Holy fucking shit this is awesome use this now cybernews.com/security/dev...

I'm always baffled by the "I'll ONLY read old fantasy" crowd. You know there are LIVING authors doing really cool stuff, right? Like, LOTS of them? And we could get MORE if more people bought their stuff?

for 4X, Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri has a very good claim to the throne on the RPG side, Planescape Torment still has a real claim to best written RPG of all time (though gameplay-wise it does not hold up at all) - I’d give it to Disco Elysium but it’s probably one of the two

Also did you know that K-pop Demon Hunters is the most viewed movie of all time on Netflix? And it's not close. That's wild.

yes that is what happens when an ss guard chokes someone to death now watch them deport the witnesses or they turn up missing or dead and nothing happens

Many of us spend our daily lives trying to find safe places to pee. I hope these perambulating dumpsters never find a welcoming restroom.

(Content warning: ICE violence) At around 1:40 this afternoon, I witnessed federal agents with ICE and CBP arresting a US citizen after hitting her car from behind, and then kneeling on the head of a legal observer in the snow, preventing breathing and bloodying their face.

If the AI bubble is really about to burst, I really hope people think about how easy it was to be made to think they had to go along w/ something that didn’t work as advertised, harmed people & the environment, & was doomed to fail anyway How many people were convinced to say “AI is here to stay”

1/6 Jim Thompson wrote a lot and he often wrote quickly. Because of this, his prose isn’t always perfect—but when he hits a line just right, it’s poetry as bright as blood and as hard as concrete.

crazy that the website that I randomly decided to put together at 10AM yesterday has had over 25k unique visitors in 24 hours. please keep sharing with your networks.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

pepper spraying someone in the face from inches away while they are already restrained on the ground should get you fired and land you in jail, no exceptions

This is insane. Insane that it's happening. Insane that these good folks need to do it in the first place. And insane that no one in power is helping them one iota.

This is what you get for using UPSPSPSPSPSPSPS

I have friends who were kettled, arrested and held overnight by Toronto Police during the G20 protests while they were merely heading to their homes so if you think any Canadian wants to travel to the US right now...? HARD PASS.

I talk about it a lot, but car dependency and car-centric infrastructure also serve as barriers to protest. Unlike European cities, the U.S. has fewer car-free spaces in which to protest, large roadways restrict mass gathering places, and we also see vehicles wielded as weapons to attack protesters.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

KEEP CALLING YOUR REPS

you don’t usually see a shot/chaser in one post but i applaud the efficiency

June Jordan and Audre Lorde stopped speaking to each other Claudia Jordan called a lot of her white comrades a whole bag of bitches because they were racist twats Trotsky and Lenin duked it out And the founding fathers tussled so often we have MULTIPLE musicals

Fuck off, Oz. No, you’re not a Dr to me. One more year? Seriously, Oprah, you unleashed this quack dickhead on us. Do you have anything to say now? An apology would be appreciated.

"America" is forty billionaires and twenty racists in their service doing everything they can to own the world. AMERICANS are a collection of the doggedly oppressed and the happily oppressed as different as any other oppressed population. 30% of us have been trying for centuries.

When Trump dies we get Vance. Thiel’s pet. They'll blame a lot of stuff on Trump AND try to fast-track an even uglier white supremacist techno-Christofascism. We must prept for this now & organize accordingly. Grassroots activism, coalitions. Dissent. Sand in gears. Strikes. Every angle.

Scientific research of gender transition has been stuck on "should these people be allowed to transition" for 50 years, so we don't know shit about how transitioning actually works.

If Europe found a way for him to save face and move on, great. But Carney's speech was still spoken and was still true. The bell has rung.

Hand it to the people who demanded that he do this

it's just hilariously egotistical behavior to think being american paints a target on your back abroad (once again, excluding zones like portions of literal Iraq). it also says some really weird shit about how you normalize the treatment of foreign visitors here

Them: America sucks! Me: No argument here. Them: Trump sucks! Me: Preach! Them: You suck! Me: Can't say I disagree there, either. Glad we're on the same page.

You love to see it. cybernews.com/security/dev...

'Why aren't they in the streets' is answered almost every day in my small town by people in the streets! Rather than asking 'why aren't they in the streets' it's worth asking 'why isn't your media showing them in the streets' and 'who is served by downplaying resistane in its myriad forms.'

Mafia goon: Nice house you got here...it'd be a shame if something happened to it Media outlets: Mafia goon rules out use of force. Expresses regret at the mere thought of it

I had some help, to be fair. artists.spotify.com/blog/how-lin...

Again, yall are really showing you've never dealt with abusive personalities. They ALWAYS start with, "I won't hurt you if you just do what I say" and then find reasons to hurt you anyways.

This is a global far right power grab, so the sooner everybody realizes that and puts aside their deeply outdated notions around national identity, which got us here to begin with, the better. The only way out is through, but the only way through is all of us fighting these climate warlords together

man could we please stop with the ignorant “Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark, so the people who live there must be white” takes? 89.51% of Greenland’s population are Greenlandic Inuit.

"He can stay, he can go. He can be impeached or voted out. But removing Trump will not remove the infrastructure of an entire party that embraced him; the dark money that funded him, online radicalization that drummed his army; nor the racism he amplified and reanimated." -Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Let tonight be a lesson to all of us: Make sure you have established your own, and are aware of your loved ones', advance directives. Do you want to be awakened from your slumber when It Happens? Or do you want to find out when you awake naturally and unlock your phone? Let your loved ones know.

live your life such that millions of people don’t drop everything they’re doing to collectively hope that It Happened at the slimmest of signs

That insane bus thread ended up on national news and "live skeeted" is the official term used

Pay zero attention to the labelling system on this website. This post has been labelled as "rude".

These whistle heroes have sent us THOUSANDS of whistles for free over the last 7 weeks.

wow just woke up from a nap, i guess everyone else on Air Force One realized we aren't going to the right place

Another element is that even Jews who scraped together the cash and documents to flee were often refused entry by ‘safe’ nations, including the USA and U.K. A lot of Americans are not eligible for foreign long term visas.

Telling me that I personally am at fault for what that shitheel president is doing is certainly your right but also he'd euthanize me if possible as a queer autistic so maybe understand He is the windshield, I am the bug.

When ICE agents realize the person they're holding is a US citizen, they push that person out the door of the building without their belongings, often including their coat. Temperatures are well below freezing. Part of what we do as volunteer medics is find these people and get them somewhere warm.

Important perspective from Greenland.

completely unironically, this is how we'll know

“may your grandkids race to change their names” is actually an incredible curse we should all start adding to our repertoire it’s gonna be true of a lot of these people
