I loathe -- *loathe* -- whoever designed the Safari Zone in the original Pokemon games...

Kash Patel’s colleagues are alarmed by what they say is erratic behavior and excessive drinking, Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. More than two dozen people she spoke with described his management failures and conduct that could harm national security. theatln.tc/SS6krazR

the current leadership of the Republican party doesn't have a single religious bone in their bodies, and among their biggest grifts is somehow convincing the staunchest religious Christians to blindly vote for and support them anyway

Also, "woke" in the now-common white supremacist appropriated vernacular just means "I'm a bigoted and/or complacent piece of shit, and every reminder of the vastness of human diversity—up to and including simple basic acts of human decency—confront me with my moral failing, causing me to lash out."

FIFA should face a massive class action lawsuit over this. High prices are one thing - supply and demand and all - but this is actively misleading people about what they’re buying, in several orders of magnitude. www.nytimes.com/athletic/717...

nazis

This is the most horrifying, psychotic, grotesque message Trump has ever posted—openly threatening to commit genocide. This is beyond reckless. It’s dangerous, dehumanizing, and utterly unfit for any leader.

yet another disaster of an experience trying to buy a high-demand product online... when will human civilization figure this out? sheesh

the most stark example of his signature "move the goal posts to where they already were before he started fucking everything up for no reason" move yet

As the number of people in detention climb, so have the deaths: The 33 fatalities in 2025 were the most in a single year on record since the Department of Homeland Security started operating in March 2003. Reporting w/ Allison McCann and Emiliano Rodríguez Mega www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/u...

Something I’ve been working on since 2024! Super excited to finally reveal @charredpictures.com! variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Incredibly funny that the president of the United States can do this and retain command of the American Armed Forces, but I said it about a literal Nazi and got fired from a job writing superhero comics.

To recap: We need a fresh $200 billion and international assistance to win the war that we have already won and for which we need no assistance

Finally caught up on this ep, what a fun convo and so cool to learn about @caraellison.bsky.social’s really unique journey in the medium! @karriebear.bsky.social you should do more interviews, you’re great at it!

Iran “posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel & its powerful American lobby," says top counterterrorism official Joe Kent who resigned today, saying he couldn't support Trump's Iran war. www.latimes.com/world-nation...

Apparently now it’s not enough to pay for seat selection on a flight, you also gotta pay another $65 for an aisle or window. Get fucked if you’re a family who wants to sit together. Impossible to track all the hidden up charges these days which is of course what they want. I hate airlines.

New every thing in Formula 1 this year But Ferrari still shit at race strategy

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

snikt!

You are almost certainly not aware of the full extent of what the government is doing in Minneapolis, and what it portends for all of us if they succeed. lnk.thebulwark.com/46kVMuT

To paraphrase a friend: stay on the path, make good things. Indie has always flourished in the face of AAA distraction. Times are bad, but let others deskill, pivot to nonsense or chase impossible outcomes. People really like playing videogames. Suits forget that every 6 months or so.

Terrible news and my heart hurts for the folks at Bluepoint. Everything about this situation gives me major ick.

Here's @rickhasen.bsky.social detailing the scenario in which Trump uses search warrant to seize ballot boxes in a contested 2026 locale. This is more worrisome than ICE at the polls. Hasen also suggests ways to act against this now. It's harrowing stuff: newrepublic.com/article/2062...

It should be crystal clear to anyone with eyes and ears that Trump is DETERMINED to subvert free and fair elections in America. But in America, state and local governments run elections. So Trump can kick rocks. Still, ALL of Congress must be VIGILANT.

It makes you sound crazy to say this out loud, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States government has been effectively toppled by a group of overt pedophiles

Utterly disgraceful and inhumane to refer to 70,000 human lives lost as part of a "war" when they were pretty much entirely unarmed civilians who were never fighting and were just in fact wantonly murdered with reckless abandon. There is no other fitting word for this than "genocide."

it's amazing what happens when you get media-fluent millennials into public leadership positions. In some ways this is so simple and elementary, and yet its revolutionary in the space of public government.

Stealing money from the people. Again. While cutting the things your taxes all pay for. So that money can go into his pocket instead.

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT: Trump takes over the Kennedy Center, illegally slaps his name on it, and uses the venue to premiere a film about his wife—a film, directed by an accused rapist, that is a gift from the founder of Amazon, who wants to avoid regulation and is firing a fuckton of reporters.

this is completely insane and more people need to say that doing this is completely insane

Anyone who doesn’t think this is coming in blue states/cities across the country is a fool. The fascists are very clear that they are going to be deploying ANY means necessary to maintain power, crush dissent, and avoid any and all accountability. You are nowhere near mad enough yet.

People commenting on the novelty of having a public leader as communicative and engaged as this. This is what happens when you elect millennials into office who actually want to serve the public, and not old geezers trying to pad their pockets and play PR games. Maybe we should do more of that!

The gaslighting here is insane. There is no punishment strong enough for Bovino and his fascist cronies. None.

Murderous monsters

I understand why people dislike cops. But it's very important to recognize that ICE and DHS are not conducting themselves as cops. They are conducting themselves, at various moments, as an omnipresent secret police, and as a completely unaccountable invading army. Totally separate from policing.

this is really the vilest part. the way these people, caught trampling your rights, will hound you to the ends of the earth and beyond the grave. this womans crime was being married to someone the regime murdered. abrego garcia had the temerity to be mistakenly deported to a gulag. unforgivable sins

wow I am SO IN for this Bake-Off x NFL crossover

Finally trying Dispatch and wow this is GOOD!

🚨 The White House is now actively covering up a murder.

Make it viral.

Raju: The Speaker and others have said that this driver was weaponizing her vehicle. AOC: Their editorializing of this event to justify a public murder is disgusting. It is horrifying. Watch it for yourself and make that assessment for yourself on which of these leaders are lying to you.

It’s funny how #MetroidPrime4 just puts “Psychic” in front of all of Samus’ classic abilities.
