Sounds like they have Rick Sanchez is custody over there

Don't feel too bad. I didn't pick up on it either

I've been around for this kind of thing. Similar to grants. When the money is flowing, management just goes around and earmarks various things on the budget sheets and asks the data folks for reports to back it up. Some of it could be true. Most of it is a stretch.

I mean even if it made them more money to platform confirmed shitheads, it's still the wrong thing to do. Like ethically. It doesn't also have to be wrong from a business or even legal perspective.

If a company can't take that kind of stand I don't want anything to do with them.

I am actually kind of thrilled that I have substack subscriptions, including paid, that I can pull as my little protest to this platform. Luckily my paid subscriptions have both confirmed that they're ditching substack as well, so my support will follow them wherever they land.

I really hope that substack lets writers have access to their email lists, so they can easily take them with them.

Yo this artist rules. I just binged their back catalogue, and it's really cool to see their (jheir?) progression over the years.

Do you like cool lore? Detailed item descriptions? What about esoteric oddities that you interact with through text? How do you feel about choose-your-own-adventure books? Torment: Tides of Numenera might be the game for you.

Also highly, highly recommend Disco Elysium, but someone already suggested that. I think you would love it.

It was nice crawling different dungeons and then… “Fresh meat” That was the first time in the game where I started to frantically try to just… get the fuck out.

Thanks for the memories. I remember taking turns playing this with my sister and freaking out when we first saw the butcher. Like just being able to use the mouse and keyboard was a challenge it was so scary.

I love this. Very relatable. It's something I can totally picture myself drawing.

I'm in love with these lines. Thanks for sharing.

 

A still from the TNG episode "Masks" picturing Lt cmdr Data wearing a sunburst mask of Masaka. Text reads "Mariah is Waking"

 

Two scruffy middle aged white men, one is helping the other get off the ground and has the label "FRIDAY AFTERNOON." The man who is being lifted off the ground looks nonplussed and resigned to being helped, and has the label "MY WILL TO LIVE."

Context: I'm actually fine, don't @ me with self harm resources, it's a meme. Happy Friday fuckos
