on to the final book of the Foundation trilogy! ☺️

i’m really close to finishing one. the little cellphone sized e-reader has made reading anywhere so much more realistic

realizing all live service games in the southern hemisphere are this way…

i think video games should do opposite seasons. when you’re stressed out by the heat, come cool down and play. when you’re cold and catatonic, go warm up in ur fav game world.

spring and fall would be needlessly confusing, but we’ll keep em swapped anyway for the laughs

We’ve moved our internal communications from Discord to Zulip at Mastodon, and I think there are plans to do the same for our Patreon community Discord. The harder part will be untangling my gaming communities from this…

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !

Feb 6: Veterans

If serving the country and being willing to die for it could earn Black people treatment as full citizens, it would have happened a long time ago.🤷🏿‍♂️

In a racist country, Black people are likely to serve in the military, then wind up homeless afterwards.

@ardour have contributed every month for a few years now and will continue to do so. favorite daw, excellent update. keep up the good work 🤘

Great expression that should be used more.

From Twitter

"My grandfather used to say "and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel" and I never knew what it meant until after he died my grandmother explained some magazine did a fluff interview with Magda Goebbels a few years before WW2 that included her strudel recipe and my grandfather, who hated the Nazis with the passion of 10,000 suns, thought it was an example of the media sanitising evil people and he would use the phrase when someone asked him to overlook a bad person doing bad things and focus on the good."

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !

Feb 1.

We even have quote posts this year!

This Statue of Liberty thread is especially relevant this year, when everyone is trying to pretend that US fascism against immigrants is something new, by ignoring the ongoing US fascism against Black people. People love to erase or ignore Black suffering. But we're still here, and we stubbornly refuse to be erased or ignored.

Read the whole thread if you haven't read it before.
