Well this is a nice surprise.
And the material will be well treated by someone who has spent lots of time playing the games (BG3 and D&D in general).

it’s not surprising to learn afterwards Renee and Alex were good people, because they died doing something objectively good: protecting more vulnerable people from ICE, putting their white bodies on the line
but it’s soul-crushing that their morality needs to matter more than the shooter’s does

I'm really looking forward to hearing from the same people who have spent decades yelling about the Second Amendment that this shooting was somehow justified because the observer (allegedly) had a gun.
It turns out, it was never about *all* of our liberty.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

ICE is a paramilitary that summarily executes people who dare to protest against them. That is who they are. They cannot be reformed. Everyone who works for them at this point must face consequences.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

I hate that we live in a world where a woman's joy in her own appearance can be used against her with a few keystrokes and an overdeveloped sense of entitlement.
It's a cheap way for men to claim power they don't actually have and it makes me physically sick with rage.

We gave them the victories they’ve been asking for and they turned around and gave up as soon as it was convenient. The carrot days of the Democratic base are over. Time for the stick. They’re not afraid enough of us. We can fix that (with votes).
