The FCC wants to kill burner phones by forcing telecoms to verify every customer’s government ID. Sold as “anti‑fraud,” but it kills anonymity. Burner phones? Gone. Anonymous calls? Gone. Surveillance expands. Freedom shrinks.

We can no longer count on the internet to be a permanent digital archive. Governments are disappearing information from their websites, authors are seeing their life’s works deleted. Netflix has three movies from before 1970. It is time to invest in physical media.

every “traditional” social norm was invented by advertisers in 1957 and every “newfangled social phenomenon” has been around for 3000 years

Hey. I made something that I’m very proud of and humbly ask for your support and sharing. This absolutely **free ** 100 page tabletop game for the #lifeisstrange series was a labor of love and hopefully provides you and your table with a few hours of mystery and deep feelings. 🦋
TWO MOONS RISING, a new #LifeIsStrange Double Exposure-inspired TTRPG adventure by Hunters Entertainment's @eatenbypotchky, is now available on @DriveThruRPG! Get it here: drivethrurpg.com/en/product/…

Definitely the biggest thing I hate about Twitter right now is how many people literally post to get people to hate them for engagement and normal people eat that slop up to say how bad they are and push it right into my feed

There was a time when Twitter was useful and a nice way to socialize with friends, or even meet new people. But I 've been feeling it's just not a great experience for a while. I'm considering deleting soon

New Kickstarter just launched where I edited the video and made the animation! I think it came out really well.

UPDATE: After an enormous outcry, Cigna has reversed their unconscionable last-minute denial and will be covering Carole's transplant (!!). Carole is extremely relieved, and she's grateful to the many, many people who emailed Cigna over the past 24 hours. Having said that...
A thread about our depraved healthcare system, and a plea. In 2021, my friend Carole was diagnosed with terminal stage four cancer. A single parent with two kids, she had just turned 43. In 2017, she had watched her brother Chris die of the same cancer. He too was in his 40s.

Alan Moore making Rorschach’s mask a picture of two guys having sex remains one of the boldest design choices in comic book history

We don’t bear any of the risk? I did a sitcom for NBC 20 years ago. We had an 11-episode pick-up. We shot 5; I got paid for 5. For the next six months I couldn’t take any other work. Tptb aired two episodes and then cancelled the series. Almost lost my house. That’s risk.
AMPTP on revenue sharing pitch from SAG-AFTRA ● The Union is proposing that performers share in the rewards of a successful show, without bearing any of the risk. Under the Union’s proposal, performers would be entitled to receive not only the existing fixed residual – which is paid to the performer even if no one is watching the program – but also a new residual which “shares” in revenue that is somehow attributed to the show. The Union proposes to “share” in success, but not in failure. That is not sharing. ● Further, the Union’s proposal does not “follow the money.” It seeks revenue generated by a streaming service, but that is not money that the Producer of a program is entitled to receive. The Producer of a program gets a license fee from the streaming service. That’s it. The Producer does not share in the subscription revenue that the streaming service generates, so it is completely illogical to ask the Producer to pay based upon that revenue.
