Exactly. I am tired of seeing the “I always knew”/“their work was actually bad” takes whenever allegations emerge. Sometimes—often, actually!—bad people find their way into good spaces and make good things. And you’re not better than the folks who were taken advantage of for “always knowing”

-IMPORTANT- Gumroad has recently updated their website with the intention of phasing out the ability to manually edit your storefront and allowing you to only edit your storefront via AI agents. I will be dropping gumroad support entirely in the near future. More to come as I sort things out.

I can't get over how parallel rejectionism of Vatican II is with rejection of the Reconstruction Amendments in US politics. Surely a coincidence that both were forged in the aftermath of a hard-won victory over the forces of violent bigotry.

thinking about the way that people talk about "larp" and "cosplay" when pointing out the essential phoniness of fascists. and I always chafe at it because for me the essential character of larp is the awareness of the artifice, the sensations you get from the gap between player and character.

Elvie’s Top Five Games of 2025
Every year I always say something cliche and twee like, “I learned a lot about myself”—because it’s true! It is another year and nothing may change the fact that I am fatherless, fickle, and more frail than ever, but it doesn’t stop the fact that we can sing about the shit of the world while also trying to do something about it. So yes, I think escapism can save the world, because if we all owe ourselves a few moments of happiness, there is less room for hate to survive. I believe in us, sans sabotage.
