Plan A, basically, without the stink.

Organize, prepare for direct actions, build solidarity.

Plan B has a stink on it. We are calling it Plan D now.

Satirists have often been the last line of defense for journalism. It makes sense, think how handy the “it was just a joke” defense has been for the worst people. We are still at the stage of our decline where that can work. Soon enough, nothing will be funny at all.

Naive old advice. You are about one generation too late for this to be relevant.

12 Monkeys with Bruce Willis. Not exactly amnesia but extreme confusion and lack of emotional control. Some of that was due to time travel and some due to the extreme emotional trauma his character experienced.

I’m in. Let’s get it going. Labor is basically our only hope now.

Sorta scabby thinking there. The writing is on the wall for tech workers too. The reason salaries are falling is that individualistic mindset. I know it has been recently true in tech that the only way to get a raise is to change jobs. This is proving to no longer be true.

A stack of Freshmen magazines with the address labels torn off, along with one woodworking magazine. People love discovering old porn. It’s like a gift to the future.

No news source matches my political perspectives, so all of them, I guess.

Woah there, Mr Deep! I see the way you are eye-banging that cephalopod.

 

This is US focused but the principle of being involved in local issues is universal to all democracies.

Can I rant for a minute?

Why does every thread about voting devolve into bitching about the flaws of the Electoral College?

Fun fact: the Electoral College only pertains to the Presidency and there’s almost nothing you can do about that directly.

Think local, that’s where you can make a difference. Your local school board has the power to either support students or drive them to suicide. Local races frequently turn on a handful of votes.

So go ahead, sit out the election because the choices for president stink. I humbly submit that your superior moral stance may not be based on very firm principles. That trans kid down the block didn’t need your help anyway. /s

I played this game back in the 00’s and had a pretty good time. My friend group was quite creative at the time so everyone got it. It was a raucous good time.

I’m just contemplating trying again and was seeking experiences and maybe tips on pulling off a successful session.

 

Some mental health experts are advocating for religious trauma to be considered an official disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

 

A book review on the latest Weinersmith creation. It’s true, there is so much we don’t know.

Just throwing this out there on this forum because missing technology is the problem that kills the dream of Mars, according to the authors.
