I'm very please to announce a public release of my drag-and-drop bookmarking, game-making, and wandering tool Scrubjay! Scrubjay is a weird website builder that lets you cobble together web elements, images, links, text fragments, etc into a series of nested rooms...
"SCRUBJAY" sits over a bunch of images of frogs, birds, doors. it's a very 90s look

incidentally I think this kind of stuff is actually part of why "cult" isnt the most helpful term (apart from the usual religious studies grumbles). however you define rationalism (as a scene, as an ideology, as a professional network) it is so much more flexible than you think.

really hope that the message people take away from all the EA sex parties stuff is "don't import inherently coercive real life employer/employee or mentor/mentee dynamics into your edgeplay kink spaces" and not "THEY DO THE IMMORAL KIND OF SEX DISGUSTING"

person in a bunny suit is a "threat to workers paycheck." how, exactly?
fa Dr. Masked Defender @MaskedDefender-6h They are a threat to workers paycheck. Not your though rich lady. So you dont care.

Mr. Mask, you are confused. the only creatures in bunny suits threatening field workers would be actual bunnies. to charge actual bunnies with wearing "bunny suits" is redundant.
Dr. Masked Defender @MaskedDefender • 2h
LOL. You all think field workers and meat plant workers and hotel maids are OVERPAID in America and we should bring in 50 million migrants to lower their wages. Shame on you.

not knowing your address or phone number isn't AI brainpoisoning it's personal assistant brainpoisoning. it's "you have too much money and do not engage in the realities of navigating our society" brainpoisoning.

if leadership says it's okay, it's safe, to care about a minority group, they'll care about them and if leadership says otherwise, they'll switch to 'well unfortunately we just gotta be pragmatic' so much of 'pragmatic' politics is people who are afraid and conflict avoidant wanting to feel savvy

a lot of them it's not even conscious or disingenuous, intentional hypocrite shit. their ideology in the moment is determined by "leadership knows best" that mixes in with a deep need for safety and comfort, an absence of tension, so they move to whatever feels like a 'safe' viewpoint to have

Manwë told me Melkor keeps harrying the Firstborn of Ilúvatar so I asked how many Elves he has and he said he just goes to Middle-Earth and invites more Elves on the Great Journey so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding the Quendi to Morgoth and then Nienna started crying.

In many cases the tools do exist but a cultural decision has been made on all sides to pretend that you do not see them. Did you know you can write scripts to process data in Google Sheets? Did you know Applescript is still a thing?

Wizards. Magic. Pressures of masculinity. A venerable pact. A tolling bell of mortality. You'll find all these and more in Seven-Part Pact, an ambitious, revolutionary TTRPG experience from the creators of Wanderhome. Make your late pledge today! 🪄 bit.ly/sevenpartpactks #stevejacksongames
A colorful gameboard appears as a square on a yellow background with the Seven-Part Pact logo and the words "Late pledging open now". There is a darker yellow bar with the text "An ornate & wizardly TTRPG from the creators of Wanderhome." The Possum Creek and Steve Jackson Games Eye-in-Pyramid logo are above social media icons.

[rings bell] theoryslop! theoryslop! come get yer theoryslop while it's still hot!
one page. header reads "RPG DESIGNER THEORYSLOP ALIGNMENT CHARTS & SHEET." gray text under the header reads "You have 20 points to assign to each stat array, Pendragon-style. For tri- or otherwise multi-polar arrays, express the stats as ranges, e.g. “Gamist 1–7 / Dramatist 8–9 / Simulationist 10–20.”
subheaders followed by lines for writing read: "Designer: / Project: / Link:"
subheader reads "Binary Traits," followed by a list of silly game studies paired descriptors and space to write stats: "Ludologist / Narratologist // Game-as-Activity / Game-as-Object // Proceduralist / Anti-Proceduralist // Diegetic / Endogenous // Suitsian / Non-Suitsian // Closed Lusory Goal / Open Lusory Goal // Toy-Game / Meta-Game // Character-Locked / Authorial // Problem-Solving / Story-Telling // Rulebooks / Adventures."
subheader reads "Special Twinned Binary Traits (the Bartle Zone)," followed by gray text reading "Assign 20 points to each axis, but make a single roll when testing the combined traits." following is a two-axis chart, north-south reading "Social / Non-Social" and west-east reading "Aggressive / Passive." 
in the second column, a subheader reads "Multi-Polar Traits" followed by shapes with stats at their corners: triangle, "Dramatist / Gamist / Simulationist"; square, "Agon / Alea / Mimicry / Ilinx"; hexagon, "Classic / OSR / Trad / Nordic larp / Neotrad / Storygames"; square, "Gamer / Actor / Socialite / Immersive." 
a subheader reads "Skills," followed by a big list of 32 skills, with space for stats next to each: Academia, Acting, Art Direction, Blog, Cartography, Copyediting, Credit Rating, Day Jon, Game Studies, Graphic Design, Illustration, Layout, Line Editing, Livestream, Marketing, Networking, Operations, Organizing, Podcast, Printing, Production, Proofreading, Shitpost, Shortform Video, Social Media, Thirst Trap, Video Essay, Web Dev, Writ. (Adventure), Writing (Lore), Writing (Rules), Other: "
gray text reads "Sam Sorensen, September 2026"same theoryslop designer sheet as before, this time filled out in handwritten green, for me, Sam. I skew towards problem-solving, goal-driven play, as well as towards adventures, imaginary worlds, and simulationism. the notable inclusions in my skills lists are a +6 in game studies, a +4 in academic, blog, layout, line editing, and adventure-writing, and a +2 in "museum," my "other" skill

Incredible sentence.
Indeed, while Jordan became a reclusive prisoner to his iconic status, Barkley lived to be out among the masses, and his nightclub hopping led to more than one mano a mano face-off with loudmouth fans. “Let there be no conflict in America,” Barkley said in 1997, after he tossed an obnoxious heckler through a plate-glass window in an Orlando, Fla., bar.

It takes you 20 paragraphs to get to the part of the article where they admit that Mamdani isn't paying the influencers and the reason they are posting videos of the stuff Mamdani is doing is because people are interested in watching it.
The mayor’s office says that it does not pay the influencers. Still, their proximity and access to a figure as popular as Mr. Mamdani can help increase their own social media following and, by extension, potentially put them in a position to attract paid content sponsorships from commercial brands. Some influencers said that when they feature Mr. Mamdani, the videos get more likes and viewers watch longer.
