  1. So the #USAnians sent a "special envoy" to Greenland.

    This is a #diplomatic faux pas to start with - #Greenland is an autonomous division of the #Danish kingdom, and so all diplomatic actions should (at least to start) be done by approaching Denmark, through the USA ambassador to Denmark. Bypassing that is Not Done. Extremely rude. Like, "drop your trousers and shit on the floor in front of the queen" #rude.

    So that's bad enough.

    But the *reason* for the envoy is to try to convince Greenland to #separate from #Denmark, and join the #USA. i.e. it's just another extension of the "We'll take Greenland" #bullshit the #insane #orange mental-defect-in-diapers was pushing a while back. This is, from a diplomatic standpoint, unspeakably rude. Unimaginably so. Simply unfathomable, except for the fact that the USA *elected* that #fascist #asshole to behave this way.

    So the normal diplomatic response would be for the Danish PM to summon the USA #ambassador, and ask him for an explanation, and the ambassador would be expected to provide an #apology to some degree.

    But given Trump's penchant for appointing his kind of c*cksuckers as ambassadors, and zero respect for any kind of #behavioural standards, the appropriate response here would be for the Danish PM to summon the USA ambassador, and then #stab him in the #face.

  2. Heavy Metal Geomatrix with Billy

    Welcome back, comic crusaders and digital daredevils! This week on Play Comics, we’re diving into the gloriously chaotic world of Heavy Metal: Geomatrix for the Sega Dreamcast—a game that asks, “What if Heavy Metal magazine became a button-mashing arena brawler with enough explosions to make Michael Bay jealous?” Released by Capcom in 2001 and featuring the wild art of Simon Bisley, this four-player deathmatch extravaganza throws you into a 23rd-century future where VR-addicted humanity battles it out in submerged cities, all while capturing the magazine’s signature blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and “did my mom just see that?” moments.

    Joining us for this high-octane journey through neo-cyberspace mayhem is none other than our beloved returning guest Billy – yes, the same mysterious internet hermit who graced us with his presence during our previous mecha-focused episodes covering Gundam Battle Assault 2 and Gundam Wing: Endless Duel. Billy’s back to help us navigate the testosterone-fueled battlegrounds of teams like the 818 Stompers, 991 Elite, 707 Metal Heads, and 323 Agents, because apparently in the future, gang names are just random numbers followed by edgy nouns.

    So grab your favorite energy drink, prepare your best robot voice impressions, and settle in for another episode where we discover if this Dreamcast gem was a faithful adaptation or just an excuse to watch scantily-clad warriors duke it out with bazookas and laser swords in the name of preserving humanity. With Billy’s expert commentary on all things giant robot-adjacent, this promises to be more entertaining than watching someone try to explain the plot of Heavy Metal magazine to their grandmother!

    Learn such things as:

    • Can nano-technology make terrible character names sound cooler?
    • Is it possible to have too many weapons in one arena, or is that just quitter talk?
    • How many metal bands does it take to make a video game soundtrack truly “heavy”?
    • And so much more!

    You can find Billy nowhere online because he’s a hermit who hides out in those secret places of the internet that only we know about.

  5. CW: Cw: description of extreme transphobic violence leading to death.

    #BriannaGhey was found by a pair of dog-walkers, a married couple, who discovered her with 28 #stab #wounds, predominantly on her #head, #neck, and #back, and defensive #injuries on her #hands and #wrists.

    The #MedicalExaminer said great force was used in the stabbing, breaking multiple ribs and bones in her wrists. (1/2)
