ICE arrested press tonight. They threw a tear gas canister into the press last week. This was not an accident. Release Steve Held.

Dr Ian Roberts was born in Brooklyn, NY. ICE took him and no one knows why. /

It's time again for GodotStream Thursday: www.twitch.tv/vested404 I play a different indie game made with Godot/GodotSteam every week. This week its The Short Trip store.steampowered.com/app/3305430/ by OcarinaGames Stream will start around 5:00 PST.

The MAHA anti-vax contingent is upset about the now infamous Tylenol announcement. Apparently the wrong kind of unhinged pseudoscience. They have standards! We’re gonna take a petty moment to enjoy this infighting. 🍿

For those in #Sinclair and #Nexstar markets.... #Boycott the advertisers!! After all, Disney got the message that way! There may be some you can’t, but there are some you can!

Does Trump think that if the government shuts down, they can't release the Epstein files?

Worth a watch if you haven't seen it. Now let's get Colbert put back on the air.

this was my first viral tweet 😭 Maybe this could happen here at bsky too? I'm making a brutalist Prince of Persia

How about Colbert?

I wonder if they got nervous about the number of people canceling their subscriptions.

Vaccines are safe. Vaccines are effective. They do not cause autism. They may cause allergic reactions, but we arent banning peanut butter and shellfish for allergic reactions. Vaccines are the one of the greatest medical inventions of our time. We're already seeing the results of anti-vax

Read Karen Hao. Read her now.

The clever response would be to get Jimmy Kimmel more followers on Truth Social than Donald Trump.

Top 1% of Americans have more wealth than the entire middle class now, in case you were wondering how cooked the country is

Another short video from playing Luminatory. This game is just so satisfying to play.

It's time again for GodotStream Thursday: www.twitch.tv/vested404 I play a different indie game made with Godot every week. This week I'm looking at Flocking Hell store.steampowered.com/app/3236280/ by @sextantstudios.bsky.social Stream will start around 5:00 PST.

I should be super clear here: If you're a White person and you tell people of color to worry less, I'm going to block you. You need to understand that, as we face a wave of White Supremacy-driven fascism, your opinion about how safe anything is not only means nothing to us but actively endangers us.

Hey Adobe, if your AI assistant actually did anything useful, you wouldn't have added it for free to PDF reader. Why not put THAT feature behind a paywall and let me rotate pdf pages for free?

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

It's worth pointing two things: (1) the current authoritarian regime is a serious threat to democracy and needs to be treated as such, (2) the current status is by no means worse than in the period of 1920 to 1950 in the United States. The victims today are the same victims then, and we can fight.

You don't want a new civil war. "Oh, another coward who wants us to work through the system! You just want the status quo!" If you prefer civil war to the status quo that tells me you have no concept whatsoever of what a war would look like or *what the new post-war status quo would be*

Silencing Jimmy Kimmel for political commentary is not cancel culture. It's not the right wing equivalent of boycotting movies where the person getting financial benefit from it's success is a serial sexual predator.

This is all he said.

"A republic, if you can keep it" -- Benjamin Franklin

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

Huh. Jimmy Kimmel went off the air BEFORE Colbert?

What you mean Chronically Online?

"Progressives started cancel culture." Socrates: My dear Crito, your enthusiasm's most valuable, provided it's of the right sort. But if it isn't, the greater it is, the more difficult it will be to deal with. We must therefore examine whether we should do what you advise or not. ...

Anyone circulating a master list of companies using Kirk comments as a pretext for firing? I know of Washington Post.

I'm old enough to remember a disease sweeping across the country killing millions of people. Maybe the anti-vax people in power want people to die.

BRO THAT HADES 2 ANIMATED TRAILER IS SO FUCKING SEXY HOLY SHIT

Support for Windows 10 is ending next month, making it a great time to switch to Linux! There's no need to throw away your old computer. If you primarily use your PC for social media, shopping, or banking, you can save money and help the environment. Which disto would you recommend? Mint or Ubuntu?

Not the clip of Pirro's inflammatory rhetoric I was looking for, but seems like a good time to remind everyone our current President was sued and found by a jury to have committed sexual assault.

*later* Fox News: No, not like that. Charlie Kirk was definitely right about one thing, the media pays a lot more attention when the victim is a white guy.

Fox News: How is our society turn out so many misunderstood homicidal young men? Also Fox News: We need to take up our guns against the enemies of democracy. It's almost like shouting "Fire!" in a crowded firing squad.

Anyone who knows me personally can attest that I sat them down and made them watch the first episode of this.

Another short of Luminatory from my last stream. Went and played some more of this gem.

Me watching the Democrats chase the Republicans right for the last 30 years.

Okay, but now they're just building a monument to gun violence.

You can acknowledge a cruel irony without enjoying cruelty. This will be used to justify targeted violence and oppression in the days to come.

It's scary that the rich can control us.

I'm gonna assume that anyone who has non-dischargeable student loan debt in excess of $40k would have a hard time getting a home loan. Especially with the FHA changes.

If there were a correlation between playing violent video games and mass shootings, there would be hourly mass shootings. Comparing the rate of increase just doom and cod players versus shootings over the last 30 years would show this. RFK Jr. is like derailing a passenger train to hide petty theft.
