So, I’ve been playing the first few Resident Evil games (1, 2, and 3) and for a city called Raccoon City, there is a distinctive lack of raccoons.

I don’t know why, but apparently the hand dryers at my school don’t like me. I have to try like, 50 times for it to start.

Todays the day!!!

Take one and pass it on

I will be the first person, I think, to ever admit that I don’t know how to play monopoly, and that I don’t understand the huge thing about it. If anyone would like to enlighten me that’s fine but I have no idea what the hell monopoly is as a game.

The only reason I continue my charade of knowing what the hell monopoly is is because I keep seeing jokes that I don’t understand but seeing how many people do get them makes me nervous.

Overall, I just don’t fucking know what monopoly is.

The main bundle has 69 (heh) games for $60. The sister bundle has 66 games for $10.

The sale runs Feb 10-24, 2023

Edited to add: the three games discluded from the $10 bundle are:

  1. YOU ARE A WIZARD
  2. Our Minerva, and
  3. TOMBS: Toot on my balls skeleton

People/Steamers crying about getting shit over buying and playing hogwarts legacy vs trans people dealing with politicians and pundits calling for their genocide and being kind of understandably furious at streamers for enabling JK Rowling’s anti semitism and transphobia in the midst of fascists using any means to get legitimacy to kill lgbt people.

Edit: Free Terf and fascist blocklist in the notes. Turned off reblogs due to bad fucking takes and increasing hostility, and my own personal frustration. This was over trans people facing hate and Streamers and people drawing attention to the fact they are playing a video game with an author is against them and getting pushback for it, they are not comparable things. Some people were also using it for transphobic propaganda. Fuck that.

Edit Edit: I am cis. I have turned off reblogs, and presumably will not have to hear anything else about harry potter unless I choose to. I am choosing not to engage with it. The same way with how streamers could choose not to engage with it. This? This is the whole fucking point of the post. I’m not trans, I don’t have to argue my rights to anyone. Trans people do. It was a basic, human thing, to not play one bad fucking wizard game. If you try to wiggle your way out of it or argue, you’re an asshole.

Edit Edit Edit: Reblogs Back on. Fuck it. Go ahead and take your mask off if you want to miss the point or be an asshole. Love the Rest of yall

CW: antisemitism, pale of settlement, pogroms, genocide, cultural erasure

I don't think goyim can really conceive of how much Jews actually hold back in our criticism of antisemitism in media, and when you hear us it is often because we see a dangerous message that you don't... Yet.

I have a complicated relationship with Tim Burton's rendition of The Corpse Bride. I love it as a beautiful piece of stop motion art, but it isn't what it should have been, he took a Jewish story from the Pale and with intention stripped it of its Jewish origins. This alone is incredibly antisemitic. The criticism you will hear has probably been "this is a Jewish story, it should have retained its Jewish elements" but have you heard why we feel strongly about this story?

The story of the corpse bride is incredibly important to me and was born from Jewish trauma and Christian violence. Mobs would routinely attack Jewish weddings, they would murder brides and they would bury them in unmarked graves by the roadside still in their wedding clothes, they reasoned that without Jewish wives there are no Jewish mother's. Jews are intrinsic to the story.

It is antisemitism to take our story, about our pain, at the hands of non-jews and strip it for "useful" parts, in fact it is heartbreaking every time.

We are often forced to pick our battles and fighting a battle over a movie that has already been released by a director with a cult following is not worth it, you only hear us speak up in numbers when the antisemitism may lead to another century of violence, because raising our voice means picking a fight, because so many of you already see our pain as inconvenient and it is exhausting to never be heard.

-anyone can reblog

I myself am not Jewish, nor have I seen the movie of the Corpse Bride. But I do know the story of it, I apologize and am appalled at what was done to so many stories.

My personal beliefs are that stories are everything, and with ought our stories we become nothing. I did not know of the butchering of this tale and I apologize greatly to the Jewish community for everything that has been done.

Thank you for sharing this information with me, I did not know this and now I do.
