For the love of god, do not let anyone convince you that Jill Stein is a serious person or serious candidate.
#If the green party were serious you'd see them down ballot#Not just running top of ticket people every four years#There's ways out of this two party mess#But they don't start at the top of the ticket and third parties who only work at that level are tax scams at best#And their lack of city council and state house seats kinda tells ya where the Greens are#Just mostly flashing back to a kid who sincerely told me they had belief in that party#And I get it and wish it were worthwhile to have such a thing#But alas#Somehow DSA is a more serious political organization than the Green party and I do not mean that kindly to either one

Thinking about a Drawtectives OC named Ed Erring who's like the Larry Butz of Drawtectives. Constantly way too personally involved with the crime, bumbling, compulsive liar, guy failure type with a heart full of romance and a dream of being an artist. He didn't do it but he sure was there and yet he never has any helpful information.
#Drawtectives#Thinking about Arty Ficheal from the Train Ticket clue. That would be Ed. They meet him later in the train. He super got scammed.#Can't figure out how to fit him into Season 1 yet but he'd need to be in season 1 for his cameo in season 2 to be funny#The problem is Season 1 has a Red Herring already in Avis#Maybe he'd be part of the staff with Sam?#Hmmmm#I considered calling him Red Redding and then he copies Grenda for season 2 and removed the Rs from his name#Thus making the Red Herring pun make more sense#But Red Redding is too ridiculous of a name I think

Ticketmaster tickets stolen
PSA to everyone who has tickets in their Ticketmaster/Livenation accounts. SEVERAL people have been reporting that hackers gained access to their accounts and transferred their tickets to themselves. They’ve even found their tickets for sale on Stubhub later. One girl even got an email from the hacker trying to extort more money from her. I’ve seen DOZENS of people reporting this same scam.
Change your passwords and be safe out there. Ticketmaster is no help

actually headcanon: right after the agatean empire turned into a republic (maybe a federation or some other fancy word to describe not being a cruel tyranny anymore) open for trade rich people thought for some reason that they're gonna make an easy buck since "they just started trading so they must have zero experience" but were quickly disproven when they found out that over several centuries the agateans have created the most confusing disgustingly complicated viciously elaborate bureaucratic system in the entire history of the disc just because they had nothing else to do; any attempt to scam this government would be forced to go through at least fifteen different circles of paper and ink based hell controlled by people wearing square glasses and formal black and white attire strangely resemblant of the traditional clothing executioners wore before death penalty and all (known) methods of torture got banned... and then if even those found nothing the request to sell five tons of birch for three tons of gold landed right on twoflower's desk and no matter how naive this man is in interpersonal matters he knows precisely what birch is worth due to years of making sure he doesn't have to pay if the owner intentionally burns the entire forest down
in fact, these people know their worth ever since climbing out of the womb, trying to scam even the most average agatean will get you cussed out with some of the most detailed but uniquely non-obscene wordings known to anybody ever; they value themselves and their time and don't like getting lied to, that's why it was pretty easy to convince them the old empire deserved to be overthrown once they saw the first batch of foreigners come in not looking like cruel barbarian demons whatsoever; nowadays even the most conservative auntie will tell you that the old emperor was a total [redacted for legal reasons to avoid paying moral damages] and of course an absolute [redacted out of fear of invoking the emperors vengeful spirit] for trying to mess with his people about these weird backwards folks who had trouble understanding the most basic paper money before a wet guy made some for them
#discworld#a certain abbreviated-name businessman was of course one of the first morporkians trying to peacefully scam agateans#everything almost went well before he got slipper slapped by an old woman and immediately got the first ticket back to his homecity#because no matter how persistent and well experienced you are a nice wooden toed slipper changes the minds of most#headcanons#twoflower loves his new position as the never seen before concept of a vice emperor cause now he gets paid over fifty monetary units more#and of course because now that one of cohens many kids gets to order tea ceremonies for fun he can sell insurance to entire countries#finally he gets to repeat the word “technically” at least twenty times a day and he couldn't be happier#silly little thoughts

