🦉Collette Theoretically @ GDC 🦇

Thinking about one of the AI booths here that’s tagline is basically “make a game in minutes).

What are we doing here lads?

If I get sick from GDC again I am gonna crash out ngl

Glad I got to contribute to this and that it's being talked about.

Attendance HAS changed/is changing and curious to see what it'll look like by the end of he week.

Also: RIP Yerba Buena, it wasnt your fault.

Way to signal you want people to pay their way into all of this

"I know writers who use subtext and they're all cowards" - GDC probably when making this decision

Oh yeah I’ll also be at GDC kind of. I’ll actually show up if you hang out with me

Me looking at them: I know what you are

I love playing the game of I know you are going to a gamer con with me in an airport. It’s very easy

ICE has now purchased at least 1,639,595 sq feet of warehouses in Texas they plan to use as camps. One just 20 minutes from my house.

And that’s just two articles I’ve seen this week.

They are not changing course.

First-time protesters flood streets nationwide.

Not activists—ordinary people who've seen ICE murder their neighbors.

This movement doesn't ask permission. It demands: STOP FUNDING OUR KILLERS.

Senate Democrats: HOLD THE LINE! #ICEoffOurStreets

Many people are asking "why don't other politicians do this" and the answer is BECAUSE they don't want you to understand this shit and they want you to just trust they know what they're doing when they're secretly fuck you over. Look at the funding bill!

They murdered a VA nurse.

The kidnappings of Black, Latine, Indigenous, and Asian US citizens are not an accident. They are the leading edge of a wide-scale ethnic cleansing campaign with centuries-old roots that is intentionally targeting not just non-citizens but all people of color.

All. People. Of. Color.

Would love to speak to any regular international GDC attendees who are skipping this year's show (or were going to attend and have now cancelled) due to the current political climate. DMs here or luke@aftermath.site, thank you!

Cancel. Genuinely. Cancel. A rejection at the border is a permanent mark against entry, forever.

If you insist, follow dangerous territory protocols: know your embassy details, make sure someone knows your travel details, and have funds for emergency legal, health, and departure expenditures.

We could have paid teachers at any time.

We could have simply offered a dignified wage to do any of the work we need done at any time.

San Fransisco could be clean right now.

It was always a matter of political will.

LA COUNTY TO ICE: NOT HERE 📢

The county Board of Supervisors unanimously told their lawyers to draft an ordinance creating ICE-free zones.

Translation: Bars ICE from using county-owned property as staging areas, holding spaces, or processing sites.

Immigration Agents Terrified by ICE Backlash Leaked documents show Border Patrol needs volunteers for Minneapolis surge

Leaked documents about ICE deployment to Minneapolis suggests they're more worried about the backlash to Renee Good's death than they're letting on:

Text from a friend of mine: “[Other friend] was walking her dogs a block from her house in Silverlake and ice rolled up and took two gardeners They are going up in the hills and nabbing people. Warn your neighbors!”

“Two unmarked cars and another car with a fake business logo on it. She screamed shame on you and one of the masked demons said, ‘thank you’”

LOS ANGELES: ICE is prowling Silverlake & the hills

rightwingers always call women “too emotional” but renee good states she’s not mad in a calm voice while the agitated emotional ICE agent unloads his gun umprompted and calls her a “fucking bitch” after she’s dead

These are the people they are sending into our neighborhoods. Keep that in mind when they mention an "accidental" shooting.

I’m at Times Square, where an emergency “No War On Venezuela” protest just took to the street. Easily a thousand people here in real-feel 20°F weather.

“No more coups, no more wars, Venezuela’s not yours!”

“No boots on the ground no bombs in the air, U.S. out of everywhere!”

THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread

This thread is keeping track of misinformation circulating about the US' attack on Venezuela. A must read!
