we were clearly doing something wrong. In the meantime, we've removed all of our games from @drivethrurpg.com until they allow Rebel Scum, or forever—whichever comes first. Shameful & cowardly decision by Roll20.

I'm in the actual play. The Republican party wants Queer folks like me hidden or just dead. We are watching immigrates being dragged from homes. We are being forced into wars while children are slaughtered. This isn't politics, it's cruelty. There is no both sides. Bella Ciao. #rebelscum