GenCon Crit Awards situation
The Crit Awards are a relatively new Awards ceremony focused on Actual Plays. They recently announced that, supposedly due to safety concerns, they will not be hosting their ceremonies at GenCon 2024. This announcement has been met with numerous tabletop gaming personalities to cancel their appearances and trips to GenCon, as well as many others voicing support for the Crit Awards and condemning GenCon. As well as others doing the opposite.
For more information, the Crit Awards released back in mid June that in addition to banning known racists, Homophobes, misogynists, Transphobes, and the like from being eligible for nominations for their awards, they would ban outspoken zionists as well. The initial statement, admittedly, is a bit vague.
This happened supposedly because the staff found out one of the then proposed nominees either was or was once part of a controversial actual play group that was explicitly zionist; Again, no major details were revealed for privacy, though further statements allude to said controversial actual play group supporting illegal settlements in some way.
Supposedly they communicated with the nominee and came to a peaceful resolution where the nomination was removed; Said nominee has not come forward at this time. The ban announcement happened shortly after.
Since the announcement of the ban, both the Crit Awards and GenCon received numerous threats of violence from numerous sources. After phone calls with GenCon representatives on Jun 24th, the Crit Awards would announce they will not be at GenCon 2024. They released a statement revealing these things, as well as condemning "harassment, violence, and terrorism" as well as stating "we take issue with the pro-imperialist, antisemitic rhetoric that conflates Judaism with zionism" and reaffirming their condemnation for the genocide.
The organization did not call for a boycott, but many individuals have announced they will not attend GenCon in solidarity.
While the Crit Awards haven't said much recently, and their statements claim it was a peaceful agreement with GenCon Staff, many individuals connected with the Crit Awards, Including the Host of the awards ceremony, who are not bound by NDAs, have gone public and stated that GenCon forced the Crit Awards to release their statement and were in fact banned and kicked out by GenCon.
It is important to note that GenCon is held in Indianapolis, Indiana. Indiana, since 2016, has TOUGH Anti-BDS laws. Part of that is banning any and all public or state funding for any group that supports any form of boycotting or BDS, as well as banning all funding from groups that support groups that support BDS.
GenCon is a massive moneymaker for Indy, so much so that the extremely conservative state government has in the past canceled planned restrictions on Abortion rights because GenCon announced it would leave Indiana if they passed said bans. The Indianapolis Convention Center is currently undergoing major renovations to nearly double its floor space and connect to both existing and new hotels, and the area is currently building multiple new hotels and other amenities; While there are many events they are making these expansions for, the fact they announced them immediately after last year's GenCon, which was the largest yet as well as heavily criticized for overcrowding and a poor initial response to it, and they were announced mainly in the context of GenCon shows that these major investments are motivated in no small part by GenCon.
However, after the aforementioned event where GenCon protested the state's government and threatened to leave, GenCon has changed tune over the years, soften criticism despite the government being more overtly anti-choice than before, and most crucially, has signed massive partnership extension deals with Indianapolis and Indiana. These contract mean GenCon is planned to stay in Indiana until 2030; These contracts are often renegotiated often, so there are no plans to leave the state soon.
It has been suggested that GenCon was either pushed to kick out the Crit Awards, or did so preemptively to avoid backlash from the state government, which would definitely include threats to the multi-year multi-million deals with the state. While GenCon is still one of the largest annual moneymaking events in Indianapolis, there are many more events scheduled to take place in the Indy Convention Center as part of a wider plan to expand the number of events in Indy. This includes the 100th anniversary meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous, as well as the National Eucharistic Conference, the first in nearly half a century.
The point is, things have clearly changed, and GenCon both is no longer inclined to protest the state government and no longer as large a player despite making more money every year due to the sheer amount of other events, meaning the state government now has more power in the relationship and can threaten GenCon with cutting funding as well as outright expulsion from the state.
The Crit awards initial statements were very vague and were understandably criticized, and their later statements go out for their way to emphasize that they are against antisemitism and antisemitic individuals were already banned under the previous rules, and they stress that they want to avoid conflating Judaism with zionism. The massive amounts of threats sent to both the Crit Awards and GenCon are unacceptable, and some have reported that it was coordinated by various online groups after reports of the Crit Awards updated rules were done by newsites.
GenCon is getting criticized for the situation, the Crit Awards are being criticized as well, people have been realizing that GenCon notably puts up less of a fight with the conservative state government which gets them criticized more, and people are both pulling out and some are even planning on attending with pins that support the Crit Awards (as GenCon can be a big financial investment and some simply can't afford to not go after buying badges and/or booths)
GenCon starts in less than a months time, August 1st through the 4th. The Crit Awards will be held virtually.

Sure internet personalities are involved and make it about drama#But there were in fact credible threats of violence and terrorism#Literally no one in this story comes out looking great.#crit awards#The crit awards made a not great first announcement but it seems they realized how it could sound and tried to clarify things#But that depends on how things happened with that one nominee. But they never came forward so it seems they did part peacefully#Meanwhile everyone who isn't legally muzzled is tearing the shit out of GenCon staff for this decision#As well as basically telling any hate group or stalker collective that all it takes is enough threats to get even big names kicked out#People are wising up the GenCon losing it's progressive teeth against the state gov#The fact that even a big event like GenCon is likely threatened by the anti-bds laws simply by hosting someone else who is pro boycott is B#seriously wtf#Gencon only said they weren't attending due to security concerns though. They never claimed it was because they found them bigoted#GenCon shares almost the exact same anti-bigotry guidelines.#The Crit Awards have already issued refunds for event tickets despite some bigots spreading the conspiracy theory that they are a scam

I love Chappelle Roan and the effort she is willing to put into her fans
In a time where an event like this is completely unfathomable to some, and even if it is fathomable to few, scalpers and ticket resellers will just jack up prices and make them unattainable.
So the fact that she as an artist is willing to risk the loss of seats or profits, is just a simple yet amazing gesture to her fans.
I really hope this news gets the appreciation it deserves.

Oh btw I’ve also won a private talk with billybabe on the fanmeet whatever it means
#I’ve never won anything in my life and I might be lucky if I don’t get scammed…#long story short: I had some troubles with the payment and another person bought the ticket for me and it has their name on it#which isn’t that much of an issue they’ll only look at the entrance codes but the other person also knows that I won#so I could be very lucky or I can get scammed with the already bought ticket#that’s why I think I can’t be that happy but then again I truly want to believe they’re a nice person#they’re also run a billybabe fanpage so let’s see how that turns out on the 24th#but I won first for now! 🥳#zey rants
