Decolonization, Games, Indigenous Devs
I'll be speaking to more indigenous game devs tomorrow about making games that tell new stories. Here's last week's with Allen Turner of DePaul University:

US settler colonialism / gun rights
i've been reading An Indigenous People's History of the US, and it made a point i hadn't considered before: the second amendment and citizen militias were codified into law in order to create a legal cover for armed settler mobs to organize genocidal acts on the frontier. today, the second amendment folks, militia folks, NRA, etc are pushing to perpetuate the legal allowance for armed mobs to go to war with the "other"
the militia types are not "cosplaying" they are a codified part of settler colonialist power

@DissidentKitty I love that Kirby was like "anytime you feel like it, creeps" in response to harassment

a star war
Found this gif of the Star Wars cast being asked what their reaction is to the end of Episode IX, and I can't stop laughing at it!

me: i know, to avoid needing to critically analyse stuff, i'll watch kids shows
*puts on scooby doo*
every episode: capitalist A appropriates indigenous myth to coerce capitalist B. capitalist A gets arrested but only for being a public menace*, no indigenous people are ever featured (except maybe A's henchmen in redface)
* no really in one episode because it's all on private property nothing happens

Dairy milk alternatives and their impact on the planet ranked
This article has a clickbaity headline, which doesn't really fit with the message at the end, about switching from dairy to *anything* being the most important thing. But... good to know! I'll now try to lower my coconut and almond milk consumption, stick more with oat milk and maybe add in hazelnut! 🥛
@lj_writes@fandom.ink this was one of the few relaxing things at bootcamp: You have very limited stuff and everything has a designated place.
@lj_writes@fandom.ink can confirm, yes

On January 27 I read Latonya Pennington's "I Need a Spell"
https://www.argotmagazine.com/poetry-and-fiction/i-need-a-spell
The second to last stanza is just lovely:
"If fantasy
is the impossible
made possible
then may my imagination
be written in verse."

Shit, fuck, you got me conservatives. My environmental beliefs were all a hoax, a farce, im doing it to push an agenda.I only wanted you to stop polluting the oceans and institute better fish stock management practices so I can eat more sushi without feeling bad or worrying about mercury poisoning. You got me.

@CartoonBangover I've said it before and nobody ever gave me a solid argument against: anarchism may be cool in theory, but without higher-level organization, minorities will always be at the whims of the violent
when the only thing stopping violence against a minority is a vague moral obligation and some dudes that swore an oath on their own terms, I feel like there's little reason to believe it will turn in favor of the smaller group
pellets guy wants your ideas for future cursed food
@tinytoydragon@snouts.online @hyperlink this! But espresso, not this weak broth you get in the U.S.
