You're watching the manufacture of consent evolve and adapt in real time.

oh my god...

so the first screenshot is trying to look this up on tiktok normally, "donald trump rigged election" and it says that search violates community guidelines.

the second screenshot is looking up the same exact thing, but with a (australian) vpn on. canadian vpn didn't fix it fyi.

THIS is exactly the type of censorship to be looking out for on tiktok. this actually is crazy.

ah, the immortal and universal joy found in Going Fast For Free

ha ha ha ha ha. you go Imane, take these sadsacks to task.

One for the history books.

no notes. perfect adaptation of Disco's artstyle, and just an excellent job conveying characters and their struggles/concerns through portrait.

"Storming Disco" collection (Part one)

(For those who don't know, I drew some Stormlight Archive characters as if they were in Disco Elysium)

1. Renarin

Maybe I used too many lines but he goes hard as hell

2. Kaladin

I wanted him to look a little like glass but idk

3. Elhokar

The point was to give him a theatrical vibe

4. Shallan

I think that I don't need to explain anything with this one

5. Adolin

He has the most clear space and palette of all of them (you know, most of the time he's a happy boy)

6. Jasnah

She's in Shadesmar

7. Dalinar

He has the same style as Renarin (ironic, right?) Also there's the Stormfather on the background too

8. Navani

A very casual style that I think suits her very well

9. Syl

She was happy because I was going to draw her

10. Szeth

I like that he's different from the rest. The black space represents Nightblood

yessss I gotta start wingspanposting. Hey you, play Wingspan. it's a boardgame about placing birds in habitats and building points using their effects. It's got very good Steam/Switch versions that add lovely audio clips of their calls, in addition to the beautiful hand painted art each bird gets. Really scratches the shit out of my birdwatching and card game/engine building itches simultaneously.

The base game is North American birds, but for me nothing beats the Oceania expansion. Being able to build a point-raking engine out of your backyard bird faves is really an unmatched experience imo.

GST + TFM my beloveds. I know I was just glazing the artwork but imho they don't do justice to how handsome the Grey Shrikethrush is irl.

Another really good part is that Wingspan has a rock-solid Solitaire mode with adjustable difficulty and extra features. There's no attacking or removal or any hostile interaction between players, so any potential background frustration levels typical of games like it is mostly evaporated. On top of that, Wingspan never drags on. it's always four rounds of a diminishing number of turns each, so games always pan out to like 45 minutes. As much as I love a week-long game of Twilight Imperium, (for another post, don't get me started) table space is a thing that's a thing. Play Wingspan!

Okay, I know I acted silly about this, but the fact that there is 1 singular year round roller skating rink in the city of Philadelphia home to 1.6 million people is kinda fucking horrifying when you think about the broader implications of it.

bananaville, population he

His posture is so good

scary how fast agents of empire(s) will set aside their rivalries or inter-imperial competitive squabbling in order to cooperate, share ideas, exchange technologies, and protect their shared interest in hunting and crushing you

There’s no way. there is no FUCKING way
