Alba Rose @revolvyerom.bsky.social Counterpoint: No ethical consumption under capitalism, make that $ from art (quoted post) R/L Monroe @mortalityplays.bsky.social every time I learn some leftist artist still maintains a twitter presence I lose a degree of respect for their integrity. and yeah I know I know "but my audience is there, but I have to make money". yes that's the faustian pact you're in, the one I'm reacting to. my disgust is what that income buys.
New analysis [1] released today by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) indicates that UK food prices are on track to be 50% higher by November 2026 compared to levels at the start of the cost-of-living crisis in mid-2021. This would suggest that the amount of price growth seen in the nearly 20 years prior to the crisis would be achieved in just over 5 years - almost quadrupling the pace of food inflation.

Painterly Plains cover image, showing sample maps
Four versions of the same map created with the Painterly Plains pack. One depicts a simple forest road in summer, one in spring, one in winter, and one in a red and black hellish environment. Text reads: Switch hues to quickly adapt the look and feel of a map without redrawing terrain! (these are all the same map, drawn only using the dirt, grass and foliage terrain tools from this pack! Default Dungeondraft assets and lighting overlaid for illustration.)
Twelve sets of swatches showcasing the palette range of the materials included. Text reads: 66 Grass options 66 Sand options 66 Dirt options 66 Stone options 66 Foliage options 66 Pebble options 2 Paving textures 132 Paving options 2 Rock textures 132 Rock options 2 Tile textures 132 Tile options

Three sticker (or flyer) designs, ready to decorate your local bar or rabble-rouse in public bathrooms. Design 1: A classic bathroom silhouette icon, wearing a dress on its left side, trousers on the right, and a balaclava over its head. Text reads “DANGER: Subversive pisser in this area” Design 2: Cross-stitch text in blue, purple and pink reads “Trans, Cis. Intersex, Non-binary – we’d all rather piss at home”. Corners are decorated with traditional floral elements. Design 3: Black and yellow hazard borders and a yellow warning triangle accompany the text “Genital surveillance in effect in this area”. Beneath it, smaller text reads “Nobody is safe until we are all safe. Protect your trans siblings.”
A vertical illustration of a pastel toned tiger looking over its shoulder at the viewer, beneath a stylised sun and a ring of pale flowers. Balanced negative space on both sides of the image make it suitable to frame as a centred print, or to trim down for use as a bookmark.
A bright red tiefling grins at the viewer, with his head cocked at an angle. In the foreground his claws toy with a switchblade. He has long tangled black hair, horns and eyes that glow like hot coals, and a vivid scar on his cheek.
UNDERTALE felt like games drawn on paper with siblings at grandma's house after lights out. It reminded me how big and small a story can be, and still fit everything inside it.
Panel 1: two people clasp hands across an outdoor cafe table. person two says "I'm sorry. I just don't see a future for us any more." Person one says "No...please" Panel 2: person two is walking away sadly while person one pleads "You can't do this to me... not like this... not now..." Person two says "I'm sorry." Panel 3: pedestrians stare as person one pedals past in the rear seat of a tandem, alone, tears streaming behind them
An incomprehensible table labeled 'Character Race Table II: Class Level Limitations' that I am not smart enough to describe or transcribe except that there are a lot of numbers, parentheses and footnotes.

Tweet by Adam Shaftoe @AdamShaftoe Soooooo I have been writing reviews for about ten years. My wife's review of Alien puts everything I have ever written to shame. "Alien is a movie where nobody listens to the smart woman, and then they all die except for the smart woman and her cat. Four stars."
