Aside from this I think there is a cultural undercurrent, at least among the lay American, where blood and soil nationalisms have largely become an increasingly dominant sociopolitical paradigm for how the world “naturally” “works,” and that’s one of the elements that fuel this shit.

And a big part of why THAT ignorance is pervasive is because the groupthink shouts down any attempt by Jews, INCLUDING anti-Zionists - to discuss these topics and effectively silences us through brigading and harassment. So our voices are never heard, which means there’s no way to educate on it.

It’s unfortunately because these events are reinforcing pre-existing antisemitic beliefs they already had about Jews. So refusing to separate Israel and Judaism is a shield for finally being open about their true beliefs. That Jews are evil. And now they can say it out loud and society will clap.

will i am announces "The Thing That Kills You."

It’s important to keep the sacred texts available at a moment’s notice

You know, you'd think that capitalism killing 300,000 children just in one isolated incident from recent months would at least make someone think a little bit

"These young people don't get it. Only us, the generation most influenced by anti-communist rhetoric, are objectively correct about this." I don't even buy the line that the propaganda was 100% false every time, but these folks aren't recognizing any more nuance than the people they're ridiculing.

Whenever this shit happens my brain just goes back to the Blessed Homeland/Barbarous Wastes comic

You have not named a single thing that is not happening in the capitalist United States literally today.

You’re just describing capitalism

thank god we don't have to deal with any of that stuff, eh? phew!

this is an especially funny list of things to cite as negatives of communism at this particular moment in time

they put the fucking thing in the constitution, that’s how important the postal service is, but you never see the We Revere The Founders types mention that bit

it is the postal SERVICE not the postal BUSINESS thank you for your time

This is the best Anniversary logo anyone has ever created

@greatdismal.bsky.social As someone whose social media use started with web forums, it reminds me how a lot of folks do not realize the degree to which they didn’t build an alternative to Twitter: they built a *treehouse forum* for Twitter, with every social dynamic that implies.

There's embarrassing a man and then there's embarrassing a man in front of Zendaya

if you missed me talking about it- i have to wear an eyepatch on stream for the forseable future. As cosmically impossible as this is to believe, its not a bit, not sure what's going on with my eye, but having it checked out. Streaming and video making will continue as per usual

my life has never felt more like a weird joke

A bit rough, but I tried to Toby-fy the Tem song

Great dude.

Trump and the conservative movement are the gravest threat to our first amendment rights in our nation's history

Gamergate's original message was 'Stop forcing your diversity into our games!' which was obviously terrible, but this new wave's modus operandi is buying games by or about black people so they can leave a shitty hate-dogwhistle review and refund it. They've traded the masks for pointy white hoods.

i hope they let grace RE9 be in mercenaries and she's doing all the sick combos and moves but screaming and crying and having a complete meltdown the entire time

We need to move beyond, "Look at this idiot" and directly to "Look at the assholes keeping him in power." The rot is deep.

None of this is funny. Just a total embarrassment. It feels like every day he's the president the stakes become more existential. That no Republican will even talk about impeachment or the 25th Amendment is a damning indictment and proof that none of them are fit for office.

Guess that how to do politics the Hitler Way book she endorsed a decade ago didnt cover incidents like this

why u so ears

doing it solely out of deliberate malice

Man. They really pulled it off, huh.

This is a good time to remember that immigration judges aren’t real judges. They work for DOJ as part of the executive branch (under Bondi and Trump) and the fact that we call them judges like they’re independent arbiters would be laughable in a free and fair country.

Shout out to all the guys with charts who told me there was no way we were undercounting while I watched nursing homes and hospitals refuse to test and send my friends’ elderly relatives home to die of “respiratory illness” to keep their official numbers down.

Don't forget this classic interview with co-writer Roger Avary, who shared an impression of what it was like working with Gans and his reason for the all-female cast in the first draft of the film: www.silenthillmemories.net/creators/int...

THIS SOUNDS LIKE A JOKE BUT IT'S TRUE. IT'S VERY STRANGE.

again, i have to reiterate, this decision wasnt made as some sort of early 2000s feminism, it very much was and still is misogynism and to paint as anything else other than that is stupid and dangerous

Silent Hill is a feminist series, the first game is about Alessa, the second is about Mary. Gans does not understand that at all.

Not only that, the film turns Alessa, the story's hero and main character whose self-sacrifice is the cornerstone of the plot about a girl's bodily autonomy, and turns her into a creepy girl who makes a deal with the Christian devil to fill a town with monsters for revenge.

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

OOF. I just noticed that mecha extraction shooter Synduality is 95% off right now. Did a lot of the big stuff Arc Raiders did, but earlier. But not better. I reviewed it at launch and it was threadbare. But they seem to have added a lot since? They have promised an offline mode if the servers die.
