Rise of the Guardians will be accepted as evidence

Additional, is Jack Frost a name or a title

Dumb thoughts that enter my brain that I am cursing y'all with: if you have multiple of the winter sprite "Jack Frost", is it Jack Frosts or Jacks Frost?

FRE and WS research and reporting is both exhausting and traumatic. There's not a lot of black and white that you can apply to it. Hell, some of the best in the field are those who were in WS groups and left. Most of us in the field want the best world possible, but moral purity is a myth

Honestly can't wait for you to come home, angel

I am deffo curious what you thought of any of them btw, so please feel free to hit me up with your thoughts

Foxes, specifically the Glorious album, the Anna vs the Apocalypse soundtrack, Symphony X - the Odyssey, Anything by Tomalia (coca cola is a favourite)

While flight costs are covered for Ottie and I, I still really need help with all the other moving costs. Moving interstate is unfortunately expensive and I am restarting my life over as I'm not able to take my furniture or most of my belongings. Anything helps at this point to make this easier.

Love you! Praying for your success

I have been watching a lot of Blood on the Clocktower games, recently, and good lord does it always feel weighted towards evil winning, based on anecdotal evidence. Of the 20+ games I've seen played out, a good 80% have been evil winning and in this current climate, thats exhausting.

Today I was in a room full of Jews and Muslims when I found out that a gunman had shot up a Jewish event. We all shared the pain together. A Palestinian man from Gaza who happened to have moved here 2 weeks before October 7 expressed his pain at our tragedy. Many of his family members are dead, and many others are in tents now. And still, he stood with us. These moments will be used to divide us. Thats the whole reason they are committed. To tear us all into different factions so one can win and one can lose. Buying into that worldview hands the shooters and bigots a win by creating the world they want. The only actual way to defeat them is to stand firm in building a world of dignity for all. This is what the Palestinian in the room did for us. It is what the Muslim man who risked his life to save Jews did. This is the way to win. This is how we beat those who want a world of division and violence. @eladnehorai

I haven't watched it at this point and probably won't. I'm practically in retirement, and need to save what little sanity remains for the things that are yet to come

A note re: Charlie Kirk and the video of his murder. As someone who has spent long years watching some of the ugliest things one could imagine: don't watch it. You don't need to see it. It will cause damage.

I am so tired. I find it deeply deplorable that someone has lost their life to gun violence, as I always do.

On the other hand, I couldn't care less about Charlie Kirk being dead. The man advocated for the proliferation of guns and didn't care about the resulting violence

Folks, the fascists were always going to find an excuse to do fascist shit & attack our rights & disappear political opponents.

Acting like you can't make "dad" mad, or else he'll use his fists is what they want: a cowed & cooperative public.

Shit is gonna get worse, but it already was going to.

This @justsecurity.org post on the illegality of Israel's attack on Iran by @adhaque.bsky.social is brilliant.

It dismantles the 2 arguments for Israel's position that have created the false appearance of a legal debate, where none is apposite.

Israel launched an illegal aggression.

As a long suffering Raiders fan, I absolutely agree

If you wanna try and help make a small difference at the moment, it will almost certainly help alleviate some feelings of helplessness. Mutual aid is important, and our communities are not necessarily just physical anymore

I'm remembering why I started disengaging from this site and social media in general right now. It conjures a defeatist attitude in me that just isn't helpful. By disconnecting, and being very particular in my news choices, I can still find the hope and anger necessary to do the work.

The Nashville school shooter manifesto includes links to 4 pubs published by the neo-Nazi network Terrorgram, which the State Department named as Specially Designated Global Terrorist last week

It also uses Terrorgram rhetoric, e.g. calling mass shooters "saints" channel2now.com/2025/01/22/a...

My gosh. Actual notice in advance. Ya girl will be there

👏 Fantastic BBC Wales documentary tonight following a brave undercover journalist infiltrating the vile Patriotic Alternative group.

Also includes a shout-out for @hopenothate.org.uk from a PA activist who lost his job at HMRC after we exposed his violent racism:

This is one of the most meticulously researched, culturally relevant, and entertaining books on extremism and weird esoteric fascism. It was hard to put down. Read it over a few days. Makes an excellent reference for our extremism archives.

The one useful thing about the death of Twitter (the first one, when we were testing out mastodon and all) is that it cured me of the habit.

Now I'm trying to relearn how to Social Media

Wrestling and Applebee's coming soon from S Hightower

Jim Stewartson skeet: "1566 days ago I started warning about QAnon, how it isn’t just a kooky internet game gone wrong, but a Russian-backed christofascist death cult with genocidal intentions — led by a psychopath with a pension and three stars. Despite all that, QAnon won. I tried."

One positive thing I can say about people like Jim Stewartson is that they unintentionally provide a great guide for identifying frauds and grifters in the wild. This is not the way actual experts talk. If you see this kind of egomaniacal opining, then chances are you're dealing with a crackpot.
