ICE raids are starting on Tuesday in Chicago.

Yell “ICE” and “LA MIGRA” to disrupt them. Notify people and use your privilege as a citizen to make ICE’s job as difficult as possible.

Fascism has been here. It’s just loud now. Time to be loud too.

I think its important I reiterate this point as someone who reads Orwell and has used him as a primary source; his books have interesting concepts at times, but calling things "orwellian" isn't separating art from the artist, and Orwell was a piece of shit far more often than he wasn't.

If I were to call anything specifically "Orwellian" it'd be like, when consent is manufactured by painting a foreign method of unjust authority as more unjustier than the familiar one, which is mostly what he did in real life.

It's called Orwellian because George Orwell wrote a snitch list of people he thought unsuited to working for a propaganda arm of the UK government because he thought they were pro-communist, anti-white, or had homosexual tendencies,

"Just One More Thing..." investigator Trait from Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy. Every investigator has 3 to 6 Traits!

having played both as a narrator and as an investigator for @anim-ttrpgs' eureka system i have to say i think that eureka's approach to splitting the party has resulted in. SUCH a good tabletop gaming experience that im mad it took me so long to get used to the concept.

i initially really bristled at the idea of not seeing other people play as an investigator and at the idea of putting that on the players as a narrator but having (as of tonight) officially played both roles i have to say it just really works for me. splitting the party as a narrator allows for these delicious moments of tension where a character can be truly, INCREDIBLY vulnerable, as well as making it really easy to force the investigators to communicate with each other rather than the players. and while theres the obvious benefit to being able to hide things between players and their investigators, even just having the downtime between scenes where my investigator isnt present really helped me stick in the game without getting burnt out.

there's also just the bonus of giving investigators even more room to shine and have their own moments, which is so good. and character moments feel so personal, too! knowing that two investigators bonded and no one else at the table is aware is such a weirdly refreshing feeling and makes the relationships feel so much more alive.

obviously there are benefits to having everyone always at the table, but i think for a game like eureka it really, really works for keeping the game fresh as well as really allowing investigators and their relationships to form and twist properly. its been making me crazy. i love it so much.

it's true what they say about it sucks having a joke post blow up too big so now it's reaching people who apparently don't know what a joke is. but tbh it's worse to have a sincere post blow up that big because it's the same bewildering experience but instead of people not understanding humor you are made suddenly aware of thousands of people who seem not to understand anything. because they're pissing on the poor in your fucking notes

I hope that people don't forget about gaza once a ceasefire is reached. when the bombs stop falling, they will continue to need food, medicine, doctors, and supplies. the survivors will need aid urgently in the immediate aftermath. there are bodies to be counted, rubble to be cleared, fields to be tilled, buildings to be constructed. even as the people of gaza rebuild their lives, the trauma they've endured from this genocide will stay with them for generations. despite this, they will continue their fight for the liberation of all of palestine, as they always have been, and we must not forget them. the people of gaza will not be free until "israel" no longer exists, until all palestinians can live in their country free from subjugation, with equality and dignity. do not ever let the imperialists that funded and armed this genocide continue to spread lies about the palestinian people. do not ever let anyone forget that they tried to cover up and excuse this genocide at every turn. they will try to do it again. you must stand with the people of palestine forever.

To add to this, the US embargo means not everyone has access to this level of care in Cuba. Tourists are given the highest quality care. This isn't a dig on Cuba. US embargos are a shitfuck.
