A sassin' Creed.

the question isn’t whether greenland is strategically important. the question is whether the u.s. needs to own it to take advantage of that strategic importance, and the answer is very obviously “no”

If you have grey hair in your beard and you roll into a Magic: The Gathering event with a playmat showcasing the original Earthbind art, I feel like you're saying a lot about yourself.

Rogan has like 3 of these revelations a year but then he gets distracted by an AI video of a screaming black woman he thinks is real

Blue Prince is a Metroidvania.

the levels of corruption, grand and petty, that emerge from this are going to shock the conscience. I would make a very strong bet they're going to have targeted some people specifically to steal their property.

Yeah man all my friends in Minnesota are buying high viz vests and forming human chains at class dismissals because ICE is targeting and tear gassing schools. I wonder why parents would want information about that.

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.

and again--despite all the rhetoric about the us having an unstoppable military force relative to denmark, what this does is make the decision stark for the u.s.: if you do this, you have to commit to killing the troops of an ally

Like half of the support kent state had

rip in advance to Scott "Mr Dilbert" Adams who is perhaps most famous for writing a now-deleted four part blog post where he attempted to hypnotize his readers into nutting and asked them to email him after they have nutted to tell him about the nut. www.tumblr.com/manlethotlin...

Me, never quite out of my gremlin era: "What, you're not going to shout out God's Debris?"

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”

Never has a media apparatus been so deliberately ill equipped to meet the moment.

Today I was blessed by a street cat.

It’s easy to think that schools in Minneapolis are closed because the Feds murdered someone in the street but no, the actual reason is that while that was happening, the Feds were busy doing other heinous shit across the city like tear-gassing a school

this is your mission. roll up to this daycare in full tactical gear to harass some kids and teachers. when you get spooked by your own shadow like a panicked horse and start shooting your gun, our pedophile president will call the person you shot a terrorist. good luck soldier

I love to prerender a global shader.

It's an MTV simulator with almost 30,000 videos, organized by decade, with special sections for Headbanger's Ball and Yo! MTV Raps. This is so good.

"did you try to bribe the president of the united states by giving him your nobel peace prize so he will declare that you are in charge of venezuela after abducting its leader by military force" is just a thing that someone can be asked in an interview now and we all have to deal with that

Finally, a cosmetic that lets my ogryn go fully tits-out. I love this look for you, Tugboat.

Incredibly funny that this is the closest Matty Yglesias will ever get to admitting he was wrong about American empire. “Looks like that leftist was right. Like a fucking IDIOT”

Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine. We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

How it's going.

The Trump administration says it arrested 4,500 people in a mission targeting “the worst of the worst.” The reality is most of them were people with brown skin who were at the right place —their landscaping jobs, the hardware store, a Dunkin’ Donuts drive-thru— at the wrong time.

Merry D.C. Christmas. youtu.be/DB2oCsvVWe8?...

It's 2:30 AM on Christmas Eve and I'm thinking again about that time Kickstarter was going to go "on the blockchain" and everyone was like "what do you mean by that" and we never found out because nobody mentioned it again.

I'm glad the CBS reporters were able to successfully smuggle their story out of the country.

Will note: this is probably the direct result of workshy Bari Weiss waiting until Friday before a Sunday air date to spike the story. International rebroadcasters probably get the recordings early to vet locally and run through local standards and practices. She forgot and no one told her :)

FWIW, Larian isn't alone in this sort of thing. The application-to-hiring gauntlet should not take six months, but a number of studios do this because they know there's a pool of candidates that will jump through the endless hoops and swim the oceans of stress to get to the finish line.

larians recruitment process features prominently in this:

Hypothesis: Every song that was on the Rock Band setlist is a guaranteed hit at the karaoke bar.

Yeah, I can see how that might hurt him.

I'm still thinking about the absolutely wild intro to this LeBron fancam I found last night
