the Ohio Democratic party is purging its ranks by forcing trans people to either resign or go along with politicians who threaten their existence and calling a pride group an "unwelcoming distraction." If we're just a distraction, then win without our votes and get rid of the fake "pride" orgs 👍🏾

"Democrats aren't abandoning trans people! Maybe just one or two..." Here's every Democrat who's either voted to strip human rights away from trans people and/or has campaigned on anti-trans propaganda in the last year.

I don’t want to sound glib, but if a woman actually wanted to “make up a crime to ruin a man’s reputation,” they’d pick one that people actually give a shit about, like hurting a dog or something.

We do have a basis of Superman interacting with trans folks from the recent OGN Galaxy: As the World Falls Down It's a great sequence because it emphasizes Superman's imperfections while still primarily focusing on his empathy for the young titular heroine of the book! Very heartwarming!

Discoverability for new SFF books seems way down these days, especially outside of bestsellers and certain subgenres. I'm noticing this as both a reader and a writer. Great stuff is in danger of sinking without a trace. Please post about new/recent books you love or are excited for!!! I'll start:

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

Disciplined Duelist - for Magic: The Gathering's Streets of New Capenna AD: Sarah Wassell The first painting I completed for Magic and still one of my favourites.
A man strides across a dimly lit hallway, brandishing magical gauntlets. He rolls up a sleeve in anticipation of a fight to come. The shapes of the composition are angular and art-deco-inspired.

fun fact: one of the things that made me decide "no, I will get an actual diagnosis", rather than just assuming, was the subtitle of a thread about ADHD on the SomethingAwful forums because it hit so hard it hurt it was along the lines of "if you were lazy, you would be having fun"

Half of WotC staff have basically said they will walk out if Hasbro pushes a Harry Pottet set, they officially stated that no Harry Potter set was even up for consideration, and Mark Rosewater called a HP set highly unlikely after saying he was unwilling to rate how likely a property was.

It's good to be diligent but don't let this spike your blood pressure or cause you to go harass an employee. All signs point to this being a random property not for consideration or a chance to get data from customers saying "no thx"

Ciel @cielauthor.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
This survey is most likely a list of properties they have deals with mixed in with properties they don't so the survey doesn't turn out to be a list of Magic sets from 2027-2030, with a side dose of "gather data showing that our customers don't want HP so the suits shut up".

This is a big one. When companies are forced to bear the actual cost of all these tokens, they're cooked. Companies are already paying out the ass for tokens. While they are cheaper than the people they fired, that will only last as long as rich people are subsidizing it. And clock is ticking

Freedom of the press was one of the first rights given bc even those racist founders of America understood the importance of reporting things as they are. The press was supposed to be the vanguard of democracy, our first & last defense. They failed miserably
