These will obviously be challenged and an injunction placed day one should they be passed, but they will keep trying. We need neighborhood watches at every poll to keep the gestapo away.

Dunno how I did this good, my color perception is usually pretty bad. But hey, happy to be an anomaly.

In my final year of University here at HU and I think I finally qualify! Was a long and rough road but I'm so happy to have chosen it. Here's to a long (hopefully secure) career!

I'm surprised some MAGA person hasn't tried to use that line to say "SEE? Jesus HATES the leftys!"

Agreed!

Marathon's beginner mode did cap how many teams were allowed in an instance, iirc. But then you can only drop there like twice before it disappears.

It's so weird that this is the current "thing" that is being hit on in the industry, given how specific a playerbase it requires.

The funniest part is that Carraway would have hated this because he thought everything he said was of utmost importance and needed to be as flowery as possible.

Cuba would be a thriving world leader had it not been for the over 60 years of jingoistic posturing and anti communism from the imperialist hellhole that is the US elite.

They should make Pacific Drive coop. That would be a fantastic spin on the genre.

I LOVE loot and scavenging games and I love shooters, but they occupy different brain spaces for me so with pvp I can't switch between them quick enough to save myself.

for reference, steam published ~20-21,000 games in 2025.

So about a quarter made over 100,000. About half of the remainder made less than 1,000.

That's still better than book publishing though!!

He is certainly worried about losing power (obviously), but doubting his own ability to be a king? Not the orange man, no way.

HEARTBREAKING: Someone you know wrote an article that sounds informative and interesting, but they chose to publish it on Substack - the Nazi Bar newsletter service - so you will never willingly read it.

The Democratic party is as unpopular as it is because its own voters find the party feckless and weak.

Yeah that's kind of what I figured. Ah well, plenty of other places out there.

I know that at some point Ill need to apply to TPC. I'd love to work for GameFreak but my Japanese is nowhere good enough.

Also it does look like TPC pays VERY well.

Fine's district has about 870k people in it. NYC has a population of almost 9 million. It is arguable that, were we to believe that people should be stripped of citizenship if they are unpopular, that Fine is more at risk than Mamdani.

Performative public lying is a hallmark of far right authoritarian parties

Also, he is what Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson told everyone Biden was. Their silence now is deafening. And damning.

The best part is Rubio is tolerated by the GOP elites but HATED by the average voters. Like, they make fun of Vance but they actively despise Rubio because he's a slimy flipflop.

I wonder if the innovation will be more waffles jokes or just more posting through being humiliated by their own userbase.

But I do get it, and I would never denigrate the new game because it confuses me or isn't what I wanted. It seems great! I might get it.

As a certified "Marathon (1994) was my first FPS game", I do wish we got more SP games in that universe. Especially because I adore Bungie's gunplay. And also I'm just confused as to who went "you know what this incredibly beloved single player shooter series needs? An extraction shooter."

Estimated cost of Trump's war: $1 billion PER DAY.

That's enough to pay for
- Medicaid for all 16 million people losing it because of Republican budget cuts
- AND daily food stamps for all 41 million people who rely on them

Imagine if we had a government put people over profit.

Move that decimal one place to the right and we have a stew cooking.

They're just so, so stupid.

I know it is a meme to talk about putting 'normal people' in charge, but at this point it is obvious whatever is happening now is far, FAR worse.

an alter of the magic the gathering card Heroic Intervention, a green card with the text "permanents you control gain hexproof and indestructible until end of turn" and the quote "Wherever the strong would harm the weak, I will be there." by the character Ajani Goldmane. The art for the card has been replaced by a real photo of a person in black clothing holding their arms out in a protective manner has horse-mounted police move aggressively toward protestors.

Had to hit the Ajani quote cause Spice would be doing the lion proud with this.

Someone who looks a lot like Spice, in all black standing arms outstretched holding a book (a bible) whilst police horses charge it. There's a crowd behind.

They didn't run it down & the line was held.

Outnumbered the fascists.

Police failed to break our line.

They got bundled into taxis & fucked off home.

Got a pic that goes crazy hard out of the whole equation.

Lovely Saturday, over all.
