They are planning to buy

So far so good

or maybe just electricity

Uh oh

All the juice runs out if there’s holes; this will let a good amount collect.

You’re assuming that it’s a reanimated animal

I’m assuming it’s a couple babies skeletonized and combined into a bone golem.

We are not the same.

The guy punching me clearly espouses a pacifist ideology, so calling him violent is absurd horseshoe theory nonsense.

Naw this is a case of the media tiptoing around him and preferring easily digested headlines.

He’s clearly not describing The Purge in the actual quote. He doesn’t want to make crime legal.

He’s describing Kristallnacht. He wants the cops to be able to punish anyone they want with as much violence as they want. He wants a massacre of anyone they declare a criminal, aka minorities and dissidents.

It’s so much fucking scarier than the bullshit headlines and it’s so fucking frustrating.

They call me Johnny Smallatoms

According to you

That you are, whether intentionally or unintentionally, toying around with white supremacist propaganda narratives.

That’s my point.

Narratives created to influence your mind and radicalize you.

No one is immune to these influences. Beware.

People made these exact same arguments about the inclusion of a black samurai in an Assassin’s Creed game.

A black samurai who was based on a real person who actually existed in history.

The game they’re playing is very obvious to anyone who’s actually paying an ounce of attention, and it has nothing to do with caring about historical accuracy.

It’s bullshit. It’s an excuse. It’s foolish. I do not suffer it gladly.

That’s literally just a longer way of saying that it’s okay if it’s magic but it’s not okay if it’s black people.

& yeah, I’ll hold my breath for people getting equally upset about white people in fiction. Any day now. I’m sure.

I can’t disapprove a hypothetical, I guess, but a hypothetical isn’t proof of anything either.

No. Fuckin stop it. Its unbearably stupid.

Historical fiction has existed for a long time.

Y’all ain’t out here throwing a pouty parade when someone adds technology or magic or monsters into historical fiction.

But black people? Existing? If that’s where you draw the line, it’s really clear why. Make all the excuses you want.

Representation matters. Giving the few traditionally non-white roles that get written in Hollywood to white actors is an actual problem.

Getting mad about the existence of black characters in fiction fucking stupid. Really fucking stupid. Unjustifiably fucking stupid. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

… She wasn’t fired lmao. People don’t read.

She was given a 5 day suspension.

In the same way that they don’t contain ash. The tar and ash are produced by combustion.

I don’t know why, but it’s always surreal to find out that webcomics I stopped reading 15 years ago still exist. Lots of things exist when I’m not looking at them. I don’t know why my brain snags on this one.

Sluggy Freelance is still going, Christ. It took me like a year and a half to catch up to current way back in 2004, I can’t imagine the struggle now.

I keep messaging the devs but no response.

Infusing users back into Twitter? Nah
