EW.

Yeah, I've seen this kind of thing before. I swear, Bioshock really had libertarianism nailed down to a tee.

Morning, Assistants! IN ONE HOUR (!!!) WE'RE BLASTING OFF WITH OUR ANNUAL 24-HOUR MARATHON/SUBATHON/DONOTHON FOR SICK KIDS ALONGSIDE OUR #EXTRALIFE COMRADES! Subs matched and donated! Direct donations matched! #SKHealTheFuture #GameDay Twitch.tv/VTProfLynx

An amazing video essay by @jessiegender.bsky.social Mandatory viewing! youtu.be/XLjqNQB-SGw?...

Firing a rocket or scramjet-boosted shell out of a 16 inch naval gun to turn it into an anti-satellite weapon: apps.dtic.mil/sti/tr/pdf/A... Muzzle velocity is Mach 4.5, raised further until it can reach altitudes of 500-900 km, perhaps with the help of a 40g+ pop-up maneuver.

Just a reminder that @professorlynx.bsky.social is starting a 24/hour birthday stream... sooner or later. Tomorrow, I'll be joining him for some games, along with a lot of other great people, and all proceeds will be going to charity (as they alwasys do). Make sure to stop by, and donate if you can!

And how much of that development is being done through AI prompts?

I read this wrong the first time and was VERY confused.

Court denies Trump administration’s request to block order to fully fund SNAP as states begin issuing benefits

Sec. Noem posted a cringey AI video celebrating the supposed 1.6M self-deportees who took her $1,000 offer. Yet, in a statement to The New Republic, the DHS declined to say how many immigrants had used the CBP Home to self-deport, or how much money it had distributed in stipends. trib.al/PullOqE

Figures that the night before my marathon, my Steam account gets hacked.

10/10 take. No notes.

so proud of all the marginalised devs who have refused to shut up and be grateful. the fight for justice continues, all the stronger without "allies" who are anything but kotaku.com/game-awards-...

"Like slavery, like sexism, like racism, citizenship knows no justification once you leave the purview of those few whom it unduly privileges." AMEN, Dimitry Kochenov. Fuck passport apartheid.

A little under 22 hours until my 24h marathon/subathon/donothon stream!

Mercury's chaotic terrain features are not the result of planet-wide impact shockwaves but the much later evaporation of a volatile-rich underground layer, which created voids into which the surface collapsed: www.nature.com/articles/s41... There must have been impressive geysers 3.9GYa

VTuber says she can’t even watch her own Twitch streams due to UK law “I shouldn’t have to VPN my own content […] they know I’m of age as you have to send info when you onboard as a partner, even as an affiliate so none of this makes sense.”

This is ✨Senator Kim Pate✨ Canada's champion for Basic Income in Parliament She just gave one of the most iconic speeches ever - it's cheaper than poverty - encourages work and entrepreneurs - cuts crime and helps victims of abuse We break it down🧵

The evidence is in favour of basic income pro-freedom, pro-safety, pro-family, pro-entrepreneurship, pro-jobs, pro-market, pro-dignity That's what they'll learn

This is in-line with why I make a point not to take up any space in 2SLGBTQIA+ discourse. There are a lot of people who should be listened to because they live this life fully and authentically.

Of course he knows. He never didn't know. He's just lying. There's a tendency to attribute things Trump says or does to ignorance rather than malice that I think is misplaced. He -wants- to fuck over people for personal gain. He assumes he is winning by doing that.

Trump's short rant was riddled with lies. Everything is not “way down.” trib.al/flD3HYg Inflation is still going up, Americans saw the biggest grocery price jump in over three years, and a man who campaigned on affordability is now telling those very same people he doesn't "wanna hear about" it.

Nintendo has overreached with its attempts to patent basic gameplay mechanisms, which could damage key industry partners and risk Nintendo being "seen as unreliable or dishonest by patent authorities," says Rob Fahey. www.gamesindustry.biz/its-in-the-i...

Happy Friday, Assistants!

If you have a Tesla you should get rid of it immediately.

If you were a member of The Game Awards Future Class and can speak to your experience, I want to chat with you for The Guardian! DM me, or email alyssamerc[at]gmail[dot]com. Signal boost please!

fucking disgusting.

In an unsigned order on Thursday, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to require U.S. passports to list travelers' assigned sex at birth. Actress and activist Laverne Cox responds to the blatantly anti-trans policy.

“I'm such a real a** b*tch, Mehdi.” Actress and comedian Ilana Glazer joined @mehdirhasan.bsky.social on the latest episode of ‘We’re Not Kidding’ to share how she is not afraid to lose work over speaking out for Gaza. Watch the latest episode on zeteo.com: zeteo.com/p/ilana-glaz...

Not everyone has these settings but check if you do.

Ready girls?

I’m still trying to get over “colours but not really”.

Adding “Prolephobic” to my repertoire.

I feel like I try so hard to promote my ASMR content on here but I… I just can’t find my audience here. I don’t know how to reach listeners on here This is supposed to be where all the queer porn fans went. Am I just bad at this? I work so hard but it’s never enough, I’m not “sapphic” enough

This is a VERY mixed bag. I like some of what he's proposing, but offloading science research to private companies is a DISASTER... and that pales in comparison to the strong possibility of stopping NASA's critical climate change research.

truly we have arrived

it is necessary to invent Hell so that Elon Musk can be sent there
